It's been six months since the abduction of Angela Nadi and so far, no one knows anything. No one has seen anything or heard from someone about Angela.
Money they say cannot buy everything but, the Agrestes' are wealthy, they have enough to feed the nation.
Why then can't they find Angela?
Why is no one coming for her?
Where is she?
What is going on?
It's been six months since Angela's abduction and six months since Rose's wedding. Six months is not six days and definitely not six weeks.
It has been six months since she came to live with the Agreste.
It has been six months since she started hard labour which her mother in-law label as social Services and six days she's been in police custody.
It has not been easy for the poor soul.
She has nothing to do with Angela's disappearance.
She was just caught in the middle of something she knows nothing about.
She've gone from living an average citizen's life to hard labour and now held in custody as a suspect.
'This is not the plan'.
'i didn't know the Nadi's have a daughter called Angela until the wedding day'
'how can i kidnap someone i don't know'. 'kidnapping someone from a wealthy family requires tactics and money which i do not have'. Rose thoughts exactly.
She knows nothing about this accusations labeled against her. The world is going crazy for Angela.
Reporters flood the station everyday like hawks waiting for their prey.
They want to strike interviews and get a glimpse of little Rose.
They act as if the news they air is not enough, they still want to take her down.
"Rose Agreste?" came a voice from outside her holding cell.
"That's me" she answered turning over on the small mattress provided for her. A police man and some guy whom she recognized as Mr. Daniel's friend were standing outside her cell. She waited as the policeman led her out to the counter where she signed some papers and took her belongings.
"You should consider yourself lucky" was the last word she heard before they left the station.
The ride home to the Agrestes was quiet and awkward. There was no discussion, no music and no stops. It was just the sounds of the engine and other cars driving by.
For Rose, it was nothing unusual. Her life has always been this boring and un charming.
When they drove into the Agrestes villa, Christopher didn't fail to notice the smiles on Rose's face. He knew that she loves her life there, she have come to love the Agrestes so much that stepping into their residence brings her much joy.
"go in, Daniel is waiting for you" was all Rose needed to hear.
All the time they took to get home, she only thought about Daniel.
She might still be a replacement but, she have this feeling of wanting to meet him always. She wish to see him every day or it could be because she hasn't seen him in months since the bridal ritual. Any woman will be happy to welcome her husband.
Her moment of smiles and laughs ended the moment she stood before the main building. She still fell the pains of being dragged away. She remembered how they hit her, dragged her hair and bundled her out. Her family did nothing to stop the situation. Her mother in-law played the role of nonchalance. The others either joined or helped throw her out.
Hollywood is a scam, they portray the police as your bestfriend. The police only arrest the guilty ones and uses force when necessary.
Why was she treated like a thief? She've always heard of police brutality but never imagined that she will fall a victim.
"How long have you been standing there?" chris approached her.
He was disappointed when he saw her face up close. She look bitter and scared. Her body was full of fresh wounds and nail marks. But she was smiling earlier, what went wrong?
"Do you think they'll be happy to see me?" Rose asked.
"Who wouldn't be happy to see you Rose?" "Daniel asked me to pick you up as he couldn't come himself" Chris replied
"he did?"
"Yeah"
That was a lie.
Daniel had never said anything related to Rose. Her name alone irritates him. They had an argument for the first tine today before he drove to the station himself.
Why keep a woman when you don't love her?
"Rose get me a glass of water" Mrs. Catherine requested and to their shocking surprise, Rose ignored her. All she wants is to see her husband. She's missed him so much. She raced up the stairs to his room. Hearing Christopher say that her husband asked for her makes her feel special, wanted.
She bumped into Daniel at the door post. He payed little to no attention to her.
"I'll see you when i get home" was all he said as he walked away.
He paid no attention to her features, her smiles and joyous face meant nothing to him.
Rose stood defeated starring at the hallway he disappeared into. Why did he call for her only to hurt her again.
Is she cursed?
She retraced her steps down the direction she came from. His family were already waiting for her.
"Did you meet with the love of your life?"
"Did he give you a fairy kiss?"
"Did you promise to take you to Disney Land?"
"Does he give you butterfly?"
"Did he run away ?"
"Did he leave you behind?"
"Did he perhaps held you against the wall and kiss you?"
"Did he just left you behind?"
Questions and mockery came from different angles. Nothing gives the Agrestes joy other than seeing her suffer. As usual, her mother in-law will seat there and pretend as if nothing's going on.
"We already told you, you have no place here. Angela is the love of his life and no one can replace her"
Little Rose stood before the hungry lions scared and weak. She let them pry on her anyhow they want.
How long does she plan to stay and look on?
she should wise up and fight back, but only if she wants to die young.
She can not win a fight against them.
They own the Nation.
Everything come from them.
Even grandfather was made Mayor by the citizens. If Rose ever decides to fight them, she would be prepared to fight the whole nation.
