THE PROGRAMMERS

Chapter 3 | Joey

JOEY

When I got out of bed, my neck was still hurting. But it was worth finding my sister. My alarm clock read 10:00 am. I got out of bed, took a quick shower and put a red blouse on and some black slacks. I was working in my office today to track down Jada.

"Find something?" I asked Micheal and James. They were the 2 people that encouraged me to find my sister. Micheal looked frustrated. "No. All we found under your mom's-"

"She's not my mom." I snapped. I knew she was, but I didn't like calling her that. "Continue." I said "All we found was a Patterson. No sign of a Jada." Then James spoke up.

"Maybe it's a code name." he said.

"Code name." I mumbled. "Code name!" I mumbled again.

Jada set up a code name for her so she wouldn't be found.

God, she was so smart.

And definitely my sister.

"Track her down." I said to James. I said this because I wanted to make sure that she was home, or somewhere else. James looked surprise. "She's on her way to Kathy's and Cargo's."

JADA

When I got to the gate of Kathy and Cargo's home, I opened it and knocked. No response. "Hello?" I said creaking open the door. "Hi." a voice said. This voice wasn't any voice, it was a voice I've heard before. "Who's there?" I asked worried. I know the voice sounded famililar, but I couldn't catch on.

"It's me." it said.

Stephon.

"What are you doing here?" I asked. He paused for a moment. "I"m here to take you to my mother. You are coming with me." Who was his mother? Then, I flashed back to what he told me on the bus. He was trying to get away from his mother. I knew it. He used me. His mother runs this whole city.

"G-g-get away from me." I studderd.

"I'm sorry." he cried. He rans towards me, I let out a scream. But suddenly, everything went black.

JOEY

I was pacing back and forth in my office worried that Micheal and James haven't found Jada yet. But suddenly, my phone rang. Thank God I thought. It was Micheal and James. They told me that they got Jada and they are on their way back to the office. I told them thanks, and straightend my office up.

~~~

A few minutes later, Micheal and James arrived with Jada. "Get off of me!" I heard her yell down the hall. I ran down and escorted her to my office. When I took a glance at her, I noticed, we looked just a like. She turned out to be bautiful. Her light brown curly hair was tied up in a messy bun, she was about 5'3, but I thought that was a good height for a 14 year old. She had on cream leggings, along with a long orange silk top, along with tan tall uggs. I had that shirt when 14.

"Hello." I said in my most professional voice. She looked up at me, and I could see hurt in our light brown eyes. "Hi." She croaked. She sounded like she has been crying, and that tore my heart into a million pieces. I got myself together and said, "My name is Joey, and I will be your protector."
