“Sir.”
“Speak up, Santiago! Did she die? Who died? What are you talking about?”
“Sir, the relatives have been trying to get hold of you, but you missed all their calls due to a weak signal.”
“Santiago?”
“Yes.”
“You are not making sense.”
“My apologies, Sir. Winter died with the unborn baby.”
“How is that possible?” Joshua is now frantic. “Before I left, she was fine, so what are you talking about?”
“Sir, I am looking at the medical report, and it says she died because she did an abortion and the wire was not sterilized. So her body got infected. The sepsis caused her organs to fail.”
“Sir, are you there?”
Joshua is quiet on the other end, not believing what he hears.
“Santiago, I pay you well. Why did you not find a way to let me know?”
“Sir, I was assi

“Johnathan and Desmond are behind all this, Sir. They knew about your operations. Also, Sir, there is something you need to know.”“What the fuck is it with you and speaking as if there is some terrible ending to a horror movie?”“Sorry, Sir. But I ran the cameras into your house and saw that Winter was in your house. She was sitting in a sitting room writing on a piece of paper when suddenly there was a knock on your door. She quickly shoved the paper between your cushions, Sir.”“Who was there by my house when she was there, Santiago?”“Desmond and Jonathan, Sir.”“Ok, go on?”“Sir, she was frightened of them when Johnathan entered. She and Johnathan were arguing, and she burst out into tears.”“What were they arguing about?”“About the baby, Sir, about she can not have the baby?”“What?”&ldqu

It's pouring outside. Joshua hears the sound of the rain against the window. The house is quiet. No Rowan, no mother, no Andrea, no Winter. If only he could relive the moments and time he spent with them, the laughter, the tears. His dad is in the room; his father has changed so much. Joshua stands up and then walks to his dad's room.He saw his dad sitting there with the family album. He has never seen his dad this sad. He walks up to his dad. Tiffany comes out of her room and enters the main bedroom where Joshua and their dad are sitting. It's been a while since she was in the main bedroom because of the bad memories. “Hey guys, it's raining nicely outside,” she tries cheering them up as Joshua glances at her and nods his head.Her dad does not look in her direction. It is as if he is not there. She holds her father as he stares blankly into the family portraits. “I got something to tell you and your sister.”“Yes, dad?” He

“Go check who was over there,” Lucifer orders one of the guards.“Boss, there are two kids and a guy.”“What do you mean, two kids and a guy?”“Yes, sir, you certainly got them. They are not moving or breathing.”Immediately Lucifer's biggest fear comes true as he asks Larry to take a look, “Boss, it's Joshua, Tiffany, and Philip.”“WHAT?????” Lucifer rushes over to the bodies and sees Tiffany, not moving, wearing a thick jacket, and Joshua, with a thick jacket, beside her. Both of them are not moving as Lucifer falls to his knees, “what have I done?” He breaks into tears, “this can't be real. I killed my kids.” Philip is lying dead on the floor on his back.Larry is also in tears. So much was lost to people he cared about. Lucifer now turns to Johnathan and Desmond, takes a knife, and cuts Desmond down the middle of his chest as he screams in pai

Driving, it's dark as Tiffany falls asleep in the back seat, but it's a new beginning for Joshua and Tiffany. He was thinking back as Joshua took the long road to the silent valley. While driving, Joshua thinks to himself that what he is doing now is for his sister's sake. His sacrifice is a big step, especially after everything that has happened. Feeling sleepy, Joshua pulls over at a nearby motel. Sitting in the car, it's 1 am as he hears the sound of the wind. Joshua knows he is safe where ever he goes, and he is capable of protecting Tiffany. He adjusts his seatback. The tinted windows help a lot, and no one can look into them. He closes his eyes and thinks back to everything about his dad, mom, and girlfriend. Moving to that place was the worst decision his dad had ever made. Never would he have thought he would end up losing his whole family. Luckily he got Tiffany, and he will protect her no matter what.As he turns on his side, the moon is barely visible through the d

The girls look over in a panic towards the cops. Did they even notice she was signaling for them to assist because of the armed men in the shop? The two cops now sit in the car. Picking the radio, the cops say, “we have a 211 in progress. Can you please send backup? There are four armed men. We have seen people there in the cafe.”“This is dispatch. Please, please stay out. We are sending backup.”“These cops must go,” says the one guy looking out the window.“Did any of you snitch?” He grabs the thirty-year-old guy by the hair, lifting him from his chair, “did you signal?”“No, how could I have? I was all the time right here by you.”He walks to Joshua and pulls his hair, “is it you?” The guy laughs, taking his gun, “open your mouth.”Joshua refuses and is tired of this; Joshua says, “where is the fun in telling the cops?” he grins, &

Driving on the dusty road, Joshua can not help to notice how dry the place is. There are no trees, no sign of any rain the humidity is 39 degrees. Turning around, he sees Tiffany is still asleep. As he thinks back to his dream, his mom made him promise to protect her, and that's what he does as promised. While driving, he notices a breakdown. The car is in the middle of the gravel road blocking the roadway. Pulling over, he feels the heat. It's scalding. He then climbs out of his car and walks over to the car blocking the road. There are three guys and one girl. “Hey,” Joshua says, “what's the reason for blocking the road?”Joshua knows precisely how this will play out. He grew up around hijacking, car theft, robbery killing. He dodged bullets all his life. The guy with the denim jacket pulls a knife as the other two walk up to him. “That's a nice car you have. How about we trade?”Joshua starts laughing, “trade that piece of s

“No, there is nothing to sell,” Tiffany laughs, “it is just we like our space, and I think it's best you go back home.”Casey glances in the mirror to look at Joshua, hoping he will say something. Joshua glances and looks at the road. “So,” she changes the topic, “Tiffany, who is the lucky guy in your life?”“No one,” Tiffany laughs.“Come on, you can tell me.”“Nothing to tell,” she smiles.“And you, Joshua?”“Oh, he has a girlfriend,” Tiffany lies, “they have been dating for years.”“Ok,” says Casey looking down at her phone.Arriving in a silent valley, they can't help to notice how quiet the place is. There are broken windows and no one in sight. “Why is this place so quiet?” Tiffany says.“Well,” says Casey, “there was a virus outbreak that killed half the

“Relax,” says Tiffany to Casey, “you will be fine.”Casey grins, “I know I have been through the worst.”Joshua and Casey now head off back to bed. “It’s freezing,” Casey says, “I thought this place was hot.”“Well, it's that time of the year when nighttime is cold and the day is sweltering.”Laying next to Joshua, Casey's heart is racing at his body heat. All she wants to do is just hold him.She then turns to face Joshua, making it as if she is asleep.Tiffany whispers to Joshua, “don't you think we should send her back home? Because we are endangering her life.”Joshua turned on his side, facing Tiffany, “let's talk in the morning. It has been a long day.”“Yes, it has,” she smiles, holding her pillow tight.“I miss mom,” she whispers as her eyes start to water, reflecting on all their fantasti
