and
nervous all at the same time. He knew this was the moment he’d been waiting for
his whole life. He knew that he and Rachel would fall madly in love and be
together forever.
    He knocked again, knowing that it
would anger the voice behind the door but he didn’t care. He had to get inside.
    “Did you hear me? I said hold on
a second!”
    “Let me in!” Rob screamed. “I
have to see Rachel!”
    Suddenly the door swung open and
Rob stood there looking at Rachel’s father who looked back at him angrily.
    “What do you want?” he asked.
    “I need to see your daughter!”
Rob answered.
    “Well, she’s not here now. I’m
sorry,” her father answered.
    “What do you mean she’s not here.
I don’t believe you. I know she’s here!” Rob said, looking inside the house.
    “She’s not here. Please leave
now,” her father said coldly.
    Rob couldn’t just leave. He
quickly ran inside and started yelling for Rachel.
    “Rachel! Rachel!”
    Nobody answered.
    “What are you doing? Get out of
my house! I’m going to call the police!” Rachel’s father yelled out.
    “I’m not leaving until I find
her,” Rob said.
    “RACHEL!”
    “What is your problem? She is not
here. What do you not understand about that?” her father yelled.
    “Don’t lie to me. I can smell her
here. I know she’s here,” Rob said, realizing that what he just said was a
little bit crazy.
    “Smell her?” her father said. “This
has gone too far, please leave my property now!”
    “Where is she. I love her. I need
to be with her!” Rob yelled back.
    “You are crazy. You don’t deserve
to be with my daughter anyway,” her father said.
    Rob was so mad that he walked
over to Rachel’s father, picked him up off the ground and lifted him high up
into the air. His head hit the ceiling with a bang and Rob started shaking him
up and down, hitting his head with each motion.
    “LET ME DOWN!” Rachel’s father
yelled. “You’re insane!”
    “Just tell me where she is and
nobody gets hurt,” Rob said, in a creepy voice.
    “I don’t know!”
    “Well then, we can do this all
day!” Rob said lifting him up into the air and spinning him now above his head
with his super human strength.
    “I think she’s gone again,” her
father said, finally.
    “Gone where?” Rob asked, still
torturing the poor guy.
    “I don’t know, but I think I know
who might know,” he said.
    With that, Rob put her father
down on the ground and waited to hear what he had to say.
    “So?” Rob asked. “Who shall I go
to next?”
    For a moment, Rob thought he wasn’t
going to tell him, then he opened his mouth to speak. “She had visited with her
mother not long before she left us again. I think her mother knows where she is
or might have an idea to point you in the right direction.”
    Rob was thrilled by this
information, and part of him was surprised that her dad gave it to him. He was
sure he wouldn’t have, but then again, his life was at stake, so he didn’t have
much of a choice in the matter.
    “And where might she be?” Rob
asked.
    “She’s ill, she’s in the
hospital,” her father said.
    “The hospital?” Rob asked. “Which
one?”
    “The one in town,” he said.
    “Do the accept visitors outside
the family?” Rob asked, smartly.
    “Well, now that you mention it, I
don’t think so. Sorry, looks like you can’t see her.”
    “You don’t really think I’m going
to give up that quickly do you?” Rob asked.
    “Um..?”
    “You will call now and say I’m a
cousin in from out of state to see her and that they should expect me,” Rob
said.
    “What?” her father asked. “I can’t
do that.”
    “You can and you will!” Rob said,
walking over to him again as if to hurt him or torture him in some other
fashion.
    “STAY BACK!” her father pleaded. “I
beg you!”
    “Listen, I’m going to head over
to the hospital now, and if they don’t let me in, I’ll be back here for you. Do
you understand me?” Rob asked seething
