Kioni
I lost something ten years ago. I remember the bracelet. It has to do with why Adam broke in. I was having flashes and they were clear. Adam was on the floor bloody from a gunshot wound. He told me to run but not before he told me the bracelet had our legacy. Something important.
He lied to you and you need to run.
Trust no one, only Sebastian. Find him, he will explain.
They did this to us and the bracelet has the proof you need to fight.
It’s up to you to make them pay, sis.
I love you Kiki.
Adam’s words were loud in my head and clear. They were like a chorus in my head sounding louder and louder.<
Kioni After crying for what seemed like ages I finally composed myself and explained the recent memory to my foster parents and they listened. All these years I thought I was abandoned but my parents were murdered and Adam survived. I had no idea what happened to him but I understood. The look on his face the night we met a couple of weeks ago. All this time he was looking out for me from afar. It all makes sense now. Trust no one. Run. “I think I need to go away for a while,” I spoke. “Away?” My mother was the first to speak, her voice hesitant. “I don’t think it’s a good idea sweetheart. You just remembered a huge fraction of your life and it’s now exactly wise to be on your own now.” Trust no one. “I understand but this is something I need to do.” “What about work?” she asked looking at me, “What about us?” Only Sebastian. “This is more important than work, mom,” I added. “For how long?” she questioned. Trust no one. “I don’t know,” I replied, staring at the floor. “She
Kioni I was running out of options and I didn’t know what to do. I was afraid and clueless as to where I should go. I can’t trust anyone anymore and I was beginning to regret telling my foster parents about my memory. It pained me to say foster but the memory of my biological parents being dead hurt more. I couldn’t remember them, but they were dead. They had been dead all along and this explains why no one came for me. I considered going to the police, but I was scared. I didn’t know what to think anymore. My head was beginning to pound and feel heavy. I was exhausting myself trying to think of a plan. I needed my brother now more than ever. I was back at my apartment busy packing. I had no idea where I was going. I have been tense and on edge. There was a ping on my phone. Jam
James I would have loved to go out of my way and look for her, but it was her choice to leave. Her father told me she remembered something, and she needed time on her own to figure things out. He wouldn’t tell me a lot which was not going to help me. She was gone and I didn’t know what to do. I wanted to give up and give her space, but I couldn’t. I had a feeling she needed me. I could help if she asked. It hurt that she didn’t trust me enough. I just found out I’m in love with her and I can’t lose her after only finding her. I was going to make everything about her my business too. The only thing I can do now is to find her case file and start my investigations. Hopefully, I will find something useful, so I started the engine and made my way to the station. There was no point in me looking sharp anymore as I pulled the tie from my co
Razor It was a close call, but I managed to get the painting from Nick’s grasp. If one of his men had managed to get the painting the boss was not going to be happy. I have seen the length of his wrath far too many times to risk double-crossing him. I used to work for Frank, but he found out I covered for my brother Jay after he hit a school kid and drove off. I had lied and became his alibi, but he found out and made me betray my old boss. He never deserved my betrayal after everything he had done for me, but I had no choice. He tied my hands. With both Jay and I in prison, there would be no one to take care of my family. I was expecting a child at the time and I couldn’t leave them. I know what I did and have accepted an
James The night is going to be very long. I was back at home trying to arrange everything for my board. I had retrieved my old sketchbook from the basement and printed her case file. I still couldn’t believe that it was her and I didn’t see it sooner. I tried to look for her, but she had disappeared and all this time she had been in the same city as me. I should have done a better job of looking and now I was not going to let her disappear on me again. She has been the reason I couldn’t commit to a girl because I couldn’t stop thinking about her. I guess it's true people do fall in love at first sight. I looked on the bed where the bracelet was and observed it again. The flashback of that night came back in my head again. She bumped into me and she had been running for a long time by the way she was breathing. She looked back be
James “What is up with you today?” “Nothing,” I responded. I was tapping my feet while staring at my phone. I was waiting for a call from Ivy from forensics. I had asked her to check the bracelet, maybe something will come out of the search. I checked the time again. What was taking Ivy so long? “Pega?” “I’m fine Nigel,” I responded with a sigh. “What was the last thing I said then?” he spoke. “You asked me how I was?” I responded. “No. That’s not what I asked. Now, what is up with you?” he inquired. “Nothing,” I answered looking at my phone.
Adam Everything I have been doing would have been better if I wasn’t doing it all in hiding. I feel I have been doing all of this all wrong from the beginning. I can’t fight alone, it was time I reached out to my sister. I broke into her foster’s house looking for the bracelet but couldn’t find it. Razor and Jay even tried to trap me into thinking I had found Sebastian. I’m not a fool and my father taught me better. I will not be blindsided by their schemes anymore. These years in hiding taught me better. I took the risky move and made my way to Kioni’s apartment making sure to keep my eyes peeled. My heart was beating out of my chest harder than I expected. I was beginning to wonder why I didn’t do this sooner because it felt right. “Hi there,” I said looking behind me. Everything seemed good so far. “I’m wondering if you can help me
Kioni “Wow, when did Rosalyn have time to make this?” I asked as I sat down. “I did ask her to make something special.” Nick smiled. “She is a miracle worker. This smells divine,” I let the aroma in. I’m surprised Rosalyn had time to make a casserole considering the amount of time I bumped into her when I was exploring the house. Nick must have asked her to make sure I got anything I needed because she kept me well fed and hydrated all afternoon. I’m not sure I have space to have dinner, but it smelled and looked devine. “How was your day,” Nick asked, plating his food. “It was good. I’m surprised I slept throughout the morning.” I responded as I added the salad to my plate.
