C9 Almost found

“ This woman is really getting on my nerves. I wonder why Mum brought her to stay with us” He sighed. “ I think it’s because she’s her Mum” Ron said.

“ Grandma is so troublesome. She won’t even allow me move out of the house when I wanted to” He Looked at his phone which was ringing.

“ Hi Mum” He Answered the call. “ Where are you? Your Grandma just told me you and Ron tracked down Emily. Is that true?” She asked him. Harry was surprised that Grandma has already Questioned his Mum about it.

“ Yes” He answered. “ Wow that’s great. Make sure you find her. Don’t forget what I promised” She reminded him. “ I won’t forget, Mum” He smiled. “ We’ll talk later, Your grandma is coming” She Quickly Disconnected the call.

“ Emily, I’ll find you today” He dropped the phone beside him and rested his head backward smiling.

“ Emily, Let’s go already” Belle said to Emily who was inside the room contemplating if she should go with Belle or not. She came out of the room . “ I don’t think I can go” She said.

“ Why, you agreed to go with me” Belle was surprised. “ I’m scared. Harry might see me if I go outside” She said worriedly. “ Are you kidding me? If you stay at home, he would likely found you” She rolled her eyes.

“ What if we bumped to him on the way?” She asked and Belle sighed. “ Listen to me Emily, Harry will never see us outside. He won’t even go to the grocery shop. But if you stay here, he will come directly to the house and you know what’s next”

“ You are right” She nodded her head. “ All you have to do is to leave your phone at home” Belle said and Emily nodded her head. “ Wait for me” She went inside the room, put Jeff in the baby Carrier and carried her bag. She went out of the room Smiling.

“ Let’s go” She said. “ Alright, you should have let me carry him” Belle said and Emily smiled. “ Don’t worry”

They left the house Chattering on their way to the Bus stop. That was the first time Emily was going out ever since she went to the Town. The other day that she wanted to go with Belle for her Baby’s Shopping, Belle didn’t allow her to go.

“ This place is so beautiful” Emily said looking at the Town as they went to the shopping mall in the Taxi. “ Yep, wait till you see the Inside of the Town. It’s just a replica of the city. The only difference is the city is bigger” She explained.

“ Yes I see that”.

They arrived at the shopping mall. It was a very big one like the one Emily always shopped at back in the city. They shopped for Food items, some dresses, shoes, bags and Baby items. And just as they were about to leave the Mall with the things they bought, Emily’s eyes caught the women standing outside the mall.

“ Wait, isn’t that…” Belle turned around but didn’t find Emily there again. “ Where did she go?” She wanted to call her name and then the two women stepped in.

“ Isn’t this Belle?” Tina asked With a surprise. “ Hi Tina” She turned to Tina’s Mum. “ Hi mum, it has been long. How have you been?” Belle Smiled nervously.

“ We’ve been… Fine. What are you doing here?” She asked Belle. “ I came for shopping” She said and Step Mum nodded her head. “ Yes I know. I mean what you are doing in this town” She said.

“ Oh , this is where I lives now. It has been two years already. I work here” She concluded when she saw the confused look on her face. “ Good.” She said.

“ And where’s Emily?” Tina asked Her. “ Emily?” Belle was surprised. “ Isn’t she with you?” Step mum asked her. “ No… She isn’t with me” She said and They exchanged glances.

“ I thought she is working here. Didn’t she tell you where she’s working?” Tina asked again. “ It’s been long we spoke. I was about asking you about her” She said Surprisingly.

“ Mum, didn’t I told you Emily has followed a ma out of the city?” Tina Chuckled. “ Now I believe you. She lied to me that she got a job”

“ But didn’t you ask her where she was working when she moved out of the house?” Belle asked them. “ Why would I ask her, I’m even Glad she left the house for us” Tina said. “ Tina is right. She isn’t even my child, her Dad is dead so she can go do whatever she wants to do”

“ Oh, That” Belle sighed. She remembered those days she used to go see Emily in her house. Her step mum always made her work like a slave while Tina would sit in one place watching videos or hanging out with friends.

“ Anyways, it’s none of our Business wherever she is. Just tell her not to bother coming home because we won’t take her in” Step Mum said to Belle before they walked away. She watched as they entered the grocery store in the mall.

“ This is bad” She shook her head. “ And where’s that girl? I wonder where she went to. Maybe she saw them and…” Emily Hurried past her. “ Hey!” Belle followed her out of the Mall.

“ Quick, let’s leave here. Step mum Shouldn’t see me now” Emily said Worriedly. “ Alright” Belle stopped a taxi and they hoped in. “ Oh My God, what a relief” She heaved a sigh of relief.

“ Where did you went to?” Belle asked her. “ I saw them and hid somewhere. I prayed Jeff shouldn’t cry or I’ll be found. What did she said to you?” She asked Belle.
