CHAPTER 5

On getting to the city, Wendy drops off at the station nearest to the given restaurant. As she's walking she begins to think that the way to the restaurant is weird it seemed so secluded "how can it be a famous restaurant if it is located in such a place" she says to herself, she stops to check her phone and before you know it someone is grabbing her, a knife against her neck and strong arms around her pulling her into an even more secluded part of the street.

 It's cold and she feels pain everywhere, trying to stand she groans then hears a voice it's deep "that's what you get for running away from your problems girl, they always catch up to you" he says "you'll have to wait till my boss gives me orders" he tells her, "oh how I hope we can do anything with you I'll be more than glad" he says just loud enough for her to hear it then he leaves the room. It doesn't take long before she passes out again.

 She wakes up about 4 hours later, and she sees Perry in front of her. As if sensing the eyes on her Perry turns around "it's about time you woke up" she says and smiles "Perry! Thank God, how did you find me, you know what it doesn't matter right now, untie me so we can go" Wendy says as she feels a sense of relief, Perry starts laughing crouches down to her level and says " you're still so naive" the smile on her face getting wider "Don't you get it, I planned this." She says erasing the relief that washed over Wendy and replacing it with fear.

 "why?" Wendy asks "why are you doing this, why did you lie to me, why can't you just leave me alone" she says as she cries and yells, "why? Wendy have you forgotten what you did to me, you're actually asking me why" Perry says to her "Its been a while huh?" "ever since then I haven't been able to live normally anymore, and I check up on you, and you're doing so much better than me when you don't deserve it"

 Perry used to be Wendy's tutor in high school. She had been in a gang that stole valuables and brought Wendy into it later on, Wendy reported the group and so those in charge had gotten at least three years imprisonment. In present Perry had felt it Wendy's fault that they had to suffer, she couldn't get a job and couldn't make a life for herself so she blamed Wendy for it. "Because of you I can't live a normal life anymore, my mom died you know and I wasn't there to say my goodbye all because of you" Perry says with hatred in her voice, Wendy flinches and says "I'm sorry that you're mom's gone but that's not my fault and you were never living a normal life" "it all happened because you couldn't take it, why did you have to be so weak" Perry says "it was not my fault and we had it coming anyways. I also suffered the consequences of my actions and as for where I am today I worked my butt off for it, I worked hard to put my life back together, the fact that I could do it and you couldn't has nothing to do with me." Before Perry could make a reply the police had arrived and barged in, they arrested Perry once again and her accomplices were also arrested.

 It turns out as secluded as the area was someone had seen when Wendy had been kidnapped and closely followed them he had been the one to report to the police. On meeting him Wendy seriously thanked him for saving her life "I don't think saying thank you is enough, why don't I just treat you to a meal or something?" she asks "uh thanks but it's fine I think you should just get some rest it must have been a tiring experience for you" he replies "okay then I'll treat you some other time, if you'd give me your number" she says "please?" he then takes her phone from her hand and types in his number then dials. "what's you're name?" he asks as he hands her back her phone "Wendy, yours?" she asks "Andrew" he says "well I guess I'll see you some other time" he says as a taxi pulls up in front of them, "yeah, bye" she says as he leaves.
