Meanwhile...
"I'm back my darlings" I heard that despicable man say
"What took you so long?" My mum asked
"I had an issue with the water today, but everything's fine now. Drink up and I will be back later in the afternoon to give you lunch"
"Won't you untie us as usual?" I asked
"I would but I'm not here to keep an eye on you, but I'm going to get some one real quick to come watch you, I have to go tell the neighbors you're safe" He smiled and turned off the switch, before walking out. He always does that so we don't try anything
I sighed as I stared at where my food was supposed to be in front of me, it looked delicious the last time I saw it but I couldn't eat it without help.
"Mum I'm so hungry" I whined
"He'll be back to feed us. Let's scream help before he comes back"
"Help!!" she started
"Help!!" I continued
and we kept on shouting until I finally gave up
"Mum it's no use. No one's going to come"
