I was startled awake by a huge bang on my door. I groaned, dragging myself off the bed to answer whoever was trying to
drag my door down."What the f*ck! " I swore when the door missed my face with barely a few inches had it not being my quick reflexes.
Amanda stared at me with flushed cheeks and apprehension. "S-she's go-gone" She stuttered pointing at a door.
I raised a brow at her attitude. "Whoah slow down, who's gone?"
Amanda took a deep breath, this time her words making sense. "The lady of the house is gone" She announced and once my brain figured out everything, I froze and felt a terrible chill travel down my spine.
Oh no.
I ran like crazy down the stairs leading to Izzy's room and yanked the door open where I was treated to an empty bed. Her
bed was laid neatly as if nobody slept in it at all and I felt my heart crumble into pieces. What have she gotten herself into this time?"What about the security cameras?" I asked once I noticed Amanda beside me.
"No clues, she avoided all of the
cameras perfectly"Great! How did I forget I had such a great genius under my care?
Something made sense at once and I turned to ask Amanda. "Yesterday, did Izzy ask you any unusual question or was she behaving strangely? I know you've not being around her enough to study her behavior but was she behaving weird?
Like out of this world?"Amanda nodded negativity but stopped midway entering thinking mode. After a while of intense concentration she
exclaimed. "Yes! You are quite right""What do you remember?"
"Yesterday I thought it quite strange when she kept bugging me about showing her around the house. I mean normally, one
would be stressed out from such long journey and demand sleep but unlike her, she kept pestering me about the house, how the cameras work and how difficult it was to get in and out the house..... Now I think about it, I'm quite naive, how could I not figure out her plan?"I rubbed my hands on my temple where a vein was throbbing painfully. "Don't beat yourself too hard it's not your fault, it's not like you knew she was going to try such thing"
Neither could I believe I just lost a kid not even an adult, on the second day of my job as a nanny. Could this get any worse?
Almost immediately, as if I jinxed my luck , my phone rang at once and I looked at the caller I. D and froze.
Nik!
My heart beat so hard that I thought it would jump out of my chest pretty soon while my palms began to shake and sweat. I nervously picked up the phone
and prayed to God to Help me survive this."H-hello"
"Hello" A deep husky voice hollered and I almost died from fright. I clutched my chest as if trying to steady the heart that
have being pumping non stop."Hey, whats up?" I called trying to sound normal but God knows I'm trying to grab the concept of normal at the moment.
"Fine, everything's fine" He answered, a bit absentminded if I may say.
"Why did you call?" I asked hoping nothing but for this conversation to be over cause I'm about having a panic attack.
"How is Isabelle? " Nik asked out of nowhere and I choked on my saliva entering a coughing fit at once.
"Hey, you OK?" The voice from the other end asked concerned but my muffled answer saved the day.
"Choked on my drink"
