Chapter 7 - Chapter seven

I have been trying my mother's number for almost an hour but it hasn't been reachable which is making us more scared and my dad in a panic state

"Dad calm down maybe she is just a little busy or dropped her phone somewhere," I said trying to assure my dad while Liam tries to track her down with his colleagues but they couldn't get through

"What..what if he killed her" my dad assumed trying to act brave by holding in the tears welling up in his eyes

"Dad don't say that nothing would ever happen to her, " I said hugging him again…that's the only thing I can do to help him calm down

" Mr Stone she just picked, " Cyrus said handing her phone over to my dad

"Emily…why weren't you picking up your calls," my dad asked putting the phone on speaker so all of us could listen to the conversation

"My car" she stammered

"What happened to your car..talk to me and stop stammering" my dad exclaimed

" It just blew up" The minute she said that I felt my breath seize for a moment

" How what caused it to talk to us, " my dad asked anxiously

" Dad calm down and stop rushing her," I said

" is Olivia with you," she asked with fright still in her voice

" Yes I'm here Mom please explain to us what happened," I said

" I…I was about to head to the airport when I started the engine but then I remembered I forgot some essential things and just when I was about to go back my car blew up. If I had been in the car one minute earlier I would have been dead…I have no enemies why would someone set a bomb in my car" she said crying

" Mom please calm down and why were you going to the airport anyways," I asked

" I wanted to come back to you and ask for forgiveness from all of you but my Visa is burnt now how would I possibly get to you" have replied sniffing

" Mom stop crying find a hotel and stay we would come to get you," I said

" Thank you, Olivia….I would be waiting for you, did something happen you seemed to be in more panic than I am" she asked

" When I get to you we would discuss all that, " I said before hanging up

" Did you get her location?" I asked Liam who had been on his laptop the whole time

" Yes and now I am tracking every move…"

" How would we possibly get her a new Visa as soon as possible before it gets too dangerous for her," my dad asked

" I already arranged that it would be ready in just an hour," Liam said

" How did you do that," I asked

" I have my ways Olivia I just need your mother's photo," he syoungergerk you,u Liam," I said genuinely

" Dad me and Liam would go to London to get Mother I would tighten the security around here so you and Cyrus can be safe," I said

" Olivia I know this is happening because someone wants to kill me but I can't thank you enough for considering saving your mother after she had done, " my dad said hugging me tightly

" Olivia go and pack a backpack we would be leaving immediately after the visa gets here," Liam said as I rushed upstairs with Cyrus following swiftly

"Please be careful out there Olivia you are all we have got, "Cyrus said hugging me

Liam was right about the visa it was legit and didn't look like something that was made by amateurs

The ride to London was delayed but we leave stateless that every day

"You know I never knew this would be the way I would get to talk to my mom again," I said to Liam who was sitting beside me on the plane going through his laptops

"Why did you say that," he asked

" I always despise her then..one time I even wished she was deaf but now I can do that…even if anything happens to her I would blame myself over and over again," I said

" Why don't you just reconcile with her so your family can be whole again," Liam asked closing the laptop

" My family can't come back together not after what ended," I said staring at her picture on my phone, it's been ages since I saw her …how would she react to seeing me would she even miss me or notice how much I had grown within this couple of years

"You are just like your dad," Liam said smiling at me

" How?" I asked shutting my phone screen

" You both care about your mom no matter what"

"Of course, I have to care she gave birth to me and I that I would be thankful for that if my life," I said trying to get a quick nap

" Goodnight" he whispered to me

I woke up when the announcement was being made that the plane was about to descend

"Are you nervous to meet your mother?" Liam asked as we got off the plane

" I am not," I said trying to act brave

"You are…and you don't have to hide it or be shy I can hold your hands so you won't feel nervous anymore," Liam said opening his palm to me…is he trying to flirt with me in such a critical moment

" No thanks," I said but he intertwined our hands together walking quickly pulling me along

"Stop proving stubborn only if you are close to me can I be able to protect you better," he said that clearly sounded like a lie but I ignored it and just followed him

We were at the hotel where my mom was staying ,I prayed to my God that she won't act like the mothers in the movies I watch as I stepped into the hotel and towards the receptionist

"Do you want to book a room?" she asks smiling at Liam who smiles back ,what's his issue with always flirting with ladies

"No I'm here to see someone," I said

"And you sir," she asked like she didn't just notice me or even listened to anything I said

" We came together" he responded

"What's the person's name," she asked

" Emily Pablo," I said as she nods going through her computer screen

"Room 406," she said as I nod before heading up but Liam stays back to say thank you before rushing up to me

"Why did you act so rude to her," he asked

" She was flirting with you"

" What a weird reason to be rude," he said

I knocked on her door g

ently a few times before it flung open…my mother there she was after seven years I was seeing, how much I had missed this woman
