The boss continues his narration. “You see, this man eventually went home to meet his family neglecting Theo whole pledge he had with us. I know having family is not a bad idea but making them an hindrance to what you sign up for is.And let me tell you, we never rested. Not even for a day. We can’t just lose a skilled hand and money bag like that. He was just too useful for us to let him go just like that so we have to do whatever it takes to either bring him back or have him lose his life.We did some stalking around his family and threatened him but he was just too skilled. We trained a very smart man. He threatened to blackmail us. He was going to reveal any truth we have with him with evidences so that didn’t work on him”Jason saw the man as a good man who was ready to let go of everything but he was wondering why they were telling them so much about such story.The man had a lot to say. “After several threats from him, we know we had to let go of his family because basically,
Jason was thrown off his feet by this revelation. He just couldn’t comprehend what was going on.As soon as the boss were out of sight, the trainees started trooping out and discussing the man. The discussion they were having is not the problem with Jason but their excitement to carry out the job.“I just learnt some new things” one of them said.“Share with us” another responded in a group of five walking beside Jason.“One could be a professional and still not earn much. We haut have to work so hard” the one with the idea said.“I even thought you learnt what I got in there. You pointed out a good lesson but the major thing I see here is not to bite the finger that fed me” another person said.“That makes sense.”“But I am just so excited about the money. I wish I could carry out the task and just get rid of the god forsaken man.” Another man said.Jason was so angry especially seeing them talk about his father like that. It stings him so much that he wish he could punch them in the
Ashley pulled Jason and they started running through the hall way. Jason was surprised at how Ashley pulled off.“Where did you get that?” Jason asked Ashley in surprise.Ashley gave him a smile. “Even before you came, I have been planning my own escape. I just couldn’t sit in there an do nothing you know.”Jason nodded and ask “how do you come about the pepper sauce.”Ashley laughed. “It is from my food. For every food they gave to me, I saved the sauce for a day like this so I won’t have to go through some unnecessary stress.”They both laughed. They were doing this as they run and gasping for breath. They were not too far when they heard the danger alarm rang.Apparently, the body guard, Jose, has rang the alarm to inform them they have an intruder and the hostage is being taking away.As if it wasn’t night again everyone was trooping out and looking for the people. Not long, one person sighted Jason and Ashley and to help the path, the hall way light was put on.Ashley and Jason w
The idea of going to meet Ashley’s mother sit well with Jason and so they went ahead. Although there were uncertainties, they still had to try it out to see for themselves if she was truly Ashley’s mum or someone who just look like her.Jason and Ashley went to the address given to Jason by the private investigator in her hometown. Ashley was scared. She couldn’t bare the thought of her own mother not recognizing her.She had a lot going on in her mind and all she could do was just to let it out to Jason.“I am feeling so nervous. What if she doesn’t recognizes me? Maybe she is truly mentally ill? How will I face her?” Ashley let out the thoughts.“Are you asking me?” Jason said out of clumsiness.“Who else is here with me? You can just be so insensitive sometimes.” Ashley retorted.“I’m sorry Ashley, I just wanted to be sure you needed an answer from me. I don’t mean to hurt your feelings.” Jason tried in his little way to apologize.“If you ask me, I will tell you to calm your nerve
Ashley and her mom was so happy to see each other. After a long time of holding and cheering, they finally let go of each other.“How have you been?” The mother ask in tears.“It has been tough mum” Ashley said looking so sad. “ It has really been tough on me the past few months.”“Especially with the fact that I thought I don’t have a mother. It hurts me thinking that way but since that was what I was told and made to believe so I saw nothing wrong in it. I was made fun of in school and other places for not having a mother but I never thought for a second to question the narrative.”Ashley’s mum understands her but feel sad also because she couldn’t do anything for the child. Her tone was very depressing. “I am sorry Ashley, I should have been a better mother. I should have take care of you better. I should have been there to see you grow up. I am sorry. You don’t have to feel bad for what you can’t control. You are even still too young to understand things and even now, I should be
Ashley’s mother, rested her tone for a while before she continues.“You know, I was expecting your father to deny it. I mean, no one admits to such so easily like your father. He didn’t bat an eyelid rather, he got really angry at me.He was so angry that I was snooping around trying to look for what is not lost. I was hurt by how my husband thinks of me and is so vulnerable to do evil.We got talking for a long time and he was just yelling at me. In his words, he told me how that job was his major source of income and I should have never bothered about it.He made it clear to me that we were living just fine because of that money and I should be grateful he is risking it all to take care of me.Usually I was supposed to get offended by his words but I was just begging for his repentance. I just wanted him to see a reason to drop the job but, he was hard heartened.” As Jason was listening to this, he was just filled with rage and also thoughts on how he can eliminate the enemy— Ashle
Things was happening so fast. He rushed down to the house to see what exactly was happening to his mum and Dad.When he got there, he got a call from the two boys. “Jason where are you?” They asked him. “I am home, I want to meet with my Dad whom I got information was visiting my mum” he answered.“Please don’t go inside yet. You definitely will land yourself into trouble by going in there. You have to stay out.” The boys advised.Jason was confused as to why they would tell him not to go in. “I’m sorry, I do not understand this. I don’t have much time left before I can get to my Dad.”The boys said, “we noticed some strange movement around the house. It is not safe. There was a man or maybe men around”“It is my Dad. That is my home and nothing is wrong” Jason said and before the boys could say further, he dropped the call and immediately went inside.Apparently, the boys has been doing a great job in checking around Jason’s mansion and especially his mother’s house.Jason was so hap
As they were expecting their death, the door to the house suddenly burst opened. Ashley came in through the door and that shocked Jason. The other boys also came in. Trying to get through the fire to where Jason and his parents were. Jason was scared something might happen to them especially with the people from the organization so he asked them to leave.Jason’s mum also told them to go back as well. The fire was too much and those people might still be around.“It is not safe for you to be here. You should leave before they get hold of you.” Jason’s mother said“Ashley, Eric, Mark, please go back. Your safety is more important.” Jason begged also.“We are not leaving here without taking you with us. We are here to rescue the three of you out of the fire so please do not make it any difficult.” Ashley pleaded.Jason’s father saw it as an opportunity even if that would be his last, he just want to save his family. He stood up with the help of Mark and Eric and then Jason and his moth
