C32 The cabin. Man

Dark night at the cabin.

It was late and dark at the cabin.

Xhenia dozed off and when she woke up, she cried, she hoped for a nightmare and she will wake up soon.

She felt the dryness in her throat and she was so thirsty.

She exhausted all her energy screaming for help.😢

Help! help🙁! , she tried again. Her voice was hoarse and at that moment she realized, nobody is around. It’s too dark anyway👀.

She tried again to untie🤔 herself, but she couldn’t. She tried so hard, and in the process her skin started chafing. She felt the burning sensation on her skin and screamed as loud as she could. Her voice so hoarse, she cried out in pain.

…..

Outside, she heard footsteps. Than she saw a flashlight.

Hello, hello is someone out there!!!! ? Someone please help me!

Soon the cabin door opened.

Who’s there. Where are you?

A young male voice coming from a distance.

I’m here, I’m here., please help I’m tied up.

She saw the flashlight heading towards her.

Please help me please help me! Xhenia cried.

Mam are you alright?

Please untie me. Please.

Sure, are you alone here? The male reached for his pocket knife in his backpack.

I don’t know, please hurry. Xhenia couldn’t stop crying. She was just so thankful for the help.

Than she heard footsteps and the person was walking so fast.

Someone is coming. Someone is coming

*bang*

Xhenia could t see what was happening. But she heard a gunshot. Very close by.

Her eyes big,

No....

No.......

The flashlight fell from the boys hands

No…….. NO….! You bastard you killed an innocent boy. How could you.

*doof*

Xhenias head zooming,

She was hit by the person with the gun.

Blood flowing for her head in her eyes. Which make it more difficult to see,

……

Xhenia lost consciousness again.

By dawn she was awake again.

She didn’t know what time it was. She had a terrible headache. .

From a distance she saw her handbag. She tried to reach for it by stretching out her legs.

Next to her was the torch. She looked around the cabin to see if the place is familiar, but instead she saw the body of the young boy right in the corner of the cabin. He was dead.

She started to cry. They killed him 😭😭😭😭

She tried again to reach for her bag. But it was too far. She turned her body to reach for the torch.

She got hold of it and switched if off.

There was also a stick which she could grab with her feet if she can reach it.

So she gave it a try. With 4 attempts she got hold of it.

She only had one shoe on. So she kicked the other one off. With both feet she grabbed the stick to use as and extention to get her handbag.

She struggled but she couldn’t give up. After several attempts. She finely looped the stick through the handles of the bag. Slowly she brought it closer to her body.

Now to get it behind her so her hands can find something to cut herself lose.

She struggled and struggled. Xhenia felt the pain inn her abdomen so bad. That she crunched on her teeth. Trying to fight the pain.

Oh please, I can’t lose my baby.👶

Xhenia cried😭😭😭. She decided to rest a little.

After a few minutes. She attempted again to get the bag 👛closer to the hands.

This time she got it right

She stopped and stayed quiet to listened carefully to the sound she hear.

Quickly she tried to hide the bag👛. With her legs.

Helo! Someone help me please.!!!!,

Suddenly a rabbit🐰 made its appearance in the cabin.

Xhenia sighed with relieve. Because she knew whoever brought her here must be somewhere. Watching who’s coming and going.

She lifted her body from the ground and pushed the bag👛 closer to the pole with her bum.

Now that the bag is in reach, she fiddled in the bag👛 to find something like a weapon✒️. She only got nail clippers. But

She found a bottle of water🍶.

How am I going to drink this. She wanted that water🍶 so badly.

Soon she heard footsteps🦶.

Her eyes👁️ got so big. Xhenia was scared to death.

In the doorway was n tall man standing.

He looked big and he was surely one the men that kidnapped her. But he was dirty and full of beard.

Hello miss gorgeous.

So beautiful.

He took a dirty cloth from a bucket of water to wipe her face from the blood.

Please help me. Please don’t do this to me..

Ha ha ha ha, the man laughed uncontrollably.

Why should I help and let you go?

PlEase don’t do this. Why you doing this.?

I’m doing this cause it’s my job. Ha ha ha ha. I’m getting paid for this.

I can pay you more. Please I have money I can pay you more.

Howw much more. Huh how much more?

The man Got furious.

Whatever you earn, I can double it. Even triple it if you’d like. Please just let me go.

Ha ha ha ha

You reckon?

Please sir. Please let me go.

Shutup!!!! He burst into anger.

Who gave you this bag? He kicked Xhenia in the ribs. Causing her to lose her breath.

Xhenia coughed.

The pain was unbearable. This time she rather wish it was a Lupus flare instead of this trauma she is experiencing.

Do u know everybody is already looking for me?

She tried to act brave.

I know, it’s all over the news. And mam Nina ain’t happy about it.

Can I please have some water. 🍶

The man went to the dirty bucket picked up a can and scooped water for Xhenia.

I have water. I just can’t reach it because of my hands being tied being my back.

He looked at her. Then he looked at her bag.

He grabbed the bag looked through the contents. And decided to tie her hands in front.

He losen the rope, and as Herr her hands was free she only tried to stretch it a little. She k ew attempting to hit this man, will only make things worse. So she obeyed his demands.

You done stretching your arms?

No, please just a few more Stretches than I’m good. She took her water bottle and took a few sips.

Now that she barefeet. She didn’t even know where she is. So running will make things worse.

Can we just chat a for a While. Without me being tied to a pole please. You can tie me right before you leave

The man looked at her suspiciously. I don’t trust you. What are you planning.

Nothing nothing. I’m just trying to have a conversation with you. I can see that you lonely too.

Are you staying here?

Yes.

How long, Xhenia walking to the door

Hey, what are you doing?

Nothing nothing. Just reaching for the crate to sit on.

Your white suit is already dirty.

I’m not trying to safe my suit, the concrete I’m sitting in is very cold and hard .

Xhenia held her tummy and the man noticed she had pain.

Are you pregnant?

She looked at him, a little scared to say yes.

Yees. But please don’t tell mam.

The man looked at Xhenia and couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.

This man stayed in the woods almost his entire life. The cabin weren’t his home but he used it as a cover when it rains.

The 2 started talking and got to know each other.

Th man liked Xhenia. But hee also knew how crazy Nina could get.

Will you help me escape please? I promise I will look after you..

No no. Mam is crazy. She will kill both of us.

How do you know mam.

The man looked at Xhenia, and his eyes filled with tears.

She is my sister.

Now Xhenia was very disappointed. And knew that this man won’t help her escape. She needed to make a plan.

Come to the pole i have to go.

Please I won’t leave. I don’t know the way back to the city.

You think I trust you? You think that we are friends?

Come.

Xhenia got up. Picked up the crate. And walked towards the man.

*bang*

She hit the man as hard as she could with the crate and ran.

Barefeet.

She ran and ran and tried to hide behind a tree.

She than decided to climb the tree. That way he will pass and she will maybe see the city from the top of the tree🎄.

Her foot was already bleeding when she stepped on a branch.

She sat quietly in the tree🎄. When the man ran right passed the tree.

So she decided to climb higher and higher.

When she saw the city🌁 from Th tree she knew she had to travel this journey barefoot🦶 in her own.

She tried to get down from the tree, she heard lots of footsteps and Nurse Nina’s voice🗣️.

She decided to stay put.

You idiot. How on earth could she get away when she’s tied up to a pole. I told you my enemies are your enemies. My friends are your friends. Is that understood.

The man just nodded as if he was obliged to obey Nina’s orders.

Nina send the men🚹 In different directions to look for Xhenia.

So Xhenia waited. And wait for the night.

.

She tried to make herself comfy on the branches than the pain in her abdomen striked like lighting through her heart.

Please don’t let me lose my baby.

Please don’t let me lose my baby.
