Chapter 19

'''Chapter 19 '''

“Jada!” Caleb’s voice was strong and clear against the door.

“Who’s that?” Grandpa asked.

“My friends. They’re just like me.” I said in a whisper.

Grandpa nodded before going out of the living room and opening the door. “Hurry, go on inside.” I heard Grandpa say before I heard three pairs of legs walk in.

When I looked up, I saw Caleb’s look of worry and anger. Why was he angry?

Grandma sat beside me and started to pat my face, “They’re just worried about you like us.”

I nodded then stared at my friends, “Why are you guys here?”

Isleen spoke up with a yawn, “We’re here to accompany you to Cam Haf-Blood.”

“Will she be safe there? Will no one hurt her?” Grandma asked.

Caleb strode towards us and knelt in front of us, “I promise she’ll be safe with us Mrs. Oliver.”

Grandma nodded and rested a hand on his shoulder, “Keep her safe, promise me.”

“I do.”

“We all do.” Akio said, standing behind Caleb. Caleb stood and gingerly carried me bridal style.

“What are you doing?” I asked.

I heard a door open. I heard someone get inside and Caleb carefuly passed me on to Isleen’s strong and firm hands. Two more sound of people getting inside before three doors closed. I opened my eyes to see Isleen look outside, my head on her lap. That’s when I noticed Akio had my legs and placed them on his lap as well, Caleb was at the passenger’s seat and I could seem to see who was the driver. But they all seem to share the look of alertness in their eyes.
