Destined to save them all

4. The letter

Alexs' Pov

Once I get home I dump my bag near the door holding my breath I go straight to the kitchen to start dinner. I can't hear Brad anywhere so he must not be home yet. I let out the breath I was holding and calm myself down. I grab everything out for spaghetti and meatballs. I've always liked cooking mum taught me a lot. I dont have time to make the pasta so I grab the packet stuff Brad wouldnt know the difference. I grab everything to make the sauce and the meatballs.

30 minutes later everything it's ready. I'm just plating as Brad gets home and slams the front door shut behind himself.

I know he can smell dinner but it doesn't stop him from yelling and telling me it better be on the table ready for him. I plate up his, leave a little for myself I dont eat much and especially not infront of him he accuses me of eating all his food. I learnt that lesson a few months ago.

"you better not be eating all my food again. I buy the food not you. You eat what I let you eat" he says once I place his plate infront of him.

"No Brad I wasn't. Thank you for the food I appreciate it" its all I can say to make sure he doesn't hit me, again lesson learnt.

I lower my head as I leave back to the kitchen to eat my dinner. I hate that man so much. I've learnt it's no use fighting or talking back its gets me nowhere. He will never break me though my mum taught me to be strong and I will be for her so I can find her.

I finish my few mouthfuls of food, have a glass of water and clean the kitchen and his dishes he just left on the table. It looks like he even licked the plate clean.

I go grab my bag and head to my room. Im so mentally exhausted when I lay on my bed. But I just remember the letter from my mum so I grab my bag pull out the book. I study the cover again running my hands over the cover trying to figure out what it has to do with me.

I set it aside and pull out the letter. I close my eyes grab my pendant and breath. Alright mum what is going on.

My sweet baby girl

I dont exactly know what went wrong but obviously I'm not with you at the moment and its not my choice I promise you that. This is the only way I could let you know I'm ok I dont know what has happened since I was taken but I had to get word to you. Keep this book safe take it everywhere with you dont let it out of your sight please. You will understand soon why. I can't tell you anything about it. The Rings as you can tell one is smaller its yours please wear it always like your pendant. The larger one is for a male you need to find him. He is as lost as you. His mum would have been taken too. You need to get him that ring as soon as possible. I can tell you he is your age he will be muscular and tall and possibly goes to your school other then that I dont know anything im sorry. That's all I can tell you. I can't come back but soon enough you will find me.

I love you so much. Your life is about to change. Find the boy you can't do it with out him.

Love mum
