“PLEASE, let me go! What are you trying to do with me?!” she screamed as she struggled to free herself from them.Her shoulders were held by two men. “Miss, stop what you’re doing because we don’t have any bad intentions towards you!” the man on her right side said.“You have no intentions? Then, what exactly is this? Isn’t a kidnapping!?”“Not the other way around,” the guy on her left side added.She was adamant. “This is an abduction!”“Say whatever you want to say, Miss, but we’re just following orders.”“I said, let me go! We’re not rich! You will not get any ransom from my family!” she whimpered.When the two men tightened their grip on her arm, she let out a small gasp. “If we were truly evil, we would have gagged you and tied your hands earlier!”“And you also shouldn’t even see our faces right now,” the guy added.She stopped in her tracks. The man has a point. The men who actually abducted her did not look like goons because of their good posture and appearance. They look li

“GRANDPA!” The old man stood up when he heard that voice that echoed throughout the mansion.“At long last, my guest has arrived. Meet my grand–”“You?!” Meredith and Randall said in unison when they noticed each other.He frowned. “M-Meredith? W-what are you doing here?” “So, you already know each other?” the old man said in shock.“Yes! We are in the same class,” he answered while still wondering why she was in the mansion.She couldn’t believe that they were related to each other.“What about you guys, how did you meet?” Randall asked who was now looking back and forth at them.“I invited her here because I wanted to thank her for saving my life the other day while I was walking down the street,” the old man said.Randall shook his head in dismay. “Grandpa, haven’t we talked about this a million times? Why you’re so stubborn? I told you to stay at home. But what did you do? You see, something bad almost happened to you.”“Hey! Don’t worry about it. The important thing is that I’m

AFTER Meredith’s club meeting, she went straight to Venza Café which is Shanaia’s cousin’s Café, because today is her first day. She chose to be a dishwasher so that no one would noticed her working there at the age of seventeen.“Good evening, Sir Magnus!” she greeted the owner of the café when she saw him.“It’s great that you’re here early. Here’s your hair net and apron. Today is rush hour so work must be completed quickly. But that doesn’t mean you won’t be cautious in your actions. Remember, you have to pay for it if you break it!” Marcus said as a reminder.“Yes, Sir!”“Good! You may now start your work.”She nodded then quickly put on the hair net and apron before she proceeded to her workstation. Meredith could breathe a sigh of relief when the café closed at ten o’clock. Her palms were almost wrinkled from being soaked in water for four hours. Her feet were also hurt from standing for so long. Fortunately, she was able to return home immediately.“Hi, Mom! Why are you here

“MER! Mer, what’s going on? Are you okay?” Joebeth asked in a panic mode when she noticed that Meredith was trembling with fear while her hands were covering both of her ears.John Person came over right away. “Mer?! W-what’s going on?” he asked worriedly.Joebeth shook her head. “I-I don’t know! She suddenly became like that after the loud sound.”“Mer, hang-on!” Randall interrupted who was now close to Meredith.“Robi, get my bag, hurry! Hurry up!” he begged, which his friend immediately followed.“Mr. Dacles, what the hell are you doing?!” John Person asked with a mixture of worry and anger after Randall put the earphone in Meredith’s ears.Maybe he thinks what he is doing is crazy.“Mr. Dacles, I’m warning you! If something bad happ—”“Captain, I know exactly what I’m doing!” he interrupted.“But—”“Everything is fine now. She’s just having a panic attack, but she will get over it soon,” he answered.John Person frowned. “W-what do you mean?”“Y-you mean, you don’t know anything a

MEREDITH ends her day without seeing Randall again. She just found out that Don Warrick had not yet been released from the hospital according to what their professor had informed them so she decided to pay him a visit after their appointment with the Forensic sketch artist. And now, they’re just waiting for the result of the sketch.“Oh my gosh! The girl in your dream is stunningly beautiful! She looks like a Campus Queen.” Marylex’s reaction when she saw the face of the woman in Meredith’s dream.“And a goddess who descended from heaven!” Shanaia added.Marylex put her right hand under her chin to think. “I’m wondering, when will you see the man’s face in your dream? I’m sure he’s attractive and handsome too!” “That’s what I’m thinking too.”Shanaia rubbed her shoulder. “Don’t worry, we will help you.”She folded the paper and then stuck it in her notebook before putting it in her bag. “Thank you, girls!”“You’re welcome, Mer!” they said in unison.“Let me take you to the café then,
Bound By A Red Thread THREAD SIXTEEN: SAVED
“IF YOU don’t want to get hurt, give me your bag!” the thief whispered, making Meredith to stiffen in her position. She tightened her grip on her bag because it contained the money she had saved for a month to pay off some of her father’s debt. Their boss gives them tips for their hard work at the café, that’s why they are all blessed so she had saved a lot somehow. The fog that night was cold, but she was sweating because of the danger she was facing right now.“P-please, have mercy on me. I have a lot of debt to pay,” she pleaded. The grace period given to them is next week. What to do?“I’m sorry, Miss, but I owe a lot as well, so don’t talk too much. Will you hand over your bag or I will bury my knife in your waist?”No way! She needed to flee. Until she had no choice but to step on his foot with all her strength to force him to release her. She immediately ran but he caught her hair. She couldn’t do anything but closed her eyes to the possible consequences when the thief suddenly

“D-DON’T tell me you agreed to your grandfather wishes?” Meredith asked when she realized what Randall had said.Meredith knew Randall could afford that large sum, but at his age, he didn’t, for now, especially since his inheritance would only be given if he agreed to what his grandfather wanted. Randall looked her in the eyes. “Well, that’s the only way I can think of to solve your problems. We will both benefit if we agree to Grandpa’s dying wish.”He pointed a finger on her. “You, you can pay your debt instantly.” Then pointed to himself. “And me? I will get my inheritance.”When he got no response from her, he continued. “I also realized that during the time I was happy-go-lucky, he never interfered with everything I wanted to do. He gives me everything I want so maybe it’s time for me to follow him, especially now that he’s getting weaker and weaker. Consider how this agreement will benefit both of us. All we have to do is to pretend in front of Grandpa to make him believe us. P

“ISN’T your grandfather amazing? I can’t believe that he gave away the one million pesos so quickly.” Meredith commented as they made their way to Mr. Hakim when the weekend has come, the day given to them.“I told you, I’m his only grandchild, that’s why it’s easy for me to ask him. If there was anything Grandpa was afraid of, it was me going to America with Dad.”“If I have to bet on the Lottery every day just to save money to repay you, I will.”He laughed and shook his head in response to what she said. “You can do whatever you want. I’m not putting pressure on you.”She nodded. Until they realized they had arrived at Mr. Hakim’s place.“Let’s go straight to our business. Give me what I need.” Mr. Hakim greeted them.Randall showed the check to the paunchy man. Mr. Hakim was about to take it when Randall moved it away from him.“W-what are you doing? Just give it to him.” Meredith whispered when he do that to the paunchy man.“What the hell?! You really want me to get angry, don’t
