Episode 38
Found
It's two days now and Lilly is still held hostage by Bella.
Lilly can be seen in an abandoned house in the middle of nowhere. Tied down with her mouth taped. She hasn't showered and has eaten nothing since she was kidnapped, she's very weak.
Bella: (Enters) My father suddenly decides to come home the same day I kidnapped you and have been wanting some family time ever since.
I just came to check on you.
How are you? (No reply)
Hahahaha.
I just came to announce to you that your death day is tomorrow. Dad is leaving tomorrow morning and that same morning, I will kill you all by myself.
(Goes close to her and lifts her chin up)
You must be wondering why I don't have some goons working with me or something. Well, it makes it so easy for me because no one will be able to trace anything.
No one will save you from my hands, flower girl. Not even your lover, Brian.
He's not gonna help you. He is all mine
Lilly: (In a low tone) Please just let me go, I promise to steer clear from Brian, I will even leave Upper West if you want.
Just let me go, please. I am my only sister's family.
Bella: I'm sorry but can't do.
Dying young isn't bad. You can go meet God in heaven this early.
(Stands up)
Gotta go flower girl. I'm having dinner with the family.
Enjoy your last evening!
(Walks away)
Lilly: Please perform a miracle Lord.
At Lilly's house
Lex didn't go to work for the past two days, she is so worried about her sister and wishes that she's alive and fine
Brian has been with her in the house ever since, reminding her to bath, eat and try to relax.
The police are still searching for Lilly.
Lex: If she had run away she would have kept a note or something
And we have checked everywhere, no notes.
Brian: (Worried but pretends to be okay) She will be found soon
(Phone rings)
Hi Dad.
Yes, I have been in a friend's house ever since
I'm sorry I didn't inform you, I thought I did be home before you get back
Um, my friend Lilly is missing.
Yes, her.
We have filed a missing case.
Oh thanks a lot Dad, that will be helpful.
Okay, bye. (Hangs up)
Lex: What did he say? I mean the helpful part
Brian: He said that he will tell the media to report her missing and that we should send him a picture of Lilly
Lex: Oh that will be so helpful. Please do that.
Two hours later
7:30pm
Mr Potter, Lucy and Becca can be seen on the road with a car broken down.
Lucy: So we aren't gonna make it to the concert tonight and get back home just in time for the sports competition?
Becca: We don't know yet. I mean, it's just 7pm..
Mr Potter: I'm sorry Miss, I didn't predict this.
I didn't check the car before Leaving..
Becca: No, it's my fault. Wanting to see a once in a lifetime time K-pop concert
Lucy: No, it's not your fault.
We would have bonded with them in a way, who knows, maybe expanding our popularity.
Mr Potter: Let me go and look for a mechanical shop or something.
There must be one around.
Lucy: Yes, please do that
Mr Potter: I will be back, Miss. (Leaves)
Becca: Let's take the evening air.
(They go down)
Lucy: Want a candy bar? (Passes a candy bar to Becca)
Becca: You shouldn't ask. Just pass
Lucy: Sorry Ma'am.
(They laugh)
Becca: You know Kira? The teen actress?
Lucy: Yeah, Kira Larry.
What's up with her?
Becca: She loves Kris and even wants to marry him.
Lucy: (laughs) Everyone wants to marry Kris
Becca: I know but I'm scared that he might like her back.
She's wealthy, pretty, very hot and…
Lucy: Girl, don't bother to, Kris doesn't do actresses.
I mean, he never wants anything to do with the stage.
You know, from the beginning he hated acting because he thought acting took away his mother's love, so, Nothing with actors.
Becca: (Relieved) Oh yeah, that's true.
Lucy: Relieved now?
Becca: Totally.
Lucy: Lover girl.
Don't waste more time in telling him how you feel, girl
Becca: Not yet, Luc.
Lucy: If you say so.
(Mr Potter comes back)
Mr Potter: I couldn't find any mechanical shop or mechanic, Miss. I'm sorry
Becca: Let's book a cab?
Lucy: No. That's risky.
It's night time, you know, we are stars. Some greedy people will wanna take advantage..
Becca: Oh yeah. That's right
Mr Potter: We can't spend the night here, we have to look for a place to stay.
Lucy: You are right.
Let's look around if we can find a hotel or something.
(The girls begin to walk forward. Mr Potter takes their purses and locks the car)
After walking for some minutes, they see an abandoned building.
Lucy: This abandoned house looks okay.
Not beautiful but at least manageable.
Becca: Let's check it out first. (They go in)
Mr Potter: (looking around) It's abandoned alright.
Lucy: A little house furnished.
Becca: Just like those in the fairy tales
Lucy: Exactly.
Mr Potter: Looks worn out.
Lucy: The owners might have gotten a better house or something and then left this one.
Becca: Looks like those houses in horror movies when the people get killed.
Lucy: Don't scare me!
Becca: (Laughs)
Mr Potter: Let me see how this place can be suitable for us tonight.
Becca: Check if there's something in the kitchen to eat
Mr Potter: Okay Miss. (Leaves)
Lucy: Foody.
Becca: Let's check the rooms.
Lucy: only two rooms in the house.
Check the other, let me check this. (They split)
(Enters the room) The room is surprisingly empty and spacious.
(Turns around and sees a girl lying down on the floor, she screams)
Becca and Mr Potter: (Running in) Is anything the matter?
Lucy: (points to the girl terrified)
Becca: Just like those horror movies.
Mr Potter: She is tied down.
Lucy: Is she alive?
Mr Potter: Let me check. (Goes to meet the girl and checks her pulse.). She's alive alright.
Although, she seems unconscious.
Lucy: (Goes to meet the girl to see her face) Lilly?!
Becca: (Goes to meet them) Who is Lilly?
Lucy: The girl in our class that does come to school early.
Becca: The one the president's son was rumored to like?
Lucy: Yes, it's her!
Becca: Someone must have kidnapped her.
Lucy: No wonder she wasn't in school yesterday.
Becca: We have to leave here and find a hospital or something.
Lucy: Let's call Kris. He will come here with his Lamborghini.
Becca: Phone's down
Lucy: Same with mine.
Can we use yours Mr Potter? (Mr Potter gives her) Take Becca call him, let me untie Lilly
Becca: Okay. (Rings Kris)
Kris: Xup B
Becca: We need your help. We are in the middle of nowhere and we need you to come
Kris: I'm busy
Lucy: (Takes the phone from Becca) I am turning my location on, track it with your GPS and be here in less than 40 minutes.
It's a two hours drive from my house and with your Lamborghini, you should be here soon
Kris: The Lamborghini is my third and last car that I bought recently, which really finished my account balance…
Lucy: Don't let me wait for you. (Hangs up)
Don't worry he will be here soon
Becca: But what do we do in the meantime?
Mr Potter: Let's try to cover her feet and body to prevent cold.
Lucy: Okay. Everyone donate your jackets.
