In the morning he woke up before the sunrise on the horizon,pack his small bag and left.When the young lady woke up he was long gone.
Did he left already? without telling me?
She rushed downstairs and ring the small copper bell that was on the reception desk in a hurry while shouting.

"What is it my child,is something wrong?"he asked in a low shaking voice
The man that I came in with last night…
What about him?
Where is he?
Did he leave already or tell you anything?
Slow down my dear,that man you are talking about left early and to answer your last question my sweet child he did not say anything.
Thank you sir,I will be going now as well
Goodbye.
With that said flora left the hotel and head home,the man who clearly has done her heart has disappeared without a trace not even a goodbye to her.
As she walk on the road that leading home her heart felt happy and sad.
"It's getting hot and hotter this days,I even lost my phone thos damn thugs,what in the world is going on?even mere streets are not safe anymore"she whispered to herself as she drag her feet to walk on the hill road.
"Hey miss are you going somewhere,you looked exhausted",am young man asked as he slow down his car to pull over at the side of the road.
"Yes I am ",flora answered
"Get in am heading to the upper hills town I can drop you there if you are heading any further".He said as while using hand signal to ask her to go to the other side of the car .
After a while they reached the town.
"Thanks for the ride,I will pay you in the future",flora said with a smile
"No worries,and by the way what is your name,you have been quite the whole ride ",the man asked
"Jane",she replied and walked away.
Jane walked a few blocks and enter a large office that was owned by a political figure in the region,she walked past the guard and the reception but no one seem to ask where she was going instead their faces clearly show that she is important and brings fear to all of them.
"Jane!Jane! why didn't you tell me that you are coming I could hqve picked you up,you are a mess what happened to you darling, slow down will you",Bobi whispered
"Shush",Jane put her finger on his mouth as she push open the large brown wooden door.
Jane entered the office first and Bobi followed.
It was a magnificent office tidy as the wind-swept around allowed.A beautiful family portrait on the wall,tiger rug covered the floor, beautiful flowers were arrange across the room in glamours vases.
"Why are you back and look at yourself,are you a bigger?",the woman asked
"I got mugged in downtown before I could call Bobi to pick me up besides where I slept last night it was not a decent place but I had to do with it",Jane replied in a low voice.
For a while,her mother stayed silent then asked Bobi to prepare a car so that the can head home .
