Chapter 21
Madeline saw the goth woman run out of the store. ' That was weird! ' She was still looking outside when she thought she saw someone in a car on the other side of the street. A very familiar someone. She pushed the basket in her hand to in Greg's hands and ran outside.
" I need a break! "
She got outside the store and looked to the window of the car parked on the other side of the street. He saw his face, his eyes. Ones that were so familiar to her. She stood in shock, frozen in fear. He opened the window, throw out something and left. The car disappeared in the corner. She crossed the street, on the sidewalk there was a childs sock. The same one she put on Robert that morning.
She turned and ran back to the store, almost getting hit by a car on the way, but she didn't notice. She ran straight into the kitchen, ignoring the questions from his colleagues.
" Nathan! Did you hear from your mother today? "
The man looked at her confused.
" Not since I left this morning. Why? "
She ran to the back grabbed her things and ran to her car.
She kept calling Ms. Smith, but kept getting voice mail. She broke as many traffic laws as humanly possible on her way towards her building. Even with all her speeding it took her one hour to get there. She ran up the stairs. Ms. Smith's apartment door was ajar. She ran inside, Ms. Smith body was on the floor on the living room, bleeding from her chest. She ran through the apartment.
" Mandy! Bobby! It's mommy! Where are you? " No answer. " Mandy! Bobby? "
She was hyperventilating, she was about to run to her place when she saw a note taped to the wall next to the front door.
She approached tears on her eyes, but she could read the words perfectly.
My Dear,
How good to see you again. I missed you terribly, the time we were apart hurt me deeply. Why would you hurt me like that? After all I did for you.
I saw you in your new life of yours. I saw you with them. They're adorable, our kids. I thought I would get to know them. They look so much like you. I never thought that you would hide something like this from me. But we will talk about it when we meet.
Love
J
She was shaking, her legs gave out she fell kneeling on the floor. Crying and sobbing uncontrollably. After minutes of panick that felt like hours she got herself under control enough to make a call.
" Hello? "
" Sa-am? "
"Madie? Are you okay? Are you crying? "
" He too- ok them Sam. He took them from me."
" Hold on I'm gonna put you on speaker. " A second later she heard Dean's voice.
" Madie? What happened? " Dean asked.
" Who took who, Madie? " Sam said
" He took my babies. He took my babies from me. " She was sobbing, trying to control herself, but she couldn't.
" Did something happened to the kids? " They both asked.
" The twins father, he found me. And he took them. "
She heard the cursing coming from the other side of the line.
" Madie where are you? "
" I'm at Ms. Smith's place. She's dead, he left a note. "
" Madie. Listen to me. You have to hang up and call the police. "
" I can't. "
" You have to-"
" I CAN'T ! I'M WANTED FOR MURDER! I go there and they will arrest me! And no matter what I say they will never believe he did something wrong! He probably framed me for this one too! And even if by some miracle they believe me, he will kill them at the first sign of police. " She froze in the middle of her ranting. " I have to do something! " She stood from the floor and ran down the stairs.
" Madie! "
" Madie! "
" I have to find them! He won't hurt them! I won't let him! "
" CALM DOWN! " She heard Dean scream, that managed to make her stop in the middle of the stairs. " If you can't stay there go to a motel. Get a room and text us the number when you get there. "
" What?! How about Mandy and Bobby? I can't just sit and wait! "
" How are you going to find them? You wait, were only a few hours away. Find another phone and report the murder. "
" Right! I can do that! "
She got in her car and drove away. ' He will not hurt them! He won't! '.
