OBSESSED

SEASON 2, EPISODE 4

“Oh my God! Dess where have you been? I’ve been trying to reach you. What the hell happened?” she was in awe
“Jade darling. They kidnapped me. I just managed to escape now. I’m using a service line to contact you. I’ve been really devastated. Why didn’t you try looking for me?”
“I did Dess. I tried tracking your phone but it was untraceable, it seemed they switched it off or something. I went to your house but it was empty. I didn’t even find your mum there”
“I called my mum to run away. She’s currently elsewhere safe”
“Who are these people and why are they after you and your mum?”
“I’ll tell you everything when we meet”
“Where are you so i can come pick you up”
“I don’t know. Everywhere is devastated. They blindfolded me and took me to a building close to where I am now. Even the station I am now is devoid of a soul. I’m scared and they might come looking for me anytime soon. Please help me.”
“Is there any way I can track this phone and know your location?”
“No…”
“Oh yeah you said it was a service line. Try looking for a sign board or something so I can trace you.”
“Okay. But I just pray they don’t get to me before then".
“I’ll go to the police now. I’ll go report, I’ll find you soon don’t worry.” Jade assured her, and took a turn back towards the road leading to a police station.
“Call me as soon as you find a clue of wherever you are”
“Okay”
Beep. The call ended as Jade drove down the road. She needed to save Dess as fast as she could. It could be that the persons after them be responsible for whatever she faced at the moment.

She got to the police station and reported as soon as she met an officer
“why wasn’t this case reported when she went missing initially?”
“I was confused, I thought she had travelled or something that maybe where she was didn’t have reception”
“You said she called you?”
“Yeah”
With which contact?“
“This” she opened her call log and showed the strange number to him
The officer wrote down the number and dialed it
“It is a service line”
“Yeah”
“Then we’ll have to track the location of the service line”
“I thought it can’t be tracked”
“It can. Not for androids or IOS. The hacker system we have can track it. You can go, we’ll take it from here”
“Thank you very much officer”
“You’re welcome”
Jade left and drove in her car away. She thought of waiting for news from Dess or better still confront her about knowing of any document that could mean a lot but she decided against it. Something in her pronged her to go check the house…
As much as she wanted to go, she also wanted to hear news from Dess first…

Lizzy came down from the school bus and walked down from the bus stop. She had loosed weight since the stress of going to school from the hospital. She had received a few gifts and visits from her mates including Fred.
Fred had been nice since he heard about Lizzy’s mum and he had come often to the hospital to visit, bringing flowers and food each time. Fred’s mum had even come to visit some days ago.
At school, she did her best to meet up her grade because it seemed she was all by herself. Jade had little or no time for her, although she tried to understand, she felt dejected and alone. After experiencing the mystery of a strange doctor coming to sedate her mother, who wouldn’t be scared?
On hearing about the condition her mother was, she became even more delusional, day dreaming and having night mares of the mysterious doctor strangling her and her mother to death.
One time, she had fainted in class and was revived by the school’s first aid. When she was told to call her parents or relative, she refused to give out her sister’s contact, Jade was so busy as not to care about her anyways.
So it has been like that; go to school, stare at a particular space, come back, receive gifts and sleep at the hospital looking at her mother from the theatre. She wanted her mum back, she wished she could trade places with her mother still.
Lizzy didn’t want to leave her mother so didn’t bother going to Jade’s.
Jade on the other hand felt no need of going to the hospital. She knew whoever wanted her, must and should not be in contact with her mother and going to visit her mother would drag the attention of whoever was behind everything. Yes, she was concerned about Lizzy but whenever she thought of calling her, something else will take her thoughts away and she would eventually forget about her need to call Lizzy.

As Lizzy walked up into the hospital, she fainted just in front of the reception. Nurses rushed her into a ward and tried to revive her back. She was in a critical condition but they managed to handle it.

“are you a relative to her the patient?” a doctor asked Fred
“ye.. yeah.. I’m a friend. How’s she doing? Is she okay? Any fracture? Any dislocation? Tell me please” Fred behaved as if he was a father to Lizzy as he panicked, breathing hard, sweats were seen all over his face
“I would like to speak to a closer relative, I’m sorry”
“is her condition that bad? I don’t know but her mother is admitted here.. let me check her phone” he rushed down to her belongings and checked for her phone. Luckily, it wasn’t locked so he opened the phone and searched for any name that could be stored with a clue name which could indicate a relative or something “babe” he saw the name written with two hearts to it, so he dialed the number but it rang in his pocket. She had stored his name with babe as if they were lovers…
He blushed and hung up. He felt like a king, how could a very pretty girl of her nature be attracted to him? After all this was a step closer to asking her out. It has been his dream to ask her out be he always found himself initiating stupid conversations that he really wanted to add the topic of “be my girlfriend” to but he was damn shy!

He scrolled down a bit more and saw “Jade sis” with a red heart too. He dialed it and it went through. It rang for some minutes before it was picked.

“kiddo” a feminine voice said from the other end
“this is Fred, a friend to Lizzy calling on behalf of her. Your sister is admitted here at Houston’s hospital where you mum is. We need your attention”
“oh my God! LIZZY!” she shouted from the other side of the call and hung up.
