ANNIE POV.
It's a blissful sunny Saturday. On waking up from a nap, I dressed up my bed and look out of my window as usual. Because I always feel that the vicinity behind our house its so beautiful, and mom does not allow me to go out, make friends or allow others to visit our home, except our maid; "Mrs. Ramus," whom mom signed a confidential agreement with. She comes only when mom and I left for work. And she works from Mondays to Fridays every week, she cleans the entire house with the exception of the upper floor, and she cooks dinner for me and mom.
Of course, I'm not some kind of a spoiled little girl, although I'm the only child and lives alone with my mom, which she adores me very much. But mom makes sure that I can take care and be able to protect myself whenever she's not around, and in addition to all these, I'm a great cook, especially noodles. Mom usually praises my computer and medical prowess, she thought that I am a genius.
Oh! Forgive my manners. My name is Annie Johnson, and my mom is Dr. Amelia Johnson. We moved to Rwanzia village four years ago, but mom works in A and A Humanity Hospital, a small but the fastest growing hospital in the city. In fact, it was listed among the top ten best hospitals in Germany this year, because of it great records in handling difficult and almost impossible cases. And all these great achievements awarded and thanks to mom's extraordinary medical skills, which many people who ever come across her, calls mom; "the miracle doctor." Mom travels about a hour and half journey everyday to work, she will first send me to school, then pick me up back home.
And mind you, this hospital that mom is now working in, it's all mom's pain staking efforts and endeavors. Auntie Annie Crown, mom's best, trusted and only friend since their university days till date. In fact, she is my godmother. And to understand how close and trusting they are towards each other; "I was named after her"! Miss Crown married an American doctor, "Dr. Christian Lenard" they had two kids, (Estella Crown and Jayden Lenard). They got divorced four years ago and shared their kids. I'm a year and three months older than Estella while three years and eleven months older than Jayden. When mom was busying starting up her hospital, then my godmother agreed to help mom took care of me, since I was just six months old, until I turned five years old. And when the couple started having issues, constant arguments and even turned to domestic violence. Mom sensibly took me away, thinking that is not good for my growth.
My godmother told me that, mom started her hospital in Berlin, named; "AJ clinic." She was supported by a very powerful and prominent family in Germany, because of some kind of agreement between the two parties. But later, the bad guys who have been after mom for years showed up, then mom sold her clinic and escaped to Rwanzia village where she lays low to lead a quiet and peaceful life there, and started A and A Humanity Hospital in the Stuttgart Central. Yeah, I knows that mom is being hunted by a very powerful family in England to harm mom and I. That was the main reason Mom asked my godmother to let me find solace with them all these while, until four years ago that she took me with her hiding in this secluded village. I sigh, wondering who will like to harm us, does it have any thing to do with my sperm donor? But why? Because my godmother warned me not to mention my dad to mom, that it's her most vulnerable spot. So I sensibly avoid such topic. But there's one more thing, I initially thought that A and A humanity hospital is the acronyms of mine and mom's names, but I doubt it now, after running into mom's room so many times, I catches her sobbing bitterly and calling, Ariel! And if you ask me who Ariel is? Honestly I don't know. Because each time I ask her, she will just give me some random excuse like, I love the name Ariel and if I could have a son, I will name him Ariel. Hhm, mom thought that I'm just a kid, but I know pretty well that, she's hiding things from me. Well, that's a story for another time.
On the taking view of the surrounding through the window, and I'm about to turn around and leave. But I suddenly caught a glimpse of a shadow, as I quickly look through the window again. Behold a boy, and mind you, he is obviously far older than I, but can definitely not be identify as a man, because he sure is just a teenage boy.
He is desperately running out of the thick dark bush, like someone who is running for his dear life. Obviously, he's being chasing by someone and he is a stranger, otherwise, given to his situation, he wouldn't have choose the route he had taken. Sure enough, I've guess right. Some strong men of about six or seven also run out of the bush from the same spot, and group in two as they take the opposite directions. Off course, I know whose men they are. The most dangerous, cruelest, ruthless and notorious international underworld organization gang master's men.
History had it that, Mr. Morrison Carpenter was a very powerful general in the military, but was caught in an illegal acts, and he was illegally selling ammunition, around the world. He was caught by Gen. Gerald Huggins and was sentence to life imprisonment. But his Confidant, Corporal Rosie Clark helped him escaped and found their harbor in a large hidden cave around Stuttgart, especially in Rwanzia. And mind you, this is one of his many harbors in the country and around the world. This Gen. Morrison Carpenter, had become threads to the country and many nations, and even some high ranking and powerful families in the country and nations around the world.
Mom always do her best to avoid any unnecessary attention, so I also do my very best to live up to mom's expectations, and stay out of troubles. But there's something about this boy that makes me want to help. Maybe, it's because I sure know that he doesn't know his way out and will soon be caught up by those thugs or because, I always wish to have a brother. So calculated from him not knowing the village, I estimated which route he will be taking.
And don't get me wrong. Simply because my mom doesn't allow me to go out, didn't mean that, I don't sneaks out, roaming about the village. So, guessing the possible way he could follow, I quickly wear black sneakers, I was wearing a black bump short and ash crop top. So I casually picked up a knee length trench coat and sneaked out through my secret pathway.
I got to my little play room. I only made my mom to believes that it's a play room, but in reality, it's a room where I does my secret things such as; "hacking, combats and shooting training and also running my underworld businesses, coming up with new ideas to expands and upgrades my laboratories, hospital, resorts and secrets Base and also my newly started robots and computer software technology company, instructing my subordinates through the guises of Boss A. Giggle. They sure must have thought that, I am a kind of an adult, but guess what?! I can't help it, but laughed.
So I quickly enter my password on my computer, and there was suddenly a click sound from ahead. Then I rushed to the wall, which have not the slightest sign of a crack, except a dark shining glass plate floor(scanner)hardly notice because of the amounts of dust masks it beside the wall. So step on the scanner and listen to the electronic voice speak; "Master you're about to go out. Please place your palm on the unlock button for verification."
So I did as I was instructed, as the wall crack and the floor that I was standing on, suddenly swing clockwise and I arrived outside just right on time. Behold the teenage boy is about to run pass, and luckily, those thugs were nowhere to be seen yet. So without a second thought I leaped up in the air, like in a lightning speed, and grab him by his wrist and forcefully pull him towards the wall.
