ALWAYS AND FOREVER

Chapter 99



Cross POV

The next morning, I was up early, I didn’t want to waste any time, the plan we had seemed good and easy enough, I wanted my wife back, this morning I had to call my parents ad hers, I couldn’t keep it from them anymore, they deserved to know what’s going on with us, I called my mom first.

“Son, what’s going on, you never call me,”

“Mom, it’s Kathy, she has been kidnapped,”

I revealed as the tears started again, I couldn’t just seem to get the tears from coming.

“What? When did that happen?”

“About four days ago,”

“And you are just telling me, Cross what did you think you are doing? Why didn’t you tell us as soon as it happened?”

“Mom, I am sorry, I didn’t want you guys to worry,”

“Well, we would be whether you tell us now or later, what did I tell you about keeping things to yourself?”

“I am sorry mom,”

I replied, I felt guilty for not telling them sooner, I should have listened to Dean and just told them.

“Are you okay? Have you had any information? We will be in New York before the day ends,”

My mom said I didn’t want them coming over which is why I hadn’t told them, I didn’t want them to know just how much I messed up and dragged Kathy into my mess, all these won’t have happened if I had just listened and not have anything to do with Ginna,”

“Mom, you don’t have to come,”

“Don’t say nonsense, do you have any information on her?”

“Yes, we do and they are requesting for hundred million,”

“That’s huge, do you have enough?”

“I do but the police,”

“Okay, you got them involved good, your dad wants to talk to you,”

She said as I heard my dad’s voice in the background before he took the phone.

“Son, be strong okay? Don’t do anything on your own, okay? We will be there soon, I am calling people, don’t make the mistake of going there alone,”

My dad advised.

“I am not going alone dad, I can’t risk that,”

“Good, do we know who it is?”

That’s the part I was scared of the most, Ginna had been someone my parents didn’t like, now I realized it had nothing to do with her background and everything to do with what they saw in her that I was too blind to see, I can’t believe I kept that woman in my heart for so long, she was the devil, I didn’t want my parents finding out that I let her come into my life again, my mom was kind but never with Ginna, my parents saw through her but I never did, Ginna didn’t love me for once, she lived the money and the thought of being associated with the Salvadors name.

“Yes, dad,”

I said honestly, they were going to find out anyway, I felt ashamed, felt guilty.

“Who my dear?”

My dad was extra calm, and for some reason, it gave me some sort of comfort.

“Ginna,”

I revealed, my dad didn’t know who that was so I told them everything, not leaving out a single detail even Louis involvement, I didn’t tell them about the sex tape and the photos taken of me and Ginna though, those were my and Kathy’s secret, I didn’t want my parents to know that the call ended after my parents told me to keep them posted, and they will be in New York through the next available flight, I hoped by the time they come back, Kathy would already be back.

When I stepped out of my room, I met Grace who was leaving the room she uses in the house, she and Dean decided it would be bad for me to be alone so they both decided to come to live here for the time being, although she doesn’t talk much, she has been a major help, voicing her opinion most logically and simply that she entered my respect, I felt stupid for once thinking she was no good.

“Hey, man, how are you doing today?”

She asked waving at me, she was super pretty, but my wife was prettier.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“Hi, I feel horrible and lifeless,”

“Yeah, I understand to some extent, I felt that way when everything I had and lived was taken away from me but there is a bright side though, you can get your family back, I know it will be fine,”

She assured and I nodded thanking her.

“Where is Dean?”

“I don’t know, we had a little misunderstanding last night and he angrily left, oh, he is back,”

She said pointing at him as he entered the house, he frowned at her before turning to me with a look of concern, I knew my situation was serious but I also really wanted to know what was on with those two because they were acting suspiciously.

“We are leaving by five pm right?”

“Yes, that’s the time he picked,”

“It’s cool, we had got this covered, the men and security are already getting ready, don’t worry we will get your wife back,”

He encouraged, Grace, excused herself, and left, leaving just me and Dean who hissed when she exited.

“What’s going on Dean?”

“With who me? Nothing,”

“Don’t lie, you are clearly mad at Grace and it is showing, what happened?”

“She got a new boyfriend,”

“And?”

“And nothing, I don’t like the dude, he is not good for her,”

“And you are?”

“I never said I was good, I wasn’t talking about me, I was talking about her, that dude ain’t good for her and she is not listening,”

“She is a grown-ass woman and she can make her own choices,”

“I know that okay, but that doesn’t mean the choices can always be right,”

“You are just mad that she is with someone else,”

“I am not,”.”

“Okay, let’s get my wife back and I might help you get your woman back to you,”

“She is not my woman,”

“Dude, keep telling yourself that.

I answered and left him to get ready, I prayed that by the end of today, my wife would be with me, another day without her would be hellish…

“Please don’t wander off on your own, we don’t know if they have a gun or not, do let’s follow instructions okay?”

The officer in charge asked and I nodded, I couldn’t risk making any mistake and putting the safety of Kathy at risk, we were here at the location waiting for the moron, I already called him and he said he would be here soon, but he wasn’t even hereafter over one hour, I don’t know what to feel about that, did he change his mind?

“Why is it taking so long though,”

I couldn’t help asking.

“We can’t really tell but if we wait for another hour and he doesn’t show up, then we will go in,”

He replied and I nodded, anxiously waiting.

“We are going in,”

The officer announced after over one hour, I couldn’t even function because I kept thinking of what might have made him not shoe up, did he find out there were people out here with me? Could that be it?

“I sent some men in,”

He said again and we waited another twenty minutes.

“We have to wrong location, what the fuck? How did that happen?”

He yelled into the phone giving out instructions, I just sat there dumb, the wrong location? Then where the fuck was my wife?

His phone rang again and I listened as he talked to the person on the other end.

“This is this place but our man just turned himself in to the police,”

“What? Why? Where is my wife then?”

“She is here and he is saying the woman wants to kill people that he doesn’t kill,”

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go,”

I said getting out of the car, if Louis wasn’t here anymore which means Ginna was alone, it would be easier to deal with her, God how I wanted to kill that woman with my bare hands…
