continue of flashback........................

"What will we do with this?" Mommy asked dad. There is something funny with mummy's voice. She does not talk like this, fast and furious. Something happened to be wrong, so I decided to enter the room. I walked in and dad and the other women I didn't recognize turned to me and kinda' looked shocked, so I decided to make a scared face so I could cry right on time. Something was not nice.

The women came to me and she seemed to be scary, held out a hand to me. That's my turn to use my secret weapon 'crying'. She backed off as I started crying and I ran to the secret room, about which dad did not know and called uncle Bruce and spoke nothing, but tapped the phone in a sequence 242.

Mama told me there are codes to ask for things like, fire brigade was 661, ambulance 11-41 and the code for help is 242 meaning 'battery' and I don't know what was battery (battery is any wilful and unlawful use of force or violence upon the person of another.) supposed to mean, but mom said it was 'help' in police panel codes.

Uncle Bruce said he was coming with help and I had to stay put where I was and I did what he said.

I put my ear to the iron wall so, I could hear dad and the women from outside. All I could hear them mumbling so I opened a small window and I could hear them clearly. Where I was, was like a small iron cupboard which had password for closing and opening. Well, It had windows from which we could hear from outside and the people from outside cannot hear from inside.

She told me to tell no one that the password was 'marry sweetie a-i-n' . I sat in the room under carpet and waited for someone to come rescue me and for time pass,nI was hearing dad and the women talk.

"We have to find that brat, now." the women said.

" Well, just keep looking and when we find her we will send her- marry." dad said. Was that supposed to mean that he will marry me to someone. Must be the women's name, right! I am sure it is.

"Nowhere, that brat is nowhere." The women said.

"Hey, she ain't a brat, plus we will send her to her room and we...- hey, what is that you hear the sound." Dad said and I got excited, uncle Bruce came. I waited and waited for Uncle to open the, but he didn't .

I opened another window which magically showed what was happening outside, mom said the trick was named 'cctv camera'. I love it. I looked at the magic screen and saw that no one had come and dad and the women stayed silent, taking guns in their hands and pointing here and there.

I took the phone again and tapped it in sequence 417 ( police scanner codes, person with a gun). Mommy said I had to learn all the scanner codes so uncle Bruce could understand what I was saying. I didn't get it uncle Bruce wouldn't understand me if I did not use the scanner codes, when papa or mama talk to him they talk in English. I wonder if there was 'police scanner English codes', which he tends to understand. Maybe Einstein knows; I love him.

I heard uncle Bruce say;

"Hey, they hav' got ye gun, listen we got to enter-ya like ye un-expected suspects."

O! He had a hot&spicy southern pepperoni jalapeño accent, mom said. Oddly she said 'hot' and 'spicy' like she was cat attracting a rat. Uncle slapped her at the back of the head for that. Well, I don't understand mom, wasn't it supposed to be, ye-llapene-yaaao if it were for him. 'yaoou' he says like tom (Tom&Jerry), when Jerry puts a pin on his bum. Mom spanked his ass one too. Serves him right.

I sat there in the room and took a candy bar kept in a shelf and started munching on it.

Cotton candy was a product of the industrial age, and some of its charm still derives from the fact that you can't make it without specialized equipment. At the turn of the twentieth century, a candy maker and dentist team designed a machine that combined heat and centrifugal force to fashion an impossibly gauzy candy. For over a century now, cotton candy's been a hallmark of fairs, amusement parks, and festivals.

I read the papers in the cupboard and they seemed to be interesting. We can't get cavities from cotton candy. I looked in the magic screen , a bell was at the door and dad and the women hid their weapons and opened the door. In came go-gor- gorilla. The gorilla was very scary.

The southern jalapeño hadn't arrived, but gorilla did. I picked up the phone again and said gorilla a few times, but it seemed Uncle Bruce wasn't there. The gorilla was coming to the washroom, my life is over.

Seeing the situation, I decided to pray and ask some last wishes from god.

1. I wish gorilla does not eat my hands, I started crying and continued, I wish he does not eat my hand and, and by mistake someone drops a mobile and the mobile has games in it .

2. Someone drops candies too.

3. And, and Einstein's books, well if they existed. I don't even know if they do, my god help me. I am too young to die.

4. Someone drops Jack too, I want to take care of him.

Amen !

I finished praying and the gorilla opened the cabinet room...

His big face wasn't the last thing I wanted to see...
