Against all odds State of denial
Miron’s storyIt’s been almost three days and no damn sign of the kidnapper. I was going insane with all this worry. I don’t even have proof of life. Peter and Samantha kept calling me and every time the answer is the same. Even Corrine canceled all her events to be with us in such moments.We talked on the phone to gather in a meeting here at my house. Maybe we could figure out who and why is doing this. There are a lot of questions around this mystery. I just hope Rita is fine.I can’t wait and I keep looking at my watch, counting the hours until this evening. I have all the information which I had been able to find out all these past few years. All that Rita told me and all my research about the company she used to work for. There has to be something that we’ve missed. From the day of her so-called accident to the one she was taken. Someone hates her so much that if at the beginning wanted her dead now I am not so sure anymore. He or she would have already done it. That is a though
Against all odds In search of the truth
Rita’s storyThe days passed and I was being held in this smelly warehouse. Or at least I thought it was a warehouse. I lost track of time, not knowing when is day or is night. Every once in awhile Sarah passes to see me, bring me food if I can call it food to a loaf of bread with a glass of water. But I was happy it was enough to survive this ordeal. Every time she entered the wooden door cracked load so I see it as a warning. I thought of freeing myself and run as fast as I can but in the end, fear takes over me and I change my mind. I don’t want to piss her off. The door cracked again and her high heels echoed in the entire place.- How is my little prisoner doing?Why the sudden interest in me? There are moments when I don’t really care what happens to me as long as this lunatic is being caught and punished. - Why do you care?- Well, I don’t, I was making some conversation because I have to give you some fresh news.- What could possibly be so
Against all odds Let the game begin
Rita’s storyI was getting tired by the day. The lack of food and water was beginning acute and my strength was slowly leaving me. Even breathing was hard. Sarah no longer blindfolded me but I was still tied to my hands and feet. I couldn’t feel them anymore. I wish this ordeal would end. I wonder what Miron has to do in all this. What is this crazy woman making him doing? If I could just tell him not to listen to her; she was going to kill me anyway.- Good morning sunshine!- You have no right calling me this way you sick!- Oh, is this how are you going to treat me? I have a question and I demand an answer if you wish this to be over quickly.I was looking at her in disbelief and wondering what in the world was going on in that sick mind of hers? - I will take your silence as a yes. Now, you better tell me, what is the place where you have never been but you want to go with all your heart?- What makes you think I will tell you the answ
Against all odds Cruel reality
Rita’s storyAll this waiting became harder and harder. Two days without water only this tiny loaf of bread was too much to bear for me. I really don’t know what Sarah has in mind. I just hope she would change her mind and quickly. I am not sure how much I can resist without water. And then the door opened. Sarah and the two beasts popped in. I wonder if it is for another beating.- Oh, darling, you don’t look so good. Are you feeling ok?I averted my eyes in another direction. I was scared of those two. Another fist in my empty stomach and probably I won’t get up until tomorrow, whatever day it is tomorrow. - What do you want?- Well actually to tell you that your Miron almost passed his first assignment. That means that if he gives me the right answer to one more question you will receive water. Surprised?- What happened if he fails to answer correctly?- You don’t want to find that right about now, darling. Let’s just hope Miron is sma
Against all odds Back in the game
Miron’s storySaturday morning, at 9 o’clock; the second message came to my phone. This time I was alone. My hands were shaking trying to open it; another challenge that I have to pass so my Rita will not get hurt. „ You will be punished for cold-hearted, go back where it all started!”Where it all started? And why shall I be punished? Anyway, I have to think, not too much though because I happen to know the exact place where this story started. I needed only my keys and off I was. Winter has passed and now mornings were nor so chilly. In twenty minutes I arrived at the scene where it all began, the site of Rita and Pamela’s accident. Memories were so vivid in my head. How I was driving home after a long night, how Peter called me and how I had to hang up on him when I saw the railing smashed. I had my heart in my throat praying that nobody would be in the car. My expectations were ruined when a young woman struggling between life and death caught into that car. If she hadn’t been w
Against all odds Was it too late?
Rita’s storyAt this point, I lost track of time. I don’t know if it’s day or if it is night. The days follow one another so is my life. Maybe Miron will never find me or maybe he just forgot about me. Sarah keeps telling me that he is playing some kind of game. She comes once in a while, asking me a few questions about me, and when she returns in two or three days with another set of questions. She says it is part of the game and because Miron is playing it I get to have water and food. That means Miron is not giving up on me. I guess these two days have passed because Sarah is back again.- Morning honey!So it is the morning. At least that I know. As I didn’t answer anything she continued.- It was not the time for my visit, but I just came to see you. You see, I grew found on you.Maybe the days haven’t yet passed. She came early this time. I can’t say I missed her. - So you don’t want to talk to me. Suit yourself. I must tell you that Miron is making a
Against all odds Revelations
Rita’s story Everything around me was spinning and the blow directly to my stomach made me sick. That was the second time these people mistreated me. I didn’t think those blows could be so painful. I crouched to the ground falling from the chair I was no longer tied up. Only my hands and my legs were. Sarah and the three gorillas were surrounding me like they were of a trophy or something. I also knew that Miron heard my whining but I could not help it. It hurt too much. I wanted to spare him the worries but I kind of saw Sarah putting the phone in my direction so he could hear me better. That means woman. - Does it hurt you, dear Rita?I tried to look up to that ugly face of her but I felt my head as heavy as a stone. - Ok, no need to stand up.- You did it on purpose…- So what if I did? I wanted just to spice up a little bit the game. It was becoming so boring. By now Miron must have gone insane. Shall we call him? Or shall we let him boil in
Against all odds False truths
Myron’s storyI have waited all day to receive a callback and nothing. I was imagining all sorts of things and my mind could not cope anymore with this uncertainty. It was already too much even for me. There were three weeks now since Rita is being held and I have to respond to all sorts of questions and riddles but there is no sign that Sarah will release her soon. Eventually, Peter found me a tracker device from one of his hacker friends. Sometimes I don’t even want to think about where he has those friends. I will not even ask. - Let me see it, please!It was kind of big; Peter arranged it on the table. Many buttons that maybe only he knows how to handle. - Do you happen to know how to use this?- Actually I do. My friend taught me some basics so it should be fine. Al you have to do is when Sarah calls, press this tiny button and keep her talking for up to thirty seconds. In this way, we shall find her location in approximately one minute.- T
