26. "Shadow".
-Wait, are you saying that the group teaches newcomers with us?
-Yeah,-she nodded vigorously.
"They have a good company, I thought to myself - all except Lila, she still a bitch"
Sam flashed back some guy from school it was wearing a black sweatshirt and dark jeans.
"Alex", flashed through my head. I caught up with touched his shoulder, turning man frowned.
What? He asked.
-Sorry, obaznalas, for a second-I thought it was Skeyd, but I just thought ...
When I came back to his seat, Sam start to discuss something violently, but I did not listen ee.Ya still thinking about it ...
"How strange that I have not seen him since the night we were on the beach, where is he? If it is nearby, then threatens Do I risk? Whether to me? And is there a chance that Justin arranged for me to be guarded? "-I froze thinking.
Hey, are you even listening to me?-Samantha flipped the finger at my eye level.
-Yes, I'm sorry-I shook my head, driving too many questions.
Yeah, what's with you, in general, happens, you not myself lately ...
-I'm sorry, very much .. just came over and I'll tell you honestly, but the only other time.
-Well-girlfriend hugged me, as soon as you're ready. I smiled at her words.
There was a big change and as soon as the bell rang, I came out ahead of everyone in the class.
I started this paranoia. It seemed to me that I was always someone watching ..
Running out into the street I took the phone and dialed Dzhastina.Mne just had to talk to him.
Leaning back against the wall, waited walked beeps, he did not pick up ...
16.17,-began to count ... I must now turn voicemail, his eyes closed, holding her breath.
Yes? - Resounded in the tube.
-Oh, thank God!
Sky, something happened?-He sounded worried.
-Uh, no, just ... you asked a friend to look after me? I do not feel safe the last few hours, I'm sorry but ...
-Shhh
What What is wrong?
Do not talk about it, we can eavesdrop ... Communicate better sms, I is not much I can help you, especially now thousands of miles away from you. All your support is the one I have left to look after you. My friend will contact you soon, but until he takes a back seat to not attract too much attention ...
-Well, only sms-I took a deep breath.
Sky, I try to come as soon as possible, in my edges rumors about something, you're in danger, be careful, miss, he threw the challenge.
In danger? I stared at the phone screen extinct.
When the lessons of the past, I immediately went home. Sam insisted on going to the store, but I refused, I was scared.
As soon as I crossed the threshold of the house, my father took me by the arm and led him into the street:
Today, we go shopping! Solemnly he said.
I'm tired, no, honestly ... but he leaves the forest and wants to spend more time with me.
-All right, Dad, where we're going?-I cheered.
-In "Pacal" he replied.
In response, I smiled.
Father ordered a taxi and 15 minutes later we were already in place.
-I need to buy some things for the next trip, and you still can go to a cafe or a store that you want.
-And, yes, here's a small gift from me, he put me in the hands of a small size box and smacking my forehead disappeared into the store with chemistry.
I was curious what kind of gift he prepared me.
Neatly parted box, I looked at its contents.
My eyes sparkled with joy and a smile on his face has spread.
Thank you, I said joyfully.
Inside the velvet pouch lying credit card, it was of silver plastic, which meant only one thing-she wore a tidy sum.
"This is a very expensive gift for you - I again spoke with soboy.-You should be happy, he wanted you to have always at hand the money, it's because it is not there for very long, it just does not want you to needed anything. "Yes, it really was, I agreed with the version that offered my mind.
Well, good. In my mind I figured that out of clothes and toilet articles I need to buy.
In a clothing store, I opted for a pair of light blouses, summer dress and sandals.
When the amount deducted from the card, and things spread out on branded bags I decided that I would not eat badly and went into a small cafe.
-I, please, your brand cake and tea-I said the approaching me ofitsiantke.Ona order recorded in a notebook and left.
In my pocket vibrated
Sms.
Unfamiliar number: I had been warned, do not worry, I'm guarding you, so asked the hunter.
I wrote in response: How do I find you?
Unfamiliar number: Can we meet?
ME: Well, where and how much?
Unfamiliar number: Café at Walt-faire in 7hours?
ME: Well, I recognize you?
Unfamiliar number: I'll be in the black, in the farthest corner of the cafe, to meet ...
On the wall clock cafe was 18:10, I have almost an hour to spare.
Appetite was gone, I drank only tea and paid off, slipped out of the cafe.
Pape?, Quickly-I said into the phone my cell phone.
Yes, daughter?
-I urgently need to meet with Sam in a cafe on the other side of town, you could not take my bags and take them home?
-Well, just do not stay up late.
God, how I hated myself, I had to lie to him ...
But I had to learn!
We met up with my dad about them exit the mall, I handed him packages, thanked for the perfect gift and smacking cheek poproschalas.On insisted that I ordered a taxi and, in general, then, I did just that.
Walt-faire is a vintage street, which is in the most remote part of the city.
When the city flourished, she was one of the most frequently visited, but came to power the new mayor and began to rebuild the city, the street forgot about this.
Now everyone knows this place like home thieves, vagabonds, criminals and the old district of cafes.
I had a strange feeling. As soon as I set up an appointment at this place on my skin shiver went over ...
Looking out of the taxi window, I realized that we drove for almost half way, get the phone, I wrote to Justin:
-How are you? Miss.
The answer came almost 5 minutes.
-All right, how are you? contacted the "shadow"? possible back in a couple days, miss you too.
PSEdu through the mountains may not be due for some time, do not lose me.
-Well, I'm going to meet with your friend, he wrote to me and asked to meet, write later.
By clicking "submit", I looked out the window and found that we are almost there. Through three quarters of the car stopped at the only cafe on Walt-faire.
-Thank you-I thanked the taxi driver gave him a tip.
When the car disappeared around the bend, I looked at the building.
Orange paint is faded and peeled, sign "Marlene" hung on three nails, one edge of the wooden porch and went rotten in the ground.
Deep breath, I stepped inside.
Bell poured around the room, letting the arrival of a new visitor.
Inside the building looked a little better. On the walls there was a new light gray kraska.Derevyannye tables were washed clean, even the curtains were in good condition except for a couple of greasy prints that adorn them.
Played muffled music.
The cafe smelled of alcohol and fried potatoes.
Visitors were scurrying here mnogo.Tuda busty middle-aged woman dressed in a greasy apron and old, already pozheletvshie bonnets that once were considered white. They laughed leaping carelessly throwing sharp jokes men, and after carrying out the kitchen discussing something with each other.
At this time, the pendant around his neck grew cold, as if turned into a piece of ice.
Previously never happened, I felt the approach of something, but could not determine what exactly ...
Carefully looking around, I saw a man dressed in black, he sat at the farthest table in the corner.
His face was hidden black shlyapa.On was wearing a dark sweater and dark jeans ... on the table beside him lay the phone.
"That's exactly it, I thought to myself - and briskly walked towards him."
Stone on the neck became even colder from what I held my breath.
Once a table near my "bodyguard" I sat on a chair, which was located across from him.
"Now I just safe," I thought joyfully.
He slowly raised his head, holding the pads of thumb and index finger edge shlyapy.Ego eyes met mine, and her lips broke into a smile.
My eyes widened in surprise, I was literally frozen to the chair unable to move.
I felt shivers run through the body.
Finally returned to me speechless.
-You're-... I still could not believe what was happening.
-I, - Alex glared angrily transparent gray eyes.
I was blown off his chair, hoping to escape.
But two heavy hands fell on my shoulders, not letting me get up and even move.
All-out of the cafe! - Someone shouted behind me, and all visitors, leaving us left the premises.
-So, so, who do we have here - to our table, a guy came up, it really is-girlfriend Jeri-Clay ran an index finger to my chin.
I turned my face away from him.
Do not you touch me, evil-I hissed through clenched teeth.
-A what? Jer far, and no one will be on your defense, bitch ...
-Bastard - I quit.
Palm Klaya fallen right on my lips.
I felt the salty taste in the mouth, spitting.
-Hold your tongue - he leaned over to my ear - I'm not your boyfriend, you will not stand on ceremony, chick.
-Skeyd-he nodded toward Alex-hold - threw him into the hands of a gun.
He deftly caught it, and brought the sight of me.
-Great job, man - Clay Alex patted on the shoulder and said something incomprehensible yazyke.Posle before exiting, and these two guys that kept me tied my hands and legs to the chair. One of them stayed, and where the second-then left.
-I believe you, and you? You just used me, how cute, and now waiting for the right moment to kill me, that's where our friendship is yes, Skeyd?-I cried all the cafes.
