When ever we do something what ever it might me we need courage for what we do and encouragement by our loved ones. When you are discouraged by any one you feel hopeless or empty from inside, you feel you can't do this even though you could do. The thing is that courage plays an important role when you take a new step in your life or try something new or overcome a fear.
For me the courage I need is for the search of the key on which my mind always pondered when ever I thought of my mother. Besides this courage, I need a plan, I cannot start without a plan and the first thing my plan counts is to meet the police officer who was in charge of my mother's case. It has been eight years and maybe he is transferred to some other place but I just hope so he hasn't. He is my first step to find the truth.
It's been almost an hour that I am awake, the sun is shining brightly behind my window. It looked like it is going to be a pleasant day ahead. I am going to go down and check whether my Grandma is awake or not.
As soon as I step out of my room I hear some sounds from the kitchen this makes sure that Grandma is awake. I run down to see what is she up to and it turns out to be that she is cooking up some breakfast for us.
"Hey Grandma" I say as I sit on the kitchen counter
"Hello Merliah" Grandma says
"Are Jack and Lisa awake?" I ask because I need them to accompany me to the police station
"Yes they are awake they must me down in a moment or so" says Grandma
"Okay" I say and I think whether I should tell her or not, if I tell will she stop me? but she was the one who boosted up my courage to much higher level, should I? or should I not?
"What are you thinking dear" asks Grandma who sees me pondering in my thoughts
"Grandma actually..." I hesitate for a moment "I am going to the..." I am cut off by the sounds of the footsteps
And Lisa and Jack were standing all dressed up. Jack comes to me and whispers in my ear.
"What's the plan?" whispers Jack in my ear
"I will let you know" I whisper back
He nods and leaves. I turn to see Grandma gives me one of those girlish smile. Aha! I know what she must be thinking , No! Not Again! I go and set the table for the breakfast, as I got to fetch some plates and Grandma is standing there. This is my time to clear the understanding, I take my chance and go near and whisper.
"It's nothing like that what you think"
"But you both look so good" she whispers
"I mean no means no"
Grandma gives me a disappointing look and I go to eat the breakfast. The food is going very slowly down my throat and I am having no intention of eating too. So I hurriedly finish up my breakfast and make myself some cold coffee to contrast with the outside whether.
"Merliah were are you hurrying up to?" asks Grandma
"To the police station" I say because I fully trust my Grandma "That is my plan today" I say as I turn to Jack and Lisa
"But dear why" Grandma asks as I ready my self to take the first towards my search
"Because I need the to meet someone" I say as I grab the keys of the house
"Who?" She asks
"I will tell you once I get back" I say as I step out of the house
As soon as I get out of the house I can feel the sun shining over my head. Jack hires a taxi to the police station. Through the glass of the car I could see those beautiful existence of nature.
