Ch. 4

Inside the Kennedy's house, Ada was sitting in the living room with tears rolling down her face, while Rebecca was in the other room talking on her phone.
"Alright. Well be careful alright? If you find Kyle let us know okay? And be careful too, the weatherman said possible of thunderstorms. I love you too. Bye," said Rebecca. Rebecca hung up her phone, and walked back to Ada. Rebecca sat down on the couch and rubbed Ada's back. "Everything's gonna be alright," Rebecca said soothingly. "I hope Kyle's alright," Ada whispered. "Don't worry everyone is doing their best to find Kyle. Even Jake is going out looking for him," said Rebecca.

Ada smiled and looked at Rebecca. "I'm very thankful for what Jake is doing. Your son is a good boy," said Ada. "Yeah he is. Just like his father," said Rebecca. "Kyle has never been by himself before. He's out there all alone, and especially the weather were going to have," said Ada. "Don't worry I'm sure he's fine,", said Rebecca.

With Jake...

Jake was cruising around town looking for Kyle. He gaved people flyers, and asked people if they have seen Kyle... but no luck. Jake stopped at the red light,
and sighed waiting for it to turn green. "Where are you Kyle," thought Jake. The light turned green, and he drove off, continuing to look for Kyle. Jake sooned parked at a gas station, and turned off the car to take a break. He sighed and closed his eyes for a minute until his phone rang. He opened his eyes and picked it up. "Hello," said Jake. "Jake it's Chad," said Chad. "Any news about Kyle?" asked Jake. "Yeah. This couple told me that they saw Kyle at the Church for some kind of event they were doing," said Chad. "Is he still there?" asked Jake. "They said he was still there when they left," said Chad.

"Alright I'm on my way thanks for the information," said Jake. Jake hung up his phone, turned the car on, and took off for the Church.

10 minutes later...

Jake parked beside the Church, and got out of the car in a hurry. He ran into the Church looking every where for Kyle. "KYLE YOU IN HERE?! KYLE!" yelled Jake. "Is something the matter son?" asked someone. Jake turned around and saw an old man who was probably the priest since he was dressed up as one. "I'm Father Michael. Do you need help with something?" asked Father Michael. "My name is Jake Cohen, and I've been looking for a boy name Kyle Kennedy. I heard he was here," said Jake. He held up the flyer and Father Michael took a good look at it. "Yes. He was here," said Father Michael. "Was?"
asked Jake in confusion. "Yeah. He left about 20 minutes ago," said Father Michael.

"DANG IT!", yelled Jake. Jake sat down on one of the benches, and Father Michael sat down beside him. "Is something the matter son?" asked Father Michael concernly. "He's been missing ever since this afternoon. I've been looking for him for sometime now. I think he ranaway cause his parents are getting a divorce," said Jake. "He did tell me about that," said Father Michael. "He did?" asked Jake.

30 minutes later...

Father Michael is sitting beside Kyle on a bench. "So what seems to be going on at home son?" asked Father Michael. "My parents are getting a divorce,"
said Kyle. "I'm very sorry about that son,"said Father Michael. "I just don't get it. Why are my parents fighting? My parents never fight before. I don't won't them to get a divorce. I just want things to be like in the old days," said Kyle sadly. "Listen even if your parents get a divorce, they'll still love you no matter what happens," said Father Michael concernly. "I want them to be happy like in the old days when we went to the Chateua Park," said Kyle.

Flashback...

Kyle, Leon, and Ada were at Chateua Park. Kyle and Leon were laughing and playing together on the jungle gym, and Ada was sitting down smiling at them playing. Kyle was on Leon's shoulders, and they were on top of the jungle gym laughing. "I hope this day never ends," said a very happy Kyle. Leon and Ada laughed, and Leon and Kyle kept on playing.

Back to Father Michael and Kyle...

"That was the best day I ever had," said Kyle. "Well there could still be days like that. Just remember the Lord will always be watching you," said Father Michael. "Yeah. Well I'm gonna go now," said Kyle. "Okay you be careful now," said Father Michael. "I will," said Kyle.

Present...

"...and that's what happened," said Father Michael. "Reminds me what my step-dad told me," said Jake. "What did he tell you?" asked Father Michael.
"About my dad," said Jake.

2 hours before Jake is at Church...

Jake and Chris walked into Chris's room. "What is it that you want to talk about Chris?" asked Jake. "About your dad... the day he died," said Chris. Jake's eyes widened. "What about him?" asked Jake. "He wanted me to tell you this before he died," said Chris.

3 years ago during the shooting...

Chris and Billy were behind their gun with their guns out. They ducked as the sound of gunshots were coming for them. Chris popped out of his spot shot his gun a few times and crouched down. Billy got up from his spot, then he fell down on the ground holding onto his neck. Chris hurried over to him and put both his hands on his neck. One of the officers saw this, and radio for an ambulence. "Don't worry Billy everything is gonna be okay! Help is on the way!" yelled Chris in worry. "Chris. Tell my wife and son that I love them. Tell... Jake... that I'm glad he's mine son. Tell him... I'm glad he came in my life. And please Chris... take care of them," said Billy. Then Billy took his last breath and died.

Back to Jake and Chris...

"...he said he was glad that you came in his life. And he loved you very much," said Chris. Jake's eyes were filled with tears, then he sobbed in Chris's shoulders. "Your father was a good man Jake," said Chris. "Thank you for telling me this Chris," sobbed Jake. After a few minutes Jake finally calmed down then Chris gaved him the keys to their new car. "Go find him Jake," said Chris with a smile on his face. "Thanks Chris," said Jake.

Present...

"That's what he told me about my father," said Jake. "Well I'm very sorry about that," said Father Michael concernly. "Well thank you for listening to me. I better go back to finding Kyle," said Jake. "Okay, just let me do this," said Father Michael. Father Michael put his hand on Jake's head, and he bowed his head and closed his eyes. "Dear Lord, please give Jake the strength to find Kyle, and return him safely. Amen.," said Father Michael. "Amen," said Jake. Here's a flyer, if Kyle comes back call this number. Okay?" asked Jake. "Alright,"said Father Michael. Jake began walking out to look for Kyle again.
"Time to find Kyle," thought Jake.
