CHRIS POV

HAILEY WAS MISSING FOR THE PAST FEW HOURS. Bree, Carter and I were searching for her for the past several hours. I noticed that she had gone missing when she didn't attend school today, that girl would not skip school unless she was very sick or not in the mood. I mean, her mood yesterday was perfectly fine. She was not a badass nor a goody-two-shoes, she was in the middle of it. I took a deep breath and walked to my room. It was evening right now and we still haven't found her yet. I grew irritated and worried as to why she had suddenly disappeared since today, or maybe yesterday. After I dropped Hailey off of her house, my gut was telling me that today would be a bad day. I shook off the feeling as I thought about it. I was sitting down on my bed and my hands were buried on my chestnut hair. Then, an idea struck on my mind.

I opened my laptop and tapped the on button. I typed vigorously and my jaw was clenched for the whole time, several minutes later and I was done typing. I was sending an email to my best tracker, Theo. I first met him when he volunteered himself to help searching for Cameron. When Cameron was two and a half years old, he was kidnapped anonymously. My father then decided to hire a tracker for the Petersons' household and Theo volunteered himself for it.

'Please don't tell my family about this.' I added on the email. It was a disgrace when I was helping the enemy's last descendant.

I hope Theo answered me as fast as possible.

My eyes drifted for a few minutes earlier, I then fall asleep on my bed with my laptop screen went all black.

I promise I will find you, Hailey.

***

Two days later, Theo messaged me and the result I was waiting anxiously was finally here.

To Chris my lil' asshole,

Take a guess where your pretty little girlfriend ran to. She's in Atlanta, she enrolled on Northview High School. A pretty great school to be honest. I don't know where she lives because the Arrington's didn't have a house there. Maybe they use a fake identity. I hope it helps.

Your favourite hacker, Theo.

I sent a grateful message to him on email and bought a plane ticket to Atlanta, the earliest flight was this afternoon at 2 PM. I grabbed some useful things and my passport then shoved it inside my backpack. The time showed 12 o'clock right now and I had two hours to find one reasonable reason for my family so that they would know I went aboard. I walked downstairs silently and knocked on my family's door one by one, It was tiring but it was better than shouting like a stupid prick.

One by one, they strolled in the living room, Cameron was staring at me and I sent him a smile to reassure him. Everyone have seated well and I decided to break the news here.

"I'm going to Atlanta." This four words immediately made my family grow rampage and noisy.

"What? What are you doing there?" Caleb asked cautiously, his elbow on his thighs while staring at me. This dude was always suspicious of me. Whenever I went- even the bathroom- he would follow me everywhere and throw incoherent words to me.

"I got a modelling spot for you there, take it," Celine said. I'm not a fan of modelling, sorry not sorry sis.

"What?!" My mother and father shrieked.
