Kapitel 26: This is my Escape.
Lin's P.O.V
I woke up with a splitting headache.
"Ugghh." I groaned quietly.
I remember, been tossed into the back of a black pickup truck with my hands tied to my ankles.
"You better don't do anything stupid."
Max, scoffed..
And soon we were speeding out of town.
I could tell because, houses were becoming scarce.
And soon , it was just the truck speeding in the middle of the woods.
I somehow managed to fall asleep, despite the chill weather. And the loud noises created by Zack and Max
I look around..
The sun was starting to rise, and the birds were chirping.
I slowly sat up, and that's when it occurred to me that the van was no longer moving.
"Why'd we stop moving?"
I thought to myself as tried peering through the front panel.
I couldn't see much, but I could tell the one was sleeping on the driver's seat and the other seat was empty..
I quickly dragged myself , to the end of the truck.
Looking frantically around in search of the other man.
But everywhere was empty. There was no trace of human anywhere.
Quickly I started to work on my ankle knots.
It was really difficult, because they were tied tightly. And also tied to my hands.
I was panting..
"You need to be fast!" I yelled in my head
The adrenaline rushing through my veins...
The fear of been caught..
The anxiety...
My fingers worked aimlessly on the knot..
I was also looking back and forth...
The feeling of one of them popping up from the bushes made me more frightened.
I suddenly felt a small loose...
"Ahhh.. " I sighed in relief softly..
After a few more pulls. My legs were freed.
I'll glanced at the front panel again..
The sleeping figure hadn't moved an inch..
I looked around again.. this time standing up.
Now certain that the coast is clear..
I decided to jump down..
I can't use my hands at the moment.
If I could jump out without falling with my body.
The thud sound I'll make would be less.
"You can do this.."
I muttered as I aimed for the ground.
"1...2...3..."
And I threw myself out of the floor panel, and over the top railing.
I landed real hard on my feet.
That I was scared the sound that was created would give me out.
Now at the back of the truck.
Everywhere was oddly quiet, even the birds stopped singing. My heart was beating fast and so loud that I feared someone would hear me.
Taking a deep breath, I looked towards the woods.
I was barefoot, but that didn't matter to me at the moment.
Taking a deep breath, I sprinted into the thick woods . Without looking back.
This is my escape.
Luca's P.O.V
After having breakfast.
I was informed that the messeur wouldn't be available till noon.
And that's actually in my favour. I had spoke to Mr Steve earlier and he confirmed that Mr Spade is on his way.
I've already made payments for his services.
Going into my dad's office won't be difficult.
The Mansion gets pretty quiet, after the morning chores have been completed.
And besides that, the office area is always isolated.
I wore something comfortable, and light.
And currently I'm using a walking stick, so that walking would be less painful.
Who would have thought a small accident is going to be this painful.
The sound of my phone's vibrating, got my attention.
And it was Mr Spade calling.
"Hola boy.. I'm in the mansion."
He said loudly into the phone. That I had to take my phone some inches away from my ear.
"I'll be coming down.. Give me a moment."
I said , as I hanged up.
I locked my room door, and headed for the sitting room.
"Mr Spade!"
I called out, from the top of the stairs.
He turned and looking around, and gave a wide grin when he finally sighted me.
"How are you doing the boy?"
He asked standing up.
Ignoring his question, I signalled him to come up.
And soon he was lightly running up the stairs.
"Woahh, last time I saw you , you had just two legs!"
He exclaimed as soon as he saw my full figure.
I didn't know if he is sorry about my condition, or making mockery of it.
Either ways, Ignored him.
"Let's get to work shall we?"
I asked turning around, walking slowly towards Mr Guan's office.
"Dammm.. no jokes allowed here?"
He mumbled loud enough for me to hear.
I completely snubbed him..
If only he knows the roller coaster of emotions I'm experiencing at the moment.
I was deeply anxious and scared of what we would find inside the safe.
Would I get disappointed. Aswe got closer to his office. The terrible feelings increases.
"We are here."
I said, holding my breath.
Mr Spade came over and stood right next to me.
"You sure you want to do this boy?"
He asked, seems he had noticed the change in my mood.
I took a deep breath..." If I don't do this now, I won't be at rest." I said to myself.
"Let's get this over with, shall we?"
I asked, turning to him and giving a short smile.
He nodded and place a hand on my shoulder.
I slowly brought out a master key from my pocket.
And after two clicks the door opened.
I slowly walked in, and Mr Spade followed closely behind.
"This place is huge.."
Mr Spade said calmly, he wasn't sounding as excited as before.
I locked the door and shrugged.
"Your tools?" I asked , giving him a questioning look.
"What do I need tools for...Show me the safe."
He said looking, there were about three safes in the office.
So he had to ask.
"That one."I said pointing to the first safe.
"Let's get to work."
He said, folding the sleeve of his shirt.
I started to walk behind him. When he suddenly turned to me.
"No no .. not with your three legs, you should sit."
He said , pointing towards the seat.I sighed, he was right by the way.
"How long is this gonna take?" I asked walking away.
"Hmmm, I can't tell."He said giving the safe a tap.
"We don't really have much time."
I groaned as i slowly sat down on the chair.
I didn't get any reply... So I looked up towards his direction.
Mr Spade was looking totally different.
I couldn't believe he could concentrate that much and be so engrossed in something.
I sighed anxiously as I listen to the continuous "click and clack" sound that he was generating.
Every sound created by the lock, was bringing me to the light.
"Do I want to know the truth?"
"Yes"..
"I'm i scared of what the truth is going to be?"
"Yes"...
"I'm i ready to face the truth?"
"No".
