A night after the incidence…

Cherry was awoken by the sound of a heartbeat monitor, she tries to understand how she got into a hospital instead of rotting in the dirty cabin with James. And speaking of James, Cherry jerks up with fear gripping her chest, but she was pinned down by someone.

“It’s okay Cherry, it’s just us.” Came Rex’s smooth voice.

Cherry’s eyes were still wide and searching the whole place for the monster that kidnapped her, not fully settled with the people around her.

"Cherry, breathe..." Maria spoke softly beside her. She relaxed knowing Maria was with her, and soon asked.

“What am I doing here?” Her eyebrows creased.

“You are in a hospital, don't worry, you are safe. Everything is alright, Kelly just want to get an ultrasound of the baby.” Maria jumps in before anyone said something to scare her.

“Why? Is something wrong with my baby? Did James do something to my baby?” Cherry fought against Rex’s hands that was placed on her shoulders to keep her down.

    Inside Maria’s apartment… Maria gladly welcomed Cherry into her big apartment and stepped aside so she can take in the size and beauty. Cherry was astonished to see such a beautiful place, it made her doubt Maria owned it herself. “It’s beautiful-” Cherry commented in astonishment. “Thank you.” “Seriously, I’ve never seen such a big apartment before?” Rex grunts disapprovingly behind them, and they look at him. “What’s so funny mister billionaire?” Maria asked playfully. “Just that… my mansion size can’t be compared to the size of your girly apartment. For sure, Cherry will like it here because it’s girly designed but not suitable for movements.” He waves off Maria apartment as nothing. “Really? If it’s so great like the great owner why shouldn’t it be the first choice for its secondary owner?” She threw back at him. “Are you done because I don’t like it here.” Rex replies. “You don’t because-” She paused to look at Cherry staring at them quietly. “Just leave if you want to.”

    A week after the incident… Rex woke up feeling lonely and cold, his mood was sourer than rotten eggs left in the refrigerator for weeks and nothing on the television, not even the daily newspaper can cheer him up. As usual, he gets ready for work and Taylor serves him a light breakfast of bread and coffee or a bowl of noodles, which he could not touch. Taylor noticed the slowness and distant look in her boss’s eyes, but was unsure how to present her question of concern. At some point she made little noises to grab his attention and saying a little ‘anything else sir?’ hoping for a command, but Taylor got nothing until… “Can you stop with the movements?” Rex finally spoke out after minutes of deafening silence. “Sir?” Taylor paused from going to the shelves above the kitchen sink. “The constant movements is giving me a migraine, can you please walk slowly and not constantly shuffling about.” He grumbled lowly. “And- stop the clanking noise.” He said irritably. “Yes sir…” Taylor r

    Somewhere outskirts of NY…Susanna took a mini vacation from a small town just outside of New York to kill the chase and buy some time, because she knew Rex already suspected her of the plot against Cherry and her recent absence might give him the hint. With James and Anna gone, there isn’t a soul that knew what she had done or knew where she was hiding, and sooner she will have to move out of the motel to cover up her tracks. Susanna was enjoying a box of dry cereal while relaxing loosely on the couch in her rented motel room, and watching the news happening in So-Ho. Nothing exciting seem to be happening on the current station so she shuffles through other local channels expecting to see bad news about Cherry’s kidnap, but she got nothing. Susanna hated it and thought the news purposely did not want to reveal anything because of her rich ex-boyfriend. Unable to cope with the distaste, she got up from the couch to make something for herself in the kitchen, when the calm voice of a r

You know what kind of problem you are inviting kid?.” Rex leans forward on the table.“I swear I wouldn’t dare come up with such fake news. I know what I saw and I can prove it.”“Then prove it! I can’t waste my time listening to a teenage blabbing what comes from her mouth!.’“I wasn’t the only who witnessed it that day. My friends were also present the day of the murder!.”“Then why did it take you this long to speak up?” Rex spat.“Because we were all afraid! Susanna’s father works with the government and we were scared of getting into trouble if the wrong people found out.”“Susanna? How is Susanna involved in this?” Rex asked. His heart began to pound in his ears thinking Susanna is the mastermind of all the games playing.“She’s involved because it was her who killed Ann!.” The girl confessed.“You need to leave.” Rex stood up from the chair
