My Dad Turns Out to be Eyes

34

A sense of relief was felt by everyone in the room shortly after they could hear Robert's voice again.

"I managed to get in, my body fit inside here, although it's a bit crowded. I don't think I need a diet." Robert said casually. He did not know how tense the people in the room were because he thought he would not have time.

"I don't think you'll be able to do it" Nathan replied. He then turned to look at the petrified-looking Jessica while his hand was still on Nathan's arm, holding the young man's arm tightly.

"Are you okay?" Nathan whispers to Jessica so that Robert can't hear her words.

"Yes," Jessica replied waking up from her daydream. "I... just ... well .. it's kind of stressful."

"Yes, I agree" Nathan replied again chuckling at Jessica. Nathan then goes back to talking to Robert "Yes, now you have to keep going until you get to the station. I'll help from here."

"I see," Robert agreed and Jessica now slowly removed her hand from the soft material of the cardigan Nathan was wearing.

Jessica now stands still in her position and continues to pay attention to the CCTV image where her father is.

"I've arrived!" robert said after opening one of the doors that now shows the crowd of people in the subway station. But he frowned when he saw the state of the crowded station. "What the fuck?" his gerrick.

"Well, welcome to the rush hour at the train station. It's working hours and people are going to walk around there. And this is a problem that I'm sure you don't know how to solve either" Nathan said.

Jessica saw her father's face on the screen through CCTV images. His father now seems to be crammed with the people at the station, trying his best to figure out where Dimitri is.

"I can't see anything here. Can you look for him?" Robert asked.

"Yes, I'm looking" Nathan said as he tried to find Dimitri. And that's when the next train starts getting ready to go.

Robert hurried up the carriage. Jessica tried to help by looking for a sign of something she thought would look suspicious on the screen in front of her.

"Nathan, the train is leaving. Do I have to stay on the train or get off now?" Robert asked in an impatient tone. He exited the train car staring across the station, hoping to find Dimitri.

"Give me a minute" Nathan said, focusing his gaze on one camera angle and zooming in on the part. Nathan replayed the footage in the video.

"Robert! Come backin. He got on that train." Nathan said.

"What?" ask Robert again.

"I SAID GET ON THE TRAIN!!" his yell.

Nathan repeated his sentence in a loud voice and made Robert groan before he finally ran after the carriage that was currently starting to walk.

Jessica kept watching the CCTV footage and was able to see when the father jumped into the last carriage. Jessica's mouth is open. He had to admit that the scene he had just seen felt quite impressive.

It's like a scene in a movie... Jessica stared in disbelief.

"Dimitri was posing as a cop" Nathan told Robert. "Can you see it?"

"I was looking" said Robert after he got on the train. "I'm sure he's intending to go after Marie. I need you to warn Edward or any agent to take Marie to a safer place."

"Will I do," Nathan nodded according and Jessica fell silent before she heard a crackling sound from the speakers.

Jessica and Nathan looked at each other for a few seconds and they wondered what had just happened before the phone line disconnected.

"Dad," cried Jessica loudly, trying to call her father. "Dad! Can you answer me."

"His phone connection was cut off" Nathan told Jessica "Ck, no doubt, he must have done something stupid."

"Can you keep following him or find out his position?" Jessica wondered to Nathan. "I mean, he's in the train and-"

"I can only follow where there are cameras" Nathan said, focusing on his phone. Nathan now intends to send Robert a message to her to order Edward to take Marie to a safer place.

Jessica and Nathan then choose to spend their time watching the last CCTV footage before Robert disappears from view on the screen. And after that there was nothing else they could do but sit around waiting.
