Chap#4: Finding December

As soon as I had reached my resolution, I quickly reached the police station to reel in the fresh and new discovery I had just made. Rushing towards the door, I told Adam that I was going to out to the police station. Then, I turned my hand over the cold door knob and rushed over to unlock my car.

————————————————————

"I know it sounds stupid but trust me it's the only possible solution" I tried to rationally explain to the officers who clearly looked at me as if I were some kind of lunatic.

"So how do you expect us to find this 'December' of yours? And what would we say to the security guards standing guard near the perimeter of the beach... that we're looking for 'December'!?" All of a sudden, all the officers joined together to laugh. I must admit, it did sound very silly and stupid but it is the only possible answer. It was slightly frustrating that they mad fun of me even though they did nothing themselves!

So after humiliating myself in front of all the officers,I decided to go to the Boston Bay by myself to look around and try to find 'December'. As I was heading towards the place, I decided to call my assistant, Adam Wilson.

"Hello Adam..."

"Ma'am I'm sorry he left early"; instead of Adam's voice I heard my nursing assistant, Narcissa's voice.

"He left?" I was so confused. Why did he leave without telling me?

"Well ma'am he said that he wasn't feeling well about an hour ago so he left. Then about 5 minutes ago I recieved a call from his wife saying that his condition was getting pretty serious so he was taken to the hospital and got diagnosed by leukaemia"

"All of a sudden?"; it was so unbelievable, he was alright when I had left. So what happened?

"Yes. His wife said that he might not be in for about a month" I sighed. I was already having a bad enough day and now this...

"Okay, could you try to look for someone to replace him while he's still recovering?"

"Should I contact your batch fellow, Mr.Jeremy Lanyon?"

"Yes, please"

Great, another problem up my sleeve. I tried to shove the thought off of my head and focus on what was more important; finding 'December'.

Just as I decided to move further my phone buzzed:

"Why don't you stop by for a drink? I hear that the restaurant here has some cool beverages.

-anonymous.                                                      "

I looked around; maybe this was a hint? But it could be a trap too. It was just odd how this anonymous person was able to reach out to me while I had no idea where this person was.

As I walked up from near the vacated benches and families having picnics, I saw something that made me glee. "The December restaurant!". It was the shop that the person was talking about and it was also the restaurant that I used to loved so much though I never knew why they named it that.

As soon as I had realised that this was my December, I decided to call in the police station and shove my piece of information up their snubby noses so that they come on over to take a look.. and maybe even apologise for making fun of me.
