All his search was in vain neither could he contact her through the phone. It was getting even intenser than expected. Rodger decided to reach out to Natalie if she had gotten in touch with Alex.Her response was “no” because they weren't letting anyone visit for the meantime. Furthermore, she informed that Jason was over there.“What if he's dead, and they're trying to hide it?” Rodger thought out loud, and Natalie quickly tamed his words.“No! He's not dead, let's be positive, please… Rodger” she beckoned, sniffing as her tone was sober and terrifying.Her eyes kept glancing at the sign post hug at the gate of the prison which wrote;“Stay positive for a change”“My Alex is alive Rodger” she whispered rubbing the back of her neck gently while gulp hard.Her heart was aching, and her breath was becoming slow. She hadn't rested since her return, and the thought of not seeing Alex made her worried.“I'm coming over there Natalie, you should return home now”“No I can't, I…” She shut he
Meanwhile, Rodger had hurried to the prison yard, haven realized that Natalie hung up on him. He needed to be there with her. When he arrived, he couldn't see Natalie, and it got him worried.Rodger had to call her to confirm if she was alright. She responded and told him that she found her way inside the prison and would give him feedback if she sees Alex.That was a relief, Rodger intended to leave the correctional center to leave for his search when he sighted Jason walking out of this place with smiles.He wasn't recognized or perhaps sighted by Jason, who was rushing out. This man was making a phone call and the only words Rodger heard before this man pass him by was;“Inject him, he would confess without knowing”Rodger was curious over who Jason was talking to. He didn't have time to figure out more about this Jason. Just immediately Jason pass him by, Natalie's call came through.“Rodger, I can't find him anywhere and the inmates aren't saying where he is” she muffled on the p
9 hours ago.Alex had gotten out from the detention room where Lucian was locked up. He had a sad gaze on and his steps were steady and heavy.He had to rest his back on the wall out of shock. Now it was up to him to keep his promise to Lucian that he was going to help him get out of the center by noon today.A brief sigh left him as he placed his hands on his thigh, bent silently, and then shook his head wildly. Lucian had told him what he needed to know about the old man.Alex intended to speak with Rodger, but it was late, and he guessed would be asleep from the stress of last night. It was already 1am, which was a new dawn.At every intersection of the prison house, they were gates and guards standing in between. Each of the gates were opened for him. His bar was located in block B in the second floor, and he needed to walk pass 4 gates before getting there.Kim met him at the second gate and waved to him, but Alex didn't respond and just walk pass the lonely lad.He mused at Alex
“What's wrong with him?” Cynthia asked, adjusting the collar of her lab coat and rolling her eyes around.“Scared of syringes, maybe he thought you were coming to give him that” Natalie snapped, tugging her hands in the pockets of the shirt she had on. She slides the nose mask off her and then inhaled.Natalie needed oxygen as her soul wasn't inside her, but she made every effort to be brave if she wants to see Alex alive.“Have you found him?” Cynthia questioned with fixed eyes on the route which Kim took, and Natalie shook her head negatively.Cynthia could see that she was in so many pains yet still fought to see the man she loves. That man should be lucky to have someone who cares and could give up her life for him.“I will help you in whatever way I can” she assured, placed a palm on Natalie's shoulder and then Natalie gasped as a question rang in her head.“What kind of injections makes one unconscious?”“Midazolam injections" She responded with a curious gaze at Natalie who fin
As soon as Cynthia had taken Natalie away from the warden, she exhaled deeply and said;“Your suspicion was right, he was abducted” she confirmed and Natalie wailed in her heart.“Did he tell you where exactly he was taken to?” Natalie asked in a hast as she was curious and anxious over him.“No, he didn't” she muttered, swallowing hard and then shoved her face away from Natalie.Natalie gasped sadly, telling Cynthia that her husband would know if she could just make him speak.“I can't make him speak because I don't get my hands engaged in his stuff… I wish I could help” she professed, suddenly walking pass her slowly.“Please, Cynthia, I need your help just this once…”“It's also hard for me, I'm sorry, but this is how far I can go, if the warden tells Jason I was with you, do you know how dangerous it would be for me, at least consider others and not just yourself” Cynthia unexpectedly spoke staring at her; which made Natalie down-spirited.Wasn't she the one who told Natalie that
Meanwhile, Rodger had been tailing on the car Jason rode in. He had found something quite suspicious with him and made up his mind to follow the young man.There were three dark cars tailing on each other, and Rodger kept a close eye on them while he drove and avoided being distracted by other motorists. However, when they got to an intersection, they split up, confusing the curious man on whom to tail on.He growled in frustration as he missed the chance of getting closer to Jason. He had to derail from the road, and halt his car somewhere beside the road.It was now that his eyes met his phone, which had been beeping continuously. A silent hiss left his lips as he decided to answer the call.“Natalie…”“Rodger, oh, thank goodness you finally answered your call, I got some findings about Alex” she muffled in a hast as her footsteps entered the background.He could perceive that she was running, he beckoned on her to give him a lucid detail.“Damn! I suspected that Jason… I heard him
It took time for the warders to take Natalie out of the way because she was weakened and couldn't move a muscle.She was still devastated where she was when suddenly someone tapped her from behind. Natalie hesitated to take a look at whom it could be, as she wasn't thinking straight, and her mind was void.This girl was subconscious where she stood crying and lamenting. The weary girl wiped her tears and shoved her face at who touched her. Shockingly, it was Rodger. She was left agape as her heart beat ceased its function for a moment. Could she be seeing his ghost?Natalie shuddered and attempted to assume it was a ghost, but he held her hand and said;“I'm alive Natalie… it's me, Rodger, see” he buttressed shoving his fingers across her stuttering eyes and staring at her.She was still puzzled when he hugged her passionately to confirm that he was alive and injury by the crash, but how could that be? He must have been the one calling on the phone, but because she was petrified, she
“It's okay Natalie, you're making me scared because with your tears, it's as though I'm dead” he teased, and she chuckled but then ceased instantly.“I'm just, well, scared” she confessed blinking her eyes to chase away the tears that desired to roll off. Rodger had to explain that he got a call from his mother earlier and the tracker was directed under the bridge, but he lost her due to distraction; because of the loud crash he had at the top of the bridge.Natalie narrated to him about the sudden behavior between Kim and Cynthia and what she thinks must have probably led to the change in character.“Did you say he ran away when sighting… Cynthia?”“Yes” she mused as Rodger was trying to get an understanding.“And you think it's because he feared injections? If he was scared of injections, he would have run away while sighting you also, along with other nurses passing by” he buttressed cracking his brain for a lucid evaluation of the issue.Natalie narrowed her brows at him, wonderin
