บททั้งหมดของ 30 days in captivity: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

Dusk came and time swiftly moved on, I hadn’t move an inch from where I was sitting. Terror was filled in my heart as the thought of me being taken by him as a way to payback for my father’s sin occupied my head.“Calm down Cassandra, you need to calm down. Nothing is going to happen, besides he made a deal with my father, I don’t think he will go against the terms of their deal made.” I muttered as I tried consoling myself.Growl. My stomach began to tremble as I was able to calm myself down, I hadn’t taken neither food nor water. I looked at the window, the sun was setting, then I realized I had been in the room all day long. I stood up from the bed and made my exit, I got hold of the doorknob and fear was instill on me again.“What if I run into him on my way out?” I withdrew from the door. How am I suppose to face him, no this won’t do me any good. I should face it still, if I don’t I will have to do it later.Finally, I opened the door as I found a bit of courage but just as I st

At the shopping mall, it was my first time stepping outside after the visit to my parents. Celia looked so excited while on the contrary, I was a bit disturbed within me. Why does he what me to put on such a dress? What does he have in mind for me tonight? And the club, what is he really up to?“It won’t do you any good thinking about it. You should let it go and enjoy the moment.” Celia’s voice came to me as it brought my mind back into reality.“No matter how I think about it. I just can’t seem to arrive at an answer. I have been thinking, what does he want to do with me?”“That’s a question even I can’t answer.” She said. “Cassandra, let it all go. Just free your mind of it and let it go. You can never know what he may be thinking, all you can do is accept whatever comes your way, but no need to panic okay. I know him more than you do, so be reassured that nothing is going to happen to you.” She said as she tried consoling me.“Well, if you say so.” I replied bluntly.“Good, now th

Still wrapped in Celia’s embrace, I couldn’t stop the flow of tears from my eyelids. Everything that happened, from the club to the warehouse and even in my room got me scared and shaken to my bones. I really am doomed.“Cassandra, calm down. It’s all going to be fine.” Celia spoke as she tried to console me. But I wasn’t ready to be consoled at the moment, my whole life has just turned into a dark and scary place filled with terror. How on earth am I supposed to feel fine.“What did I do to deserve any of this?” I murmured in a whisper tone. “My life used to be better than this, I was always happy and cheerful. How on earth did I became this way?” I asked as I hoped for an answer but there was none, neither Celia could give an answer to my question.“Everything is going to be alright Cassandra. Trust me on this, all you just need to do is to be brave.”“I was given a gun to point at a man Celia, and not just that, I was also threatened in my room by him. How do you except me to be br

I woke up the next morning laid down on the bed. I had no idea how I made it back home, neither could I recall a thing as I was totally blank and wasted.I kept on staring at the painting on the ceiling, I felt nauseous and my entire body was numb and heavy. Inside my mouth tasted a bit sour and I reek of the smell of tequila and an unidentified alcoholic smell.“I must have drank quite a lot last night.” I thought to myself. The room door opened and Celia walked in with a tray which contained a white porcelain bowl with blue pattern of flowers drawn on its side“Here, I made you porridge to cure your hangover.” She placed it on the bed and helped me up in a sitting posture.“Thank you Celia.” I spoke and dug into it immediately. Celia kept her gaze fixed on me while I helped myself to the bowl of porridge before. Soon I noticed her lurking eyes all over me. “What is it? Why are you looking at me like I had just committed a huge blunder?” I asked with all curiosity.“Nothing.” She sai

I stood in dismay as I watched Guzman dropped my phone and laptop before me. I could not believe it, he wasn’t joking neither does it look like a game anymore for he was being serious.“So Cassandra, if you still think I am joking go ahead and make a wish. Ask for anything you want.”Terror got hold of me. His voice was calm and his facial expression a bit serious. This was my chance to ask for anything, for him to prove to me that this isn’t a joke that he wants to treat me differently but I couldn’t make a decision. I became mute and my head was point-blank due to fear of him.“You aren’t saying anything.” He got up and made it to my side. “Guzman, you may leave us.” As instructed by his boss, he made his way out to his duty post and it was just the two of us alone in the dinning.“You really must think of me as a monster Cassandra, but that’s not who I am. I am different from what you see, you must have heard a lot of things about me and I am also aware that you know the truth.” He
