Chapter 2-Abandoned
(Sage's p.o.v)
The next morning, I woke up noticing that I was still on the floor from last night. Realizing I passed out from all the crying. I got up and walked to the bathroom, I looked into the mirror, staring at my face. My eyes were so puffy from crying myself to sleep.
Suddenly, my sadness turned into anger, before I realized it, my hand was bleeding from punching the mirror.
I walked into the hallway, looking around trying to get my mind off things. The walls that used to have her pictures on them were gone, leaving only mines remaining. I punched the wall forgetting my hand was already cut, the blood dripping down the wall. I didn't have the energy to clean it off and continued to walk down the stairs. Everything else in the house remained: the couches, the table, and the flowers we bought a few weeks ago. I couldn't believe it, my mother left me leaving only a letter behind. I walked towards the living room where the large flower vase stood. I put my hand up against it, crying because it was my last good memory with my mother, but I couldn't stop myself from breaking it. After breaking nearly everything in the house, I fell to the ground holding my head.
I thought to myself, instead of taking my anger out on the house, I should go and find my mother. I headed upstairs to take a shower and got dressed. I went to my room to look up all the places my mother usually goes. I started pointing out where I should start and I decided to go to her job first.
I ran to the car and nearly jumped in it. I noticed Rosie coming up the block. I decided to call out to her. As she got into the car.
"Any news yet?" she asked as she put on her seat belt.
"Nothing yet" I sighed.
"Should we call the police?" Rosie asked.
"Let's go to her job first", I replied.
I was deep in thought. I wanted to find clues about my mother first. I contemplated on what I should do, if I was to find my mother. I couldn't come up with anything; all I could think about was the angry inside me overflowing.
30 minutes later, we stopped in front of the college my mother worked at as a biology professor. I enter the building, walking towards the security guard. Since I always used to come here, when I was young the whole college staff knew me; the security guard called the Dean's office as he allowed me to walk through the hallway. The Dean stood in front of the door welcoming me in, and Rosie followed behind.
"Hello, Ms. Young," he said with a smile on his face.
I wasn't in the mood to smile back and just started talking.
"Is my mother here?" I said as I stood by the door.
"No, yesterday morning she put in her resignation letter and left". He said as he stood there confused. "I thought you would have known, I mean you are her daughter".
"She left me! "I yelled as loud as I could.
He stood here more confused.
"What do you mean she left you". He said
"Her clothes, her room's furniture, everything she owns is gone and she left me behind! "I continued
"She told me you were going to live with your grandparents", he said.
I couldn't believe what I was hearing; I unconsciously slammed my hands on his desk yelling.
" What grandparents!, I have no other family, but her!," I yelled.
Before he could finish talking to me, I ran out of his office. I was enraged. I started punching the walls in the school, as the security guard came to see what was happening, I ran out of the building.
Thoughts started racing through my mind as I walked back. I sat there trying not to cry, because there were too many people in the hallway with me. Rosie pulled my hand as we walked towards the car, but I couldn't speak while all the tears were coming out.
She decided to drive instead and drove toward her house.
"Any news about your dad?", I asked.
"Nothing yet, I think we should head to the police station, just in case." She said,
We turned around and drove towards the police station 15 mins aways from our current location. Rosie and I walked into the station and was immediately met by an officer.
"How may I help you young ladies", the tall pale skinned man said, while having a friendly smile.
"We would like to report two missing persons", I said.
The officer looked and put his hand out toward his desk and guided us to it.
"Missing persons report I see, who are you trying to report", he asked as he grabbed a notebook.
"My mother and her father", I pointed at Rosie.
"Hmm I'm going to need your parents name , and how long have they been missing?", he asked while writing.
" 24 hours, and my dads name is Nathan Williams, Rosie said.
The officer looked at Rosie.
"And your mother's name, ma'am?" He said, looking at me.
"Peyton Young", I responded.
"Any chance those two are dating?", the officer responded unconcerned.
"No, my dad has a girlfriend ", Rosie stated.
"And her name is?" The office said.
"Sarah Coley," she replied.
"As far as I know, my mother hasn't been dating for a long time", I said as I tried to remember something. "But lately I notice a blue suv coming and leaving from the house, but I've never seen the person personally." I continued on.
The officer jotted down a few notes.
"Do you know the make and model of the car," he asked.
I thought to myself trying to remember, " I believe it was a Toyota but I don't remember the model" I said.
"And um we forgot to mention the fact all of their belongings are gone, like they vanished without a trace gone." Rosie said while having a concerned look.
The officer's eyebrow raised as he took in all the information.
"Any debts that you know of" he asked.
"Not that we know of sir." Rosie and I said at the same time.
While the office jotted down some notes, another officer came and asked for their description as he wrote down notes on a notepad.
"Let's give it another 24 hours, and see if they show up", the other officer said.
We got up from the sit chair and walked to the door. I then remembered that we forgot to ask the officer's name.
"Wait", I told Rosie, and went back to the officer.
"Sorry sir, I didn't get your name". I asked
"Oh sorry young lady, my name is detective Charles Anderson", he said. As he shook my hand again.
I smiled and walked towards the door and left out.
Rosie suggested we go to the park where we always go to practice, so we can calm our nerves. We headed to the park a block away from the house.
"Should we try a search party?" she asked while she looked around.
"Let's see if the officers find anything first" I said.
"Okay", she said. As we pulled into the park.
"You want to do a little jogging" Rosie said as she tried to chill me up.
"Sure," I said.
"Wait let's go grab your crossbow" she said as she went back and got it out of the trunk.
When I first started using crossbows it was too heavy to carry all the way home, so Rosie decided I could keep the spare one in the car for when she goes practicing and the park or the training field.
In the park, while deciding on what to do. We chose to crave a target sign into the trees and shoot arrows into them. Rosie started to line bottles and cans along the sidewalk and told me to back up and try to snipe them from a far distance. We laughed as I started to back up. Thump! The cans were made as I knocked them down one by one.
I started walking towards Rosie laughing at the silly dances she was doing. I noticed a tall dark skin man standing next to one of the trees watching me. He started walking towards me, and I started to speed up as the distance closed in. The man looked at a woman who was sitting inside a suv, "Wait", I turned as I looked back and he pointed at us. "That's the suv Rosie", I yelled to Rosie. I ran towards Rosie telling her to run back to the car. She looked back as the man started to get closer. Rosie ran towards me and grabbed my hand, as we tried to get away; the man had already caught up to us.
Bam! Was the last thing I heard as I fell to the ground?
Hours later, Rosie and I woke up inside of a room. The room was kind of small, with blue walls and one window and a bathroom connected to it. I looked around as my eyes were starting to clear up more. The woman sat in front of us in a chair.
"What the hell is this?" Rosie yelled.
"Shh, "I said as I tried to tap her but noticed our hands were tied.
"What do you want from us?" I asked.
"Your mother," she said. "She stole my money"
"What do you mean your money", I said as I tried to sit up.
"That bitch disappeared," Rosie said while getting upset.
"she disappeared after selling her daughter to me." She said,
I sat there shocked but realized I didn't have the energy to even care. "Well can you let Rosie go and you can do whatever you want with me!" I screamed.
"Hell no!" Rosie yelled at me "I would never leave you alone in this."
"Don't worry" the woman said, "because you were also sold to me" she said, looking down at Rosie.
