The Love that Never Really Dies

“Mommy, what happened? Why was your phone signal jammed?” Matteo asked.

“That old man sent your father away again to base camp for training. I was so mad that I got into a fight with him, so he locked me up and jammed my phone.”

Sasha revealed everything to her kids because she thought it wouldn’t hurt for her kids to learn about her current situation.

She wasn’t worried about them being traumatized or anything. On the contrary, she thought they might even be able to help her.

Matteo flew into a rage upon that. “What a jerk!”

Ian’s face darkened. “Mommy, what are you going to do about it?”

“I need to get out of here first. That’s the only way I can reach your father. Once I know his exact location, your Aunt Sabrina and I can come up with ways to save him.”

“Okay!” Matteo and Ian replied easily.

Sasha hung up the phone.

After a few minutes, a shrill siren rang through the hall as the fire alarm went off. Everyone rushed outside to stare at the building Sasha was in anxiously.

“What is it? What happened? What set off the alarm?”

“I think it’s coming from the elevator!”
