Friday morning, I haven't slept at all.
I spent all night stuffing my duffel bag with clothes, and thinking what I would say to Allison.Allison, I closed my eyes, I couldn't get her out of my mind. My mom said I didn't have to go to school today if I i didnt want to, after what happened last night.
She spent most of the night crying, and other half she spent bargaining with a judge and pleading to keep custody of me.
I couldn't help but punching the wall over and over last night. I texted Allison last night, but I didn't tell her about everything, because I didn't want her to worry. I decided to go see her after school today, I grabbed my phone and searched my contact list: Allii
I texted: Hey, Can i c u after school today. I need to talk to u luv ya - Alex
Just writing the text killed me, sending it shoved me into a hole and threw dirt over my body. I didn't know what I would say. I decided then to go with the flow, so I ignored the problem until the came back. I threw my bag over the staircase and walked back to my room, passing my father's study.
''If I'm going to hell, I'm gonna find out what the hell was on that flashdrive.''
I broke off the piece of wood jammed into the door. My mom was knocked out on her bed so I don't think she heard me. I entered the room. Everything was the way I left it, I found the flashdrive under the papers.
While shuffling through the papers, something triggered a memory. The eagle emblem on the papers, it was on the same uniforms those men last night wore. I ignored it, but I couldn't helpbut think it would come back to haunt me. I didn't know how long I had before my mom woke up, so I pasted everything onto a spare flashdrive there.
'' Crap, firewall. How am I supposed to..'' I ran a ghost program to deactivate the firewalllong enough to paste the files.
I left the room and jammed the wood back into place.
I went to my room, or at least what was left of it. And used my laptop to snoop through the files.
Like last time, I found both mine and Jason's father's names' here. Along with something else...
Along in the files, a mention of a genetic engineering was in there, as well a reference of NYPD being a supplier for BlackWing.
''BlackWing?''
The last file I searched through hit me. I felt like collasping on the floor.
List of Agents to be terminated
Down there, I found my father's name. I confused. My father being mentioned on a government file. Terminated?
It was a big stretch, but could it be I didn't lose my father in a random act of violence. Was he taken from me on purpose? Was this god's idea of a sick game?
I shut my laptop and looked at my clock. 2:30pm.
I gotta go see Allison. Allison.
What am I gonna say?
