LAYLA'S POV
Tuesday THE 17th June.
"Get up" I could here jasmine Whisper as she went around the room touching every girls leg to get up, I gently sat up for her to know I am awake again. It was like the other day, room was pitch black and everywhere dead silence apart from the small noise they are making lol.
"Everyone is up" she said as she proceeded to move to her bed, not talking to me this time around.
"Good" Aisha said.
"Well I want to reveal some shocking news to you guys before we stop our meeting once and for all, I don't know how we are going to be communicating again but we would find a way, but for now we don't want them to suspect us any further they already do and that's why they came to check us during the night on Sunday and yesterday Monday, that's why we did not have the meeting yesterday so that it would be more believable that we were sleeping if we actually were" Zainab stated in a very serious tone as she whispered, I did not know these girls had it in them wow i am surprised they acted dumb and one would think they actually were, everyday arguing about something pink and purple to wear so it was all an act? Wow they are really good.
"So I don't want to talk to much, but we found a picture book in the basement and it had all our names in them and passports and all, according to the book there are 3 more girls that would be coming to stay in our room specially according to what I understood and their names would be layla and Lana and as you can see Layla is here so I wonder when the Lana would be coming here, the book had all our names including our surname something they never tell us, I don't want to alarm you but the book had specific details about us all, i don't know what happened when we were captives bit our survival was not based on luck, it was all a game to them from the very begining. There was a girl named Maryam there I have never seen her but they explained how they plan to break her legs and it was not successful so they sent a maid called Jane to poison her so she won't be able to walk, I don't know that was very strange to me she was the only person that was never brought here and I think it's weird but I don't know" Zainab said.
"Oh, her parents took her home from the station I can remember her" I whispered to add my thoughts to the conversation.
"Okay, I don't really understand how that's possible but who knows maybe they are influential but still I wonder what her walking has to do with anything, so that's it guys goodnight and please don't act suspicious at the dinning table especially you Layla, don't act friendly to anyone new continue speaking to jasmine the way you've always done please don't bring suspicion to you, you are already the new girl" Zainab ended the conversation as I heard everyone turning to go back to sleep, what? They have no questions? Isn't the information kinda incomplete?
"Yaawwwn" I give up, I have to go to sleep I would think about this in the morning.
(7 hours later... Dinning hall)
"Anyone wants a second round, come and get it we have some food left" the serving lady said as some people stood up to go get seconds.
"You want?" Jasmine said as she also got up.
"No, I am fine" I said.
"More for me I guess" she said as she walked off.
"Annocment! Annocment!! Annocment!!" Mr Joseph shouted as he walked into the noisy dinning hall, but it worked though everywhere became quiet in a millisecond.
"Layla you have a guest, if you are done with your meal come with me" he said as he began to walk out of the hall.
"This was no news now, the police do come to speak to me once in a while so me getting visitors is not common but it's also not news, oh I wonder who it is this time" i thought to myself as i went to drop my tray i was done eating and began to follow Mr Joseph.
I walked fast behind me and touched my pocket to make sure it was still there as I followed him.
"There she is" he said as he pointed as a female figure in the room that was sitting down, she wasn't wearing a police uniform they have never visited with no uniform before.
"Okay" I said hesitantly as I walked closer and closer to the figure, she was no older than me and also she looks familiar like I have seen her somewhere but from where? The mall? The news? Where could I have seen this face?
"Good morning" I said as I say down opposite her.
"Hi Layla, Good morning" she replied to me, so she does knows me?
"Okay then, I would leave you both alone" Mr Joseph said as he walked out of the room, there was no one else there it was now me and this mystery figure.
"Where are my manners" she said as she smiled "my name is Maryam" she said, i was in disbelief what were the odds the girl we spoke about came to see me today.
"Oh hi" I replied, she looked well though her skin looks better and her eyes a bit calm, she looked better than the last time I saw her she looks like she is in a better place.
"I know this is awkward for you and me too, I came to see you because I was wondering where you were, if you've gone home or not so I came to check, I wanted to talk about what happened those days and you are the only one i feel comfortable talking to" she said, is she a spy? Why would she want to talk to me? Can I trust her? I mean her case is new, she's with her parents lucky her.
"About what exactly?" I asked.
"What happened to us, the day we were rescued" she said, rescued? All I can remember was the police sryrine and the interrogation room anything prior I can't remember, but she remembers things before that? Oh she must be lucky lucky then.
"Oh I see, you have it too"
"Have what?"
"The memory loss, I thought you would know better than me, but I guess I am the one who does accordingly to you reaction, well I was also lonely and again i feel like I can trust you"
