"They've just got there, no troubles on the way" I said,

"That's good then" Arii said, "Tayte are you still going see your Mum again?" I looked at him,

"I probably will tomorrow" He answered,

"Okay, well...I'm going to...chill in my room, just call me if you need anything. I'll most probably be watching something" she gave us both a kiss and then ran off,

"So you're going to see your Mum again?"

"Yeah, just to say goodbye properly"

"This isn't goodbye though"

"It is for a while"

"Well, when you go, I'm coming too" I told him "So, can I have some morphine now?"

The phone rang at around 4pm. We were all sat playing Boy/Girl, we all looked at each other, I got up and headed over,

"Hello

I'm sorry to hear about your brother

Who the hell is this?

Mario Galviao and I will find you and you will lead me to your parents, just minus your little brother Noah

Fuck right off. You have no chance.

If you say so, you'll be too busy a crying wreck over the loss of baby brother

Go fuck yourself" I snapped and hung up,

"Keane" I took some deep breaths and grabbed my phone, "Keane" I pressed Noah and it began to ring, "Keane, what the hell?"

"That was Mario Galviao and he just said that Noah's dead and he's going to get us"

"What! Noah's..." Arii trailed off,

"Come on, pick up the fucking phone" It carried on ringing,

"You can't believe him"

"I don't...but Noah's not..."

"Hello, Keane?

Oh thank God, where are you? Are you okay? You have to come home now

I'm okay, Keane what's happened? Are you all okay?

I just got a phone call from Mario Galviao and he told me you were dead

I'm fine. We'll...we'll come home. I'll tell Angelo and we'll head off okay

Okay and please be careful. I love you

Love you too"

"Keane. He knows we're at home" Tayte said,

"I know, I know. Ring your Mum, we're going to stay at yours" he nodded, "Arii, make sure everyone's bags are packed and shove anything else you think we'll need okay"

"Sure thing" She ran off upstairs,

"Mum we're coming to yours okay...no everything's not fine and I will explain when we get there...yes, we will...love you too...yes...see you soon...bye"

"She's panicking, she thinks it's because she told us that bit of information"

"I don't think it had anything to do with that" I said,

"So are we leaving tomorrow then?"

"No, they'd expect us to leave as soon as possible, so we'll wait it out and stay here for the week and then leave, let's not make it easy for them" my phone buzzed,
