As soon as I arrived at Kendra’s penthouse, I packed my things quickly and dialed Trinity’s number. “Trinity.” “What happened earlier, Jada? You lost your connection didn’t you?” she asked. “Someone showed up sorry about that. By the way, do you have any news about Kendra?” I asked back. “Did the kidnappers call you already?” I added. “No, and it’s quite bothering me that they’re not calling. If they want money, it’s not a problem but it seems like they want you, Jada.” I closed my eyes to control the rage that started to build inside me again. “It’s that Coleman isn’t it?” I asked full of conviction. “I don’t think so, Jada.” My forehead crease

The phone slipped from my hands, I was shaking uncontrollably, along with the tears that consistently escapes from me. “I-I’m sorry Kendra, it’s all my fault.” Taken by the light approaching and a sound of an engine, my vision slowly fades as well. ***“Where am I?” Along with the confusion was followed by the sounds of waves. My forehead automatically creased as I try to remember what happened last night. “K-Kendra. I have to save her.” I immediately look at the clock near the bed, the kidnappers only gave me 24 hours. I have to move now. I set aside all of my questions why am I in this unfamiliar place, and how did I able to get here. I stand up and get my phone on the study table. “Where do you think you’re going?” I froze to

Waking up with heavy hearts, a white familiar ceiling greeted me. Followed by the flashes of a scene of explosions and burned buildings, as well as the ashes of Kendra’s body in front of me. I can feel the sweat slowly dripping down from my forehead, I heaved a deep breath to calm myself. It was just a dream, right? Taken aback by the sound of footsteps entering the room, I quickly shifted my gaze to him. “I’ll go home Coleman, I have to find Kendra,” I uttered and stands up. “Kendra is gone, Jada.” I froze and didn’t move a bit. “It’s not a good joke Coleman.” “Jada.” This time I look at him. “It was just a dream. Kendra’s alive.” I firmly stated and walk to get my phone. My eyes were pierced on my phone’s lock screen, where w

When we arrived on the island, my jaw literally drop with the amazing feature of it. The perfect white sand meets the clear blue water, and from the distance was the luxurious-looking two-story penthouse. “This is a paradise.” I can’t help but mutter. “This is our family private resort, but that was too long ago.” I took a short glance at him when I felt his mood suddenly change after saying that. “I won’t doubt if this will cost a million.” I tried to divert the topic because it will be a bit awkward for both of us here. “Yeah, it does.” “Will you let me buy this someday?” I asked as I help the driver of the yacht, Mr.Kiko brings our things inside. “Yeah sure, a 50 million will do.” “That seemed too cheap for&he

Before he could land his eyes on me I immediately closed mine. This is better this way, I wouldn’t know how would I act anyway if our eyes met.My heartbeats got me uncomfortable, though his arms were too warm and my head was leaning on his hard chest. After a minute of walking, I felt the soft cushion touch my back, it gives me the idea that he was placing me on the mattress. The way he gently do that surprised me, seems like a different person was doing it,  I wanted to open my eyes badly. But I can feel his stares at me for the next couple of minutes so I remained to pretend asleep. What’s wrong with him?Until I slowly felt his heavy breathing and footsteps walking away followed by the sound of the shutting door. *** The heat of the sun got me awake as it strikes straight onto my face. A curve smile left my face when the beautiful scenery right in front of me greeted me, making me stand up
