Minutes after running non stop I arrive at home , there are alot of lights outside , sirens still making noise , and many people too including neighbours I guess, the moment the police see me , they run with the cuffs and put on me .

Damnit!! Just how many times am I gonna be tied this things and everytime it's the same reason , "Harper "

My mom runs trying to stop the police that are drugging me to their cars , I told mom a thousand times that staying in this town will only cause trouble but she doesn't listen , saying how much she wants me and Harper to be together because we love each other , but look what happens ?

Am so quiet, my mind wondering just where Harper could be now , is she in danger ? Is she alive ? Just who could have kidnapped her , or maybe it's max ?

Am really going crazy, and this people won't believe me if I say I don't know where she is !

When we arrive at the police station, they take me in the interrogation room . They force me to sit down.

" Instead of wasting your time on me , shouldn't you be looking for her ? I don't know where she is ! She could be in danger!"

One police holds my jacket at the neck pulling me forward. " If I hear you talking again without being asked to , God knows what I'll do to you , do you understand me?!"

" yes . "

They ask me the same questions and I give them the same answers everytime, that I don't know Harper's whereabouts. I accept it that I was with her but she went home with a taxi , they ask me the number plate of the taxi and I have no idea , I dont even remember the colour!

One of them takes the phone and dials a number, after the other person picking up , he talks .

" Yes , we have him here with us.. and he says he doesn't know her whereabouts. "

Then I hear unmistakable voice , " That boy has bothered me so much with my daughter! She doesn't even want him but he kept following her around! I can assure you that he was planning to run away with her and am sure he knows where she is , do whatever you will do to find  my daughter.  Do whatever you will to him so that he speaks up even if it's beating him up , I don't know , I want my daughter by tomorrow. It's just because we're  far away I would have mAde him speak up!" She hungs up.

She's the devil herself!!

If she wasn't that far I would have thought that she's the one who kidnapped her own daughter  and hid her just to make me suffer.

Well , am suffering just the way she wants , they've done every possible pain giving thing to me but my answer is still the same . ' I don't know her whereabouts and they shouldn't be wasting time on me and look for her! '

They might think that they are hurting me but the pain in my heart doesn't match the physical one , I can even feel the blood oozing out but I can't feel the pain , the only pain that am feeling is from my heart!

******

" Wake up!! " I hear from a far someone shouting. I open my eyes weakly and when I try to lift my head it throbs to the extent of exploding.

I look around and I think am in a room that looks like a cell , but am alone except for the police that is shouting at me .

When did I get here? I think I might have passed out in the middle of their beatings and they drugged me here .

There's a wound on my upper arm that it's still fresh and as I said I don't feel any physical pain .

But my body feels extremely weak .

I stand up according to his command and he leads me to another room , where I find Max sitting there probably  waiting for me.

Right now the hate I felt for him disappears , I want to beg him to let us join together and look for the girl we both care about and love so much.

I sit weakly , barely straight.

" So you rather receive this pain than telling  where you've hidden her ? Let me tell you... they wont leave you alone unless you say where she is !" He's barely looking at me and I can guess how I look , on my face .

" How can I say something I dont know ? Max.. I love her , yes .. I was with her that evening, yes .. but she left . I don't know where she is , she could be in danger, she could be suffering somewhere and everyone's attention is on me . She needs someone to rescue her ..." Just thinking about where she could be my heart aches so much that I start crying.

Max is trying to control his emotions but I can see that he's feeling something and might be taking my side. After all he's not an idiot I thought he was .

" Then where do you think she could be ?" He asks looking more worried than he got here.

" I don't know , I can't think ,  but think of it , if I had her why would I have returned home and hand myself to the police knowing that this is exactly what they are going to do to me?!"
" Stop crying you old man , I'll try and find help maybe from my parents , my dad is a judge he could help get you out , that's if you're innocent, meanwhile he'll stop the interrogation ." He says emotionally.

" Thanks so much mehn for believing me , I won't forget this ."
" No problem. " he says leaving .
" wait ! But am worried about one thing . "
" what?!"
" will your dad really accept to help me , I mean your family and her family are friends, they are the one who have put me here . "
" well , my dad doesn't like especially Harper's mom, it's only my mom that insists  on the friendship, so I doubt he'll refuse . Just relax , leave it to me. "

Turns out he has a soft heart like a new born baby's .
