Dedicated to : My dear teacher Fariha! Without whom I simply couldn't have brought myself to publish this book!!!💜💙💜
The boys followed her and found a large chemical laboratory in front of them with tubes containing weird liquid in them. After shaking their heads so ferociously while falling down the hole into the floor and carrying out gymnastics in mid air thanks to Charlotte 's illusions they were way too accustomed to unexpected events that their brains reacted normally upon seeing a whole laboratory under a rabbit burrow in the yard. Peter amused himself with those tubes while David tried to be a little understanding for Charlotte. After alot of patience and silence ( even Peter got bored and came up to listen to the conversation which hadn't yet started!) Charlotte finally mumbled words out of her mouth and then after a big sigh said " the story I ... told you was true but I missed out parts. I could never run away from my marvellous family or my marvellous home and yeah I dont have any stepmom! That was a lie. My parents worked in a secret agency and both were top spies." She broke her sentence to some thoughtful silence and then with a lighter tone said "I have 2 siblings by the way a brother and a sister." David saw how she missed them in her big eyes and said
" Ahan! That's cool I simply dunno how it is like to have siblings"
Charlotte smiled while deep in thoughts, not meeting David 's eye and continued with her tale " All was fine until( smile left her face ) ... until my dad ... he disappeared on a mission. My mom was disheartened and so she retired but the agency suspected something wrong and big behind the disappearance of 14 of their top spies who by chance were all key players of the same mission. As a precautionary measure the agency took my mother to safety on an island ( after she announced her retirement) alongside my siblings but I was recruited by the agency to solve the missing pieces in the puzzle plus a child agent would be least suspected perhaps it is in my blood anyway so that's how I was given the information for the mission and they provided me live images of different locations to work from where ofcourse they suspected some activity going on -"
"What!" Peter interrupted " the agency showed you a what you call 'live' image of this house... well who do you think could be involved in a such a mission at an old hous-"
"Who said they showed me the image of the old house. I chose it myself! it so happens to be that some years back the last of the people to disappear was recorded to have stayed in this house and I had seen this picture in some old file in the agency's library " Charlotte came -up in a tone that shouted hopeless-Peter .
Peter was about to react to it but David gave him a push from his elbow and said bringing Charlotte 's attention to him
" okay I think a better question would be that what did I say that made you cry like that"
Charlotte turned around with her back at the boys saying very casually
" you found out my secret"
David smiled while and said while thinking about something else " you indeed are emotionally unbalanced " while Peter mumbled in his mouth " I say not balanced at all she is bonkers!"
Charlotte gave a smile that reached her eyes and something passed on between them that said 'friends.'
The three climbed up the burrow though using an old and slightly fixed staircase and got out on the other side of the house.
