Chapter 1 The Nightmare
I found myself running in a dark valley that didn't seem to have an end. I looked behind me, I was being chased by a group of man in black suits and sunglasses. Who wears sunglasses at night? I looked down at the new born in my arms. They were after my baby, I wasn't going to let them have her. I suddenly lost my balance and fell, using my body to protect my baby. Before I could get up, the men already surrounded me. I held my baby tighter to my chest, hot tears already streaming down my cheeks.
A man stepped in front of me , he was wearing a black button down shirt, first three buttons undone, sleeves rolled up revealing toned tattooed arms and a Rolex watch. He was also wearing black pants and corporate shoes, his hair tussled around, dark eyes. He stepped closer, looking from my face to my baby then back to my face. I held her closer. He squatted before me and smiled, revealing white pearly teeth, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
He tilted his head, studying my expression "You have some guts, I must say, taking my child and running away" he said calmly but I could see the brewing storm behind that facade. "You run a multi-million company, you don't do children, I was only protecting her" I spat back. "Protecting her from her father? Even if I didn't have a child in my to-do list, that doesn't mean you hide your pregnancy from me, run away and give birth somewhere else" he said angrily. "I didn't want her to get swallowed in your world, I want her to be a normal child!" I sobbed. "Well too bad for you cuz I'm here for my daughter " he said and nodded towards one of his men. The man stepped forward. Two other men held me down while the other man took my baby from me and handed her to that monster "Hey!! What are you doing? !! Give her back!! Noooo!!!" I screamed, my eyes already red and puffy from all the crying "you know what to do with her said while turning around and working away with my baby. "No please!! Don't do this! Give me back my baby!!! " I screamed before I felt the cold metal of a gun at the back of my head and before I could process what was happening he pulled the trigger.

I sat up from my bed abruptly, my hair sticking to my face because of the sweat. I inhaled and exhaled deeply, closing my eye for a few seconds. It was just a dream, it was just a dream. I put my hand on my baby bump, I was already 5 months along. I've been having this nightmares ever since I got pregnant pregnant. I slowly stood up from the bed and put my legs in my flip flops. I checked the time and it was just 3:45 a.m. I sighed, using my fingers to remove the hair stop to my forehead. Today was going to be a long day.
