22. Hiding
It was 5:30 of morning. Scarlett was sleeping but someone put his or her hands on her shoulder. When she woke up, a completly black leaf from her shoulder fell. She felt that something was wrong and then the immediately passing of a black cat with red eyes verified this thing and the cat suddenly disappeared by reaching the window. Scarlett went towards the window and saw that Travis was going on his car. She saw the time and tried to chase her but she was late in going downstairs. At that time, Travis had already left. The security guards were not allowing her to go as Travis warned them. But Scarlett had a pepper spray so she sprinkled on their face.
She ran behind his car which has not been went much far. She felt that she was travelling the same route which she travelled with her father. Yes, to the tree house, maybe. Well! The car stopped and Travis came out and got disappeared. Scarlett move further to search him but was failed to find him. When she went a little far, just in the direction as the car was parked, she found that tree house, in fact, Miss Ensely's house. She felt a sudden connection of Travis with all this, the tree house and so on. But is it really? She sat in her car and unlocked it by the power of her eyes. It was now 8 a.m and still he was not back.
She was worried about him too. So, she went back home. She found Travis standing in her room. "Where have you been?" She asked. He replied, "May I get the answer of your own question? Where were you,Miss? Were you chasing me? And if, then why?"
Scarlett seemed to be a little nervous, "No, I was not..." he laughed and said that he is joking and told her all about what the guards informed him. She said in return, "I thought something else. But, if you don't mind, where did you go at that time?" In Scarlett's mind, the tree house was stucked but Travis was relaxed and kept on words on his mouth. "I am asking you something." She said.
"When such moment arrived that you got interested in me? Wherever I went, why does it mean to you so much?" He straightforwardly asked but this time, Scarlett lost her words and thought that it is a good chance to be friends as she was finding this chance for long. "I was just worried, not interested. You took care of me and I...could not do anything for you. I am sorry. I feel our friendship will be proved great for both of us and if you admit me your friend, tell me, where did you go?" Scarlett asked and was very resolute to get her answer. Travis replied, "Don't butter me, I am not a good bread (chuckled). Ok, so I went somewhere special"
But where? Can you guys tell me?
