S O P H I A
It was around 8:30 afternoon when my shift was over, I was over, I went over to the kitchen of the maids and had dinner there, since I become a maid, I was no longer allowed to have dinner with them on the table
After I finished eating, I went to my room and I had the gun under the bed, I stated in bed and continued reading the book until I was bored.
(I wonder how my dad’s doing, he’s probably gone crazy looking for me.)
New York is a big city; people go missing every day.
******************
Five hours passed, and I fell asleep with the book on my chest, I was awakened by a loud door click sound, I looked up to see Chase standing at the door’s step.
He looked around and then at me, as if he was making sure I was still here, I didn’t say a word, I just looked at him, then he finally spoke.
“How’s your first day of work? “He simply asked
“Good, I guess … “I avoided eye contact; I heard his footsteps coming closer towards me.
“has anyone mistreated you? “He asked again.
(Alright, being nice didn’t suit him.)
“Yeah, how about you take a look in the mirror? “I pointed my finger at the mirror behind him, and he frowned.
“I’m locked in here, you kidnapped mee, I think that shows how much I’m being mistreated” I said as I stood up, challenging him.
“You should be grateful to be alive, other gangs would’ve… “he spoke right before I cut him off.
“Would’ve already killed me, yes, I know, I heard this sentence like a hundred times from last night till today “I mocked him “but me being alive and trapped here isn’t better”
I stepped closer to him, trying to get his affection.
“Look, I have dreams, please, I can’t just waste them here, waste my entire life! I promise I won’t tell anyone, what’s good in that for me anyway! “I stated, with a pleading look on my face.
He didn’t say anything, instead he looked up and down at my face, then he turned around heading to the door.
“My father will look for me “I said, I quickly covered my mouth realising what I’ve just done.
(Did I just expose myself about me having a dad? Fuck.)
He turned to see me again, with a smirk on his face, he stepped back until I hit the bed.
“Don’t worry miss pierce, we already called your father, who you by the way lied about him and said he was dead, we told him you were on a school trip and the returning date is unsealed, and we told him that all the trip payments were on the school and he has nothing to worry about, and also, we said that the place you went to has no signal so he doesn’t have to expect any calls from you” he explained, frequently.
What the hell!? How did they do that!? How did my father even believed them???
“My father would never believe such a thing, a school trip. This is not high school “I protested, refusing to believe my dad believed such a tired lie.
“Not a school trip exactly, what do you call it? Ah yes, internship training s**t, something like that, you do the maths “he stated.
“Oh my god, how did you – “I was cut off by him again.
“How did we know about your father? Simple, we already did our searches about you the moment you told us your name, it wasn’t hard” he said as walked around the room.
“Sophia pierce, a twenty-one-year-old medical student, you live with your father who’s a bank accountant, you work as a waitress during your free time for extra money, so you won’t have to rely on your father all the time “He stated and looked at me while saying the last sentence.
I stood there shocked; how did he know all those stuffs?
“Smart move, saying that you don’t have a family, I respect your intelligence, I really do, you’re unlucky you were caught up with me though “He said again, and I looked down, feeling total embarrassment,
“Goodnight Miss, Pierce” he said as he left and locked the door again.
I got so mad and hit the bed board with my feet
“asshole “I yelled, not loud enough to be heard.
But I made my mind at the moment,
I escape, tonight...
**************
Three hours passed since my little encounter with that beast named Chase, I put the side of my head on the door and tried to hear anything, then I took a sneak from the hole of the lock, not that it really did anything.
I took my chances, I grabbed a hair pin that I luckily found in the room, I’ve seen people doing it a lot in movies and also documentaries.
I kept struggling with it for about 10 minutes, until surprisingly it opened, I grabbed the door carefully not to make a sound.
I pulled out my head and looked right and left, the floor was empty, and the light were off.
I grabbed the gun and held it in my hand, I walked out of the room, slowly and silently.
Shiver was running though my entire body, god knows what they would do to me if they caught me.
I got downstairs, paying attention to all sides, I finally reached the bottom, there I saw a bodyguard.
(Problem)
I wondered how the hell I’m gonna get rid of him until my eyes caught a plastic glass on the closet next to me.
(So much of housemaids)
I grabbed it and threw it away in the other direction, that caught his attention, and he walked straight to the source of the noise.
I took my chance and walked fast toward the big door, just before I got to open it, I felt a strong arm holding my hand that had the gun a hand covering my mouth.
“You are in a big trouble young lady” a voice whispered to my ear.
(s**t)
(It was him).
