Serendipity

Chapter- 26 The Number Is Unavailable!!!!!

Hey guys!!! It's me... And I am happy. If you guess because it's Shawn Mendes birthday, then you are absolutely correct. Wish him happy birthday! As promised, the chapter is here....

********************************

"He is here. Back!!! It's my son." Mr. Wilson shouted, attracting attention of many other people in the lobby. I look at Patricia for help. She sighed and placed a hand on Mr. Wilson's shoulder.

"Dad, here!! Look at me." She turned his face, so he was now facing her. Taking out his spectacles from his pocket, she places them on his nose. "Dad, those who die don't come back. He is not Nathan. Look carefully!" her voice cracking.

Mr. Wilson turned to face me again. Scrunching his eyes, he studied my face. He sighed and slumped down on the couch beside me.

"What a fool I am? How could I even think that my son could ever return!! He is far far away to ever return back." He held his face between his hands, trembling with chocked sobs. Patricia kneeled down infront of him and hugged him.

"It's okay, Dad! Stop crying! Nathan wouldn't like seeing you cry. Sshhhh." Patricia said rubbing his father's back. People around us were staring, watching a breakdown of a father. Sympathy written over their face, for the man who pays them money at the starting of each month.

"Everybody!!" shouted Jason. "There is no show going on here. Back to your business." And everybody turned back to resume whatever they were doing. Angela came back with a glass of water for Mr. Wilson. After gulping down the water and relaxing, Mr. Wilson stood up.

"Ms. Wilson, the room you asked for is ready. Here are the keys." She began handing her a key card but Mr. Wilson stopped her.

"What did you tell his name, Patricia?" he asked, looking between me and her.

"Sir, I am Adam Jordon Parker." I introduced myself and shook his hand.

"Do you know, you look a bit like my son? He is no more." He tried to maintain his straight face, trying to hide his grief.

"Yes, sir!! I am aware. I am sorry for your son." I know these words are completely useless but I don't know what else to do.

"You said Jordon Parker! Didn't you?" He asked me, raising an eyebrow. I nodded a 'yes' in response. "He arranges seminar sometimes in our hotel. I have met your father. He is a great guy."

"Thank you, sir!"

"You should stay at our house, young man. You are most welcome there." He then turned to Patricia. "Ask Adam to stay the night at our house. And Jason, have today's dinner with us." He smiled at him.

"Okay!" she nodded and then looked at me. "Angela, we don't need this key anymore." Angela bowed and walked away.

"I am fine by myself. There is really no need. But thank you for inviting me." I said. I really don't think my staying at their house is a good idea.

"Dad, why don't you go to the car? Me and Jason will make sure that Adam comes with us." She smiled at Mr. Wilson. He nodded before leaving. I don't understand, why would he want me to be at their house!

"Look, if dad wants you to stay, then please don't refuse. I can tell you about other things too. And maybe I could help you with finding about Anna. Last time, I didn't do anything because I wanted her to take her time. I wanted her to move on. Seeing us, only reminded her of Nathan. She tried moving on but then pulled herself back, landing on square one again. This time, I don't want her to torment herself." Patricia said, in one breath.

"Yeah! We can put our resources into use to find about her." Jason said, patting on my shoulder. I thought about what they are trying to say. Well! With their help, I can definitely have a lead on Anna. I could find her.

"Okay!" And with that, I followed them. I got into my car and followed them.

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

I stared at the big house infront of me. Heck! It was a mansion. The guards standing opened the doors and let us in. The well- maintained garden lawn is being adorned by a fountain, adding cheery to the beauty of the mansion. I halted the car behind Patricia and Mr. Wilson. The staff of the house came rushing outside. Patricia handed her keys to a man and gestured me to do the same.

"Welcome to our house! Adam." Mr. Wilson said, patting on my back. "Get a room ready for our guest." He said to one of the servants.

"Adam, why don't you get refreshed! It's time, till the dinner is getting set. Josh, will you please show him the way." Patricia said to guy, who would be in his mid- twenties.

"This way, sir." Josh said to me and began walking. I followed behind him. The walls of the halls were filled by family photos of The Wilsons, all sporting happy faces and smile on their faces. Josh led me into a room with cream walls. It looks elegant.

"Everything you would possibly need from towels to fresh clothes are in the bathroom, sir." Josh told me.

"It's just Adam and thank you." He nodded and left me.

I splashed some water on my face and looked in the mirror. Did I made the right choice about staying here? My phone vibrated in my pocket. Greg's name flashes on the screen.

"When are you coming home? Did you find something?" Greg's voice boomed from the other side.

"Well, I am not coming. And yes, I did find some things but I will tell you them when I come back." I said, reaching out for a towel.

"What do you mean that you are not coming? Where are you staying?"

"I am at Wilson's house." I hesitated before telling him.

"YOU ARE AT NATHAN'S HOUSE!!!"

"Stop yelling! And yeah, it's a long story. Look, I will tell you and Sam things when I come back. not right now, when I don't know half of them." I said, massaging my temples.

"Okay, fine! Take care. And yeah, Jeremy and Sam went to Mr. Davidson's place. He said that he doesn't know anything. Sam thinks that he does but isn't telling us." Greg told me.

"If you guys find anything, tell me. I will talk you guys tomorrow. Bye!"

"Bye." I disconnected the call. I opened the contacts, I pressed the dial for the contact on the top of my list. Like every other time, I heard the same monotonous and dull voice of operator telling me that the number is unavailable. Where are you Anna??
