Bella's little secret

Chapter 3

We danced for a few minutes. I got tired and I needed to rest.

I'm tired, I said.

Come on Bella ,we just started dancing. gift replied

But I'm tired already. I need to sit

The music is too loud .

Ah fun ....spoiler! she said

I went back, opened my drink, finally I'm left alone!

Where could Leo be?

Should I call him ?

I shrugged the idea off and drank from my bottle, what a party.

Tell me what an angel is doing all alone.

I had someone from behind and it almost made me spill my drink from my mouth.

But luckily, I didn't

I turned and of course it was him .

hi ,he smiled charmingly

As he sat facing me

Hi, I reciprocated trying to get over the shock ..

you actually scared me i added and he laughed.

When will you ever get rid of this chippy attitude of yours Bella? He asked and I chuckled.

I really don't know why I get scared.

So how have you been ?he asked

taking a drink from the table

I am fine .....uhm and you?

I am good, he replied and drunk from the table.

I took out time to stare at him ,he was doubly handsome, he had these cute baby lashes and that was what I admired most from him ..

How was school today ,?he went ahead and asked

Boring as usual, I really can't wait to be done with it.. I replied and he laughed

Don't worry ,you have just a few months left.

we didn't say anything for a while and it made me kind of nervous

So how was your day? I asked

it went well ,Bella he called my name and my heart skipped .

yes I replied

There's something important i need to tell you

My eyes were really gushing with curiosity. I suddenly wished I could have a peep into his head to see what he had in mind.

you are a nice person Bella.... a lovely lady and all the time we've been together, I cherish them so much, bella I....

His phone started ringing immediately, cutting him off.

what the heck

He looked at the screen and with the look on his face the caller seemed important.

I'll be right back he said and left the table

Seriously I said ,after he left

Who is that calling him ?

Esther came running to me immediately

Bella ,what did Leo say to you? I saw you both together locked in.

She was watching me all along!

What did he say! She asked again as I acted dumbfounded .

I need to use the bathroom. I took my bag immediately and left the table.

Really look at how she left me here .

peace's Pov

After spending a long time with Daniel ,he got an urgent call from the office and had to leave and so, I decided to check up on my sisters.

Surprisingly ,when I got there the table was empty.

huh where have they gone to? I took a seat and open a bottle of wine

I am sure they're having fun

Not long ago, Leo came to me

hi peace

hi ,you care for some drink

No, not really

I'm okay

where is Bella ?his asked

I seriously have no idea I mean I just returned and I couldn't find them

But she was right here, not long ago

We were actually talking before I left to make a phone call ,he explained and i shrugged

I don't know maybe she got bored waiting for you ,I replied immediately gift showed up

Don't tell me you're drunk gift .

Hello big sister, I thought you were with Daniel. Why are you here?

Where is Bella?

She told me she wanted to use the bathroom.

Is she giving birth or what ?

I'll go check up on her i told leo and left

I found myself in the girls restroom

Where I saw two boys making out

Eww!

Disgusting

but there was no sign of her there

Where did she go?

I returned back to where my sisters were and good enough rebecca was back

Leo was still there

Did you find her? he asked as soon as I got there.

Obviously no, she's not at the restroom

Rebecca, did you happen to see Bella? I asked

No, I have been with Samuel the whole time ,have you tried calling her

Yes I have but her lines are switched off, leo replied .

Hold on, what are you guys saying, do you mean Bella is missing?

Now the story begins

Peace's pov

Annabel!

Annabel !

Annabel!

my sisters and I called as we walked around the scanty party,No one is here everyone left some minutes ago and we still couldn't find Annabelle

She didn't want to come to the party , we should have just left her at home

Now she's missing , Rebecca replied

Dad is going to kill us when he finds out, gift said

we can't leave without finding her ,peace said

Up until that time there was still no trace of her ,even after waiting for the party to be over

we still couldn't find her

Oh my god!

What are we going to do now? Rebecca said

Leo was also searching tirelessly for her and even gift who has been drunk suddenly became normal and joined in the search

Oh peace ,what are we going to do now ?she asked

I couldn't help but panic

There is no way Annabel will leave without telling us maybe she's pranking us, Rebecca said

What do you mean by pranking ?

she can't do that to us ,that will be so childish of her, it's late already

so why would she prank us , her lines is switched off

What kind of prank is that ? Peace said

I had this strange feeling that something was wrong .

We need to go home to let dad know about this, I think we will have to involve the police, peace said .

We all went home.

What do you mean you can't find your sister?

Dad quarried as we stood in front of him

Didn't you leave for the party together? Dad asked.

We did ,Dad .it was .....in the middle of the party she went missing ,peace replied

I was there when she said she wanted to make use of the restroom and that was it we didn't get to see her again, she never returned

So where is she? Dad half yelled and breathed heavily

We're sorry dad i muttered helplessly

Dad brought out his phone immediately

I will put a call through to some friends at the force ,let's just hope and pray she's okay

My sisters and I walked into the room cheerlessly and neutered she never wanted to go to that party, Rebecca busted into tears as she plonked herself on the bed

We shouldn't have forced her gift signed despondently and also sat on her bed while I remain standing

What could have possibly happened to her? where did she go ?gift asked narrowing her eyes

Rebecca kept on socking on her pillow.

The next morning

We go up so early cause we couldn't sleep

We couldn't eat too.

Rebecca was still crying on her bed

Guys we need to be strong for dad , peace said

Where is dad anyways ? Gift asked

We went to the sitting room to find him,

Dad was still making numerous calls

oh God !I pray with find her

Immediately the door opened and dad rushed in , his eyes beaming

I just received a call from the station, he said

bella has been found

what ?peace jumped

Where is she ?What happened to her? Rebecca and gift asked at the same time.

Peace's pov

We all sat in the hospital in front of Bella as she laid on the bed ....not looking weak anymore.

So luckily the doctor continued

There are no brain damage ,no internal bleeding, she is perfectly fine and so she's ready to be discharged today ,he concluded and Rebecca heaved a huge sigh of relief

Thank you so much doctor" I really appreciate"

Sure, you are welcome.

I will be in my office, The doctor said and left.

Bella, how are you feeling ?

Are you all right ?Rebecca asked holding her palm

Please you don't need to worry about me "i'm fine" like the doctor said she replied with a smile ..

Well obviously she looked fine without having any injuries except from a scratch on her arm.

The police luckily found her lying unconsciously by the road side.

You got us really scared bella ,gift grouse

What really happened? Dad asked

I..... I was kidnapped and we flinched

Kidnapped?Dad asked

yeah I was done making use of the restroom and using the washbasin, someone came up from behind and sedated me with a napkin over my nose and I passed out immediately.

I woke up and found myself in a strange dark room.I don't know what their plans were but ,miraculously, I escaped and ran for my life.
