The Following Day
At Lauraโs home
Lauraโs mom paced round the room in search of nothing. She stood akimbo and stamped her feet several times.
She had not gotten over the shock of what happened the other day. Her husband had told her the call she got was probably her imagination. That statement infuriated her because she had the number in her call history for a proof.
Even though she had tried calling the number several times and it was not available she was certain she wasnโt hallucinating.
Lauraโs absence had caused a huge scar in her heart but she wasnโt crazy.
Nevertheless her proof was baseless since the number wasnโt available.
She took a glass cup and got herself a chilled water from the fridge. She was sweating under AC ( air conditioner)
She had tried to eat the meal Priscilla had cooked in the morning but she had lost her appetite. The food was on the Table waiting to be consumed.
Lauraโs mom forced a smile when her husband came in.
โDarling how are you?โ
Her husband asked.
โI am fine thanks.โ
Lauraโs mom replied.
She was surprised when her husbandโs face changed at the next moment.
She realized he had seen the food on the table.
Lauraโs dad stood up from the chair and held the food on the table with his hands .
โYou told me you would eat this food when I wanted to go out in the morning didnโt you?โ
โYes I did but I..โ
Lauraโs mom struggled with words.
โYou arenโt the only one who has been affected by Lauraโs absence. I am affected Priscilla is heartbroken too. We are all in this together. The situation wonโt get pleasant if you continue to starve yourself like this. Lastnight you didnโt eat and now you donโt want to eat. How do you intend on staying alive to see Laura again? Do you think Lauraโs joy will be complete if she comes back and meet you on a sick bed? Moreover I told you to have full faith in me didnโt I? Will your starving bring Laura back ? If it would she ought to be here by now. You arenโt planning on starving yourself to death? Or are you?โ.
Lauraโs dad asked at once.
Lauraโs mom kept mute. Her husband went closer to her and she bursted into tears.
โLaura is my only child after so many miscarriages. You know I havenโt been able to take in ever since I gave birth to her. This pain is too much for me I canโt bear it anymore. Maybe God is punishing me because I havenโt been able to spend time with Laura like I ought to. I have been chasing money round the world , now the money I have acquired canโt even bring back my daughter.โ
Lauraโs dad looked at his wife with a pitiful face and gently sat her down on the chair.
โI am sorry if I raised my voice at you. Please what happened to Laura isnโt your fault donโt ever think that way.โ
Lauraโs father said after he sat his wife down on the chair .
His wife nodded her head and wiped the tears on her face with an handkerchief.
โI am only trying to stand strong I am deeply affected by Lauraโs absence too. I havenโt forgotten the pains you went through in the past before you took in. I havenโt forgotten the sorrow you felt when you thought you had taken in again only for the red dot ( menstruation) to show up. I havenโt forgotten everything. I only want you to have faith in me. We will scale through this. I donโt want this to affect your mental health . Moreover I told you I have hired a private investigator he is the best in the city and the accolades he has gotten so far from home and abroad prove he is. As a matter of fact he was recommended to me by a close friend. I have a feeling we will see Laura and itโs soon. Please cheer up.โ
He patted his wife on the back.
Lauraโs mom gave her husband a sheepish look and collected the food he had taken from the table in his hands.
She ate the food slowly , it took her an hour before she was through with the meal. After she was through she took water from the fridge and rested her head on her husbandโs arm.
She was dozing when her husband got a call. Her husband took his phone from his pocket and answered the call. It was the private investigator.
โHello sir how are you?โ
โI am fine thanks.โ
โGood. I have an interesting Information to share.โ
โAlright go on . Am listening.โ
โThe call your wife got the other day is valid. According to my findings Laura was seen in a car with a stranger the day your wife was called. I donโt know if the stranger with Laura was the one who called your wife but my instincts tells me he is. I will advise you to be vigilant henceforth sir. I will call you when I have more information . Take care sir.โ
โI will. Thanks.โ
Lauraโs father opened his mouth in shock. He couldnโt keep the information to himself so he woke up his wife with a tap on her shoulder.
โDarling I am sorry I interrupted your sleep. I apologize if I doubted you the day you got the strange call.
The private investigator just called me now and he said the call you got was valid. Laura was in a car with a stranger the day you were called.โ
โWait you mean the private investigator just confirmed it.โ
โYes he did dear. I assure you we are closer to finding the truth.โ
โOh! Heavens. Laura was the one who called me mom from the entrance. I canโt believe I was closer to finding my daughter and I slipped.โ
โI donโt understand you. How was Laura able to call you mom when she isnโt here with us?โ
Lauraโs father asked with a puzzled look.
โThe day I got the strange call. I heard mom when we wanted to go back in. Remember I turned back that day. I donโt know if you noticed?โ
โYes you did. โ
โMy poor daughter. Laura must have been helpless thatโs why she called me at the top of her voice. Oh! I have failed her cry for help. I couldnโt rescue her.โ
โItโs not your fault darling. Please donโt talk like this.โ
โThen it mean the man and the woman who stood in my way that day was only to distract me. The strange call wasnโt to get me to see my daughter. I donโt know the intention of the call but am positive it wasnโt to give me information about my missing daughter.โ
โOops whatever this is we will find out soon.โ
Lauraโs father replied and heโs wife forced a smile.
At the hospital
Louisโs POV
Louisโs face looked colourful and bright as the day. He wore a smile as he stared at Lauraโs picture.
Louis father had given the picture to Louis when the doctor told him Laura held a key to Louisโs recovery.
Since Laura wasnโt available the doctor told him Lauraโs picture would help in Louisโs recovery as an alternative to her presence.
Louisโs father had halted his business transactions after what happened to Nicodemus.
Nicodemus had told them everything that had transpired between him and Laura in the past.
His parents were dissapointed he could do such to his elder brother all because he wanted to keep Laura.
Poor Louis who was in the dark and didnโt know anything about what had happened to Nicodemus asked his father why Nicodemus had not come to pay him a visit recently.
โHeโs been busy at work these days. Donโt worry he will pay you a visit soon.โ
Louisโs father lied.
โAlright I miss his company.โ
โReally? Do you remember anything about him?โ
โNot yet I have been struggling with memories . The only constant face that shows up in my head is that of lolita. I saw her clearly today in my dream . Laura is her name. Lolita is a pet name I gave her . I am not even sure of what am saying now. Never mind I donโt want to disturb you with my hallucinations.โ
โSon you arenโt disturbing me and yes what you just said is the truth you arenโt hallucinating. Lolita was the pet name you gave to Laura , she was a lady you held close to your heart. My only wish is you find the light soon.โ
Louis closed his eyes for some minutes to see if he could remember something but he couldnโt.
He shook his head and stared at Lauraโs picture again.
