I quickly pulled out... a golden bracelet.
‘ Did the person who sent this, really need to put it in so many layers of boxes? ‘ I wondered.
Not unless it wasn’t just a bracelet...
I had read enough of ‘ CYOC ‘ to know that gold bracelets rapped so thoroughly are not really ‘ normal ‘ bracelets.
Of course, all of that stuff was just pure fantasy, right? ... Right?
Anyway, maybe it was really valuable. Maybe it was some lost treasure from an old, old era of New England, or something.
Whatever it was, I didn’t have time to find out what it really was as I could hear my cellphone ringing.
Taking it out, I prayed that it wasn’t the police asking for me to come back to jail.
Even if it was, I might be able to make them let it slide...
“ Hello? “ I asked into the phone, have expecting the hear the Cernal’s voice yet again. But it wasn’t the Cernal.
Instead, the only sound from the other end, was the sound of voices in the background. Almost as if the person calling was listening in on something or someone, and wanted me to hear it.
Could it even be a wrong number?
‘ Creepy, ‘ I thought, as the person calling hung up.
My mind raced, trying to think of who might have just called me then answering with almost nothing.
Nobody came to mind, exect one person:
the mysterious being that had gotten me out of jail in the first place.
But still, who could it be? And why be secret about it?
Wait a minute.
Maybe whoever was behind this, was also the one who sent me this golden bracelet!
Well, like I like to say; “ I’m all for mysterys, if I can solve them in the end...”
