Chapter 2
Guess who had a fun day at the lake! Not me. It's not that I don't like lakes or swimming, but the fact I barely got to do anything because I was too busy watching ten and eleven year olds scream their heads off. Yeah that's not fun for me. But at least Austin was happy right? That little boy was just too nice not to love him. As me and Austin where walking back to our cabin I failed to notice Austin was looking at me while I walked "Lilah why are you here?" asked Austin "what do you not what me here?" I said only joking "no it's just you don't look happy" he said. I couldn't stand to make him sad by saying I didn't want to be here so instead I just said "I just got a lot on my mind, little buddy, that doesn't mean I'm not happy" I said smiling at him. It wasn't a lie either I did have a lot on my mind manly work. I was in the middle of working on a case before I came here and I really wanted to get back to it. Austin pulled me out of my train of thoughts when he said "I'm going to make you forget about all that so you can have fun!" he said smiling at me "you don't have to do that, I'm fine really." I said "no I want too." He said smiling this is why I love him he is just so sweet. By then we were back at the cabin.
I looked at my phone to see if I had any messages when I noticed I misted a call from work. "I'm going to step outside for a moment I have to call someone" I told Austin "ok". I stepped outside it to the cool evening air. I could hear the crickets chirping and the owls hooting. Maybe I could turn into a bird and fly away? I brushed the thought away and got back to the task at hand. I called work my friend Andrew answered " Hello agent Brown specking" "why do you sound so formal Andy?" I said "because Lilah this is my work phone I have to answer that way just in case I get an important call" he said "are you saying my calls aren't important!" I said pretending I was offended, but he knows me too well "you know what I mean stop acting like that." I could hear the laughter in his voice. "So what's up?" I said "well you know that case you have been working on? The missing savant girl?" Andy said sounding reluctant "yeah" I said nervously "well…. Your off the case." Andy said "WHAT!" I yelled into the phone. "And you're getting a new partner." Andy said. He didn't sound like he wanted to be the one to tell me this. "WHY?!" I said still shocked "would you calm down and stop yelling at me! It's not because they don't think you can handle this, because they know you can it's just that they need you even more on another case." He said "what but we have been working really hard on that case we almost have it." I said I know I sounded sad. "It's because they need you more on this other case. You can do more good with that." He said "But what about you why aren't you helping me on this case?" I asked still not very happy with the arrangements. "They want two savants on the case not just one, and I'm not a savant" he said. "Ok. I'll start first thing when I get back" I sighed "Sorry but they said they want you back right away" said Andy "Do you know where I am? I'm in the middle of nowhere in Kansas!" I said "I'm your best friend I know you don't want to be there. I thought you would be happy to get away. Your just upset about the case thing aren't you?" he said. But it more than that what will my mom think about me leaving? "Maybe. Ok yes." I lied "I knew it" he said sounding proud of himself "So who's my new partner?" I said changing the subject. "Some guy named Victor Benedict" he said. "Benedict you say?" I said where had I heard that name? "Yeah you know him?" he asked surprised "I don't know maybe, it sounds familiar. Is he any good?" I asked. "He better be their sending you to Colorado to work with him." I could almost see him smiling because he knew I was unhappy with this. "Colorado! He better be good if I'm going to Colorado just to work with him" I say "yeah well I guess I better leave you to pack. You have a long adventure ahead of you. Call the boss man for details." He said "Ok. Thanks Andy. Bye!" I said "Bye Lilah! Good luck!"
Hmm Victor Benedict. Benedict, where have I heard that name? Oh well, I guess I'll figure out soon. But it still bugs me, who is Victor Benedict?
