(Tuesday 16th September)
I woke up earlier today, but I did not stand from my bed as my mind kept drowning me into a trace the type, I cannot come out from without help, thoughts like...
The morning came faster than I expected today marks the third week since I was saved from my captors, next week will mark a month since then, but still I have not heard anything from the police, not from my parents. If there were politicians as they claimed they would be influential and gotten to the bottom of this, mmmmm, or maybe they are part of the "how dare you, why did this thought cross your mind, how many times have I told you never to doubt your parents" my sub tells me as she arrogantly moved me far from my trance.
Well I still don't think I can trust anyone.
Today was pretty weird it has been a long time since I talked with the maid that cleans my room, very one was lazy and sluggish Evert since my parents left. The maids hardly cleans the house, they just do touch ups and that's all for the day.
I stood up and went straight to the kitchen, I did not bother my self to bathe as I was very hunger.
"Morning you all" I said as I entered the kitchen
"Morning ma" I heard voices said at the back as I did not pay attention.
All the house helps were seated as they were having breakfast, in the kitchen I took a plate and joined them, this was not what I usually do as I eat mostly in the dinning room.
"So what were you trying to tell me the other day" I started as I was particularly talking to a particular person
There was silence as she looked nervous.
"Tell her" the old lady sitting close to her said
"Ma...a...a....AA..." She was scared.
"You know you can trust me, I won't tell mom"
I guessed that was why she was scared since mom was in the room the other day.
"Yes ma, a lady comes to hear to look for you"
"And who does she identify her self to be"
"A., ..., ma we did not ask"
"Oh, I see. If she comes today let me know, I think I should have a word with her"
Who could she be, its obvious that she is not anxious to see me if not she had kept on trying.
"But she is an old lady"
"But honestly duo, if any of you know anything about her please speak up for our own safety".
I guess they knew exactly who the woman was but still did not want to tell me.
" Well ma the woman used to...." She started talking again this time she was scared, and I could tell because of the way she shivers.
"What is wrong with you?"
I stemmed to care more about her than what was coming out of her mouth.
Come to think of it, she was not that older than me, she was around twenty-one or twenty-two if I supposed.
"Ma nothing much, just cold"
She answered, but I think she was scared there was a woman standing inside the kitchen and I did not notice until she pointed it for me and I turned back to see for my self.
"That's enough talking for now, go inside your room"
What?, who does she think she is to order me around, my parents own this place and the last time I checked I was in charge of this house.
"What did you say?" I asked trying to put her back in her place.
"I said go to your room before I lose my temper on you, am I understood" she said while she was yelling at me.
"Excuse me?" I asked.
"Umm, honey I know my place in this house, but I don't think you know yours"
She said as she hissed and parked the dishes from the table even if I was not done eating, it was as if she was programmed to do so.
By this time the maids and house helps already left to save their dear lives.
"Well I don't think you like your job dearly cos." She cuts me off before I could even speak.
"I what don't even start me off with this your nonsense today" she shouted at the top of her voice and was scolding me as if I stole one million dollars, and even if I did, why did she care.
I stood up and left for my room as she instructed, I do not want trouble with this bitch.
I was so angry and embarrassed by what she did that I stormed upstairs, I walked fast and faster as I got to my door steep and opened the door angrily, I jammed the door, and it made the modest noise I have heard from this house, I keyed it and sat down on the floor. It did no take long for tears to drop from my eyes like water.
I was crying now and later this tears turned to gasp for air, my lungs were clouded with fog and I started lisping for air, one gasp after the other.
I was not walling, but I was confused as who would want to annoy their bosses daughter, except she was not their bosses daughter, I was tired, and now I am tired of this life that I am living.
Who is she?, why did she yell at me?, these things started disturbing me, as I was unconsciously stressing my brain, I started having flash backs.
It was me again with a different dress I was standing with dad in the middle of a no where there were no houses around, and I did not seem happy.
Dad on the other hand looked scared as if he was been watched or something like that, I was holding a girl which we were bought dressed in the same clothing style, but these cloths were made of rags. We were both crying and whaling as we were been moved towards the city and then......
"Knock knock"
I heard a knock on the door and this made me wake up from my dream.
"Who is it?" O asked with a sad tone.
"I am here to apologize for what I said earlier" the woman in the kitchen said, and I looked at her with disgusted eyes as I stood up to open the door.
"So now you have, so goodbye"
I said as I locked the door again.
"Will you like me to show you some things"
"Like"
"Open the door sweetheart" she said with a sweet tone, I did as she asked.
"What?"
"Do you want to meet the woman who comes to look for you once every month"
"Who?"
"There is a woman who claims she knows you an she comes to look for you every day now"
" Why do you want to help me?"
"I am sorry, of the way I scolded you you are such a nice girl, it's just your mom asked me not to allow the maids whisper things to you".
" Okay"
"Come with me" she asked I did follow her to the kitchen.
We Went past the kitchen and continued moving turns out there was a store connected to the kitchen, it was a long way as she was actually taking me to the basement as it was dark and dusty.
I quickly pick a cooking knife from the floor of the kitchen and hid it in my bra. I followed her slowly as I gave her a gap.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing ma" I said as she noticed how I gave her some gap.
We continued moving, and she stops as soon as she saw a wall. She moves a lock, and it opened it was actually a door, she moved in as she switched on the lights and I followed in.
"What are these?" I asked as she handed over a box to me.
"Open it"
She instructed which I did, and I found out that there were more pictures of me and that Maryam of a girl.
I did not know what made me turn back, but I needed to see this for my self. It was my cloths and things they kept there. And I could tell because of some pictures showed, and it could only have been mine because I was the only child in this house and the only one who?.
"Habiba, habiba help" these were the last words I heard as I left this world for the greater beyond. No I just passed out.
