Chapter 17

So after I told my wife and others the location and some of what Noah said to me ... here we are, inside a plane that's going to take us to my daughter .. well to Pompeii for now.

The first plan was for me to sit in the car when we get there while my wife, Donald and the guards with detective Marion will go inside and get my daughter but my darling wife knows me too well and had said no, that I wouldn't stay in the car even if they beg me to and then she begin to plead for me to stay home with mom, Blair and Green but no fucking way am I gonna listen to that .. and yeah, I didn't so detective Marion came up with a great idea which includes me coming and also getting to see my baby and I'm so cool with that.

As the plane stopped at the planned destination, my wife began leading me to the car. We all entered and now we're heading to Noah Cancio's secret house.

I know you'll be wondering, How come is this boy who's just twenty two this rich? .. well all you need to do is browse his surname. You see, Noah's father and mother were very rich. When they died in a plane crash, all of their wealth went to their only child that the world knows .. which is Noah Cancio and the reason why I'm his childhood friend is because my mom was their housekeeper. I practically grew up in that house .. so did Blair said.

"Le.." Claire called when I grabbed her hand so tightly not knowing why, the same way I don't know why my head is hurting so much.

"Claire, it hurts .. make it go away, it feels like someone is pounding on my head .. please make it go away.." I said to her and at the same time fighting myself to stay conscious and strong.

"Le, Leila!! Claire yells loudly, sounding so frightened which makes my heart skip a bit.

"Sono qui." I said half unconsciously but then hugged her as her eyes looked so panicked.

"My God, your eyes were going to shut itself .. what happened? Claire said, still sounding so frightened.

"Le, why didn't you tell me you've been getting these feelings before .. you could have fainted or worse, have a convulsion. I am not with any tools and I don't know any hospital, I don't know anywhere here. Why are you always stubborn, i f you had stayed at home I'm sure mom would have.." Claire keeps on voicing out her worries and although she's not yelling, I know that she's angry but I'm not gonna argue with her because I know she was frightened and she still is. She would have kept on voicing her concerns and complaints if Donald hadn't palm her hand and asked me if I am ok and I said yes which made Donald say to her..

"She's ok now Nikoleta." But my stubborn wife who doesn't know that she's stubborn refuses to believe any of it and had instructed the driver to drive and to only stop if it's in front of a hospital but I disagreed.

Even if she's stubborn, she's not as stubborn as me and that's why I'm now in front of Noah Cancio's house knocking on his front door.

So the plan is for me to come here, knock and then enter as if everything is normal since Noah didn't know of my accident or my whereabouts which also means that his family members too wouldn't and no one will suspect that my true intention of coming back is to take my daughter away from them.

I hope this works.
