My Slave

Reason

It felt like forever, I was starving and weak. I felt my lips were cracked and every time I open my mouth, it hurts like s**t.

I was very dehydrated. I'm parched.

My mind was floating and I didn't know if I was dreaming. Am I awake or not?

I couldn't move as my back was leaning on the wall behind me. I also felt the stinging pain around my wrists. The chains were tightly wrapped around it.

Then I heard clicking sound of heels, I didn't know if I'm sleeping and just dreaming but yeah I guess, my eyes were shut.

My eyelids were shaking, they were tired and heavy.

But suddenly a hard splash of water thrown on my face made me out of my semi-unconsciousness. It didn't stop as it flowed directly to my face and it hindered me to suck air.

The water went into my nose and mouth as I felt drowning.

It didn't stop even if I coughed and moved my head, it followed me.

I felt dizzy and out of breath.

I knew it was Tiffany, she will drown me and let me die. It's for the better than torturing me because she slowly kills me.

As I said, I love her since we were in Middle school. Yes I was popular that time because of my voice and my looks. People said I was so cute that time and they like to hear me singing.

Many students admired me but despite the fact that I was famous, Tiffany was utterly my opposite. She was nerd and many students like to bully her.

I became her protector and everyone knew that she was my best friend. They questioned me but since I announced it, no one dared to bully her again.

I'm in love with her. She's an amazing girl and for me, she's beautiful. I believe she was and still is.

But the thing was she started to date this guy named Nick and it changed everything.

I didn't move anymore and the water stopped.

I coughed hard and I felt the pain inside my nose.

"Good evening again slave," when I heard her voice, my heart began to pound wildly in my chest.

I'm still happy to see and hear her even if she do this to me, I won't be mad at her.

"A penny for your thoughts?" I remained silent.

"Whatever. I bring you water and food," she pointed down.

I looked at it then I saw a bowl of water and a piece of loaf bread in front of me.

"Eat now," she commanded as she dropped the water hose on the floor.

At the drop of a hat, I complied.

First, I drank water. I didn't care if my wrists were hurt, I needed it. I drank like a dog but I couldn't care less.

Tiffany chuckled "You're like a dog. Where's the famous Erika now huh?"

Then I ate the loaf bread on the floor and just ignored her remark.

The loaf bread tasted so good and for me, this was the best loaf I've ever tasted.

After I finished it, I drank water again then I sat up leaning my back on the wall again. My wrists were aching because the chains were short, I just forced myself to bow down on the floor.

"So... did you find out why you're here?" Tiffany asked curiously.

I barely shook my head.

"Gosh, I didn't know that you're also stupid. Well I will say it anyway to remind you. I will not beat around the bush anymore. You... Stole. My. Boyfriend." She simply informed as a matter of fact.

I didn't react.

"You stole Nick from me! You seduced him to break up with me! You w***e! I thought you are my best friend but you just used me to be close to him!" Tiffany yelled angrily.

Oh. In that case... Yes, I did it.

Why?

Because I love Tiffany.

I couldn't take it anymore seeing them together. I was also dumb that time so I seduced Nick. He's a douchebag. He just wanted Tiffany for fun, he wanted to take her virginity.

So I seduced him, I didn't want him to take advantage of my love. That maniac didn't deserve her love.

He fell on my trap and he broke up with Tiffany. I dumped him after few days but Tiffany was nowhere to be found. She was gone, she didn't attend graduation ceremony.

I lost her that time.

I still remember her face when she knew that me and Nick were dating. She was hurt and it felt like I betrayed her.

I was supposed to confess my feelings to her but as I said she was gone before I could even make a move.

And now she's still holding that to me, crying over dirty spilt milk. I guess she really love that dickhead.

I laughed quietly "You really love him?"

"How dare you to laugh at me?" She strictly asked.

I shook my head, she's doing all this because of that guy. Now I could say, I don't deserve this.

"Anyway," her voice changed to normal. "I found Nick and he's single."

I glared at her "Don't you dare date him again!" I raised my voice, I didn't expect it. I raged just thinking that she will date that guy again.

"And what will you do? I will just get what's mine," she sweetly said then she picked a long whip on the floor.

"Five lashes for laughing and five lashes for yelling at me, total of ten lashes. That's your punishment for tonight slave, know your place next time," Tiffany suggestively said.

Oh no.

Then I felt burning sensation on my skin, it started immediately.

"One," she counted.

I'm on the thin ice, I'll be doomed.
