"Go Sit."

I quietly nodded my head at Cynthia taking a vacant seat at the table. I stared at my feet noticing the worn-out slippers they have given me, I don't like them at all. The clothes I'm wearing are also not really my style, they are nice, yes but they are not mine.

This is not even the place, I spent my first night with Nicolas.

I miss my things, my shoes, my clothes, and my fucking laptop. I have worked hard for the life I wanted to live and I can't just let something take away everything I have.

It may say it's shallow of me, but I like materialistic things, I want my clothes to have my smell, the room I'm staying in to have my vibe.

A dark chuckle left me at the thought of the situation I'm in. I swear to god if I didn't do something quick I'll become psycho. I don't even have my phone on me,

"Don't for a second think anything about your life is hidden from me," I warned her dropping the file with her details in her lap.Instead of taking a look at it. she threw the file away from her acting as if it disgusts her. "There is nothing in that file that can lead you to that drive," she said calmly. I smiled taking in her frequently changing facial expressions, "You don't think I know that?" I took a step toward her fisting a rough hand in her hair, other at the side of her chair, closing the distance between us."I know someone helped you escape, I know you were not alone in America," she yelped as fear flashed her eyes which confirmed my accusation."or maybe you were never alone. you always had someone don't you?"

    CAN SEE MY DOWNFALL FROM SIX FEET ABOVE __I tapped my pointy red hells on the floor, looking around the house. The place is filled with glittery females and men dressed in cold dark colors. I noticed one in particular, she looks young around barely 18 I think.Ironic enough I wonder. To be seen makes people feel naked- and then some people actually strip naked, however still as strangers to the world. Everyone is caged inside a little box of mystery, secrets, and pain. I think all we ever want is something with the right key to let us free. I filled my tray with drinks and arranged a bottle onto it. "You look gorgeous, here have some water," I complimented and have her the water bottle to the girl dancing around these men. I have no idea what is wrong with all the people here, calling these girls names and saying really dirty things to her. These girls are artists and they are doing their job, an amazing one at that."Thanks, I-" Her mouth opened in refusal but before she can say

I mean it's not really bruised but there is pain. A long silence filled the car, only the voices of my uneven and his angry nostrils flaring were the voices in the car. What happened in there was nothing I ever expected to happen ever. "who was he?" my voice came out so hysterical I cringed. he clenched his jaw tightening his hold on the steering until his knuckles turn white. OH? so he is getting angry now? I glared at his clenched jaw. "Answer me.""Don't talk about him," he yelled out of frustration. "Are you kidding me? he fucking humiliated me in front of your Uncle while you stood there like a fucking statue." he turned his dark gaze to me. "Shut up," he yelled again. Asshole. I want to shout at him, ask him why he let that happen, why? instead, I closed my eyes keeping my eyes at bay. After

I remember my heart was in my throat when the doctor was checking Ayushi. All I could think about was how much I wanted her to live, I wanted her alive, I wanted her with me.

"What is he still doing here?" I half yelled expected for him to fight back but instead, he just sighed. "He is taking her with him."Over my dead body is that ever happening. "Myra," I yelled getting up from the bed. "Fuck, Ayushi. Slow down at least," he says but this time he doesn't stop me. I went straight to the guest room, where Myra was staying last just to find him in there. "Get away from her!"I pushed her back from him to me hardly.
