Meant To Be

**19

Adeline was up and the only thing running in her head was her son. The only son she longed for, she had to go through hell and back to earth to get just one son. Without him she felt like the useless girl as she was named before. She remembered how that name used to be plastered on her face, she remember every torture she was given, and from it she did not want to go back. She is going to find her son even if she is to die.

She stood up seeing a note written by Alex, saying that he is going to find their son and for her not to make herself die of hunger and instead there is food in the microwave and all.

She ate and made herself ready to find his son with determination.

..................

Alex and his securities with police kept waiting for Agatha with no hopes of her arriving. Alex decided to contact her but the phone couldn't reach her. And now anger was no word to describe how he felt. What he felt was rage and aggravated.

"Sir are you sure this is the person we should be looking for?" One of the securities asked, since they've stayed at the same position for one night and half a day.
"We are guarding this place and we will track this witch"

Paula reached her destination and dialed Alex to come pick her, not knowing what happened.
"What mother?" Alex said annoyance in his sound.
"Is that a way to talk to your mother?" Paula said trying to make his son speak with a low and calm voice.

"I am not getting smooth with you mom, just say what you want" Alex said keeping the same irritative voice which made Paula pissed.

"I'm in New York, Airport come pick me" she said avoiding to get even more irritated than she us.

"I'll tell the driver to come pick you, I'm busy now" Alex said cutting the line living Paula mutter to herself of how she could not believe what she heard from the mouth of his son.

..............................

It was about time she needed to return to her apartment to change, but she knew that for now Alex was around it digging holes wanting her to pop out. She laughed at that thought about him.

Instead he made his errand boy go fetch her clothes so she wouldn't get noticed.

Nathan couldn't sleep without a nightmare and now his body was screening hunger and sick. All he wanted was his parents. He kept whispering to himself
"daddy will come"
Since his daddy promised that he will never leave him.
But the whispering stopped when Agatha heard it.

"You think your daddy could find such a place, he will keep searching for this until he promises that I become your stepmother or until he looses everything and you die here followed by you stupid mother" Agatha said those hurtful words to a five year old child.

"He will come and my mommy is not stupid. They said they will never leave me alone. I hate you, my daddy will never make you my mommy." Nathan said anger, sadness and tears smoking out of his words.

"You have quite a big mouth to speak those words which don't match your age" Agatha said as if she cared anything about his age.
..............

Adeline did not know what to do. She felt helpless and uneasy of just being there waiting for Alex to bring news about Nathan.

"Patience Adeline, patience, we will not rest until we find him. Be strong for Nathan. He wouldn't want seeing you like this or coming here and not see you at all" Helen said trying to make Adeline not feel useless.

Diana tugged along with Sara and Helen and Diana finding Nathan in every way possible. Posters, internet, TV media, you name it they did. They could not depend on Alex's instincts as the only motive as Logan instructed.

..............

It was getting dark already making a count of two days since Nathan went missing as Alex counted. He was still stuck on the position he was seven hours ago. he promised himself if ever Agatha was the one who took his son away from him, she was going to face his wrath.

For what seemed like a millennium they saw a truck coming towards the abandoned house which was now filled with police, detectives and securities and Alex.
"Sir, a truck is coming by" one of the securities informed him.
"Focus on it, it's every move and give me a tracker tell the police to track me. When It leaves I'll follow then they come, you keep still and focus" Alex gave his statement but the detective opposed.

"You can't follow alone, I'll be there with you" the detective gave out his statement.

"As you wish" Alex said while the man bowed dismissing himself to the others while the detective and Alex went to keep themselves in position.

The truck packed in front of the house. The guy got out and went directly to the door. He took what he was asked for and directly to the truck again.

This is when Alex started the engine following the truck as a professional.
"Are you on some kind of a Mafia mob because you know how to do this" the detective observed and couldn't keep his mouth shut.

"I do some of military missions. Once I was kept under heavy missions, Infact I know many Mafia bosses I just don't tell" he jocked around following the truck calmly with anger and a little hope that his instinct is positive.
"I can see" the detective shot back.

The guy noticed that he was being followed he started increasing the speed and panicking as Alex and the detective interpreted.

After three hours the truck stopped and Alex decided to stop his And started to follow the tracks of a panicked man. He followed and he lost him but he was sure that his destination was the unfinished or hysteric Mansion in front of the truck.
They gave each other instructions before entering inside, Alex was in front while the detective stayed guard outside.

Alex searched not hearing any sound or mutters whereby people could makes it was a dead drop tensioned silence.
