073 The cover up
Nicklaus
I already called all my family including Ava’s parents and they said Ava is not with them, they asked what happened and I told them everything, I don’t even know what happened how did I end up with that mysterious girl all of that is still strange to me, Ava’s family is so worried just like mine, Ava father already involved the police to start searching everywhere for her, and my dad involved the CIS department
“Come on bro you need to calm down,” Chris said, I called him and told him what happened and he rushed down here immediately
“Calm down? When my heartbeat is missing, come on don’t you get it, we didn’t even know where she is or what’s happening to her if she’s okay or not”
“We have to be careful bro, at this moment everybody is a suspect,” Chris said
“What do you mean?”
“Do you have any enemy, I mean the Ava we know can not just disappear out of the blue, she’s a smart woman so this is definitely weird, after the argument, did she leave with someone?”
I thought about it for a minute and then my mind remembered Sherly
“You know bro you’re right, Sherly showed up at our engagement mysteriously yesterday, she was asking for forgiveness, I told Ava that we shouldn’t listen to her and that I do not believe that bitch but Ava was too good and kind to listen she accepted that bitch as her friends immediately and even convinced me into accepting a drink from that bitch, I can still remember feeling dizzy after taking that drink and that’s when I went upstairs”
“Perfect bro I think I get the whole stuff now”
“What are you talking about”
“Sherly never showed up till the night of your engagement party, she knew Ava has a kind heart and that’s why she used her into getting you to take that wine, are you thinking what I’m thinking,” Chris asked with a raised eyebrow
And just like a realization, it dawned on me immediately
“The wine is drugged”
“Bingo! You got it, bro, Sherly showed up with an ulterior motive”
“You know now I remembered that immediately Ava left, Sherly followed her behind”
“So this means one thing, it’s either Ava is staying with Sherly or Sherly is keeping her hostage”
“The Ava I know would have come back it’s evening already”
“And that’s why we have to act dumb to get what we want”
“Dumb?”
“Yes Nick, remember Sherly is obsessed with you, that woman is a psycho, I have a feeling she’ll show up today, and trust me she’ll lie not knowing of Ava’s whereabouts, we’ll have to watch her move, watch her statement and follow her secretly”
“You’re right bro, thank you so much for being a friend and a brother”
“Come on man Ava is my friend too”
And just like we expected Sherly walked into the living room, dressing casually
“Here comes the devil” I muttered looking away,
“Hi” She greeted me looking so calm
“Hi” I replied
“Ehm, I’m here to see Ava”
“You’re with her, both of you left yesterday?” Chris asked her
“Ahhh…. no.. no…she left before I came out” She stuttered
“Left?” I asked and she nodded
“Is she not back yet?” She asked
“No, she’s not and you might know where she is since she’s your friend..”
“I’m sorry I don’t” She replied looking at me
“What happened to your voice?”
“My voice?” She said touching her throat
“Your voice changed, why?”
“Maybe cause I have cough”
“But you looked fine yesterday?”
“I became tired after helping out with the chores”
“Ohh okay”
“Can I get your number?” Chris asked her catching me off guard
“Number, why?”
“Cause I have a crush on you and since you’re Ava’s friend let’s keep in touch,” Chris asked with a flirty smile
“Ohh okay sure”
Chris gave Sherly his phone and she inputted her number,
“Thanks, I’ll call you”
“Hmmm” She nodded and looked at me
“I’ll come back to know when she’s back, please take care”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
I nodded and watch as she left, I turned to Chris immediately
“Bro something is strange”
“What’s that?”
“This person has the same face as Sherly but her voice is not the same as Sherly and she’s a bit taller than Sherly plus Sherly has a birthmark on her chest a big black mole, if only I can see her chest then I can tell if she’s Sherly or not”
“That means we have to act dumb, the next time she comes, you’ll act like you’re back to her again, do whatever you can to see her chest”
“Sure I can do anything for my Ava, this seems more complicated than I thought”
“The Sherly that showed up yesterday night was it the real Sherly?”
“I was sure bro it was the real Sherly, why did you take her number though?”
“To be able to monitor her phone calls, I’ll update you on any strange things tomorrow”
“Thanks, bro”
“Nick do you install CCTV in this your new mansion”
“Fuck bro I almost forgot”
“Shit! Let’s go check it out” Chris said and we left immediately for my computer room upstairs,
“Wait I’m more experience with computers,” Chris said taking over, for the past thirty minutes we’ve been searching but no clue suddenly Chris caught a video of Ava running out of the mansion, and she’s with a lady”
“That’s Sherly bro that’s Sherly!” I screamed in anger and watched as the car zoomed off,
“Something is strange bro,” Chris said catching my attention,
“What’s that?”
“Watch this,” He said and zoomed a video showing an unknown person entering a car and followed up on Sherly’s and Ava’s car immediately
“This is strange” I muttered slowly
“And this means there’s a third party” Chris added,
“I can’t put this together bro”
“But I can” Chris added
“I think someone is monitoring Sherly’s movement”
“Wait could that person be the one that just left right now”
“Exactly bro, this person knows about this whole scenario and might even be keeping Sherly and Ava hostage and for this person to show up here means one thing”
“A cover-up, to cover up her mess and make it look like she’s innocent in her own part” I added and Chris nodded his head
“The only way we can say this is not Sherly is by playing her getting to see her chest, and boom game over”
“I’ll monitor her calls, she can’t hide forever,” Chris said
I hope this whole thing ends soon, I miss my woman
