She shook vigorously in fear as whoever it was tried to break in, she tasted the salty liquid that found its way down her chin.She had no idea what to do next, she wasn't sure the door would keep her protected for too long and she was right because right before her very eyes, an axe passed through the door and it appeared the intruder was breaking in.She quickly looked around for where to hide, she looked under her bed but the space in between was too narrow for her to fit so she could only think of one last place.She quickly ran into her closet, took the pile of clothes, and placed them over herself, she covered her mouth with her hand to avoid gaining attention from any sounds she made, she took a deep breath in and out as her heart raced rapidly.The door was finally broken and someone barged into her room, she heard footsteps and sounds of things being flipped over and her neatly arranged room being scattered, she remembered the documents she left on her reading table and praye
They sped through the forest dodging all police cars they met on the way, the red-haired man was indeed a proficient stunt driver with such dexterity required by movie producers.Stacy was quiet all through the precarious ride, she feared whatever it was that lay ahead of her in the near future of the same night, she had no tears left to cry yet they dropped from her eyes sporadically making her clothing wet with the salty liquid.Amidst her lachrymose temperament, she spotted a speeding car up ahead, she raised a brow upon seeing the plate number and she could tell that it was Kloe's official car.How could she scream and be heard without being stopped by these vile monsters in human form sitting next to her on both sides, how could she put herself to be noticed by Kloe who she undoubtedly believed was headed for her house.She couldn't let this opportunity at her fingertips down the drain without an attempt, she had to think faster than she ever had even though her chances were very
Could it be help? she wondered or could it be something worse about to happen? whatever it was Kloe prepared her mind towards it. She sat down there placing her head on her knee, she was stressed and tired and without the energy to lift herself from the tar.As the car drove near, she raised her hair only to discover that it was followed by four bikes, two in front and the other two behind, and then a second car that followed it from behind."Who could this be?" She wondered staring at the car as it approached her.The car eventually stopped and so did the bikes.Slowly, the tinted windows were brought down, it was dark and she could barely see who the driver was, she stared at the window until it was down completely, and with the inside light, she could see the face of the driver."Hello!" He said"What are you doing here? He asked her.Kloe couldn't respond at first, she was taken aback upon seeing the bikes which were ridden by well-trained and armed officers.Putting herself toge
The car sped up and continued till they got to the exact point which led inside the woods."Why did we stop?" Kloe questioned.They alighted, casting quizzical looks at the officers."What going on?" Mr. Dwayne asked them with an attitude of impatience."They went this way," One of the officers on the bike replied pointing into the woods."They are inside there? I thought you told me that they have been found. " Mr. Dwayne asked getting annoyed." Dad, let's just go," Dan said."We can't drive in there, not with the size of our car," The driver complained leaving them disappointed once again."I know a route from the other side, though it's longer it's big enough to let even a truck in, "Another officer suggested." And you expect us, to spend a long time getting there, all I know is that I want to see my daughter and I want to see her alive, " Mr. Dwayne yelled before going back into the car and slamming the door after him.Every other person entered the car as well, before they drov
"Hurry up, please she must be fine!" Kloe yelled at the nurses without an iota of guilt in her voice."Calm down miss we will do the best we c..." Don't tell me that!" Kloe interjected,"Nothing and I repeat nothing must happen to her.""We assure you, mam, we will do our best, " The nurse replied with a reassuring smile before directing them toward the chairs.Kloe stood and watched as Stacy was taken from her presence on a hospital bed until she was out of sight.She sighed as tears trickled down her cheeks before sitting on the chair next to her."I'm surprised at you," Mr. Dwayne uttered without staring at her." I could only do what I can, I'm glad she was found," Kloe replied also without staring away from her fingers which had folded into a tight fist."Thank you," Mrs. Dwayne muttered to her surprise and she faked a smile in return." Thank you Kloe but I still have a question, what is the document they...James was Interrupted by a man who walked into the lobby in a haste."
"Hello Miss, " She said to the nurse who replied to her with a broad smile which quickly changed as soon as she saw Kloe. "How may I help you?" The clerk asked in a less concerned manner." Uhm I just wanted to know, has any man been here today, this night in particular, he was stabbed in the arm," Kloe questioned her with confidence but disliked the irritating glare the clerk cast at her."No not at all," The clerk responded with a carefree demeanor, she smiled at first but raising her head to see the figure before her, she was speechless.She expected to see a wealthy billionaire lady asking for help, not some middle-class woman dressed in rags with bruises all over her face and body."She has come for a free medical treatment," The nurse thought without saying a word." What do you mean he is not here, I was told that he had been admitted at this same hospital, probably less than two hours ago, how could he not be here? " Kloe slightly raised her voice." Ma please, if you want fre
Mr. Dwayne stared at his daughter with an eye full of emotions, he couldn't imagine losing her to whatever the reason was.His wife sat next to Stacy's bed, she placed Stacy's hand on hers while gazing into her hazel eyes."How are you?" She asked."I am good," Stacy replied trying to smile but her fatigue prevents her from successfully doing so."What happened to you, who were they, what did they want?" She asked continuously." Let her recover before bothering her with countless questions, " Mr. Dwayne interjected just before Kloe walked into the ward.Stacy's eyes widened in shock upon seeing her, how did Kloe get there, how did she get to know, maybe my parents told her and she arrived, but why is she looking all messed up? All these questions she asked herself."Kloe!" She exclaimed but with a worried expression."What happened to you?" She asked before anything else.Kloe intentionally ignored her questions and said " It doesn't matter Stacy, I just want to know how you are doin
She walked slowly towards the elevator, this time not because of some emotional trauma but fatigue.She had done a vigil that night barely getting a chance to shut her eyes, her head felt heavy and so did her eyes but she was determined to get this done with.As she entered the elevator she leaned back on the wall with her head raised high, she closed her eyes shut, and wished it was possible to get sleep for less than ten seconds in an elevator.The elevator stop at the second floor and she walked out of it sluggishly and struggled to maintain her balance."First door by the right," She recalled before taking another step toward the right.Soon, she was standing before a glass door which she knocked on slightly to avoid making unexpected loud noises."Yes come in," John's voice was heard behind the door.After a deep breath and a swift prayer in her heart hoping for the best, Kloe reached for the doorknob and walked into the office.She was first greeted by the pile of papers on John
