Chapter 4 Reunion
“698 isnt your number, she gave you her card!!” Dylan ran his hands through his hair. I put the card back in my pocket and wiped my eyes. “she must’ve switched them when we hugged.”
*Ding* the elevator arrived at the 1st floor. We walked out and to our left up stood Mr. Crenshaw. “Warren! How nice to see you! We must catch up sometime!!” I didn’t look at him, I just nodded my head. Dylan led me over to a table in the corner of the food court. There sat Justin and another Man. The man didn’t notice us approach because he was busy talking to Justin. As we arrived at the table Justin got us “Warren, Dylan welcome! Dylan you know this man, lets see if Warren can guess. I looked at him, he looked at me. His eyes opened and his jaw dropped and he quickly covered it with his hand. I raised my eyebrow.
“Wait a second, open your mouth again.” The man did. He had 2 missing mullers on the right side of his mouth. Then I noticed he had a scar down the right side of his face. “it- it – it can’t be!” my mind was racing he got up and I ran towards him. “Isaac!! How is this possible?” he smiled and patted me on my shoulder. “oh man, I didn’t realize it was you until they kept saying Warren. Only my brother would want to be called by his last name instead of his first!!” I was filled with so much joy I hugged him. “Isaac, I- I didn’t think you would be chosen!” he frowned at me, then laughed. “oh Helios, I thought that too! It turns out my beatings actually benefitted me! They said that I was already battle Hardened, so they took me to the Vault and they had me train under extreme conditions and I just got done last week!” I shook my head in surprise “ wait Monday last week around 1400hrs?” he looked at me funny
“Yeah how did you know?” Dylan and Justin Looked at each other and then Dylan broke the silence “That Breeze!! When you opened the vault after 10 years it released a major wind gust that blew through the entire ship!” I just stood there blankly.
“Warren? HELLO?” Dylan was waving his hand in front of my face. I then snapped back into reality. “wow when they said everything happens for a reason they ment it” Isaac looked confused, Dylan filled him in. ‘Warren had his card taped to his roof and it blew off and he found out 698 was not his-“ I smacked him upside the head. He rubbed it “right, I’ll shut up now”
“698 wasn’t what?” Justin asked. “Nothing never mind he said that, lets just order food or something.” I said as I sat down trying to change the subject.
Later that night, I sat at my table, flipping my card in my hand. I was thinking about Isaac. About how different he was. About how that our dad beat him and not me how he was the one sent away to Massachusetts, about how he was sent to the vault for 10 years and about how all that added up to me discovering that I had it worse than him by not having my number read. Now the feelings of guilt tripled. I started to feel light headed, like I need to rest. What I really needed was a distraction.
