"Well Bright, take this way" I said while we were heading to the main road. "Look! It seems like someone is following us behind. I've seen that man in black clothes from early" Bright said. Really there was a man behind us who was following us step by step but I didn't care about it before. "What are we going to do?" I asked Bright because even I was helping him he was a pro in street life than me so he had to decide what to do. "You know? Let's enter that shop. I think the man behind knows us well and why he is following us is because maybe he know something" Bright said but I can't believe I've told this to any other person else except Bright. Then who was that man?
"Ok, let's go" I said. We went into the shop that was in front of us, it was named –STYLE DRESS SHOP- seems like it was of clothes. We spent for about twenty minutes inside the shop but surprisingly by coming out, the man in black clothes was no longer there. "Look Bright, he is no longer here! Where might he went?" I asked Bright in a flicking voice. Bright took a deep breath and looked up in the sky for few seconds then he said: "You know Sarah? That man is spying us! What about Chris? Have you told him anything about?" he asked but I was pretty sure that I didn't do that hell.
"No way man, I didn't do that. How could I tell my plans to that he-snake?" I said. "Ok then let's continue our way" Bright said with no worries. "Well that way!" I said pointing to the left corner that was in front of us. "But Bright, why do you think that it might be Chris?" I asked. "Chris is a terrible man as I've told you, Chris is a wise spy. He knows all tricks of spying and there are no doubts that it might be him" Bright said seeming like he was pretty sure about it.
"Now, what if he is with other police men?" I asked him but before saying anything, he laughed. "Hell, are you laughing at me? Do you think that this time is for jokes man?" I asked him in a mad voice. "Not at all Sarah But do you fear the police?" he asked. "Why can't I? Are you going to say that you don't? Remember that time when they came to my house, where were you? Weren't you hiding in the cupboard as if you were clothes?" I said to him trying to remind him that he already fears polices. It seems like we were joking despite all troubles we were in.
"Hahaha! Ok then, if we are caught I promise you, I'll make you innocent saying that you were just helping an innocent person but you didn't know what were behind him" Bright said and I was starting to like him due to his stories and his funny words. "Eeh! Do you think that we are going to be caught?" I asked him because I was seeing that he was ready to give himself into the hands of police due to what he was saying. "Not that Sarah. But keep in mind that everything is possible here" he said. "Okay; oh we are already there. Do you know this place before or it's your first time?" I asked him, we were now at the shore but Bright stopped, he was looking all around there as if he has been there before. "Oh Bright, why are you looking like that? Are you familiar with this place? I asked. "I think I've been here once but I don't remember when and what I was doing here but it seems like it is not my first time to reach here" he answered.
"Hey look! Why are so many foot prints here? It seems like there were many people here" Bright said pointing at the foot prints that were on the sand. "Hmm! What? Ok let's go, maybe she had visitors. Here is the boat and I think the old woman is in here" I said. We entered the boat but we were surprised! We felt like we were hit by a thunder. Something strange has happened here. There was no one inside the boat as we thought and everything was scattered everywhere. "What a hell!" Bright and I said spontaneously. But by looking well at Bright, he was not caring on how things were scattered but he was staring at the ordered pictures that were hanged at the wall.
"Bright are you ok?" I asked but he responded with nothing, instead he started crying. "Oh my God! Bright what is going on? Why are you crying?" I asked but he remained quiet. By looking well at the pictures, they were arranged in the ascending order but many were of the same person. When he was young and when he was old. I was also surprised to realize that those pictures were of Bright and the old people seeming like they were his parents. "Huh! The old woman is your mother? Ash! I remember that one time she was telling me that she had a son but she doesn't know where he is. Maybe that son is you!" I said. "I can't believe that this is my mother. Do I have a family? No, I don't have any parent I was raised and cared by the street. How can she still alive? How does she know that I'm also alive? No!" Bright screamed out but it was going to help with nothing because the old woman was not there. "Bright calm down man. Wow! Look at that pink envelop what's inside?" I asked him after seeing envelop that was pinned on the wall at the end of the pictures. "Let's open it" he said.
"Hmm it's a letter. Are you going to read it? Maybe it contains all information about your family" I said. "No, read it for me" Bright answered. The letter was full of apologies. There was also a reason for the separation with her son. It was a long story and I'm sure that I'm not going to tell all written in that letter. In the letter, the old woman said that when Bright was five, his father took him off from her because she was from a poor family saying that she can't afford enough money to raise his son for they weren't married. After the man took the little Bright, it was soon announced that they had a car accident. The woman was shocked to hear that, and he thought that all who were in the car were dead including also her lovely son. But after the police investigation about that accident which lasted for about two years because there was no one who was taking care about that case, it was again announced that one person was missing. The car was carrying three people including the driver but the dead bodies found were only two, the driver and the other man. From that announcement she realized that her son is still alive and she aimed to find him as possible. But after a week, she was arrested in the case of her husband and her son who was missing. Her husband was a drug dealer so she had to give more explanations to the police. She was arrested for five years and when she came out, the only thing was to find her son. She decided to do the same job as her husband; being a drug dealer also. She thought it was the only way to get to her son. She later became a pro in that drug business and she being wanted by the police due to her crimes. She later comes to know that her son is alive but she couldn't show up to him because she was also wanted everywhere. Unfortunately, she is now caught without meeting her son.
"Then Bright what are we going to do? At this time, your mother is in the hands of police" I said. "You know? I can't believe this until I talk to my mother face to face. I thought that she was the one who threw me away on streets but she is innocent. I have to meet her" he said. "Bright are you crazy? You want to say that you are going to find her in the jail? The poor you, how are you going to do that? You know that you are also wanted by the police" I said to him.
"Of course I know that. But I have to put an end at this. Living my all life hiding isn't worth. I don't care if I'm going to be arrested but better I'll be with my mother even though I didn't wish to meet her like this but I have to do it" Bright said but I couldn't believe that he was going to do it. Getting off the boat, unexpected things happened. The police was there waiting for us to come out! They already had all information. I felt like I was burning alive. "Put your hands where we see" the officers said pointing guns on us. "Bright I'm so afraid. Are we going to die?" I said in a hoarse voice. "Don't worry, you are going to be free and am going to meet my mother. My family now is in jail" he said as if he was not afraid to go in the jail.
They took us in the jail Bright and his mother, were accused by their crimes. I was arrested for a month accusing to be a partnership with criminals. Bright and his mother were judged by the court to be arrested for ten years and this is their first year in jail. Every month I go to visit them. Even though they were criminals but they made my life. They were my friends and together, we have fought many wars. We had good and bad memories together and it's all our secrets...
