Jerry is kidnapped

Alana was sitting in her aunt’s penthouse. She spent some time going over her financial information and medicines. Aunt Solica was in good health for her age. Her financial situation was something most dreamed of. Uncle Jaco has been gone for several years. All missed him.

Alana bid Aunt Solica goodbye and said she’d back in a week or two. Alana walked down the block. She headed downtown where her black Infiniti was parked.

Anat finished her grocery deliveries for the elderly. Aunt Solica was not on today’s route. So the two enemies didn’t see each other. Anat went home and grabbed the small gift bag she was bringing to Jerry. She didn’t want to spoil him. She got him some fresh fruit and a toy truck.

She jogged down to the children’s shelter. She saw police cars nearby. That didn’t faze her. The NYPD was always nearby. A lot of crazy parents came by and caused trouble. She walked in and saw Anne crying while talking to two officers. Other personnel was crying. An onsite physician was treating a staff member who was assaulted.

Anne yelled out to Anat, “Jerry’s been kidnapped. Her parents came in higher than a kite and took him. His mom had a huge knife and went after Joe, security guard.” One of the officers in the facility remembered Anat from when she called 911 to save Jerry.

Tears fell down her eyes. She asked what the parents looked like. One of the center’s security guards quickly showed her the footage on the security camera. He said we saw them running downtown. The police told Anat to stay calm. That was not in her DNA. She left the gift bag on the floor and told them to give it to another kid.

She raced out. She saw other officers searching for Jerry and his parents. She heard faint screams. She raced like a marathon runner. Remember the streets were pretty empty as the Covid-19 virus still had the city by its balls.

As Anat got closer she saw Jerry’s mom. Then she looked again. She looked for the kid. But she opened her eyes wider than ever. She saw wine splattering all over Jerry’s mother. She saw huge apples flying by. She never in her life thought she’d be thankful to see Alana. She heard Alana yell, “Do not hurt that kid. I have no idea who you, the dirtbag you were with or the kid is. But I will make sure he’s safe. After I take you down.” Your friend is next. He can only run so far. He will be found.”

The mom tried to throw rocks and broken beer bottles at Alana. She hit her a few times.

This only fired Alana up more.

Anat wasn’t sure what to do. She knew she wanted to take out Jerry’s mom. But more than anything she wanted to find him. She figured he was with his dad. She prayed he was ok. She saw his mom falling. Happy as she was, she needed Alana to stop. She needed the mom alive. She still remembered the beating Alana and Marc gave her. That beating changed her life. She dialed 911.
