Departure

Part 5

The next day

Hello diary,

actually I need the contact on the daily base. So finally I need you in the form Mom asked me to do. I need you to let go all my fears, my joy and tell about my hopes. My hopes ... finally I do have some again.

Since our return yesterday, Jarod is searching the main frame for informations about Jimmy. During my absence, Broots found the room where he is now situated. A nurse is always around him, if not his personal trainer does. Yes, trainer ...

He is trained already though he is only 2 and a half years old. He is very smart, yet speaking in whole phrases. They lecture him in maths – can you believe it - and in some kinds of science. There is no space to play in his room, no toys, except the little bunny I gave him just after birth. Once the nurse tried to get the bunny out of his clasp. Jimmy threw such a big tantrum that they returned the toy to him. Broots found a DSA of this scenery.

It´s the bunny I got from you, mom, when I was little and I loved it. When you died I saved it in a hidden place inside the cellar. I needed these things afterwards or I would have lost myself under the cruelty of Daddy's behaviour.

But I am still here, going on, having a dream of a small family living in a nice and secure home – real home, with a fence around it and a loving husband around. I haven´t dreamt in years ´til now. But here am I ... sitting in front of you and hoping again. It feels so right to be with him, my friend. He´s staying with Broots fortunately. Otherwise I don´t know if I could go to my office and keep the chase on fire.

Lyle came in this morning, Raines and Willie in tow. Sam entered the room and told me later, he had a very bad feeling when he saw them coming over. Therefore he decided to come in, too. My guardian angel. I felt secure and protected then.

The ghoul once more demanded results and gave me an ultimatum. 3 months from today. Afterwards I will become his personal servant. I couldn´t help but started a laughter. What a joke he is. But I will never underestimate him or my dear little bro. Both are up to something, but what is it?

Sam pointed to the vents when my ´3 best friends´ left the room. Angelo was climbing down and brought some small discs. "NEWS!!" he said and left again.

I didn´t feel too good to face a new secret of my family alone, so I didn´t start the PC yet. The voices told me to wait until I have a friend nearby. Sam and the others agreed to come over for dinner tonight. Then I will take a look into it.

My oven timer is ringing. I have to go. Though I never was really good in cooking, I prepared the dinner myself. If I don´t leave now everything will be burnt. So bye now.
