Here's the recent chapter :


He found us, somebody found us again, after all these years i thought that nobody will, that we were hiding good enough , but no, here is someone again seraching for that stupid money , mom took . she couldn't just not take it with her and think about the troubles and problems she could be causing us . i was so lost in my thoughts that i hadn't noticed that Esteban was still there , looking worried as hell , he would be asking questions, and i can't just answer him and tell him everything she did or what our family is , he will be disgusted by me and will hate me for it, i need to make him go, i was thinking of some way when something popped in my head , i need Caleb, he should know and he would help me get away from explaining everything to Esteban . 

I looked at him and said quietly :" Please , hand me the phone "

He seemed lost too, he didn't know what was going on and why i wasn't saying anything ," Mel, relax , it's probably one of those kids joking ". i wish i could believe him and think the same, but no i couldn't , i knew things were too much of a coincidence . i stood up and went to call Caleb, i noticed i was shaking , i didn't want to seem weak but i couldn't control myself, tears were threatning to fall , and i wouldn't allow it, i hadn't cried since mom left , and i wasn't going to start now, After many mistakes , i finally typed my brother's number right, and waited for him to answer , i turned to look at Esteban whom was looking at me , he seemed worried about me , if i wasn't so scared i would probably make a joke and make him smile but i couldn't , i just wanted Caleb to answer his damn phone . IT seems like someone heard my prayer , when i heard his voice :

' hello ?'

' Caleb i need you home right now, please you need to come as quickly as possible'

' Wait , what happened ? are you okay ?'

'I'm fine but...it's happening again ...'

'What are you talking about ?'

' someone is searching for her ' 

This was all i needed to say , for him to understand who i was talking about and say ' Don't worry i'm coming , i'm few minutes away from the house ' and then the line went dead .

Caleb and I never used the word home, mainly because we never had a home, mom was always making us move, because she was afraid to be caught , and after she fled and left us , living with our aunt was never heart warming enough to make us feel like home, and finally after Caleb turned eighteen and we lived alone , we had to move twice , the first time was because some of our neighboors saw us , and the second time , we had met her ex- boyfriend who kept asking where she was and threatned to tell the gang where we were if we didn't tell him , so we had to move again . Home was something unknown for me ,i wish i could call our house a home someday and finally feel secure . I hadn't noticed that already ten minutes had passed when i saw Caleb's car's lights , i quickly went to open the door and he went inside , he was going to start asking questions , when he noticed that Esteban was here . And he said to Caleb :" Dude, what's happening , if it's serious , you should call the cops and change your location i can help you , come at my place and there you will -"

"listen man , i can't tell you but it's okay, we won't call the police they won't be able to help us "

Esteban looked shocked the said " no you have to be safe , at least protect your sister "

then Caleb screamed : " it's bigger than you think , but we'll solve things out , thank you for caring about her , but you need to stay out of this "

As he started heading to the door, all i was thinking about was , he'll hate me if i don't tell him and he'll be disgusted if i confess the truth , i didn't want him to stay away from me , but it was best for him , that's when i turned around and said to him : " for your sake , you need to stay away from me " it pained me to say it and it killed me to see how much he looked hurt and felt betrayed, i wanted to run to him and beg him to understand but i couldn't , i couldn't let him enter this mess which is my life, we will have to move again . when we were alone , i explained how i got the message to Caleb . both of us knew, we had to move , but this time , it was more complicated , he was going to get married in two weeks and they planned to live with vanessa in an appartment near their work but we still didn't decide where i was going, i refused to make them feel strange around me if i live with them, after all they'll be newly wed , and i thought about going to a boarding school but Caleb hadn't agreed because he didn't want me away from him , so i had no more options. Suddenly Caleb stated , "i think you should live in Esteban's house for a while, at least until i find another house we can move to with vanessa " 

" what ? no ! and even if i agreed, where are you going to live ? " I  asked 

" i'll be with Vanessa in the appartement untill i find something bigger and you'll move on with me again , but it's the safest place for you there ", he seemed to be begging me to understand " please Mel, don't think i'm giving up on you, i swear i'm not , i just need some time to fix everything , i promise you i'll make it quick please just try to understant, i will do everything to make you safe , and there is the best i can think of right now , at least just this month " 

i didn't want to live without him , but it was goig to happen anyway, and i knew that what he was saying was true . Now , all i had to do is pack my bag and hope that Esteban won't ask many questions ....
