Ch. 11Chapter 11


I went to the place where they were sleeping in case they weren't there, I went to the small kitchen but they weren't there either, I was nervous because they weren't here because if they wanted to go somewhere or if they were leaving they would tell me

I searched the house but they really weren't there, I went back to their room there, I didn't notice it was a mess.

I left their room and went to my room, I was shaking because I was nervous

Where are my parents? Why is their room a mess?

I just sat down because my knees were weakening, I looked around my room, I saw a letter near the cabinet.

I immediately stood up and took it, I opened the letter

'If you want to see and survive the parents you recognize, go to this place'

That's what I read in the letter it also said where the place I was going, I was even more terrified and nervous

I immediately got up and left the house, I ran and ran until I reached the boat, I did not even bother to close the house

Just a few minutes later, a tricycle passed by. I immediately stopped it and rode, I also told where to go, it was quite far from here.

When we arrived at the place I said I immediately gave my payment, the driver also left when I looked around I was even more nervous because it is an abandoned place with no people it's a bit dark there is also a light case nearby to give up

I even walked in, it looked like it used to be a house but now it was abandoned, I was scared and nervous.

Suddenly I looked behind me as I felt like someone was there, but when I faced there was nothing ,,,, maybe I was just looking back, so I immediately returned my eyes to the front but-

When I turned to the front, a hard object suddenly hit my head, causing my vision to gradually darken.

***

I was dizzy because of the noise of the people, I felt my headache as if it was being torn ,, Where am I?

I opened my eyes and saw a man sitting in front of me, he was fourteen and a little old, maybe my father's age.

"You're awake" he said, obviously I'm awake, need to say more?

"Where am I? Where are my parents?" I asked. I tried to move my hands but I didn't realize that my hands were tied as well as my feet.

I rolled my eyes but why doesn't it seem like the abandoned place I went to, before I fainted

'"How do you make sure they're really your real parents?'" There was a playful grin on his lips as he spoke.

"What are you saying, Gurang, what right do you have to question me if I'm really sure that they are my parents." to the question of this gurang

'"Oww my Dear beloved, How can you say so you don't even know because you don't remember'" he smiled, Dear there I struggled to be tied to me ,,, I'm disgusted with the man in front of me and things he says

"What do you mean? Where are my parents? Did you take them?" I asked angrily, I was also in tears.

'' Calvin Lewis '' .P. O. V.

Seeing her Smiling and laughing makes me falling in love with her

I don't want to deny it, I don't know when it started, but as time goes on I feel deeper, And I don't want to hide these feelings towards from Her.

Tomorrow I'll confess my feelings to Her

I smiled unexpectedly at what I thought, and at the same time I felt so kinda nervous

'' Airelle '' .P. O. V.

'' 'They're not real parents'' it says without emotion

'"Why who are you? Do you know me? Do you know my parents?"' Angry if shouted here

'"Yes I know you, I really know you my Granddaughter'" she said which further confused me

Granddaughter? Niya Ako ?? ....

"What are you saying? Let me out of here? Get my parents out?" I shouted angrily, not affecting what she said.

'"They are not your parents, because I only took care of them after the accident that caused the death of your Real parents and the cause of the loss of All your Memory, Grandson.'" It said emphatically, I don’t believe him because maybe it just makes me believe

"That's not true, they are my parents, I'm not your grandson" I shouted

"Believe me Grandpa, the parents you consider are the ones I trust to be our housemates'" he explained, he motioned for the blackened and armed men on the side to remove the rope from my hand and foot.

"If what you're saying is true? Why are you sending me to an abandoned place? Why did someone hit my head?"

"I'm sending you to an abandoned place because it looks like we're having a thrill meeting. Grandpa, I'm sure you hit you on the head. I really ordered that in case you get worried" "the old man said with a wide smile

"I see you told me eh ,, You don't even believe me ... I'm your grandfather so believe me, maybe it's not enough that we look alike Grandpa '" he asked and he pointed at his face and my face so forever that I winced

'"Why did my parents die? How did you become Grandpa?'" I asked

'"There is something important that your parents are going to go to in case something unexpected happens ,, crashed into a big truck ... My son died and that was your mommy, your daddy also died but it's good because you're alive but you're not remember ... After that incident, I first took care of you with our housemate and his wife who knew if they would take care of you and not leave you so I entrusted you to them, Grandpa '"he said sadly so little by little I believed
"What? Are you upset? Did you sniff the cat, Gurang?" I asked, I think I'm going to lose my mind here with the old man.

"Are you sure you're Grandpa? Why isn't it obvious because you're not too old?" I added, confused.

"It's really like that, Grandpa, when you're handsome. It's in our race" "he said with a smile.

'"I still don't believe I'm your Grandson'" Can't believe I said

'"All right ,,, Did your supposed parents tell you what their names are?'" He asked, shaking me because even though I used to ask their full names they didn't tell me
