Emily

“Why does he keep doing this to me?” I asked myself. “I am totally affected by him and I know he knows it. He's just trying to get me to admit it but I won't–– I couldn't because I know I would get hurt.” I was standing inside the lady’s room, staring at my reflection in the mirror, remembering all that had transpired a few moments ago in the meeting with the board members. I was in there feeling nervous when I heard that revenue had dropped by two of our clients and it will continue to decrease if we lose more. This means that people, including me, will be out of work. No sales meant no money and no money meant no pay for employees which will lead to me being out of a job.

I was so nervous that my leg started to shake and that's when I felt it. A Large warm hand on my thigh. My body had immediately gotten stiff because I hadn’t

    EmilyRunning through the hospital doors, I stopped right at the desk and began shouting that they take me to my mother’s room. A nurse who was at the desk told me her room number and I ran into the elevator and began pressing the buttons impatiently. Bringing me up to the Emergency ward, I stepped off the elevator and ran right up to Melissa who was pacing the floor.“What happened?” I practically shouted at her.“She accidentally heard that you were kidnapped and she began sobbing. The next thing I know she was shaking vigorously and was foaming at the mouth.” Sinking at the floor, I began sobbing while wondering why bad things have to happen to good people. What did we do wrong? Where did we go wrong for things like this to plague us.” I didn’t know how long I was there, but I tuned out everyt

    Adam“Adam, I found out who has been stalking Emily,” James shouted as he came barrelling through the front door. Stopping short when he saw the detective in the living room.“Calm down James, sit down and let me know what happened.” Well, Fields and I went to the Bahamas, as there was where our search led us. We went to a house that was a bit secluded. When we went and knock an old elderly couple answered the door. We were a bit confused as that’s where we traced where some of the text has been sent from otherwise from in New York and Paris. We sat down with the couple and we asked them random questions like if they had any children and where they were. They told us they had a son and his name was Tim and that he now resides in New York.”“As soon as they said that name, I automatica

    EmilyI know it was wrong, but I couldn’t help myself. For the past month, I have been communicating with my stalker. He always messages me on an unknown number so I couldn’t trace it. Every day he would send me a message telling me how much he loves and adores me, and he cannot wait for the day we finally meet so I can see who he is and accept him. I would always reply with ‘I can’t wait to meet you’ or ‘I know you love me.’ I was playing a very dangerous game and I know if Adam knew what I was up to he would be upset.It had been two weeks since I have been back at work. I was still staying at Adam’s but I have been to visit my mom and Melissa a couple of times. My mom was getting worse by the minute, and it broke me every time to see her like that. To see her being weak and not being able to do anything. She keeps assuring me that s

    Adam“Adam, I just got word from Fields that there is a possible lead. I will have to fly out to Washington tonight so I could meet with him.” Finally, after a month of hearing nothing, there is a chance that this lead will actually be the answer that we have been looking for.“Okay, just keep me updated and let me know what happens and James has a safe trip.” Ending the call, I place the phone on the table as I sat back and closed my eyes. For the past month, James and I had been working like madmen to try and find out new clues, whilst keeping an eye on Emily, who seems out of it at times.

    EmilyBeing bored was an understatement as to how I was feeling at the moment. Used to being occupied whether at work or at home, I felt useless just lying in bed all day. The staff doesn’t allow me to do anything, if I tried to wash the glass that I had just used, I would be told by one of the maids that it wasn’t my job and that Mr. Jacob will be very upset if they allow me to wash it.Sighing, I pulled the covers from over my head as I picked up my phone and stared at the latest message that I had gotten from whoever had been stalking me. I never meant to hurt you, but you had left me no choice. Why is it that you can go on dates with a stranger but you won’t give me the time of day when I am the one who clearly loves you? Thinking back to last night, I could’ve di

    Adam“Emily, wake up please,” I cried out as I rocked her back and forth. Coming to a few moments later, she sat up groggily.“Where am I?” she asked, her voice coming out shakily.“You’re in my home in my bed, I found you passed out on the street with a gash on your forehead.” Putting her hand on her forehead, she winced and withdrew her hand and stared at it. She was still bleeding and I had asked Sophia to call the doctor and to also bring the first aid kit so I could dress her wound.“What happened? Did you fall?”“No, I was walking down the street, when I turned to reach in my bag, I realized I didn’t have it on my shoulders and the minute I turned around back I was
