Twist Of Fate: Three Little Miracles

Meanwhile…..

It was dimly lit at Diana’s abode. The three story building. The atmosphere seemed very lively although nothing special was going on.

Stoic was focused on his laptop while Legacy was and Jennifer were going through some diary they said they got from the president generals Library and by now they had downloaded all the informations the needed about the president general.

Stoic on the other hand whistling soon froze on the spot when a webpage displayed the information of Hannah Smith.

“Guyss!!” He called out to his brother and sister and at once they stopped what they were doing and rushed to meet who called them, their elder brother.

“Take a loot at this…..!! It’s Hannah, Dad’s fiancee and she seem to have a a relationship with Jake Bernard even though likely in the past.” Stoic spoke as he navigated the webpage, scrolling through the page.

Stoic was going through all the events that happened on that day their mother got into an accident from head to toe without wanting to miss any vital information thus, he stumbled across this that was open in front of them.

“Damnit! I have always felt something wasn’t right with that lady….. Com’on what else have you found out?” Legacy inquired.

“Sweethearts… I’m back!”

The three Rugrats immediately closed the webpage on their browser upon hearing their mothers voice. They didn’t wanted their mother to have any slightest or faint idea about what they were up to.

‘Mommmm… Her Royal Majesty!” The Rugrats walked out of the room one after another calling out to their mum excitedly and threw themselves at her..

Seeing that the stayed in their room obediently, Diana squatted with a smile “I hope you three are not still traumatized about what happened in school today?”

When the question popped in, the kids mind flashed back to the intruder forcefully cutting their hair way, but they soon shaked it off. “But, mum why would they my brothers hair away?” Jennifer was the one who asked while tilting her head.

“I don’t know yet, but very soon …” Diana assured her kids.

“I’m the one who gave birth to these indeed, little miracles as Felicity would always address them as…. Can I not know them any better?” Diana smiled bitterly.

The most mischievous and bravest kid among the three children had always been the second child, Legacy. He definitely didn’t inherit his cynical and scheming personality form his mother. Who else if not their father? Thinking about their father Diana was thrown into thoughts. ‘Jake??? No, it can’t be him’ . The eldest, Stoic had always been more dependable and warm hearted while Jennifer was the families pet, but however, she is the abnormal and unorthodox one. One who would readily lead her brothers astray with her love for quirky ideas.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“Mummy…. You look worried. Is there anything unsettling?” Jennifer who was extremely observant was quick to point out, she noticed the colour on Diana’s face changed and of a truth it changed, when Diana kept on thinking about the possibilities of Jake being the kids father ‘I can’t let him’ she said to herself when she remembered the little knowledge about why and what happened in her past life that led to her divorcing Jake. The little knowledge was even from the news broadcaster six years ago.

Diana was stunned. Although she is trying to wear a bright face, her daughter was quick to notice.

“Mum? Mum ….. Is it about Jake’s threat? He is not our father and don’t mind his empty threats. He can’t take us away from you…” Said Stoic as he embraced his mum more tightly. Diana was further stunned. As if the kids were reading her thoughts.

“Don’t worry mom….” Legacy added pleadingly. They didn’t like their mum wearing a worried face or getting worried intrinsically.

Diana only just forced the corner of her lips upwards, smiled and, stood up upon seeing her kids were being able to see through her once again. ‘Children…. Leave the matter for me. I can handle it. I’ll go make you some food!’

She was about to go to the kitchen when Stoic called out to her.

“Mum …”

Diana turned and see the fury in Stoics eyes. “Why is he infuriated?”

‘Oh, common kid…. is it because I called you guys children?’ Diana was able to just able to discern what had gotten Stoic maddened.

“Stop calling us children. We’re adults!” Stoic countered in an annoyed tone.

“Young adult!” Jennifer added to buttress her big brothers point. The both of them hated being addressed as children. They always want to play adult and mature mind games. Legacy was not very much interested on how particularly he is addressed to referred to.

Walking back into the kitchen Diana curled her lips looking through the window.

Presently at the President General ward….

Mark, Hannah and Owens had gone there to find a signature largely painted with a red temporary spray on the left wall of the sitting room. The signature particularly was for Mark, from his mother and only him would be able to understand it.

From just a mere glance, he distinguished the message was for him and it didn’t take him long to crack the signatures underneath message ‘Meet me up at Claves bar, tonight 8pm alone….. Yours lovely… your mum’ .

It’d take even a crazy smart detective to be able to detect with their senses any underlying message underneath the signature.

One was an open eye that was decorated with a zig zag shape. The other, because the signature were tek was like two crossed sickles. The former conveyed the time and the latter conveyed the message.

“Who the hell drew that?” Owens shouted.

“Check the perimeters… surround the exit….” He ordered at once…

“Don’t bother … She is gone!” Mark quenched the order.

Owen understood…. And he didn’t push in further. He didn’t train Mark to be a fool, since he said ‘so’, it was exactly ‘so’..

“Whoever…. it’s ….. don let your guards down…..” Owner added

Mark wondered a bit how his mum found him and entered the basement unnoticed and now dropped a message for him and also must have left the military base unnoticed as well. It’d require great skill for that……..

Owens turned to Hannah who stood beside Mark elegantly ‘So, what’s your name?’ he asked.

“Hannah sir!” Hannah responded. She didn’t even gave it too much thought before responding. Owens knitted his eyebrows ‘Hannah? that name doesn’t sound like the name my old lover told me … But, however Mark must have confirmed her by seeing the symbol of overlapping circles in her thighs. ‘I trust mark!’ Owens said and waved the thoughts off.

It was at that moment Richarlison walked up to Mark and whispered something to him.

“Excuse me Grandpa…. I have some stuff to handle, will be home before dinner time…” Mark excused himself and darted outside with Richarlison following his steps..

Now it was just Hannah and Owens left in the sitting room. Hannah rattlingly walked upstairs on the excuse she was pressed and now it was only Owens left. He sat on the sofa next to him….

“Finally… I can die now with every of my wish satisfied!”

Meanwhile, When Hannah entered her bedroom – she heard the sharp two-tone beep that signaled that a text message had just arrived on her cell phone. The phone itself was lying folded on the bedside table; Hannah picked it up and saw that the message was from Jake.

She flipped the phone open and scrolled hastily down to the text. She read it twice, just to make sure she wasn’t imagining things. “This is getting more risky” she exclaimed. It was the message Jake sent her immediately he left the hospital about the kids…

Mark and Richarlison soon arrived at Sterling City Police station. A message had been sent out to Richarlison that one of the intruders who guised themselves as education inspectors to cut away children’s hair at Einstein Academy had been caught and Mark wanted to handle the case personally….

As the president general, he had rights over the military and also the police force.

The dazzling desk lamp shone on the criminal who spatted a mouthful of blood. Mark sneered… he must have received some criminal drilling..

No one could actually hide anything under the lamps effect. It’s mostly used in the military.

“Who sent you?” Mark said, shooting the criminal an icy murderous glare. The criminal was terrified at the sight of it and began to shiver.

“We only got a contact… we don’t know who it was that contacted us, it was close contract that worth five hundred dollars.” The criminal explained under a terrified effect. He was shaking and his teeth gritting.

Mark could actually tell if one was lying and this dude in front of him wasn’t…..

Hearing that, Mark snorted before walking out of the interrogation room.

“Take him to justice” Mark told the policeman responsible for the case and walked out with Richarlison beside.

“Any information about Danny’s corpse?” Mark asked Richarlison as he entered the G-Wagon , their transport medium. He sat comfortably at the passenger seat while Richarlison at the drivers seat.

Richarlison buckled his belt before he responded.

“Not yet found ….”

However, there were fleets of Hilux cars loaded with military officers that follows the president general, whenever he is going outside the basement.
