TRAFFICKED
ANA’S POV
I looked back to the man in black, sitting on the bed. He smiled at me, his teeth, all dark, it was clear he was a chain smoker. I knew immediately, I was done for but I still wanted to plead for my life. To appeal to their better conscience of they had any.
I pinned his eyes, tears flowing freely out of my eyes. He saw them but he was amazed by it instead. He stood up and pat my hair.
“Little girl you should have not offended anyone, you should have laid low, the world is a dangerous place, man’s did not tell you, no?” His accent was definitely not from these pard, sounding a bit Mexican.
It made the fear worsen because if I was leaving with Jim, does it mean I was going to Mexico.
My body began to shiver, the feat gripping me harder. I knew that they all hated me, especially Maria but I never her to go to this extent.
‘So I have been sold’.
It just unreal yet it was and I stare wide eyed at everyone begging them to please release me like it would be possible.
The man in overall black, let his hands leave my head and he made a sign to his men. The began to approach me, I moved back, falling down but I still tried to crawl away.
One of them, grabbed me, the other loomed over me and then his fists went for my skull. Immediately, it collided with my bones, everything went black.
…….
The ground underneath me was shaking and the sound of distant vehicles was playing on my ear. I felt hand upon me, touching me. I became alert immediately but I didn’t open my eyes, still trying to remember what was going on.
Slowly the memories began to return. Maria’s act on me, the man in over all black, that was when I remembered that I was sold.
The touch went under my shirt immediately, I sprang up do fast, my head hit a face. I heard a a sharp groan and that when I looked around.
I saw girl. Young girls, some younger than me, they were staring at me like I was a bit human.
I looked to my left and I saw a girl holding on to a broken noise. I realized immediately that I was the one.
“Am sorry, I didn’t…” I tried to touch the girl but she flinched away from me immediately.
I was also frightened by the way she reacted but before I could speak again, another girl had already talked.
“You don’t have to be like that, she didn’t mean it. She was frightened… we all are.”
I looked towards the voice and I was a red head and was dressed in rags like all of us in the container.
I moved to the girl. I was scared and she did not seem to be. She looked like she would could have the answer or my questions.
“Where are we please?” I asked her.
“We are in a container. A shipping container. It’s gummy that out side everyone things that they are carrying cargo but they are carrying people.”
There was mockery and sadness in her voice.
“How did you get here?” She asked me.
“My sister sold me to them. A man on lblack.” I said,.Shivering In fear.
The girl hugged me, tightly.
“We will live though this, don’t be so scared.”
We heard a scoff in the room. From a girl in a corner. She looked at us, her face swollen from so much crying.
“It will be okay? Are you kidding me? We are slaves now. They will use us reo anything they like. You are lucky, you are so lucky that you are beautiful. They probably use you as a s*x slave or sell you to brothel but ugly girls lie us will probably be harvested because no one wants to buy us.”
She was saying it and shedding tears. My fears got worse. I didn’t know when my tears began to flow again.
But the girl that held me, yelled out immediately. It shocked me and everyone else in the container.
“If you bitches want it accept your faith, that’s fine, but I won’t give up hope until am dead.”
She was so stern and so full of energy to live, it inspired us all some how. And the scars girls had a little strength.
I knew at that moment that the feeling of hole might diminish for many of us soon but still it was nice to feel like everything was going to get better.
But our joy was short lived because the vehicle stopped immediately. Our hearts and our voices stopped with it. Then we heard the mem talking and suddenly, gas burst into the container from the small air vents we had in the container.
We covered our noses but the gas was too much and slowly many of us began to slump. I held that mystery girl close to me and she held me too.
We tried to keep our eyes . open but the hass eventually made us black out too.
My eyes opened and body felt so sour. I tried to move but my hands could not budge. I knew immediately that I had been bounded. I managed to peer my eyes around the room. I could not find see anyone, all the girls, none of the were In the room
I could only see a light in the distance. Then two men began to appear from the light. They were whispering and pointing at me.
They kept coming closer and closer; I closed my eyes pretending to be asleep, praying silently that they would leave but they grabbed me and pulled me up. They dragged me towards the light. And immediately we went past the big curtain, my eyes widened.
It was a grand hall, full of chairs, we were standing on a podium and there were girls. The next thing I heard was.
“Number 29, sold”
I looked weakly and I saw them pick a girl from the podium and send her down to some one sitting among the crowd.
That’s when I realized… this is the main bidding;
