I will never know why this happens every time I have a great time out with some guy I like, he shows me exactly what he's made of. I always say to myself" Clare girl, you should have known better than that to thinking this one is different." He did take me home but I got rid of him as his octopus hands kept creeping all over my body, he really gave me the creeps... This was actually one of the last dates I swore I will not be stupid enough to say yes to another date again not soon in any case. It was not long after maybe about an hour after I got home that my father contacted me.
I have forgotten how easy it is to fool my father into thinking I was ok as he was talking to me on Skype someone came into the room and I could see him standing up and saying just a minute Clare I will be with you now.... That was a month ago now and when I frantically tried all methods to reconnect to my father all I got was idiotic people at the hotel or hovel I should say as I could not find my father or my mother online or on their cellphones. It seemed they were missing as the authorities later told me they would keep me updated.
My first instinct was of cause to rush over and immediately hop onboard an aeroplane and just search through everything and everywhere myself but I was stopped by my father's Lawyers from doing just that. The lawyers phoned me at the start of the first alarm that my parents were now officially missing. They just did not tell me all the stuff they were up to but did things in stages, I suppose they were waiting for news to arrive from Napal where my parents who were archeologists were set up. My dad was a professor/Archeologist at the local university here in Hope City.
I went from being carefree to being terrified of what would happen to me now that my parents were missing... I was astonished when my father's friend Jason Masters contacted me and told me my parents lawyer phoned him and asked if he would look out for me and come and take care of me. Almost as if I was a baby and I shouted at him and told him off as I was not a baby but a fully grown up young lady of 19 almost for two months now and there was no need for a chaperone of any kind.
My father gave specific instructions for my lawyers to have my parents good friend Jason Masters to come and take care of me if anything should happen to them he had not said a thing to me, but I was definitely not happy about all of the procedures I had to go into to get to Jason Masters house or should I say castle as his home was extremely large and castle like a really dark looking building. I am now here at the bottom of his large fortress and ringing what I hope is a bell and I really hope he would answer soon as I am feeling rather anxious to leave and sort out my life by myself as I am about to turn the large door opens and I am ushered inside by what I can only describe as an old world butler in uniform and with gloves on his hands a real Jeeves the butler sort of guy.
It was with anxious trepidation that I stood waiting for my new guardian to present himself and put me out of my misery and explain why he has access to all my funds as I tried to draw money from my credit cards but no not one of them was actually working. This made me mad enough to come straight here from the lawyers office that had informed me I had to talk to Jason Masters himself and find out why my cards were cancelled. When the large door to the fortress closed behind me with a bang I had such a odd feeling of doom come over me.
I was not waiting long when to my shock a striking man who was dressed in what looks like a modern leather suit came out of the interior of the house. He seemed at odds as he was frowning when he entered and my instinct was then to immediately jump into what I came here to do and that was to demand my money back as I could very well look after my own affairs thank you. He had a very angry look on his face that spoke volumes and said it with one stare straight at me that said little girl don't waste my time.
I was not wasting his time he was a thief and as far as I was concerned I needed to set up the search for my parents and this oaf was standing in my way as I could not even think of my parents as officially deceased I was thinking maybe they got carried away by some great find and forgot all about me or something like that...
I jumped into my fight with Jaden Masters and I shouted at him,"What gave you the right to cancel my credit cards? Who do you think you are anyway?" My anger was so extreme and my anxiety was paramount as this stupid man was now standing in my way of actually getting something solid done Into finding my absentminded parents.
I was shocked when he came to stand infront of me and say very softly and calmly "Clare, just calm down. I will explain what we will do but we will do it together,Ok?" He said it as if he was asking me a question.
I did not even know this man and he wanted to take over my hunt for my parents. How could I trust him. His expression was now gentle as he said " Clare don't you remember me?" I looked into his face and I did start to remember him but he was Uncle Jaden not this gorgeous man infront of me and that is when my face just went beetred as I blushed my first crush yes that was him. I remember my younger self saying to him he would be my husband one-day. I was very flustered and embarrassed by my past childhood infatuation as he just smiled and that made me smile too.
