Chapter 118 - The Kidnapping

"We have information about your mother and sister so if you wish to know more about them, meet us at The Noodle Place at 8.00 pm.' That was what the note said. Naturally, I found it odd that if a person had information why not come forward directly and tell me but I convinced myself that since it was a public place, I would be safe and even if the lead turned out to be a dud, at least I would have tried. Even after having suffered so much and knowing that I was walking a thin line, I went in there, only to be met with another hell. The entire place was a setup. From the friendly owner to the old woman who came to offer information to the other customers. The older woman seemed to know about my sister and me. She said that everyone assumed we were dead. After that, she started telling me about the hardships she had suffered and though I was impatient, I remained polite and heard her story, much to my foolishness. Because that is what it was exactly- a story.
