Goddess assassin BOOK ONE

Sunday morning, a few friends were sitting out on the lawn and having brunch. "The woods are not an easy place to be," said Sam. Henry replied, "What a difficult thing it can be." "I used to be in the army, and we have gone through it." "Ron is going to meet his son Cavil on his birthday," said Peter. "What's new in that, he goes to meet his son every Sunday," replied Henry. Pamela entered and said, "Stop complaining, Henry." Henry said, "Will you let me talk?" "You are going to eat that, or I should clear the table," said Pamela. "We're all done," Henry and the others declared.

Pamela, take the plates. Henry and Peter were helping her with dishes in the kitchen. While cleaning the dishes, Peter said, "Do you know Ron is getting a divorce and he wants his son to be with him?" Meanwhile, Henry takes a beer out of the fridge and says, "I know he does not have to do so, but his wife is not so cool." Peter said, "Anyway, we should leave this to him, and I should be going." "Martha is waiting for me at home." After the brunch was over, everybody left the house. Henry and Pamela were by themselves. Henry said, "Ron is a poor guy." "He has gone through a lot of things, and now he is fighting for his son's custody." Pamela said, "Mikela was a good girl when we were in college, but things got worse when Ron and Mikela married." At first, Ron was not able to give her time because of his tight schedule. "Yes, you are right, and after his promotion, he became the CEO of his company, but that made differences between them," said Henry. "I think you have had a lot of beer." You should probably go to sleep. "I will do the rest," said Pamela.

Monday morning Henry called Ron and said, "Will you come to my place in the evening?" Ron said, "I am taking a cab to Mikela's house to meet my son Cavil, and I am caught up in that." I will meet you some other day." Henry said, "Okay, no issues; we will work it out." "You carry on," he says and cuts the call. On the other side, Ron was in a taxi to go to Mikala's house. On reaching the door, Ron rang the bell, and Cavil opened the door. "How are you, son?" Ron inquired. Cavil replied, "Hey dad, I am good." "Where is your mother?" asked Ron. Cavil said, "She is out with her friends, and I am all alone." Ron inquired, "How have you been this week?" Cavil said, "I do not like it here, dad." "Please take me with you." Ron said, "Son, it will be a few more days." "I have appointed an attorney for your custody." Cavil said, "Just do it fast; I cannot take it anymore." "She brings friends with her, and I do not like the sight of that." Ron said, "I know, son, but laws are laws, and I will take you with me in just a few more months." "Still a few months. What are you doing, dad?" "I hate you; you're not taking this whole ordeal seriously," Cavil responds. And he goes back into his room, slams the door, and says, "Go back; I do not want to talk to you; I will figure it out on my own." After this, Ron takes his leave, Cavil is all by himself in the house, and Mikela is out with her friends.

Cavil calls his friend Cris and asks him for his bike. Cris said, "Come to my house in the evening, and I will give you the keys." Cavil says "ok" and cuts the call. In the evening, Cavil packs his bag, takes some money that he saved, and goes to Cris's house. He called Cris, "I am outside of your house; come down and give me the keys." Cris says, "Wait, I am coming." Do you want to eat something?” he asked. Cavil says, "Just come down real quick." "I have to go someplace." Cris says, "Okay," and cuts the call. Cris came down, and they both shook hands, and Cris said, "Where are you going?" Cavil said, "Just going out with a few friends." I will return your bike in a few days if that is fine. What are you up to, asks Cris. "I am sensing something fishy here." Cavil replied, "There is nothing fishy." "I'm going to my brother's house in the country and need your bike; can you lend it to me or will you make me take the train?" Cris said, "I am just kidding here." "Have the keys and try not to harm yourself." Cavil said, "Do not be smart; I can take care of myself," and left.

After riding the bike for 20 miles in the south, Cavil's bike tire deflated, and he was on the road in the middle of a forest, where he was alone. He tried to call his friend Cris, but his connectivity was poor. He was standing near his bike when a car passed by; he asked for help, but the car didn't stop. As was obvious, in a stranded location, who would stop the car for a teenager? People have a negative perception of places like this. Cavil, all alone, took out his cell phone, switched on the flashlight, left the bike behind the bushes, and started to walk toward the nearest town.

On the other hand, Mikela returned home late at night. She looked for Cavil in the whole house. But he was not there, so she called Ron. Mikela on the phone started shouting at Ron. She said, "Where in hell is my son?" "You came in the morning; what did you do with him?" Ron said, "Calm down, Why are you shouting? " "I can listen to you without shouting." She said, "Where is my son?" He said, "I do not know; I left in the morning; he was a bit upset, and then I left." Mikela said, "You better get me my son or I am calling the cops." He said. "Wait, let me ask his friend Cris, and then I will call you as soon as I get to know his whereabouts." She says, "You better find my son," and cuts the call.

Ron called Cris, The phone rang, and Cris answered, " Cris answered, "Hello, uncle, how are you? " "How come you called me in the middle of the night?" "Son, do you know where Cavil is?" "He isn't at his mother's house," Ron said. "Does he accompany you?" Cris replied, "Uncle, he came in the evening and took my bike and said he was going to meet his brother in the countryside." Ron said, "Did he tell you which brother he was visiting?" "Uncle "He didn't say much, and he was in a hurry," Cris said. Ron says, "Okay," and cuts the call.
