*Laura's Pnt Of View*
I have been in the room, calculation the time ever since I woke up. It was the next day and I usually got breakfast by 10 am. I didn't touch the food that much but I hid the fork and the small knife in the bed. Thankfully, it was Cody who brought my food. I could tell that he was ashamed to face me.
I was sure he wasn't staying at home today before of his father and his conversation yesternight. I already have somethings planned out. I am not going to be sulking and waiting for tomorrow. If Cody's father fall asleep or goes out, I'll sneek out. I have to try, I'll never give up.
If he catches me, I'll bite off his arm and run as fast as I can. That's not an actual plan but it's something. Something I can manage..
I suddenly heard heavy footsteps and I panicked a little. I quickly shoved the knife and fork under the bed. I'm not sure that I'll use them but I had to be prepared to defend myself.
The door opened slowly and I rested back with a blank expression. I knew who it was, maybe I would ask him his name today!!
When he's eyes rested on me he smiled. It was more like a boyish creepy smile. "How's my little wife," he teased and I tried my best to keep my expression.
My eyes were filled with disgust and hatred. When he saw that I wouldn't answer he sighed and stepped closer.
"I am staying here to make sure that you don't do anything stupid," he meant escape! He is going to ruin my plans. How will I leave here with him right under my nose.
"I wouldn't think of it," I muttered as he sat down.
"I thought so.." He slided on his chair.
We sat down in complete silence. Even though I was pretending to sleep, I was planning my escape in my head. He just sat there and I knew he would get tired and maybe fall asleep.
Well, my calculations were correct because in about a few minutes, I heard him snore. I waited for some more minutes, just to be sure that he was asleep.
I creeped out of the bed quietly, one thing I found out about him is that he is a light sleeper and I don't want him to wake up.
I slowly opened and closed the door, I was relieved that he didn't stir at all. I hurried out of the house in stealth mode. I was kinda expecting...
"Stop right there," from Cody but I remembered that he's not at home.
*Third Person's Pnt Of View*
"We have to check every neighborhood to be sure," the CIA stated as they searched over the crime scene.
They wanted to find out more. More clues, more answers but they didn't. Just that handkerchief that was written on top.
They decided to check around the area, the houses as that would be better. You see, Mr Howard could have their heads if they didn't find the girl. Literally and not literally. He was really close to the royal family so they had to do their best.
Adrenaline rushed through Laura's veins as she ran. She didn't know where she was going but it had to be out of here.
She had to call out to someone before he will catch her.
Unfortunately, just like the other day, a hand tried her into a corner with her mouth covered by another hand. It was him!
"Trying to escape when you have a wedding tomorrow," he spoke and she stirred, tears blinded her eyes and she knew one thing...just one thing to do right there.
She bit his hand and he gulped but didn't release her. When he was about to lash on her she elbowed him really hard on the stomach.
He groaned at the pain and fell down, in that case he released her. She didn't have time to think. She ran...
Her captor recovered though, he ran after her, he wasn't going to let her escape at all.
She, on the other hand was breathing deeply, trying to run faster. But she didn't expect when he launched on her. She cried out in pain and tried to get him off her which cause several cuts and bruises on her body.
She managed to peel him off and stood up to run again but received a massive yank, tug from her captor. Her body slammed on the ground heavily but she didn't care. She spit out blood, the fall had an effect, a bad one.
She tried to stand up again ignoring her body state. Her left leg was definitely broken but she didn't pay attention to it. She was face to face with her freedom. She only had one time left to do, fight!!!
She leaped faster than ever but he still caught up with her. She was corned and terrified but she wasn't going to give up. She screamed as loud as she could as she struggled with him.
The CIAs who were fortunately around the corner, heard the scream and ran towards it. When they arrived, Laura's captor had an uncouncious Laura in his hands. The CIAs pointed their guns at him and he sighed.
He was corned, they rounded him up and picked the uncouncious girl. She aren't going to die after all.
❄❄❄❄❄❄❄
Laura's eyes snapped open and she found her self breathing heavily. She tried to sit up but something restricted her and for the fact that her left leg was broken she didn't succeed.
Mr Howard, Nelly, Luke, kat, Gabriel, Sandra, Ricky, Max, Harper, Emma, Christy, Madison, Rachel, Tammy, Francesca and three unknown figures were currently in her room. It was big enough to contain them.
"She's awake," Gab smiled at Laura. Who was finding it hard to hold her blush.
She was immediately boomeranged with hugs and kisses.
"We are so happy that you are awake," Christy chipped in and Laura gasped.
"You're here?" She asked bewildered and she nodded.
"Along with Francesca, Maddy, Tammy and Rachel" she pointed out casually. She saw nothing in it, on the other hand Laura did, everything was wrong... Rachel and Tammy? What did they want? She thought! She had gone through a lot because of them.
As if it was they cue, Rachel and Tammy appeared with a sad expression on their faces. She knew right then, that they wanted to apologize and she would happy forgive them. She didn't hold grudges.
"Laur--"
"You don't need to apologize, you are already forgiven," Laura shrugged and they faces brightened up.
"But that doesn't mean that we can go back to the way it was," Laura pointed out and their bright faces dimmed a bit but it was good. They understood that they did wrong and accept the consequences.
"Laura!!" Nelly screamed and the rest took her into a hug. They continued their reunion till the last persons....
Mr Howard gave her time to settle down before he dramatically cleared his throat and they all looked up to him.
"Laura! There are some people who are willing to meet you," he smiled. He didn't know what she would do but he had to tell her.
"Who? Are they Anne and her mother. Or multiple celebrities?..." She asked away and he chuckled at her curiosity.
"If you keep asking you'll get it and I'm not gonna let you get it," he smiled and sighed.
He hesitated but finally shifted away and behind him was a man with dark hair and smart features. Beside him was a beautiful woman with red strawberry hair, she was holding a boy, a little boy with glimmering eyes and dark hair.
They were all nicely dressed. It showed that they were from a very rich family.
Maybe they were just one of dad's business partners who wanted to meet me! Laura thought but was yet to figure it out.
"Hi!" Laura waved with a smile and they beamed at her.
"Oh Laura!" The woman ran into her arms and cuddled her. Laura was behind confused and shocked.
Who was this woman? She thought. Maybe she's just happy I'm fine! Laura tried to defend.
"Who are you?" Laura finally asked, looking closely at the woman. The woman almost broke down in tears. She doesn't remember me! The woman thought.
"I am your mother!" The woman stared and the place was silent.
"We are your family."
