It turned out that Stone's invitation for the weekend was to a golf resort and hotel in Huddersfield, near Bradford, called Grayson Carter. Stone had called Sidney to tell her about the details the night before, and also to tell her that he had booked two rooms for Sidney and Bradley in the hotel, and they could leave by Sunday morning. The things one would do for their jobs. No one wants to lose their jobs just because they can't be a game player. Doing your job appropriately involved playing some sort of game, or sacrificing something it doing some things one wouldn't normally do. The good thing was that Mr. Williams always appreciated her efforts and all of his employees in the company, and that was enough motivation to go beyond to get the job done. When they arrived at the resort, Bradley told Sidney that the resort was owned by his father's friend's cousin; Mr. Grayson. He told her that his family and his father's best friend's family vis

The attention of an attentive, fine, and handsome escort she would have tonight was all part of Sidney's fantasy evening and as long as she remembered that this wasn’t a date, she would be fine. She felt that the less dating, the less problem for her. Bradley had texted her when she came down from her apartment to say that he would meet her at the parking lot of the building where the event would take place. He said he had to help his friend out with some of the arrangements of the night.“I’m sorry I couldn’t be there to pick you up myself. That’s why I had to send you a limo,” he told her over the phone. "I hope it's alright."“It’s alright." She chuckled. "At least, I’m riding there in style,” she said with a grin. "I should be there soon."There was a pause, then he said. “Okay, see you soon!”“Yeah, I will see you soon too. Just don’t disappear on me toni

Rain fell hard against the windscreen of the car as they drove to Sidney's apartment and it prompted her to pray they get to her place soon.  She shook her head and smiled softly as she remembered that it was during a rainy night like this that she and Bradley had met. She glanced at Bradley who was focused on the road ahead of them with his eyes squinted in concentration.  Her head still pounded but this moment didn't allow her to feel the ache as she should, although, it was already slipping right back in.  What she needed was a good distraction. Maybe she would fall right into sleep if she removed all her thoughts from her mind. She shut down and closed her eyes, but it didn't work.  Maybe it was the headache she was feeling, maybe it was the atmosphere but whatever it was, she felt like something was kind of wrong.  They got to her building five minutes later and they saw some police car around in the front.

Early in the next morning, Sidney was already on her way to Valerie's place with the bible nestled in her bag. Throughout the night, she had worked out a plan for her to start from and she was sure her friend will be glad to help out.  The drive to Valerie's house took about twenty five minutes. She had called a cab very early so that she could get there on time. When the cab finally got to her house, she paid and walked to her front door, hastily. She knocked on her door and waited for response.  She knocked the door again, and heard footsteps approaching the door. Valerie opened the door with a surprised look on her face.  That reaction was expected as she had never visited her that early before. Not once. "Hi, Sid." She greeted. "What's going on?" She asked.  Pushing past her, she dropped the bag she was carrying on the couch in her living room and sat down.  Valerie closed the door slowly, and locked it, th

  Five minutes later, She finished cooking, and they sat down to eat their food. The food was fried fish and chips. Valerie looked around and said. "Where else can we search if we don't see it in the your father's weapon room?" She asked Sidney.  Sidney shrugged and said. "I'm not sure where else we can search, really." She answered. She stood up to make coffee and put it into two cups. She handed one to Valerie  "I think we should just go and come back later to search for it. It's getting late." She said.  "We will leave after we search the weapon room. That's the only place we haven't search." Sidney replied. "Let's take the food back with us into the weapon room, so that we can resume searching for it. The earlier we search the place, the earlier we can get out of here." She said.  They went into the room with the remaining chips on a tray with their cups of coffee, and some bread.  Sidney moved
