Secrets

Chapter three

The man pulled out his phone and started making a video of the money burning.
Meanwhile at Leila's house   every one was worried  ,Leila blaming her husband for not doing  enough to bring back her son ,wondering why Madison was taking too long to come back ,why they only had  a finger of their son sent to them earlier in a small box , a finger which was thrown on ground in disbelief by Leila .
Back then, just after she dropped the finger on floor,  Leila's daughter came running downstairs from her room with a drawing to show  to her mom , she and her husband were   worried that she would get to  see the finger on the ground but luckily enough she didn't see the index finger ,instead she jumped over it unknowingly , her mom immediately took her back upstairs so that she could see what she'd drawn and also to keep her away from all what's happening , inside her daughter's pink painted  room , her daughter asked her where her brother was .

"Remember the English lessons Karim never wanted to take on ,he even had an argument with his dad?"
Leila asked her daughter .

"Yeah, I do remember that argument."

"Karim decided to take the trip to learn English ."

"But he didn't even say goodbye to me, " her daughter Jasmine cried.

"Relax my darling , he will be back soon. "

'Alma,' the maid who had been ordered by Leila's husband to pick up the finger from the ground and had  it to a freezer showed up in Jasmine's room after she was through with her work .

"Take care of her for me please ," Leila begged . " I can not handle all this at once."

"Don't worry madam , I'll make her  sleep ." Alma replied.

"Thank you , I will go out and have a fresh air ."

When she was downstairs , a message came in on her husband's phone , it was a video of the money burning .'Micheal', Leila's brother , 'Helen' Leila's best friend saw it too .

"Oh my god," Leila was in a shock, dropped down on floor  ."They burnt the money , and what now do they want from us ? We gave them money."

"Calm down my dear , lets wait for Madison, " her husband tried to cool her down .

"Where is he now, why should I even calm down ? I want my son , I want my son now. "

"I've been calling him , he is not picking. "

"I want my son , I want my son back. "

After the man had sent the video of the burning money  to a number that was given to him  , he made sure that   every paper was  burnt, when certain that everything was burnt , then decided to continue further in the woods as he made a call to the one who sent him to do all what he did .

"Aldo," he spoke up ."  I did the job as you asked me to."

"Well done Fred ," Aldo replied . "But are you sure no one is following you ?" he asked .

Fred looked behind but couldn't see anyone following at least not in his view

"No one , "  Fred was certain , "I was extremely careful ," he later  hanged up .

Madison followed him again and as he was walking after him ,he  happened to step on a dry fallen stick , it cracked , made a sound , Fred turned around and pulled out his gun to see what it was all about but could not see anyone ,  decided to take precautions, slowly he came back looking through from one tree after another , Madison knew he would do so , so he decided to sit still behind one tree and only to realize a gun on his head .

"Who are you ?" Fred asked .

"Take it easy man, "  fearlessly , Madison turned his face and looked at Fred .
