Excape

The room wasn't dark anymore as she struggles to open her eyes to accept her fate. Connie was fully awake and aware of her surroundings. She looked at the fire in pain. Same fire which the scary lady had thrown her clothes and almost burst into another round of tears but when she noticed the still and quietness of the room, she changed her mind. She can't cry any more rather she had to take action. She smiled to her self as she tried to stand up but turned into frown . Her head felt too heavy and ached. The second time she lifted her self up and rested on the wall near the table.

Connie tried to think of what's next. If she should look for away to excape or just remain there till she get killed. Her chin burner, her whole body was on fire. The cold of the night washed her as it suppressed the heat of the fire. She shivered as her eyes roamed around the room.

The room was hell but still looked amazing to her. For the first time she was in a scene like she always imagined just that she was the victim of torture and pain and not the other way round. She looked at the seat which was like a throne for the boss alone who was to watch every thing happen as they wish for it to. That was the seat the Lady sat and on that seat she was in charge same thing she watched on movies, at the very moment she wished she was the lady and the lady was her . She 'd at least pay her back in double fold all the pain she passed through. She 'd watch her beg and cry for her mercy just like she did . She would strip her off her clothes too. The sound of the charcoal shook her from her imagination and she quickly looked if any one was there but no one it was just the fire doing it own thing.

Something about the room brought an eerie feeling. She went closer to it it was a vault. She wondered why she hadn't seen it before as she examined it and she smiled as realisation struck . She quickly went to work with a purpose of not dieing in the hands of her kidnappers. The vault unlocked and so also the wall opened revealing an unseen door , she walked into it and it closed . It was an elevator which took her down the building and stopped below the building . She crawled out through a manhole cover in a street she barely know. As she walked around in the late quiet night , she saw very few people and vehicles pass. She observed the environment around her before she started walking. Occasionally she turns back to see if any one was coming after her or following her. When she had finally gone far with nobody stalking her , she felt at ease.

She looked at her self through the door of a cafe shop and almost burst out laughing. The over sized shirt she had worn could take at least five persons. At least she wasn't naked. She asked around about the area she was and found that her school wasn't far from her so she continue walking till she got to her school but she thought again that it was a bad idea. They wouldn't let her in and might even get into trouble.

Connie sat on the road side stranded and for the first time afraid to go home. She was scared of what awaits her . Her friends would have checked her already . She wrapped her legs around herself as she thought of everything that had happened. Every thing was because of one person. The same person who had forced himself in her life. Hassan. It's barely a month yet that she had accepted his proposal . What was she expecting, to have a peaceful life with a guy like him. Of course he 'd fulfilled his pledge to take care of her but taking care of her meant taking care of the bills. But he was a bully.

She yearn for more than he is . She couldn't deny he was handsome and any girl would sway around him but they don't add up.

Everyone tried to show her the formula that said 'Hassan and Connie can't work' but she said she could fix it . Sitting at the back of her school fence with the cold night breeze she believe their formula . Her heart hardened as she recur it. The torture, the pain ,the shame with tears emerging from her eyes she stood up knowing she had only one place to go and that's where she could at least be safe. She walked fast with her aching legs begging her to stop . Her heart racing with fear in her eyes she knew she couldn't turn back. Ali will yell at her for not going to him . May wouldn't forgive her but this guy is safe hiding there so why can't she be too.

She 'd find out the secret of the place. Hassan had suggested it to someone on phone unaware that she was listening which was the last time spent with them. Ali and May in their drunken state had engaged in a crazy dance leaving her alone to busy Hassan who wouldn't stop looking at his phone like his life depends on it. He did not even spare her a glance only ones had he and it was because her purple short gown had done it because he couldn't take his eyes of her cleavage. And when she thought she had him to he self he buried himself to phone and won't stop looking around the club like he was expecting some one. She tried to start a conversation and he brushed it off. Hell ! She thought the night was going to be the best. At least since she was going to give herself to him. Ever since he spoke about it and she declined she had changed. He just wasn't there or here.
