Episode 63
“ Don't you think we should call the cops?" Simone asked. “No..we won't call anyone!" Annie replied. “How the hell are we gonna get him back then!?" Simone exclaimed.
Annie smiled and winked at him. “Wait no, No. There's no fucking way I'm doing that!” Simone said. Annie smirked and continued driving. “No, Hell No!!" Simone yelled..
After a long ride, They finally reached a house and parked. “He stays here?" Simone asked. “Yeah, common. Let's go see him now” Annie said and alighted from the vehicle. Simone gulped and made the cross sign before finally alighting from the vehicle.
He followed Annie feebly as they both approached the house slowly. Annie went to the door and knocked. There was no response..“He's not Here, maybe we should head back now? " Simone asked. “chill dude, He's surely in. His car's right there!" Annie said pointing at Phil's car.
“Oh, okay..” Simone replied. “He is probably sleeping or..oh hey Phil! " Annie said when the door opened and a man stepped out.
“Annie?, Is everything okay? " Phil asked. “Let's go in?" Annie asked. “Sure common in. Who's this guy?" He asked pointing at Simone. “He's a friend..” Annie replied. “Okay, Common in.." Phil said and walked back in.
Annie and Simone followed him..they all walked in and sat in his living room. “How are your kids?" Phil asked Annie. “They're fine thanks..” She replied. “I know it's so hard living without their father. Am so sorry dear.." Phil said soberly.
“So what's it that brings you here. Thought you already left the city?" Phil asked. “The dude has kidnapped Ace!" Annie said. “Just as I feared it would turn out! " Phil lamented. “How in the world did he manage to Get him?" He asked. “A friend of his sold him out!" Annie replied.
Phil stared at Simone and cleared his throat. “we need to do something before it gets too late! " Phil said. “that's exactly why am here.. ” Annie replied.
“Good, what do we have?" Phil asked. “Him..." Annie said and pointed at Simone. He gulped and stares at them meekly. “Just this dude?" Phil asked.
“Yeah, just him.." Annie said. “Well, he might look like a weakling on the inside and be a soldier on the inside. How good are you boy?" Phil asked him.
“I'm pretty good. I've once saved a five year from drowning and an Old woman from getting hit by a drunk driver!" Simone said. “Well, Ace's gonna die!! " Phil exclaimed...
“I haven't done anything like this before!" Simone whispered to Annie as they exited Phil's place. “Just follow the rules and make no mistake. You're gonna be good!" Annie said. “I can't believe I blindly accepted to do it. I'm just gonna get my self killed!" Simone exclaimed.
“You're such a pussy!" Annie said angrily. “Sorry but am just a Stupid guy who isn't fit for what He's about to step into!" Simone said. “I'm not buying any of your shitty talks. Get your ass in the car!" Annie said and got in.
Simone reluctantly got in the car and they Zoomed off. “Where to now?" He asked as Annie drove. “To my place, I need to go grab some things real quick! " Annie said.
“Okay, let's go.." Simone replied. Annie continued driving in silence for some while. “You're married? " She asked pointing at the ring in his hands. “Was..my wife left me when I couldn't meet her needs anymore!" Simone replied. “What!, that's the craziest thing have ever heard. Sorry to say this, but your ex wife was one hell of a gold digger!" Annie exclaimed.
“maybe..I still love her though and would like to be with her once more.." Simone said. “That's so sweet. That's why you should do this. We'll surely pay you something if we get Ace back..." Annie said. “Ace has sent me some money, that was how I was able to find. His place.." Simone said.
“Where exactly did you meet him?" Annie asked. “At a bank..” Simone replied. “Weird, Ace doesn't guard banks.." Annie said. “Yeah, He wasn't actually working there. He said he came for something blablabla..” Simone said. “Well, He's a cop. Maybe he Came to see someone.." Annie said.
“Yeah, I think so.." Simone said. “But the Bank exploded same night too though.. " Simone added. “Oh, it was that bank?!" Annie exclaimed. “Yeah, we luckily escaped without a single scratch!" Simone said.
“Oh my God!" Annie exclaimed. “The People behind this are still yet to be found. Not even a single clue to who they were has been released!" Simone said.
“They ruined my only chance of getting a decent job. Thanks to Ace who was kind enough to send me about twenty thousand dollars!" Simone added. “Ace sent him so much money!?. I really hope it's not what am thinking!" Annie thought.
“It Doesn't matter now though.. " she said. “Pardon? " Simone asked. “Saving him now is all that matters! " Annie replied. “Yeah, He's such a nice man. He's worth risking it!" Simone said. Annie smiled awkwardly and continued driving.
They reached Annie's place few minutes later. The house look deserted and warnings hanged everywhere forbidding anyone to enter. One particular sign gave Simone chills. “Emm, it says here. Any trespasser might get shot if spotted keep off!" Simone reads out. “Forget about the signs, let's go in!" Annie said.
Simone gulped and followed her meekly. They got to the front door and it was locked with over five locks. “Thank God it's locked, let's go now!" Simone said eagerly.
“I'm sick of your built shits!. Follow me silly!" Annie said and walked to the back yard. Simone followed her frantically shivering in fear. They reached a plain wall and Annie suddenly pushed a block.
A door shape suddenly slid open. “I wasn't expecting that!" Simone said completely flattered at the sight. “Let's go.." Annie said and walked in. Simone took his time to make the cross sign once more. He took a very deep breath, and finally walked in.
