Daniel:

'How are you feeling Daniel?', David's Mom asked me as I fingered the mashed potatoes. I nodded. 'You can talk to us anytime you want Daniel. We are here to help', David's dad said startling me.'Thank you very much', I forced a smiled. 'No need to thank us. it's no trouble at all'.

It's been almost a month now since I've been in their house and they've been both very nice. I enjoyed the company but it didn't stop the daily sadness that crept under my skin when I'm alone or the insomnia that I suffered from. I finished my food and went upstairs to try to get some sleep. I turned around in bed for hours but didn't get any sleep. I checked the clock to see it was already 5:00am in the morning.

I put on a coat and some shoes and quietly opened my door and went downstairs. I quietly opened the front door and walked out of the house meeting the cold air that blew against my face. I walked for a distance before I got to a flower shop. I bought some lilies and walked back the same road I came towards the graveyard. Reaching my parents tomb, I knelt down and put some of the lilies each for them. I felt the tears pouring as I remembered what David said.

'He killed your parents', it echoed in my head and I sobed more. 'Why did they lie to me?', I suddenly said out loud. 'They told me you both die in an accident. I don't know what to believe anymore. I wish you both where still here things would have been better'. I touched my necklace and it made me feel a little better. 'I found someone mom. He makes me feel good about myself but I don't know if I'm good enough for him', I said tearily.

I cleaned my face and started walking out of the graveyard when my phone made a notification sound. I took out my phone and saw a two texts from My lawyer and two from David. I opened the text from my lawyer;

Mr Charles: Daniel we need to meet

Me: Why?

Mr Charles: I can't say over text it needs to be discussed.

Me: Okay

Me: Where should I meet you

Mr Charles: Near the cafe I parked my car there.

Me: Okay

I closed the text and opened the one from David;

David: Where the hell are you?

Me: I just went for a walk

David: Where are you?

Me: Going to the cafe.

David: I will be there in 10

I saw a familiar car near the cafe and I went towards the passengers side opening it and entering it. 'About time', he said locking the door. 'Whats so important that you need me to come'. He sighed starting the car. 'You'll see for yourself', he started driving. 'No stop I don't want to go anywhere just tell me'. 'I said you'll see for yourself', he said raising his voice.

This didn't sound like the person I had known since I was little. it sounded like a different person entirely. I decided to bring out my phone without him noticing;

Me: Help!

David: What happened? I haven't seen you anywhere

Me: I think my lawyer might have tricked me. you have to find me.

I immediately put my phone on silence and decided to make a conversation. 'So who are this people we are meeting. I really want to know...', I was cut off my a hand colliding with my neck knocking me out....
