Day went on and it’s my last class. The bell rang, indicating that class was over. I packed my things and bid goodbyes to my friends and walked to the car. Paul opened the car door. I stepped inside and he closed the door and walked back to his seat. He drove us back to the mansion, “How was the day Vannesa?” He said,
“Boring, Beth didn’t come to college and classes went on as usual,” I said in a bored tone,
“How was your day Paul?”
“Mine was good dear,” he said,
We reached the mansion, I got out of the car and walked inside the house. I walked to my room and placed my bag on the table and walked directly to the bathroom, I freshened up and dressed in my ripped Shorts and an off-shoulder Burgundy long and flounce sleeves crop top.
I want to go to the library and for the project which I have to submit the day after tomorrow, I took my bag and walked downstairs. While I’m walking through the living room, Judy saw me.
“Vanessa?” She called from the kitchen,
I turned to her, “Yes?”
“Where are you going dear?” She asked cutting the vegetables,
“Library,” I said,
“It’s on the top floor, why are you going outside?” She said pointing her finger and walking to me,
“Oh, Ok Thank you,” I said, Turning back to the stairs. She smiled at me and walked back to the kitchen.
I climbed the stairs and reached 2 floors and I searched for the library and I didn’t find it. I climbed the stairs and reached the 3rd floor, I walked through the guest rooms, I turned back. I noticed something at a corner and turned back, I walked there and It was the same gate which I tried to open that day. I traced my fingers on the panel on the right, I want to see what was inside. I tried to open it, I typed some codes on the panel, it didn’t work. I got frustrated and kicked the door and turned around, I heard something and turned around to see the door open, all this time it was open and I like an idiot typed all the stupid codes.
I slowly stepped inside the room, It was dark and there was only one light in a corner, I walked there and there was a metal door, I opened it there was a narrow path leading to something, I stepped inside and walked through it, my heart was beating rapidly against my ribcage. I reached a corner where stairs were leading down, I walked down the stairs, there was a tunnel leading somewhere, I walked through the tunnel and reached a big metal double door, I pushed it and stepped inside and there was darkness inside. I walked and walked, in a corner there was light. As I walked closer to the light, I noticed someone. I walked closer to a clear picture. There was a man in a white T-shirt and black jeans, he was covered in blood, his head was hung low. His hands and legs were tied to the chair. His T-shirt was covered with blood, as I’m closer I can see his features clearly. My heart was beating furiously, My breathing was shaky, I tried to make a sound but nothing came out, I cleared my throat, “H..Hello”
No response
“Are...y..you okay?” I asked in a shaking voice,
Still no response
“Are...you o..okay?” I said touching his shoulder, his body moved back and his face came to display and I gasped, stepping back.
Tears were rolling down my cheeks, my body was shaking badly.
***Please try my other books, you will love them***
I looked around and there were computers around, placed on tables, and a big monitor on the wall. They're off other than I found nothing that could help me.
I hurried to him. I untied him; I pulled him up and raised his hand and I moved under his arms, I wrapped one of my hands around his waist and the other was holding his arm. With so much difficulty, I walked him towards the stairs, I climbed them, I was sobbing and struggling to climb the stairs with him. I somehow climbed the stairs and reached the gate. I moved us out and strolled through the room and stepped outside that. I walked us to my room, and I moved him to my bed; I took my phone in my hands and called the doctor. I was pacing back and forth, waiting for the doctor. He arrived. His name was Charles, one of Enzo's friends.
He cleaned the blood and dressed the bruises on his body, he gave him some doses of medicine. He walked to me with a worried expression.
"Do you know him?"
"Yes, how is he, Charles? is he okay?" I asked,
"He is fine now. He will open his eyes in just a few minutes"
"Thank god," I said, releasing the breath that I was holding.
"He was beaten badly. He has injuries all over his body. Who did this to him?" He asked with concern,
"I don't know Charles, I...found him like this," I said. I was stopping myself not to crying in front of him.
"Hmm...I need to leave now, call me if there is any emergency okay" he said touching my head.
I walked inside to him, sat on the ground near him and rested my head on the bed and waited for him to open his eyes. Who did this to him? Is it Enzo? No...No Enzo will never do this, my friends. He promised me, Who did this? Why did they tie him up and why did they beat him up like this? Did Aron do something?
Why is he in my house unless someone in here did this to him, who could it be? With all these thoughts running in my head, I closed my eyes and drifted away.
