>* Keep on believing! It'll be alright! ****** Happy 30 chapters, guys! *---- Author's POV ---" The food was not that bad though. " A girl named Katherine commented when they had finished eating." I guess... "" I can't help but wonder what will happen to us. " Liliana reasoned frightfully." Do you usually follow up with the news of the fates of the previous girls that were kidnapped. "" No... I don't. "" What about you, Nona? " She turned to another girl who had chubby cheeks." I do... And I won't pray for their fate to be the same as ours. "" But guys, I heard that some of the girl's that were kidnapped were released on ransom. " " And others weren't, right? "" Yeah... So what happened to the others? "" Killed... Sold off... I guess. "" Um... I just wish I had just skipped school the other day. "" Same here's... At Least I won't be in this miserable condition. " " Guys... There's no use wishing.

>* Instead of asking, " Why is this happening to me? " Ask yourself, " What's this teaching me? *****The long wait was finally over, when the old wooden door was pushed open from outside.And three men walked in.They were the same men as before... Just that this time, they didn't come with food as the girls had expected but rather, Fruits.It was a red fruit similar to an apple... Though the men told them that it was an apple.Some of them doubted it was really it, as it looked a bit smaller and redder than normal apples. In the end the girl's were given two apples each.The men left the girls immediately after the distribution was over. " Do you think the apples were all washed? " A girl asked." You've concluded that they are apples already? How sure can you be? "" Well... They look like apples so they must be apples, yes? "" Um... "" They are wild apples. " Angelina replied." Oh... "" But how come you know so much, Angel? Were you born here? " A girl questioned sha

32* Don't lose hope... It'll be fine. No situation is permanent, remember? *****Somehow, though, the girls pretended to sleep... They also fell asleep.So none of them were aware of what transpired while they were asleep.All they knew was when they woke up.. some of them were missing.And after a rough calculation... They realized that about thirty one of them were missing.*Flashback*The men opened the door and were quite ecstatic seeing that the girl's had all fallen asleep. " Um... These girls are really very pretty. "" Indeed... Especially those ones over there. " Casanova said, pointing to a set of girls who were sprawled at the edge of the hut. " Let's get them. " One said and the others nodded. They got to work carrying out the girls and placing them in the truck waiting outside.After the required twenty were done, the truck left. " We've got ten more to pick. " " I'll be taking two. " Rodger said. " Why would you take two? What about us? "" That's not my busine

>* Be you. *****That night,The girl's weren't given dinner...Despite waiting up patiently, they all ended up disappointed. " I guess we are being made to realize that we are in captivity and not in the comfort of our homes. " Simbia, a tall girl said, lying down on her side. " Um... "" Do you guys realize that we are still in our uniforms? " Her words prompted them to stare down at themselves, and only then did they realize that they were still in their uniforms.How could they have forgotten that? " I wonder if we'll be allowed to step out of this room someday and get a good bath. "" Perhaps. "" I still find it difficult to believe that I haven't had a bath in forty eight hours. "" Same here. "" I really hope we get our freedom someday... As I am honestly losing hope already though it's just the second day. "" Me too.

>* There will always be a way. *****---- Mia ----I didn't know when I actually fell asleep...All I knew was, I found myself in the dream Land. I was in a very large cage... Similar to a bed cage as I could see what was going on outside.The cage was hung up in such a way that I could view everything going on beneath.I was alone in that cage... Tied up and looking so malnourished and weak. " Where are the others? " I thought to myself that I couldn't be alone. Even in that dream... I found myself thinking about the others.I guess it was then I realized that I have indeed gotten the leadership trait in me. At that point... I heard a loud scream which prompted me to stare down.And when I did... I was totally disgusted by what I saw...The girl's were being mishandled...While some were gang raped... Others were bleeding severely due to cruel beating and pain. " Where's Clover? " I thought to myself... Then I heard my Bestie's scream from ahead and I looked... I gasp

>* It'll be fine. ****** Happy 35 chapters, Readers! *---- Mia ----I woke up with a start.I was literally shaking at the tension of the dream I just had. Though I was out of the dream world... The scenes I saw and everything and everything was still as vivid in my memory as ever.I sat up and laid my back to the wall as I stared at the sleeping bodies all around. I checked my wrist watch and realized that it was only twelve in the morning.Which means I only slept for three hours before waking up now... " Will this dream come true? " I thought fearfully. One thing I have noticed is that my dreams always come true... Though it might not be as exact as I dreamt it... But still it will." What if? " I just couldn't imagine the dream coming true...I just can't... I just couldn't..." What can I do Lord? I feel so fearful and scared... I just can't... I just can't...

Perhaps I was born unlucky, was one thing I always thought.Maybe I was...But then I met Mia.And she was like the perfect one.She was all I ever wanted to be and could ever be.Smart, intelligent and Godly.Not only that, she was also from a wealthy family and had such lovely parents...Her parents treated her like a little princess...too.At first I couldn't understand why this was so...

More than I could ever be. Mia changed my life I must say.She pulled me to Jesus.I was a Christian... Right from day one of my life.But...

Dressed in a Royal ball gown which was specially designed for her by a French designer. Carlos Luther who was well known for his stunning designs. Mia looked more like a Queen herself than a noble.

Not only because of your dress but also that lovely smile hanging up on your lips. " Clover who was now a month pregnant couldn't help, saying as she stared at her reflection in the mirror.

>* You are beautifully and wonderfully made by God. *****---- Mia. -----" Then it was your character that made me stay. " He continued while I listened. " But most people believe I am too proud. " " You aren't, Mia. They only think that way because they are envious and couldn't get what they want from you. "" Um... So what gave you the motivation to stay even when I tried pushing you away? " I thought on the not so good days, when all I just wanted was for him to get out of his life, I was tired of him following me around like a puppet. Though I liked him as a friend, I didn't want him too close as I didn't want to have any sort of relationship with a guy... And so. " Vision and love. "" Meaning? "" I got the confirmation I needed that you are the one destined for me. And I was also in love with you, this both gave me the motivation to stay. " " Oh...

" I could see the emotions in his eyes as he spoke. " Do you believe that? " He inquired slowly when I was silent... " That I won't hurt you? " Though my mind screamed that he would hurt me, my heart spoke otherwise. For some reason, my heart believed he'd never hurt me. " I do. " I managed to say at last. " Good. " He pulled me to himself once again and embraced him tightly. I simply stayed there not knowing how to react. I was feeling a bit comfortable in his embrace much to my amazement. Shouldn't I be feeling disgusted or something like that? Yet... I was feeling comfortable. " I really can't wait for the day you'll scream out loud t

It's been five whole years since the incident happened and during those five years, I must admit I had gone through a lot of growing up. My faith had been tested and tried multiple times and I came out stronger and more faithful than I was. My Lord Indeed did what he promised... As there hadn't been an brutality. After our trip to the Maldives... I began working on the project which was titled, " Eradicating Teenage Abortion. " Although, I knew that it would cause a lot of controversies... Yet, I never knew it will do that to such a level that it would get to court. I could vividly recall what happened that day, when the case was being presented in court.

But now thinking of it, I wondered why that happened.What's going on? I thought to myself. " The dishes in this resort look very tasty. I bet they'll just be as tasty as they seem. " Clover's words interrupted me from my thoughts. " Hm... I think so too. " Staring at the vast beach I found myself pondering on just how great and marvelous the Lord truly is... To have created all of this. " You know, Angel... I find myself wondering why we often doubt the Lord. ``It felt like Clover was thinking the same thing as I was as she literally answered my thoughts. " Why do you say so?

I still couldn't get the images of the brutality happening just a floor below out of my head. I could literally hear screams of innocent baby's begging for their lives... Yet there was none to save them. The young mother's who should be defending the rights of her innocent baby are being brainwashed into thinking, it's not a child but actually a bunch of non living tissues. It sucks... Really, it does. I wish there was something I could do about it... Anything?But I couldn't... I guess I am just as helpless as everyone else. " You aren't helpless, Mia...
