Come Back to Me

Seventeen

Savannah

I was sitting on the couch having my hands on my hair while I was waiting for news from the police or someone else

"Savannah" I felt someone touching my back, I turned and I watched George standing behind me, I ran and locked inside his arms and started crying "It's okay I am here now and we're going to find him"

"Where is he?" I asked crying, I was feeling his hand on my hair stroking them softly trying to give me some strength but I know that something bad has happened to Knox

I looked at George that he kissed my hair and he tried to smile at me

"I am here now! Have a seat and try to relax! The police is doing their job and Knox will be home soon" George nodded smiling

My phone rang and I turned there, the ID was writing Unknown, I looked at George that he nodded at me

I picked up the call

"Hello?"

"Mom!" I heard Knox from the other side of the phone and my heart started beating fast

"Baby!" I said smiling

"Give us 10 million euros and you'll have him!" A voice that was creepy but funny said

"Where is he?" I asked

"You know that he's alive so we want the money, we're gonna communicate again and no police!" The person hanged up and I looked at my dad

"He wants 10 million euros to bring Knox" I just said

"I'll call the bank" My dad stood up

"Good idea" Detective Campell said and we looked at her "We have to locate the call"

"What Detective Campell says is that we're gonna cut them and arrest them" Detective Smith added

"The voice said no police" I replied "I don't Knox get hurt"

"I have an idea" Detective Campell said

A few minutes later boxes came into a house carrying by some people, as they let them down and opened from the two boxes the two detectives appeared

"Hello again" Detective Smith said "Now he does know that we are here with you!"

From two small boxes a woman grabbed a computer and some others machines and set them on the dining table

"Miss Stroll your phone" The woman said to me and I gave her my phone "We're gonna locate the call when they'll call you"

"Okay" I nodded, George kissed my hair "Do you think that we'll find him?" I whispered

"Yeah and he'll be fine" George agreed whispering as well "I want you to stay as much calm as you can I can't see you like that"

My phone rang and I looked at Detective Campell that made me a nod to pick up the phone, the phone was on a base and I picked up the call

"Yes?" My voice was trembling

"Miss Stroll hello again! So we need talk about the location and time of the exchange"

"Okay" I nodded

Detective Smith came to my ear and whispered me to try to talk as much as I can so we can locate them

"How-How Knox is? I need to know that he's fine" I said looking at the laptop where the woman was working to locate them

"Knox is absolutely fine having fun here in Istanbul"

"Istanbul?!" I said in shock "In Turkey?"

"That's the only one I know! You are too stupid to be a manager!"

I try to win as much time as I can to locate them

"Where and when?" I asked

"Tomorrow at midnight in Ayasofya Üçyüzlü Çeşmesi it's next to Saint Sophia"

"We always talk about Istanbul and Turkey?" I asked and the woman nodded "Okay bye"

I hanged up and I looked at her that she was smiling
kind of sad

"They are on the air somewhere in Spain" The woman answered "Istanbul is 14 hours from here so they didn't arrive yet"

"I'll call the Airport of Istanbul to check every flight that arrives there to find Knox, I'll send photos" Detective Smith walked away to make the call

"I'll call the bank and the pilot to tell that we're leaving for Istanbul" My dad said and walked away

"Lawrence I'll give the money don't worry" I looked at George "I have them and I can give them for Knox"

"You sure?" My dad asked

"Yeah 10 millions are okay for my son"
