Damien's POV .
" What do you mean we can't go in now ? " - I sat up .
" She got kidnapped yesterday Damien , just yesterday and you expect there to be a full on search ? Don't act as if you don't know what goes on in these types of situations . I know you want to find her but so do I , her mom is a dear friend of mine and I have a gigantic responsibility to look after her while she's under my own children's wings . " - Mom stated .
" You don't get it , I don't know what's going through her mind right now and --- " -
" You have to listen to mom , we are all worried about her too but we can't do anything until that forty - eight hours . "- My fists clench as there is no way for me to express my worry .
I only got to breathe normally when her scent engulfs me but just gets me worried the more .
No body gets it . Nobody does !
* knock , knock *
" Are you in there , Damien ? "-
" Leave me alone ! " - I yell crawling into her bed .
" You know the door isn't even locked right ? " -
" That doesn't mean you are still invited in . " -
" And if I may remind you , this isn't your room . " the right side at the bottom of the bed sinks .
" I want to be left alone , Stephanie . " -
" You know , you could use this two days to your advantage . Even though she has been kidnapped , her memories hasn't been . Let her memories be your fuel . Imagine Damien , Imagine the fueled up determination in you when the time comes . " -
" Where's Raid ? " - I ask
" Disappeared when mom arrived , haven't seen him since morning . " -
" Good . "-
" Do you want to hear a story about Pakeeza's family ? " -
" I guess I have to listen if you insist . " - I take one of the pillows to hug while I pretend not to be eager about listening to the story .
She smiles .
" I could just go if you don't want to listen . "- she intentionally gets up because she just wants me to beg her .
Annoying .
" Fine , please tell me . "- I sit up .
" Ok ... if you insist , " - she laughs .
" I wasn't actually there when it happened but Pakeeza told me something that happened at her house when a boy from our class went there for their project work . " -
" How old was she ? "-
" Hmm ... maybe 13 or 14 "-
" So she wasn't a Muslim at that time then ? " - I whisper to myself .
" Yeah , pretty much . "- I guess it wasn't that of a whisper after all .
" So they were in their living room when they hear a knock on the door .
Malik goes to check , seems to take a while but eventually comes back with a boy in toll "
*******
"Who's there , Malik " - Shayari yells .
" There's a boy ~ " - As if on cue all six of them rush to the door to have a look .
Pakeeza determined to save the boy from the ambush , forcefully went by them and shielded the boy annoyed .
" I thought I had told you guys that I'll be having someone over for our project work . " - she humphed .
" But you didn't tell us it was a boy , Phoebe . "
*******
" Wait , wait ... wait , she was called Phoebe . " -
" Duh , Every convert must have had a name before . " -
" Don't make me smack your mouth , Stephanie . "
"Fine ... sorry , you just ruined a good story . " -
" phoebe ... " -
" Damien , I just have to say this but this I don't know your in love phase if I should call it but it is very concerning. I've never seen a man in love act the way you do . "
" And how many men do you know ? " -
" Enough to know they don't act like this . " - She points at me .
" Just continue the story Stephanie , I stopped you to ask a question not to question my feelings . " -
She smiles .
*******
" How could I tell you with the way you guys act ! " -
" Fine ? he can come in " - Pakeeza wanted to pull the shy boy in but was afraid of his sister and her friends' reaction making a smile appear on her face .
" Mom ! " -
" What is it Phoebe ? " - Miss Angelina asks from the kitchen .
" I have a boy visitor ! " - she yelled back in response .
" Shayari ! Kelvin ! Jared ! Maya ! Beatrice !Malik ! Could you guys help me in the kitchen ! "
She smiled avoiding their looks .
" So what do you think about a pyramid made out of popsicle sticks and paper ? "- she suggests .
The shy boy nodded .
Pakeeza run into the kitchen and brought out all what they needed .
One hour later ...
Each of them intentionally kept passing by until they all decided to obligatory watch French news on a channel I never knew they watched in the living room of all places .
* sigh *
Pakeeza getting exhausted .
" I think that's enough , I'll finish the rest . " - she gets up and escorts him out .
Shaking her head when she saw six figures by the window , she dragged her feet inside .
" If you guys don't stop what you are doing , I'll run away one day . " - I stated .
" Run away ? Phoebe Lee get your body upstairs and arrange all your clothes in the chronological colours of the rainbow . " -
" But --- "-
" Get started , Phoebe . "-
" Beatrice ! " -
" Awww , just go okay and I promise to get you ice cream . "- she nodded and headed upstairs .
" * laughs * Hurry back down and let's order pizza okay . The pyramid looks amazing ! " - Shayari smiled at her sister .
" okay ! " Pakeeza rushes upstairs .
*******
Three days later .
" You guys ready for this ? " - We nodded getting behind him . Raid and I confidently walking in .
" Detective Raid ! " - The commissioner announces .
" let's go to my office . " - We follow , setting all our plans and background stories in place .
We came out as he gathered all of the department workers .
" As you have already been informed about the disappearance of Miss . Pakeeza Lee but as requested by the Winchesters to act upon the case specially, I have called upon Detective Raid Mays and his deputy Dammy Chester . Their assistance would help us in track as our other cases will be given the same priority .
You are all dismissed . " -
They all scattered while we got inside Raid's office while right on cue , Stephanie enters the office , her face tear stained .
She immediately wipes her face and takes a seat .
" I got the coordinates you sent me Raid , I found the car that took Pakeeza away but there is no one inside . " -
" Don't worry about that , this just takes us a step closer ... " - Raid took the keys of a police car and played with it .
" Let's ride ... " -
