Chapter 39: Chapter 39
Kyle's POV;
"Fine. I'll tell you." She finally surrendered.
"Go on.."
"I know they had an aunt in LA. Glendale to be specific."
"Great. Give me the address."
She took a pen from the desk and wrote something and handed it over to me. I read it and it looked legit.
"Thank you. Let's keep this encounter in this room."
"But first...Mr Peterson, You are fired!" I turn my attention to the man behind me.
"But she told you what you wanted, why am I getting fired?" He grumpily complained.
"Managers don't have sex with the people they are managing." I said before exiting the café.
I looked at the paper again and then decided to go home. When I arrived home, I noticed my father's official was in the garage.
I guess he's back.
I could already hear him screaming his lungs out at someone as I approached the front door. I took a deep breath as I opened the door and his attention fell on me.
"Look who it is! The son of the year!" He sarcastically announced and I rolled my eyes.
"Hello father." I reply coldly.
"Keep your greeting to yourself, your principal called me to tell me you have been absent from school for two weeks! Two! I won't talk too much. Just make sure you catch up on your school or else!" He scowled at me.
"Yes father." I replied him calmly and I left to go up to my room. I grabbed my laptop from my desk to look up the address Tatiana gave to me.
It was barely four hours away from here. I'd go there tomorrow.
I took a shower and laid down on my bed. My phone vibrated and I saw a group video call with Ashton and Brian.
I answered it and their faces popped up on my screen.
"I shouldn't have broken the news about Alexis like that to you. I thought you were already aware. I'm sorry." Ashton apologised.
"Nah, It's all good" I honestly told him.
"So what are you going to do about Alexis now?" Brian asked me.
"I'm going to Glendale tomorrow. To search for her. I already have an address."
"We should come with you."
"No. Don't worry I'll be good. I want to face her on my own."
"It's fine my dude."
I disconnected from the call and went to sleep. Tomorrow is gonna be a long day.
I took a shower and a backpack. I went straight to the kitchen to grab diet coke and some bags of chips for the drive. I put in a couple of clothes, took my keys and used the least fanciest car i could find.
I don't know my way but hopefully the car navigator should have a better idea. Then if not people will.
I buckle my seatbelt and prepare to drive out. My car clock read, 8AM and if my math is somewhat good, I should be in Glendale by 12 or 1PM.
I set out on my journey but first stopped at a nearby gas station to fill up my tank and I started driving. I put up the volume of my sound system so at least the journey wouldn't be too quiet.
My hands got tired of holding the steering wheel after two hours of driving and I parked to rest it. After which I ate a bag of skittles and started driving again.
I drove for two hours and thirty minutes until i saw the sign that read; Welcome to Glendale.
I smiled but my happiness was short loved and i realized I had to pee. I stopped at another gas station to use the restroom.
I didn't know this city. First i need to find a hotel then look for Alexis.
I finished and saw a lady at the counter.
"Good afternoon ma'am." I greeted the pretty lady.
"Good afternoon!" she smiled back
"I'm new here and I don't really know my way around this city. I'd like to know if there are any hotels nearby and also help in locating this address," I handed the note over to her.
She looks at it for awhile, "I know this part of town. My daughter lives around there and the hotel, there's one around there as well." She informed me and I let out a sigh of relief.
"I don't know where anything is. I'd appreciate it if you could show it to me?"
"Fine. But you will have to wait for at least two hours for my shift to end."
"That is fine by me."
I sit down on one of the chairs and after four hours, I take out my phone and I see eight missed calls and six text messages on my phone.
I checked the missed calls, four were from Ashton and Brian. Two from Emily and the other two from my mother.
The messages were in the same order as well.
I sent Ashton a message; I got to Glendale safe and I found someone that knows the address.
He started typing...are you sure you should trust a stranger?
I replied back.... I don't have a choice. Tell Brian that I'm good and you guys shouldn't worry anymore
He texted back..we will always worry.
I smiled at that statement and I brought up Emily's number and texted her too.. I won't be coming home for awhile. Make up an excuse to mom and dad. Love you!
I looked at the time and I groaned. Only twenty minutes had passed. I can't do this.
I go over to the counter, "If you come with me now, I will pay you your full salary this month. Closing early one day won't kill you." I offered.
After seconds of silence, "Deal!" She agreed and grabbed her purse.
We both got into my car and she first showed me the motel and then we drove down the street and saw a few small apartments and then she showed me the house I was looking for so I took my wallet out and gave her one of my credit cards while telling her what pin to use.
That lady was an angel.
I went back to the motel she showed me. It wasn't exactly five star but it was manageable for a few days.
The bed in my house was better and the air con didn't work properly.
My lord. The things we do for love.
I Dropped my bag on the bed, locked the door and left the small motel. I walked to the house with flowers on the outside and I knocked on the wooden door.
There was no response.
I knock on the door again and she opened the door.
"Its you..." Her voice whispered shakingly obviously surprised to see me.
"Can we talk for a bit?" I asked her and she nods her head and comes outside.
