Lost in your love

Decoding it

We both had the cake. It was so fun.

"You're so sweet. You know how to impress me.", I said.

Rean chuckled.

"Rean. It was really hard for me to digest that you were doubting on me"

"I know. I regret for it.",he said bending his head down.

I hugged him from side.

"It's okay. I know you felt it because I was with Nic.",I whispered.

My parents were home early today.

"Is now Lia fine with you Rean?",mum asked.

"Yes mom. It was just a silly fight.", he said smiling at me.

I smiled back.

"Good then,"

Later Rean and mum went to grocery shop.

I thought this was the best time to ask about that address.

I saw dad in the hall.

"Dad!"

"Yes. Baby."

"Uh. I wan- wanted..",I was stammering and wondering how to ask to decode the address.

He was confused.

"I was playing a thing with Rean. Like writing addresses in code language like you had taught."

"Wow. Great Lia. Does he also know how to crack it?"

"No. Not yet. But I just got a random address. I am unable decode it. Would you help me?"

"Sure bud. Bring me."

I ran to the room. I had copied that code to a book from the letter.

I handed over it to dad.

"Hmm. Interesting. Let me open the map.", he said switching on the phone.

I noticed that his favourite ring was missing from his left hand.

"Where's your rin-"

"What? You couldn't identify this place?",he asked with an amused look.

"Which place dad?"

"It's New York dear. How come? You didn't know?"

I was completely astonished. Is Becca in New York?

"Lia?"

"Yeah dad. I was so into it. That I couldn't identify maybe."

"Hmm. You need to practise then."

"Yeah,",I tried to keep my posture calm. But I was hella nervous.

Rean and mum returned home. He looked at me and raised his eyebrow.

He took his phone out and typed something.

I took my phone out.

'Got the place name?',he texted.

I replied, 'Becca is in New York.'

He read but didn't give any expression and took the bags to kitchen right away.

"Dad. Did you just ship any of my letters to New York?"

"What? I-",dad asked looking at me seriously.

"No honey.", Mum interrupted.

"We haven't received any letter for you here.",she said firmly.

I felt weird the way they were answering.

"Okay.",I nodded.

Why was my dad shocked? I am overthinking I guess.

We have our flight to New York at midnight.

There wasn't much to pack. We left to the airport.

"Rean. You didn't stay here for long this time. Come back again.",mum said.

"What about me?",I pouted.

"You too baby.",dad said giving me a side hug.

We reached New York by early morning.

"So your sister can be in New York?"

"Hmm.",I said laying on the bed.

"Where are you gonna search her here?",Rean said unpacking his trolly.

"Dad was like it wasn't exactly like NewYork and there was a building's name written with it.",I oned my ipad.

"What was the name of the building?",he said laying next to me.

Rufansa

I searched for buildings with the names Rufansa. There were like thirty six buildings with same name around NY.

"Woh. That's too many.",Rean said peeping into the ipad.

"Yeah.",I said rubbing my eyes.

"I will start off searching. From tomorrow.",I said keeping ipad aside and cuddling to Rean.

"I will help you too.",he said covering both of us in blanket.
