Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

"i already told you, Tabby, I'm on your side, relax, okay?"

he said in a teasing tone. " Liam went to ready for the flight, so you have to get ready too."

-Liam? So that's the suit guy's name. "Who_ are you people, and what do you want from me?"_ I asked, frustration evident in my voice. I had asked that question before, and just like before, he didn't give a fucking answer.

We arrived at a bedroom that was huge compared to my own. In fact, I'm sure my whole house was nothing compared to this. It gave off a celebrity vibe, with its luxurious lighting and design. I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.

"_You can take a shower and come downstairs for lunch when you're done." he said with a white smile. I finally took notice of his appearance.

He wasn't really tall, but not short either. He had glowing brown eyes that matched his golden brown curly hair, and his body seemed firm and well-built.

-if you really were on my side, you wouldn't have kidnapped me and put me in a dirty basement for God knows how long. I could tell he wasn't sorry for it either.

I decided to check my wristwatch to get a sense of time, but I realized it was missing,just as my phone.

_"Ahm, Will?"_ I stammered,

"You didn't happen to have my wristwatch, do you_?"

He glanced at me, his eyes filled with a mixture of guilt and amusement.

"Ahh yeah, we had to take it while we were disarming you," he replied, scratching his head nervously.

My mind raced, and the first thought that came to me was, _They saw me naked?_

Will seemed to read my mind and quickly reassured me.

"_No, not like that. Don't worry,"_ he said, as if he had heard my unspoken question. "_Take a shower, get ready. There are some clothes in the cardboard over there,"_ he pointed to a wardrobe in the corner of the room.

"I _think we'll have to do some shopping soon. We've never kidnapped a girl before, so it's mostly manly style_."

** before?** Did they do this all the time?.Was this some sick joke? But the seriousness in Will's eyes told me otherwise. I reluctantly followed his instructions, as he left the room.

Literally everything in this shit of a closet is mens clothes, huh if they knew they were gonna kidnap a girl the least they could have done was buy me clothes.

So i didn't have a choice it's either I wear my dirty once was fav yoga pants and crip top or men wearing , _oh wow they even had mens underwear here how unexpected_ -note the sarcasm here.

After what felt like eternity I finally picked out my outfit a black **LV hoodie** and oversized shorts with a pair of socks . I don't know what or who I was wearing but the point was not to stay naked,at this point I went out of the bedroom trying to find my way to the living room.

Just as I was leaving the room another girl was coming out of the other room as well, she was taller than me , her eyes spackle and her skin just above mine,she had a messy ponytail and a pair of glasses.-nerd.

" _they got you too"_ I stared at her as She said. They had gotten her too? My mind raced with questions, but before I could even utter a word, she chuckled and introduced herself.

"Am Abby," she said, extending her hand towards me.

I hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to trust her or not. But in this situation, I realized that I needed someone by my side. So, I cautiously shook her hand and replied, "I'm Tabby."

Abby's eyes scanned my outfit, and she smirked. "_Nice choice,"_ she commented, gesturing towards my **LV hoodie**. "At least we're not naked, right"

I let out a slight smile as she was trying to lighten up the mood.

A/n:when you see****please know that it's not the current situation &(-) means it's a statement meant to be to himself/herself.

[Abi Gail's PVO]

I was coming out of my temporal room as another girl came out of the room next to mine -why the hell is She wearing like a man? this place didn't seize to surprise me. "they got you too"I couldn't hold back a slight laugh. "am Abby" I extended my hand to great her. She seemed hasitant at first like she was analysing me and what she would call the best response move "Tabby" she finally spoke ;-Thank God I thought I'll have to wait for an eternity for her to actually think of speaking.

"Tabby Blu"_she continued."So..why are you here, Tabby Blu?"_ I was curious because as to where I was standing. She didn't look like anyone who would mess with Liam but then again I wouldn't either-_yet I did_. I could literally read someone just by looking at them from they're physical or verbal response which gave me pointers;I guess it's all part of having an IQ of 252 right. She didn't have a clue of what I was talking about,Damn. I guess I should tell my story then .

********************************************************************************************************************************Walking home from School as usual God I hate the streets of this place and as i could see the view of my house my mood went from bad to worse, and it's not of the fact that the place I called home was a rusty worn out bucket of shit ;but of the alcoholic lame excuse of a father that lives in this shit hole with us. _hopefully his not home_ I take hold of my door ; surprise the knob is in my hand , AGAIN! Ahh I groan in tiredness. I push the door am In_wonder where mom is :I hear glass breaking from my parents room and him yelling at her again it's the fifth time this week , I quickly run to the the chaos and I find my mom lying on the floor with her shirt torn and her skirt halfway her waist. "_Now's not a good time sweetheart" mom always tells me to stay away as possible when dad is beating her up like this.

"awwr if it isn't my shitty little know it all daughter". --How the hell did I get to have a dad like this? Man, did I really wrong someone so hard in my past life that I had to suffer from this every single day of my pathetic life? "How about we have a father-daughter talk Gail" Michael continued _i never called him as 'DAD'maybe because he would smack the hell out of me whenever I did --then again, I had no intentions of even considering calling him my dad . "Abby?" Mom called my name in concern as Michel came closer to me "Abby Run!!!" my mother screamed in fear as he increase his was towards me and--.

FUCK, I woke up from my twelfth nightmare this month what a relief only twelve times this month? I stared at the sleeping devil next to me;okay roommate Rosie this spoiled bitchy brat was like a mini hell for me.another reminder of Michael

--hallelujah his dead--

he died five years ago and it was me and my mom ever since, she would put food on our table ;not that Michel ever did it but was less work for her now since she didn't have to feed that old slug anymore once he died.

--guess who broke down in tears at his funeral;not_us.

She had to work double shifts though to keep me going to school and as much as I wanted to help her I couldn't I was only a minor all I could do is get good grades I was one of the 'gifted' children according to my teachers when they saw my performance at school.

I got out of bed as I headed for the shower , I had a tight schedule and I didn't want to disappoint;I got a

scholarship and I had to take advantage of this but _fuck FUCK fuck_this place is a nightmare for me it was a college for Rich high class I was the only one who looked like I crawled out of a manhole and headed straight for the presence of a source of light.

"Ms Gail?"I fassed

out of my thoughts as I looked at the witch calling my name "**_what_"** I asked with my low unconcerned tone taking over .

_"In case you didn't notice, you're in the middleof my lessons_"

she looked at me with a death look

"_you better pay attention or else-"

;--or else what ?you gonna send me to the principals office again?dang I wish you were as determined about your appearance just as you were about getting all over business that didn't involve you.maybe think about you applying less makeup cause clearly it doesn't matter how much you apply you are still unattractive and no guy would wanna be with a witch such as you and neither would i and infact some Moran like you shouldn't even be allowed to-

I was cut off. "Ms Gail to the office" ohh well this was my fifth time there but it's not my fault I Said this thought out loud but I had no regrets I meant every single word.

"_Abby,what did we say about disrespecting lecturers_"

Victor Valentino said as his hand were resting on his dark reddish obviously expensive desk his office was tiny but was organnised and diplomas beautifully displaying on his walls.

"this is the forth time you're here_" "actually it's Fifth" ;I just couldn't help but correct that little error he made, he looked at me in boredom and after a few acward silent moments he spoke up.

"you've insulated almost every lecturer at the entire college, you have messed with the security system countless times triggering the fire alarm just so you can have some 'peace and quiet '

" I needed it and you should be greatful this is supposed to be a learning institute not a tavern with parties and your students dressing up like strippers dancing with the professors" I said sarcastically.

'Sorry Abby , you've been alot of trouble , and as punishment ,we removed your scholarship." he said with a fake sad face

" what You can't do that"

"we can and we did , so from now on you will be paying for your tuition fee , the dorm and your own food , no allowance. "

---seriously?i just said how 'rich' I am and now I have to pay all that money?_where that fuck am I gonna get that money I couldn't even get a job because of my busy schedule at school.

"by next week you need to pay" he said " but-but how?" Where I couldn't even construct a sentence.

_"you've really brought this on Yourself, am sorry Abby, I can't help out out of this one."

--FUCK can this day get any worse? I stormed out of Victor's office slamming the door carelessly.
