Mr. Harris's Pov

My wife and I are sitting in the living room with the news on when a report comes on about a shoot-out at Twin Tower's Correctional Facility.

That's where Julia is.

Looking at my wife, I say. "Julia's there. I hope she's not in the middle of that."

Bullets are flying through the air, and it looks like a scene from a Hollywood blockbuster.

I need to call her.

Pulling my phone out of my pocket, I call Julia. When the phone goes to a voice message, I say, "Julia, it's Dad. Can you give me a call when you get this message? I'm worried about you. There's a shoot-out at the correctional facility, and I'm hoping that you're not in it. I love you." I hang up and search my phone for another person to call.

Cole. He might know what's going on.

My wife looks at the phone, and a smile spreads. "If anyone knows something about our daughter, it will surely be him. He won't make you wait for the answers to your questions."

I press his number, which rings several times before he answers it.

Cole: Hello, Mr. Harris.

Me: What do you know about the Twin Towers Correctional Facility shoot-out?

Cole: Uh,

Me: Please tell me what you know. Julia was going there today, and then the shoot-out happened. I don't think it's a coincidence that my daughter goes there and this happens. Whatever she's digging into won't end well for either of you.

Cole: Julia wants to separate the truth from the lies she's been told since she got back from Nova Island. She knows something isn't adding up, so she's looking into it. Whatever she finds out in prison, I hope it can help her uncover every dark skeleton in her family's wardrobe.

Me: I'm not hiding anything.

Cole: Your sons are. That's the only reason I'm letting them stay at my home. I'm hoping to find out more about them.

Me: Do you think my sons are up to something?

Cole: Yes, I do. Since Julia returned, it's been getting more challenging for them to hide things. I remember in high school, she used to find information that made her understand the bigger picture, and right now, with your family, she's only seeing half of it.

Me: True, but that bigger picture is bringing danger to our lives, and I don't want to lose my daughter because of it.

Cole: You won't lose her. I've got some people that will protect her at all costs.

Me: Thank you, Cole. Can you tell me what you know about what's happening at the Correctional Facility? Is my daughter out of there? Is my brother okay?

Cole: I don't know anything about your brother. What I know about Julia is that she's trapped inside.

My daughter can't be trapped in there.

Cole: My cousin Riker has someone inside who will do all he can to get her out. When she's out, someone else will get her to safety, but I don't think she'll be going home until Monday.

Me: Thanks for telling me, Cole.

I hang up the phone and continue to watch the news.
