História A Girl With A Gun :Lilac - 5.Journal

5.Journal

"I felt a gentle breeze of wind tickling my face and stroking my brown curls , and I'd think that I was blind if I could not see a dim light at the end of this place which resembled a tunnel"

"I felt fear crawl in my spine , a coat of coldness covered me, fight or flight sensation knocked my sanity while I was shivering I looked around ,I could not locate danger yet my heart screamed fear and my mind commanded me to run"

"I ran and realized I was barefooted ,I could smell the sand as million of thorns cut my leg yet it did not seize me from running"

"I was Breathless as if my lungs were expired, Sweat, blood and tears mingled freely and as I was touching the light, everything vanished "

"The sound of the judge wooden gavel hit the sound block echoed "

"Chains On me, I could feel them , They were made from good steel and breaking from them was impossible cause I could not see , and the worst thing screaming for help was not an option for my vocal cords disappeared "

"Then I saw, but it was blurry and my chains blossomed into Lilacs it helped me to break through all this dark , to be my own kind of twilight , to be a dawn"

Lilac doubted it was dream , for her senses were heightened, she dangly could feel.

She asked her self 'Running ,I was running from who?'

"Darling!"Miss Margret came.

"What are you thinking about dear?" She asked her

"Nothing" Lilac said as if Margret Stroke a nerve.

"What is it? speak!"Margret said , she knew lilac too well, so Lilac could not easily fool her.

Lilac told her about her one of a kind dreams while Margret assured her that worrying won't help and is n't even necessary .

"Miss Margret, I stopped teaching in The Phoenix School"

"What? but you told me they paid well"

Lilac was like a deer caught between two hungry hunters, she did not know what to say.

"Forget about it" Lilac said .

Lilac left the orphanage to pay the tree house a visit, it was a place she and Emma spent most of their days in , the memories flooded in every spot and in every shelve.

She found some of her artistic kit , she painted what she felt in her dream and it was ravishing and peace provider.

She did not know that the time was passing so fast until she noticed how dark it is outside.

She walked home and opened her laptop to the ATOT website and it was so business alike.

'They traded everything ' she noticed.

Lilac wrote their email down ,for she knew she should pay them a visit.

Lilac searched for Morgan Dutton in Google ,CEO of ATOT, She knew that "he is married to May Thompson who is better known for being the daughter of the Mayor who his death is bizarre and was not categorized as suicide or as murder"

She watched a couple of Youtube videos about the Mayor's death ,she knew that May was his only child and before the Mayor's death the local newspaper accused him of illegal stuffs like helping drug dealers ..He died because he cut his veins in both hands and his body was in the living room , but police officer found his blood on the handle of the unclosed door and the knife he used was in his office and his blood was all over the place.

Lilac watched all the documentaries which either talked about how good May's father was or how sneaky he was .

Lilac decided to call Vii to ask her a couple of questions which crowded in her messy mind.

It took forever for Vii to answer.

"Hello lilac "Vii said

"Hello, How are you?"

"I am doing fine , I am waiting for my nails to dry ,You?" Vii said casually.

'Typical Vii 'Lilac thought

"Fine, I wanted to ask you where did you meet Emma the last time?"

"Uh, I met her at the company off course !" Vii explained.

"For her meeting!!"Lilac said while slapping her forehead , for she completely forgot about Emma's meeting.

"No girl, she did not have a meeting she was looking for her journal "

Lilac kept silent .

"That journal which is so dear to her heart that she won't let a human being touch it or read it "

"But she always kept it with her " Lilac uttered breathlessly.

"I know that is why I was surprised , she looked so pale and was about to throw up when she asked me about it"

"Did you know where it was!!"

"No , I did not cause she always kept it with her all the time" Vii concluded.

" did Emma find the journal in the company that day?"Lilac stated.

"unluckily , she did not find it, she looked heartbroken" Vii said with a hint of sadness and pain in her voice.

The phone call ended when Lilac assured Vii that they would go to the salon together when she goes back to New York and then Vii said that she is only "one call away" if Lilac ever needed an ear to listen to her nagging. 

Lilac slept that night with only one thought 'Where is the journal?' and she decided that she had to look for the journal in the apartment once she is in NY .
