Chapter 107 - Taking A Child Home

The child in her lap stirred, she blinks her eyes and looks at Morgana. The child sat up seeing a beautiful woman inside the car with her, she looks around and turns back to Morgana again upon realizing that her mother and father are not with them in the car.

Niña:Quien eres tu? ( Who are you? ) donde esta mi mama y papa? ( where are my mom and dad? ) she questioned Morgana as she blinks back the tears in her eyes.

Niña..... Soy... tia Miranda, Tu mama y tu papa no estan aqui. ( Niña I'm aunt Miranda your mom and dad is not here. Morgana replied to Niña and tried to comfort the child.

ves que me pidieron que cuidara de ti ( you see they asked me to take care of you ). Hay chicos malos (there are bad guys) quien vino a tu casa ( who came to your house) y mato a tu tio. ( and killed your uncle.)

Niña: Pero porque??? Donde estan mis padres? ( but why??? where is my parents???)

Morgana: Yo no se, ( I don't know ) ellas solo me llamaron ( they only called me ) para venir y llevarte lejos conmigo ( to come and take you away with me.

Niña cried upon learning that her parents were still in their house. She was afraid that something bad might happen to them.

Morgana: sssshhhh para de llorar todo estara bien ( sssshhhh stop crying everything will be okay) Morgana crooned as she tried to comfort the grieving child.

Upon reaching the border Morgana showed her fake passport and i.d and the car registration records to the man in military uniform, the man look at her face comparing it to the pictures on the passport and i.d. After that, he peeks inside the car. Then he let them pass.

Morgana: whew.... good thing I had a system... Morgana whispered.

The child fell asleep again from crying. Morgana keeps driving the car as the child sleep. They had a long journey ahead of them. They were now traveling California and still a long drive back to Brooklyn, NY. She can't afford to travel by air.

She's not sure if no one will recognize the child if she did. After all, the child is the only daughter of a big-time drug and gun dealer in Tijuana.

After a few more hours of driving, Morgana pulled over in front of a restaurant, she wakes the child and carry her to the restaurant with her to eat.

When they are done eating Morgana check the time in her phone. The time in California and New York are different, it's almost 3 in the afternoon California. In New York, it's almost 8 in the evening.

She's been awake for more than 24 hours, she woke up early in Tijuana and there are more than 15 or 16 hours time gap in Tijuana and California.

Her body is already tired from driving and all the fights she did earlier. Although she didn't fight literally, thinking and doing all the things she did to execute her plan consumes so much of her energy.

Besides, her eyelids felt heavy from lack of sleep so she decided to find a hotel for them to stay and spend the night. though it is still early to sleep. She needed to relax her body and her muscle before continuing to travel back home tomorrow.

She stops by a department store to buy clothes for the child, before she looks for a hotel.
