"What do you want with me?" I asked.
"Well I know your a guardian angel so I am sure you'll do anything to protect Jake." he said.
"I have a proposal.if I find you, i'll trade myself for Jake to be untouched." I said.
"Deal but good luck." then he hung up the phone.
I took my weapons off and placed them in the car after I went outside. I walked over to The Hensley's house in black pants that I could move swiftly in, a black tanktop and leather jacket, with black combat boots. I had all my make up off my face so that revealed cuts on my face from training.
I knocked on the door and waited as I heard footsteps shuffling. I looked to my left and saw the sun setting behind a mountain. Then the door opened and as soon as Jakes mom saw it was me she attempted to close the door but I used my foot to stop her.
"I know you don't wanna talk to me but I need to know where Jake is." I said quickly.
"Why do you need to know? stalker." she muttered the last part but I still heard her.
"I know your not exactly my biggest fan but I was assigned a part and I have to protect Jake and to do that I need to know where he was before he was kidnapped." I explained. her eyes went wide, wait she didn't know? "look I need to know where he last went and see if I can get any clues as to where he is. I promise he will return with out a scratch."
"And for what reason do you need to protect him?"
"You'll think I'm crazy."
She raised her eyebrows and I knew what she was hinting at.
"Right, you already think I'm crazy." I voiced my thoughts.
I thought about how or even what I should tell her. I should tell her the truth, I know I'm not supposed to, but if it helps save Jake I'm all for it.
"Screw it." I muttered. "I'm a guardian angel that was assigned to protect your son. that's why I have a file on him so I can know who to protect him from but I didn't get very far."
She cracked up laughing and I looked away while she stopped.
"Wait, you're serious?" she asked in disbelief.
"I died exactly 2 weeks and 8 months ago.." I explained. "My real name is Tiffany."
"Where and when did you die?" She asked.
"I told you when." I said.
"The date." she shot.
"December 21st, 2013." I answered," I died in down town L.A, just after my boyfriend purposed to me."
At first she looked at me in disbelief and then went wide eyed as if she remembered something and tears ran down her cheeks. she threw her arms around me and started sobbing.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." she said in between sobs.
"What are you sorry for? there was nothing you could've done." I said pulling her off me. her eyes were red and puffy and full of regret and guilt.
"That's not true. I was there, I was the driver in the car." she explained using all her breath.
"What do you mean?" I asked. then the memory of the blurry figure came back. blonde hair, green eyes.
"I forgive you." I said.
"How can you forgive me? I killed you and took you away from your love. you looked so happy together and the pain in his eyes when you passed out... it was intense." she explained.
