You Are Mine

CHAPTER 33

"Ok. Next, Adam isn't owning up to it. Though the evidence proves it, he still denies all. He refuses to even speak" I proceeded to inform.

"He requested to speak with you.. only" Quinn spoke with a hint of hesitation.

Yolanda's whole demeanour immediately changed into a more anxious one.

"If you're ok with it, we can-"

"Alright I will talk to him but not today..." she cut me off, with a hesitant expression.

"I totally understand. Enjoy your day for now. You can give me a call once you're ready" Quinn stated, standing up to leave.

"Alright then. Thank you for your time. We'll inform you of any better news in future" Quinn strode towards the door, with me following behind. He smiled brightly at Yolanda before exiting the house. I turned to face Yolanda once again.

"Many happy returns of the day... again" with that we left the premises.

~Yolanda's POV~

"Why are we here again?" I asked Logan, who had been driving for the past hour and finally halted on the side of the road.

The view outside my window displayed thick, lush green forest. I'm a nature person so I'm at awe at the sight. Though it appeared exquisite, it had an eerie look to it as well.

"Logan?" I asked hesitantly as he got out of the vehicle and over to my side.

He opened the door and awaited patiently for me to step out. I gave him a questioning look, hesitating to step out. What's he up to?

"It's a surprise..." He gave me a cocky grin, gesturing me to out.

"This better be good" I said sassily, rolled my eyes at him.

We walked through the shady, dense forest. The lofty cedar trees stood proudly while the douglas fir tree swayed magnificently with the fresh, earthy breeze. Oh how I wish I could stay here. Maybe I will in future. Being close to nature. Away from the hustle and bustle of life.

I inhaled the clean air and closed my eyes to feel the distinct  atmosphere in the wild.

"Sugarplum, you coming?" Logan asked, interrupting my bonding with mother nature.

I gave him a bored look and continued trailing behind him.

It felt like an hour, even though thirty minutes had just passed.

"Logan! Where are we going?" I whined for the fifth time, irritated by his ignorance.

"Fine. I'm going back" I started, turning my back towards him. I turned to face him again, expecting his forest eyes to be fixated on me.

However, he vanished. Phoof. Gone. He disappeared. Panic surged through me as I thought of where he might be. Is he hiding? Did he leave me and not realize I'm not following behind him anymore? Where did he go?

I swallowed my fear and took a few cautious steps foward, towards the thicket.

I came to an open clearing, my gaze scanning the wonderful scenery. A three foot- wide waterfall descended gracefully into a opaque tan plunge pool of fresh water. It appeared stupendous.

The waters sparkled under the sunlight, making everything bright and scenic. Too engrossed in the moment, I was startled by the screams and applauds coming from my left side.
