Jason did everything within his power to convinced them to allow him go. They have no other option so they agreed to him going.He was told the necessary things by Caleb so it was not so difficult for him to go by. He was grateful for this luck that he has since he began the digging. Definitely, God was with him.Jason didn’t hesitate in getting Ashley’s food from the kitchen as instructed. The food was to be moved in a trunk. Jason was swift about this and he was eager to meet her.He was full of anxiety. He couldn’t imagine what he would meet. He will be disappointed if it is not Ashley but with the men’s description of attitude, Ashley can be that vile and brutal if she has to be. Especially if anything was heard about what would hurt her or someone close.He can’t be so certain till he gets himself there and get to talk to her.He moved the trunk to her door and saw how anxious he was. He couldn’t open the door for the fear of uncertainty and the key card handed to him for access
Jason followed them as they go and it was all headed in a hall that contained them all. Jason mixed into their midst to be on a safer side.He looked at the big hall and saw the radiant faces. They were all happy being there that he wondered why.With the look, Jason came to the opinion that they were not in trouble rather, they are in there for good news.There were noises from chatter in the hall and that was somehow. They usually don’t talk to one another when working.This made him realize that they actually talk a lot amidst themselves. He was still in this thought when every voice went down.Jason got himself back from thoughts and he looked to the podium. He was surprised to see who was on the podium.Why is everyone silent? Who is his body guard? Why do everyone respect him this much? Jason’s mind kept wandering about in different thoughts.He possibly could not ask anyone because it looks somehow and also everyone was silent at the same time.Jose wanted to started talking s
Jason’s tone couldn’t hid his nervousness. Calling the boys was almost a reflex. It was just the only thing he could think of.Before the boys came into the picture, he would have called Ashley first on such situation. Jason was so tensed and feeling all pressured.His hands were trembling and he had to he his phone tight to his ear so it won’t fall off. “Jason, I don’t get what you say” that was the voice of Mark. “Do you Eric?”Eric responded negatively also. “I don’t understand… killer, organization, Jason talk to us” they tried to make him talk.“Guys the organization that we are working for is an organization that I can’t explain. They kill people, they train killers and pay them!” Jason said trembling.Eric noticed… “Jason, are you okay? Your voice seems shaky”Jason couldn’t bring himself to say anything. When the boys saw something was terribly going on, they had to urge him to speak to them.“Jason, what did you see in there and how did you figure out it was a killer organiza
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
