32- Yes! Got back my mom
When Molly reached home her door was slightly ajar.
“Hello.” She did not get the expected response. “What the fu*k, Abi. You were never this responsible.” There was something unusual in the air. There was a half-filled coffee cup on the
counter.
“Abi!” she called out and then stopped. What if there was a mugger in the house? But her friend’s life might be at stake too.
There was no one in the bedroom. No sign of Abigail in the bathroom. Her purse was lying there o
n the couch.
“Damn, Abigail!” she called out in the empty apartment, “Where are you?”
Just then, she heard a cell phone ringing. This one was Abigail’s ringtone!
The phone was lying under the kitchen stool. She grabbed it from the floor.
Hunter was calling.
With sinking heart she received the call, “Hey, sugar. I had been calling you since ages. You got me worried like hell.”
Oh! Abi never told her that he called her SUGAR! Interesting! One more thing to pull her leg!
“Hunter?” Molly asked with cautious smile.
“Who is this?” Hunter frowned and looked at the phone.
“This is Molly. Abigail’s friend.”
“Oh. I see. Abigail is with you? I was getting all worked up for no reason I guess. She did not come t o her apartment. Can you please ask her to talk to me?”
“Hunter. Abigail is not here!”
“Oh. Then where is she? Bathroom?”.
“She is not here in the apartment, Hunter.” And then Molly’s heart missed a beat, “I am not getting a good feeling about this.” The last part was told more to herself.
Hunter who was putting the meatloaf in his mouth, stopped for a minute, “Wh … What do you mean by that, Molly.”
“When I came home she was not here in the apartment. She left her purse and cell phone. The
door was open when I reached here.”
She did not want to alarm him by telling that her phone was found from the floor.
Hunter did not know what to make of it, “Ok. I am coming, Molly.”
He was about to disconnect the call when he heard Molly.
32- Yes! Got back my mom
“Hunter. I am going out to look for her. There is something serious going on.” There was a little shiver in her voice, “She has two options. Me or you. I was not here … so chances are she will try to contact you or reach you.”
“B…But I just can’t sit around here doing nothing…”
“Hunter.” Molly called him patiently, “If she would come to you and would not find you that would b
e worse. So please listen to me. Trust me.”
Hunter stood there and then he just spoke one word. “Ok.”
“It’s not until you fall that you fly…” She was looking out of the window and was humming the song. Her forehead was leaned on the glass, “When your dreams come alive you are unstoppable. Hmm. Make it possible. Lala. Make it possible.”
“What are you exactly singing, hun?” Kyle gave her the hot chocolate cup in her hands. Chloe could not risk to tell him that this was Abigail’s favorite song.
She took the cup and headed to the couch. But Kyle held her arm and guided her to the comfortable and comfy sofa placed near the window.
“Sit here.” It belonged to Kyle. Abigail gave him as a gift on their engagement anniversary. Ever since she had left him, Kyle never let Chloe sit there. But tonight it was special.
Chloe could not believe when he offered her to sit there.
“Are you sure?”
“I am. Only my child’s mom deserves to sit here.” With a proud grin, Chloe sat there with a big smile. The victory was not letting her to wipe that off her face.
They just got back from Geena’s place. At first, she was not letting them in, in spite of Chloe’s cries and begging.
At last Chloe shouted at her, “Mom. You don’t want me inside your house? Fine. But at least think o f my child. He is your grandchild too. A piece of your heart! You can’t throw us away just like that.”
The moment Geena heard that… She opened the door. And rest was all history. Her mom called Abigail right in front of them.
She knew Abigail must be shocked.
Hell shocked!
Mom invited them for weekend dinner and requested Abigail to settle all the hatred. For her nephew or niece. Whatever it would be.
Though there was no response from Abigail but her silence was enough to tell her that this time she did it the right way.
“What are you thinking?” She felt Kyle’s lips on her head.
32- Yes! Got back my mom
“Umm. Nothing. Nothing special.”
Just yesterday she was thinking to find ways to defeat Abigail. And what a chance she had been blessed by fate.
Her baby was proving to be a blessing in disguise.
She had gotten back her mom. Now she wanted that seat which belonged to Abigail Mason at Levisay International.
And to control that seat, she needed Hunter. She had heard that Hunter was crazy about blonds. And Chloe was a beautiful blond who made everyone turn their heads.
She needed to get Hunter’s attention. Chloe will take care of the rest.
Chloe thought with a smirk. This time she did succeed in hitting the target.
Poor Abigail! Oh! Poor poor Abigail.
