Chapter 10 - Paranoid
Visits to Relatives had never been particularly interesting for Liam, even though they were not his true Relatives, so the 22-year-old had resigned himself to this and was more than grateful to his adoptive family that they had accepted him. Once he had met his biological Parents and they had been different views as him, since then Liam would not have any more Contact with them.
Now his father had sent him off, he was supposed to get the Pizza for the three Girls, who would make a Girls Evening at Home. Since Liam was with his own Car by the Relatives, he drove now directly to the Pizza Restaurant and parked his car there. Pizza was always good and he was pretty sure that his little Sister and her two Friends would spend a good Evening at home. Where there would be no Danger, for the 19-year-old, she could watch a Movie with her the other Girls, eat Pizza and maybe drink some Cola. So any kind of danger, was absolutely impossible, that Nila would come to silly Thoughts or even consider the possibility of leaving the House.
Yes, the little One would not even come, up with such foolish Ideas, because after he had made sure that she had left her room weeping, yesterday, Liam could be sure, that she would not be very angry.
So Liam entered the Pizzeria, were a few Customers were before him, and it was quite fast, so Liam hold fifteen Minutes later, four Pizza Cartons in his arm and went back to his Car. There he loaded the Pizza Cartons on the Passenger Seat and then drove home. So the three girls and he himself, of course, would get hot Pizzas.
"Ouch ... they are really hot", Liam muttered, after parking his Car in front of his Parents' House and tried to carry the four Pozza boxes out of his Car. He quickly closed his Car Door and was very happy , that the one small button on the Car Key, which allowed him to close his car worked completely automatically.
...
When Liam walked with the Pizza Boxes on the Arm, up the stairs to the front door, he was suprised, that the front Door was open ... well, perhaps his parents had counted on the Fact, that he was badly fishing his Key out of his Pocket, If he has to balance the Pizza Boxes on hia Arm. So Liam entered the House, closed the front Door as best as he could.
"Girls! I'm there with your pizzas!", He shouted loudly, who knows whether the three Girls are already watching a Movie or are engaged in a Girls Conversation.
When the 22-year-old finally stepped into the Kitchen with the Pizza Boxes, he immediately realized that his parents had Quarrel, because
his mother was shaking her Head and seemed not that the two will noticed the arrival of him. A little confused, as he had rarely seen his mother so thoughtfully and head-shaking, Liam placed the Pizzas on the Table in the Kitchen.
"Mum is everything ok...?" Liam asked, heard the loud sigh of Hannah Wilkers some Seconds later.
"I ... i told Paul it was not good", Hannah said, looking worried at Liam.
"What is ... what is not good, where is Dad?", Liam continued, not understanding his mother's Behavior.
"He's up stairs, he's very angry", Hannah said.
"Why is he angry? I go and look for him", Liam decided and quickly disappeared from the Kitchen, to take the Stairs to Nilas Room.
As he took quickyl Steps, he heard his father was already cursing furiously and something crashed. Worried about the Fact, that his father had had a bad day, Liam first wanted to look into Nila's Room, but he had reached the end of the Stairs, before he saw the open Room Door of his younger sister.
"That's ... peculiar", Liam said, walking directly into his sister's room, while in the background, he only heard his father still cursing.
...
"It was not very good ... that her Room Door is open and what ... ", Liam had now entered the Rroom of Nila and looked at the untidy Bed, of the 19-year-old, there lay the Letter that never belong to Nila, so Liam reached for the letter and looked shocked at the Lines.
"Mum, Dad, I think we have a Problem", Liam said and quickly took the letter, left his sister's Room, only to meet his Father on the Floor.
"Oh, yes, we have!", His father replied, took the Letter out of Liams Hand and was on his Way to go quickly into the Kitchen.
Since Liam could not expect an Answer at the Moment, he just followed his Father into the Kitchen . Liam had never seen him so ... angry and impulsive.
"She did not accept my Call, can you imagine that Hannah?", Paul pounded the Letter on the Table, wich saying that the Scar from Nila had been surgically manipulated.
"She found the letter? But...how?" Hannah replied irritably.
"I put the Letter away , in a Corner where she would never look ... but the Neckband is also gone ...", Paul replied.
"Why did not you throw it away!? what if she... what if she remember anything? ", Hannah snorted furiously and began to run uneasily back and forth in the small kitchen .
"Wait... think about it, the Doctors have assured us, that Nila can not remember anything, during the 4 Year Therapy, she does not even know, who the Joker is ", Liam said.
"No, no, these Girls have put Nila bad Ideas in her in Head, and now she is ... I do not know where she is...we have to find her!", Hannah's hand trembled that she could not even make it to put the glass in the Closet, so the Glas crushed to the Ground and break.
"She does not know... how is out there ...she can not meet the Joker...that´s not possible?", Paul said, glancing at the house key, which belong to Nila.
...
"She left ... her key here ... these Girls have a bad impression on her", Hannah said angrily, and Liam had pulled out his phone.
"I have the Number of Tessa's Parents ... I will call and ask them, if they know where the three wanted to go", with these Words Liam left the Kitchen and a few seconds later, he had the Mother of Tessa on the Phone.
The Face from Liam was tense and worried at the same Time.
"I know where the Three are ... in the Club, a few Miles away from here ... according to rumors, from a few Friends, someone is the Owner of this Club ... someone who are not allowed to see the Nila in any Case. ... the Joker is the Owner of the Club and... if I trust the rumors of my Friends, who have been there many times, the Entrances are strict and cold ", Liam said and he was worried about Nila. If she was really is there with her Girlfriends... in this Club ... they would have to do something immediately.
His father Paul was already a Step further... and so his Mum and he also ran out of the House, they sat a little later in the Car and since Liam knew from his friends where this Club was , the young adult hoped that they would not be to late.
"I will not allow , that this disturbed Clown bring my Daughter back into her derogatory, disturbed Behavior!", Liam's Dad said paranoid, his Voice sounding angry and trembling as he stepped on the Gas Pedal and left the small town, the Club was getting closer and closer, it was only a Question of Time, when Liam, Paul and Hannah would arrive there.
