Abduction

I just regained consciousness and when I opened my eyes, found myself in a dark room.

"My oh my...see who we got here" outbursted a strange man with a smirk smile on his face as he walks in.

      A handsome-looking man with a devilish aura all over him that will make you think of him being a monster. His skin is gold color with golden-brown eyes. His black hair which is perfectly cut afro makes some strings of hair fall out on his face matching well with his silver suit with a black shiny pair of shoes.

      A mare look at him will tell, this man is one hell of a rich man. Judging by his appearance, his age should be his late twenties. No doubt, he is looking good with his nice sculptured face and well-built body.

      "Hey, I'm talking to you" he waved his hands as he calls for my attention.

      "I can see my looks have caught your attention," he smirked, "all you see...," pointing all over his body "can be all yours if..."

      "Who are you and how did I get here?" I cut him off knowing well he was trying to get to my skin...how annoying he can be.

In a filthy darkroom tied to a wooden armed chair that is not fitted to my butts, I've got a well-curved butt, average height, green eyes, and a long gray curled hair which matched perfectly well with my pale skin. How did I end up here?

Now I think I'm terrified, as I access the darkroom with a mini window so high from the floor. The light reflection that comes from it, enables you to see a bit. I wonder how on earth I got here, and this simply means I'm being abducted. I tried to remember how, if only 'he' would let me think as I look at the man standing in front of me.

      "Meena" he called out my name.

      "How did you know my name? How did I get here?" I kept on asking.

      "You look so cute when u are so inquisitive, I think I like that. But first, let's get you something to eat, you just regained consciousness and must be hungry"

      As he said that, my tummy growled at the word food. I was so curious, terrified, and anxious to remember how hungry I am.

      He left the room coming back with two pretty ladies nicely dressed, both with trays of food with different kinds of delicacies with a very strong inviting aroma. One can easily say the food will be delicious. But wait, will I eat that? I don't even know who this man is and why he's holding me hostage.

      "Here Meena, eat as much as you want, you look worn out I bet you need plenty of these," he said offering the food as the ladies drop the trays filled with enticing food which are irresistible.

      "How do you expect me to eat that? I knew nothing about you," I paused to see his reaction. "do I know if you poisoned the food" I muttered, more like I was whispering.

       Truly like he said I'm worn out with no strength. I wonder why I feel that way cause I don't feel sour like someone that has been beaten but I'm so tired like someone who has been walking in the desert for months.

      "Hahaha," he laughed, "you think if I wanted to kill you I won't have done that a long time ago, ugh?"

      Well, he's right but not as if I cared, I wasn't even going to say no to such delicacies staring at me asking me to devour them. I only said that not to look like a petty little kid. I need to act strong even though am dying in fear inside.

      "How do you expect me to eat with my hands tied?" I asked looking down this time, maybe a bit shy of my outburst.

      "I guess someone finally opened up" he smirked, "well, let me excuse you to eat, I'll be back soon." He said as one of the ladies unties me.

He left alongside the beautiful ladies. Exactly what I needed, was to be alone and eat as I want.

      I'm done with the food which I almost finished, I don't eat much but I found myself eating like a glutton. Now at least let me think as I'm now alone.

I may have had something to eat but I still wanted to figure out how I ended up here and thinking of it, the realization hit me. It was a cold evening and I was with my friends at the beach on the East coast of Medaline city, Agape town.

      Medaline is made up of fifty-three towns, one of the largest cities in Gober, a country well known for its wealth, mass production of different kinds of daily use products, exportations, and its tourist attractions which make people from different parts of the world come for tourism.

      I happened to be one of the luckiest ones whose parents were wealthy and affluent. My dad Gilbert Judge owns twenty-two percent of the land and properties in the city of Medaline.

      Gilbert Judge was well known for his wealth. And he was pronounced the wealthiest person in our city.

      There is this saying 'more wealth more enemies'. My parents were assassinated the same day in our mansion. I was young then, at the age of fifteen.

      A day I will never forget, my fifteenth birthday. Gilbert Judge and Rita Judge were murdered.

      I was about to cut my cake in front of able men and women, who are the wealthiest people in Medaline. My dad decided he was going to celebrate it in a big way for me since I was turning fifteen.

       "Meena, my princess" my dad called as he opens the door and walked in alongside mum holding a present that was well packaged.

      "Wakey wakey sleepyhead," said my mum.

      "Good morning dad, good morning mum" I greeted with my sleepy voice and I jumped off the bed at the sight of the present. Oh, I love presents.

      "My princess how was your night," my dad asked.

      "Short" I replied in simple terms trying to grab the present.

     "Hold on Meena, hold on," mum tried to stop me with a smile on her face. Those smiles always got me. She was like a goddess, the most beautiful woman I have ever seen with the kindest of heart, and I looked just like her...how lucky I am.

      "But mum it's for me isn't it?" I asked, acting sad.

      "Yes, of course, it's yours but you have to take it easy, I have to offer it to you gently my love" mum responded, still wearing the smiley face.

      "Okay mum I'm sorry, am not a child anymore so I shouldn't act like one, am now a big girl," I said sitting on my bed and they laughed.

      "Here you go" she offers me the gift. I just couldn't wait to open it.

      "Thanks, mum," I said, taking it from her and opening it immediately while my mum sat beside me and dad stood in front of me, both looking at me as something they cherished so much and would do anything to protect.

      "Wow! Mum! Dad! This is beautiful, a dress" Bringing it up a little box fell out of the dress and I opened it...
