As my voice was too loud, it attracted the attention of the neighbors. Noticing them opening the door to take a look, I quickly led Sabrina into the living room and closed the main door behind me. “What exactly happened, Sabby? Stop crying. I’m going to pass out from the panic!”
After hearing my questions, Sabrina immediately burst out crying. It was weird because I had never seen her being so helpless before. “Something terrible happened to Zach and the others when they were on a mission at the border. After getting shot, t-they went missing!”
“Missing?” I staggered back and asked, “What do you mean that they’re ‘missing’? How could two people disappear in broad daylight?”
“It’s true!” Sabrina wept while carrying her child. “I just got the news from Sean. He initially wanted to ask about my situation. However, he accidentally let it slip that Zach and the others were involved in a shooting incident and went missing! What should I do? Eve, I’m so worried. My baby is still so young, too! W-What if-”
“T-There’s no way that will happen!” I screamed and cut her off. Then, I tried to console myself, “It’s impossible! Chris and I haven’t even gotten a chance to hold a wedding yet, and I didn’t manage to see him off, either. Therefore, there’s no way he could leave me just like that. Don’t jump to conclusions, I’m telling you!”
At that, Sabrina stopped crying and looked at me hopefully. “Eve, you have a way around it, am I right? Go on and inform Darius and the others about it. Since they’re so powerful, they’ll definitely have ways to find them.”
“You’re right. I’m going to find Darius, so stay right here. If there’s anything, I will call you. N-No! Nothing will happen. I’m sure of it.” However, when I turned around to leave, I accidentally bumped into the wall in my hastiness. Although I tried hard to calm myself down, I had to try a few times to unlock the doors with my trembling hands.
“You must ensure that they come home safely, Eve. I only have you to rely on,” Sabrina begged while holding onto her baby.
