The Town Plaza

Kyle

The man hands me over to Ewa and takes out a note, "Give that to your husband then. Tell him he has one day to respond."

Ella

I nod and put the note in my jeans pocket, holding Kyle close, "Alright."

Kyle

I hold onto Ewa tightly as the man walks away.

Ella

I look at Kyle when the man leaves and move some hair from his forehead, "You alright, buddy?"

Kyle

I nod and look at the puppy again, pointing to it.

Ella

I shake my head, "N-No. We're heading him, Ky."

Kyle

I frown and pout, "I wanna puppy."

Ella

I nod and sigh, "I know," I head him, "We'll bake cookies."

Kyle

I gasp excitedly, "Cookies!"

Ella

I nod and set him down once we get there.

Kyle

I walk to the kitchen and wait there, sitting in the middle of the floor.

Ella

I help him help me make the cookies before putting them in the oven.

Kyle

I look in the oven when she puts the cookies in, waiting for them to magically turn into food.

Ella

I chuckle and walk into the living room, taking out te note and reading it.

Everything you've been trying to run from is too consuming to hide. If you want Lucian to live, leave a black bag with the amount requested before in the park where you received this note. Otherwise, the child is ours and the kid dies.

Swallowing, I slip the note on the coffe table and bring Kyle on my lap, wanting Ian to come home already.

Kyle

Ewa picks me up and sits me on her lap. I sense her a little unnerved and lean against her, being a good boy.
