I picked up my phone and dialed my mother's phone. I really did not expect them to pick up but thank my luck stars that day. She picked up as soon as the phone rang. She seemed to be in a relaxed state of mind and when I heard her voice, I broke down.

I am pretty sure that must have gotten my mother's attention as she had a change in tone and naturally seemed worried. I began explaining what had been happening for the past few days and she seemed in a mixture of emotions. I could not really decipher the emotions because we were speaking from two different sides of the planet. Nevertheless, I asked her for her help and told her how much i needed her to be with me.

What was I thinking? Why would workaholic parents like them leave everything behind just to tend for a young adult? Huh! No way were they coming back. I lost all hope again as I hung up the phone.

I WANTED TO GET ANSWERS!!

I could feel the blood boiling inside me. Why was that everyone wanted to leave me when i needed them the most! Why was it that everyone took me for granted and left me when I was alone? I felt as if I was floating in Neverland. I wanted answers so I called David up in the middle of the night. Like my mom, I did not expect him to pick up but he did the minute the phone started ringing, he picked up. I was surprised he was still awake.

"Yo David... you are up quite late. What's wrong?"

"Hey Omar! You are up quite late as well eh. Tell me... what is it that you wanna talk about?"

"I'm pretty sure you know what i want to talk to you about. Tell me David. Tell me why you-"

"Look bro! I have told you this before and i am telling you this again. I am not going to tell you anything plus there is nothing to talk about anyways."

"Don't interrupt me-"

He just hung up.

I was very disappointed at him. He had never been so rude before. The David i knew could never have been so rude with me. At that point of time, I could not decipher what to do.

I sat down on my couch and did nothing. At this point I, or anyone else in the world would expect myself to do something but truth be told, I did absolutely nothing. I just entered this part of my mind and I started thinking about everything that been happening for the past few days. Everything had been so messed up.

For days Luke and I have left no stone unturned to gather any type of evidence but nothing seemed to be coming up. Every stone we turned seemed to bring us to an empty path.

Just as I was about to go to sleep, my phone rang and this time, my inner senses were telling me its not David. So if it was not David, then who was it?

As I reached out to my phone and saw who messaged me, it rattled a lot of emotions within me and I was in a complete loss of control over my mind.

Who was it you ask?

It was Ariana Gomez...
