~~Fiona’s POV~~
“Wake up b***h” I heard loud yelling of my mom or my kidnapper who had just thrown cold water on my face to wake me up. I looked at my kidnapper who had evil smirk on her face with a proud feeling.
What had she planned that day to made her smile like that?
“Go get to your room and get ready fast. Today we are having guests.” She ordered in extra exciting tone making me afraid. Last time when she had invited a guest at home that time it was him.
‘Don’t go there Fiona,’ I chided myself in a try to forget again about him.
I entered inside the bathroom with broken shower and water leakage problem. Shaking my head I had a quick shower after a little usual struggle. After wearing my baggy top with ripped five year old jeans I reached down stair to meet aunty.
“Hmm looking good” she scrutinized me from top to toe. “Now let's go up and pack your bag.”
Pack my bag?
I silently followed her to my room where she pulled out my used school bag from cupboard and threw it on my face.
“Pack your goodies in it”
I stayed there looking at her in confusion. The lady who rarely allowed me to step my foot out of house instead of school and café was asking me to pack my bag. Where was she sending me? Was she finally sending me to my real parents?
“I have asked you something Fiona,” she cried angrily glaring at me.
Quickly coming into action I packed my pair of cloth in my bag with my undergarments. I moved toward my study to put my books when her voice stopped me.
“You will not need your books where you are going.”
She moved toward my table and pull out forms of university from my hidden spot. My eyes widen looking at her. How can she know about this? I thought I was successful to hide it from her.
“What do you think I will not know your plan you little rascal?” she tore my dream in front of my eyes. I looked at her with teary eyes but who I was to say a thing to her.
Those were my admission and scholarship certificate for business school, Zurich. I had worked so hard to get them. I was always 4 grade student during my high school just so that I could get scholarship and then I got admission in Business school in sports quota. I was so happy when I had gotten letter two days back but now my kidnapper had so mercilessly tore it apart.
We both heard a knock on the main door and my kidnapper run away from my room happily to open the main door but not before warning me “get yourself and your bag down in one minute.”
As soon as she left the room I placed my certificates and degrees from high school in my bag in a hope to apply for school some other day. Maybe if I was lucky I could still get the admission in business school without the letter, maybe business school gave admission to me just by watching my certificates.
I also placed my favorite mystery novels written by ‘Emily Knight’ in my bag. I also pulled out my savings from the secret place which fortunately were intact. I also pulled out the locket which maybe my father has given to me during my birth.
I still remembered how I had fortunately stumbled upon this necklace when I was nine. I had thought that Nicole had gotten that for me but how wrong I was when I heard her talking with someone about the selling of the necklace. I had become so attached with the necklace within a day just seeing my name carved on it with diamond that for the first time in my life I did something wrong. I had stolen the necklace from Nicole depositing it to Jessica who had returned it to me in future.
Looking around I also found the card, my first and last card which I got when I was nine. I didn't knew who the person was to gave me the card but I knew that it had always brought a smile on my face, just reading the lines. I just wished to meet its sender one day.
I smiled when I once again when through the lines of the card.
‘Happy birthday sweet girl,
You are so beautiful. You don’t look beautiful with that sad face so just smile. I don’t know why you are sad but always remember to smile. If you will smile than God will also hear to you.
I wish that every wish of your life to be fulfilled, with a lot of love and happiness in your life.
Your new friend.’
After placing it in my bag, I looked around to see if I was not leaving anything behind me. Once satisfied I exited my room with trembling feet?
My kidnapper was so happy today. I had never seen her so happy before which had now made me afraid especially after knowing that she was never my mother and wanted to separate me from my father again.
“Here is my daughter Fiona, Mrs. Stone” I heard fake happy voice of my mother as soon as I descend down the stairs, to find her talking with another sophisticated looking lady who had an evil smile on her face.
“Are you sure she will be perfect for the reason I want her?” Mrs. Stone asked. “And she is the same girl whom I was searching from so long?”
“Yes. Off course” my kidnapper came closer to me and pushed me toward Mrs. Stone. “Fiona meet Mrs. Stone. From now on you will live with her and will do whatever she will say.”
I looked at lady in front of me whose smile increased after taking a look at me.
“I think she is perfect” Mrs. Stone said in her bitchy tone. “Come on Fiona let’s take you to your new house.”
I just stood there silently knowing well that my life was going to had a big change. I looked at my kidnapper whose eyes were dancing with happiness when Mrs. Stone opened a bag filled with some thousand dollars and gave it to my kidnapper.
“From now on she is all yours” my kidnapper smiled happily while taking the control over bag with money.
“b****y Bitch.” My kidnapper came closer to my ears. “Hope to never see you ever again and I will pray your parents never find out about your whereabouts.”
I looked at my kidnapper with tears filled eyes before Mrs. Stone pulled me out of the house.
“Don’t be afraid of me Fiona. I will not say you a thing as far as you will keep doing the work, I need from you,” I looked at her in shock as whatever she has said was in very calm tone totally different from the tone of my so called mom.
She called someone on her phone and soon enough a BMV stopped in front of us. I looked at the lady with shock. She must be very rich. First she had given money to Nicole and now she had a car not a car but BMV with a driver. She pushed me inside the backseat while taking her seat beside me.
“So you will be staying with me from now on,” she ordered and I nodded my head. “And you will be calling me aunty.” I again nodded my head.
“My family don't knows about you so when they would ask you about yourself then you will say your mother just died and I being a close friend to your mother has decided to be your guardian. Understood.”
“Yes aunty” I nodded my head.
“Last but not the least. You are not allowed to tell anyone that I have paid money for you. Not even a soul.” I again nodded my head.
“Good” she pulled me out of the car which had stopped in front of a mansion or we can call it a place. My mouth drop open looking at place in front of me.
Her home is quite big with a big garden and from outside only I can see that this home has more than 50 rooms.
“Trust me, you will enjoy your life in this house more than you have ever thought in your dreams till you keep following what I order to you,” I just nodded my head looking at house in front of me.
Where I had come? And what my life was going to show me that time?
Rubbing my face I entered in the house to start a new life.
Precap: New life in new home and meeting new persons.
