Chapter Fourteen
I slowly walk backwards down the aisle until I'm away enough, I turn walking down another aisle trying to find an exit or something. How much good is this helping if I'm just walking aimlessly around aisles? I stop and start to think about my next moves, Anthony isn't gonna be distracted forever and will soon realise we're not there. If he sees me just walking around he'll know I was tying to escape, and I might end up like his mother, I see a woman sat at a little desk with signup sheets smiling, an idea soon pops in my mind and I quickly walk over there.
"Hi miss, are you interested in joining our weekly antiques club?" She asks politely with a smile, I quickly nod looking behind me to check Anthony wasn't about "that's great! I just need your full name" she smiles pulling a clipboard up with a pen, waiting for me to say something.
"Yes my

It's been a few more weeks since Anthony took me to case the joint, as ink put it that day. I've been leaving the police so many notes but I don't know if they're actually seeing them, the last note I left brought us the closest we've been to escaping, but still not close enough. Anthony has been going out a lot leaving Amelia and me with ink, ink doesn't seem that bright so I've been trying to persuade him to take us out, but Anthony has his claws in that poor guy. Today had just been like any normal day for the life we're living now, as it was on the warmer side of days for it being nearly winter, I was in the garden with Amelia under the watchful eye of Anthony in the kitchen. Amelia can now sit up by herself so she was just playing with her toys on her blanket, while I lay down looking at the sky. The peaceful day was disr
His Puppet Chapter Sixteen
I was nearly finished getting Amelia ready for bed, all I needed to do was make her a bottle and than she'd be down for the night. I carry her downstairs, passed ink who was halfway through his fizzy drinks, I walk into the kitchen going to the cupboard to find we had no more formula. Than it hit me, this could be our escape plan, if I send ink to the shop's we'll finally be alone in the house to escape. I walk into the living room, where he's throwing an empty can into his bag immediately opening a second one, that cannot be good for him. "We're out of formula" I say, while looking around the very messy living room, Anthony isn't gonna be too pleased. "Well you're gonna have to wait until Anthony gets back" he burps, once again turning his attention back to the tv, I do
His Puppet Chapter Seventeen
I was sat in the garden with Amelia once again, but this time it was a little colder, my ankle felt better than last night but it still meant I couldn't walk around very fast. I take a look over to Tammy's fence to see one of those white police tent things over the shed, there's been police in and out of that place since they found her. I don't know why Anthony is so cool with us going in the back garden, I mean I could just pop my head over the fence and tell them who I was. I turn my attention to the kitchen window to see him sat with a cup staring at us, okay I now know why he's so cool with letting us in the back garden, he's watching us like a hawk from the window! I turn my attention back to Amelia as I hear a phone ring, not thinking much about it I let it go and continued to enjoy being with her. A few minutes pass, until out runs a worried looking Anthony slipping a phone into his pocket.
His Puppet Chapter Eighteen
We walk around for a few hours taking in the amazing wildlife, Anthony was right, my foot was actually feeling a bit better after all the walking. We take a rest on one of the benches, so Amelia could have a bottle, I sat beside Anthony as he fed her. I did enjoy the walk but I don't know if that's a good thing, should I be enjoying myself? I mean I'm definitely not always, but it's moments like this when I see a different side to Anthony. Does that make me weird for feeling like this? I still wanna go home and if the chance came right now in this moment to go home, I'd take it without even a second thought. We've been here for almost five months and there's only been this time I'm enjoying myself, again does that make me weird? Anthony's phone ringing brings me out of my questioning thoughts, he pulls it out but frowns when he looks at the
His Puppet Chapter Nineteen
The last few days have been a blur, Anthony has had his friends around every night, drinking until the early hours. He calls it breaking in the new house, I call it slowly breaking your body. I had just put Amelia down for a nap when I pass Anthony in the hallway, he didn't look that great, probably from all the drinking. "I have a raging hangover, I'm gonna have a little nap" he groans out, rubbing his face as he spoke, he looked like he might puke, faint or all the above! "Okay, I did just put Amelia down for her nap, so please be as quiet as you can" I smile, not wanting to start any drama, I'm hoping if I play ball for a while, it'll be less obvious when I plan my escape. He just nods walking int
His Puppet Chapter Twenty
I'm awoke to Anthony taking Amelia off me and moving her to the cot, I take a look outside to see it was now pitch black, we'd been asleep for a few hours. I turn back around to fall back to sleep, but Anthony jumps beside me my eyes opening immediately. "It took awhile and a lot of tears, but John is safely at home" he smiles, looking over at me with his arms crossed, I just nod closing my eyes once more but he nudges my side "now it's time to hold up your end of the deal" he says with a pointed look, I mean I did tell him I would and he actually did stick to his word for once. I nod sitting up in bed rubbing my eyes, now I didn't know if I wanted to go into full detail. But I didn't know how I could change the story without going into full detail, I didn't realise I hadn't spoke until he nudged me again.
His Puppet Chapter Twenty-One
It's been a few days since the whole John fiasco, at first I was worried that Anthony did something to him but he rang yesterday. He asked to speak to me which Anthony allowed, he apologised over and over again and thanked me for stopping Anthony. I was just glad he was safe and kind of shocked that Anthony actually listened to me, I mean he's been so different since we moved here, probably because he knows there isn't a way out.I was playing with Amelia in the living room, making sure she didn't get hurt as she was trying to crawl, Anthony was somewhere in the house doing who knows what, I tend not to ask questions, when the bell for the gate rang through the house. I knew I wasn't meant to open the door but I didn't know if Anthony heard it, I make sure Amelia was safe before rising to my feet. I start to walk around the house calling his name but I couldn't find him, this house was massive I've probably only b
His Puppet Chapter Twenty-Two
I had just finished getting Amelia the ready for the day,when Anthony walks through the door, I send him a quick smile turning back around to look at Amelia. I feel his hand going around my waist causing me to freeze, he leans down smiling at Amelia just as I put her last sock on. Once she was finished I go to move but he takes my hand pulling me back towards him, he pulls me straight in front for him where he tucks a piece of my hair behind my ear. "How did I ever get so lucky to find you and Amelia?" He asks with a smile, wait so he isn't fully mad, he remembers he also found Amelia and we didn't have her. I was about to answer him but continuous rings of the doorbell causes us both to look towards the bedroom door, Anthony seems confused, obviously not expecting anyone. He tells me to wait here while he goes to the
