"That I look like Nathan!" I said to the boy and his eyes grew wide.
"Who are you?" he asked, looking at me.
"Adam Parker." I told him, stretching my hand. He took my hand and shook it.
"Jason Brown." He told his name and continued. "Mind if, I ask something?" he asked me. When I motioned him to continue, he asked me, "Did you say Anna over the phone? Is it the same Anna that I know?"
"Yes, I did. And I do think that she is the same one." I took my phone out and showed him the photo. Taking my phone from my hand, he looked at the photo carefully. "Come with me." He gestured me to follow him. I followed because I think he can give some answers. We took the elevator and got out on the top floor. We stopped before a door and he told me to wait.
"Dave, I need to borrow Patricia. I know, you guys are between this meeting but it is important. Thank you." I heard him say, opening the door.
"What happened Jason? I told you, I have to attend this meeting. I have things to learn about management. I told you to wait in the lobby. Meeting's going to be over in ten minutes. I am sure whatever it is can wait." I saw Patricia's black hair behind Jason.
"It's about Annabelle. There is someone here." Jason shifted from where he was standing, revealing me.
"What!!! But You are not Anna." Patricia said, looking between me and Jason.
"Adam Parker." I extended my hand, looking her in eyes. She too had green eyes like her brother and me. She studied my face for a brief moment and then looked at Jason.
"I know." He said, holding her hand.
"I want to sit down. Let's go somewhere else." She said, clutching his arm tightly. We entered a room and sat down on a couch.
"You look like my brother. Not exactly but you do. How??" She whispered, shaking her head.
"So, I have been told. But I am here to know about Anna." I told her. I am not here to listen to people telling me that I look like Nathan Wilson who is dead now. I am here to know about Anna.
"How is she? Where is she? One night and she disappeared. We came to know that they shifted somewhere else. Nobody knew where she is. Those who knew, didn't tell us. How was Daniel able to keep all the moving a secret is beyond me!!!!" She asked leaning on the table.
"She moved to our town, Westcoast High. Joined school and everything would have been fine, if I had a different face or different eyes. But then, she moved away again. And nobody knows, where she is." I told her about the whole thing.
"Sometimes, it makes me wonder, if Daniel really is a doctor or in some secret agencies especially made for moving away. No message, nobody heard from them." She shook her head. Jason came and sat beside her, giving her a coffee. He placed a mug infront of me.
"I am good. But this time, she left me a note." I took out the letter from my pocket and passed it to her. Her eyes scanned the letter and she threw it on the table.
"One year has passed. And she is still blaming herself. All those therapy sessions did nothing. It took so much time for Nathan to convince herself to stop blaming. This isn't what my brother would have wanted." She started crying, holding her face in her hands. Jason held her in his arms, trying to calm her.
"Do you love her?" Patricia asked me, wiping her tears from the back of her hand.
"Yes, I do. I just want to know, what happened in the past to make her feel this way? Why does she blame herself for things? Why she calls herself a killer?" I raked my hand through my hairs.
"Things happened. Terrible things that scarred her. Nathan helped her to heal those. But before the stitches could heal, they broke leaving her more wounded than before." She said in a low voice.
"I want to know, what happened. I have been searching answers and you are the one who can finally give those to me. It's like you know, you can only cure; when you know the disease."
She looked out of the window and then at Jason, contemplating whether to tell me or not. Maybe she won't. I should just go. I stood up to leave but she spoke, telling things that I never imagined.
"The story starts when we were fifteen. It was a welcome to high school party. It was our first high school party. Exciting! Isn't it. Party, yea!!" She said faking enthusiasm but then her voice turned cold and low. "But that party would turn into a dark night for Anna, wasn't what we thought. It was the night that changed everything for her."
