The kidnapping

I woke up to a slight headache, I opened my eyes to look at my surrounding. I was sleeping in a king sized bed in a room surrounded by all my favorite flowers. The flowers were kept everywhere in the room.

The room was unfamiliar to me, I looked for anything that can tell me where I was but nothing. I got up and sat down on the bed when the memories of yesterday's event played out on my mind. The realization of what happened hit me hard.' I was kidnapped !' I screamed in my mind. I started to panic and I became fearful.

I heard the door open behind me and a shiver ran down my spine. I was afraid to even look at who it was that opened the door. The footsteps of the person kept getting closer and closer to me and my heart beat increased. I was trembling on the inside but managed to put up a calm appearance. On the surface I looked absolutely calm and composed but my mind was racing a marathon with worries and fear.

A man comes in front of me and stares at me from head to toe. He looked at me for a while before he cleared his throat. "Hello Maja, how are you doing?"

"Who are you ?"I asked him with a cold tone of voice because I didn't want him to know that he terrifies me.

"It is improper to answer a question with another question," he said to me "but if you are interested in knowing who I am the ask me nicely and I will tell you." He said in as a matter of fact manner.

"Why am I here ? Why did you kidnap me ?" I asked him and he simply smiled.

"Don't think of it like that. I did not kidnap you, I simply rescued you."

"Rescued me?" I ask confused on what he was going on about. Did he save me from the kidnappers is that what he meant.

"Yes, I rescued you from the biggest mistake of your life." He said making me even more confused.

"I do not understand you can you please elaborate and tell me exactly what you are talking about."

"Oh my dear, you see I saved from the mistake you made. You made a very big mistake in marrying that fool Adrian. He doesn't deserve you."

"And who are you to tell me that ?" I asked with disdain, how dare he call Adrian a fool.

"I am your well wisher, I only want what's best for you and I am willing to do whatever it takes to help you. You see I happen to know everything about you including yours and Adrian story, so I know that that idiot does not deserve you. You deserve to be with someone who loves and cares for you deeply." He said with so much confidence that I felt like strangling him.

"And might that be you?" I asked him entertaining his nonsense to try and understand him.

"Yes, Maja I love you dearly. I have always loved you, you were just blinded by your misleading feelings for Adrian that you never realized," he moved closer to me and held my hand "I tried many to get your attention but you just never noticed me."

"So you decided to kidnapped me to show me just how much you love me." I asked him yanking my hand away from his hold. I can't believe the nonsense coming out of this lunatics mind. Who does he think he is to talk about my feelings for Adrian like that. How dare he touch me with his filthy hands, I feel like washing my hand a hundred times to get rid of his touch.

"Don't think of it like that my love, you are not in your right senses at the moment. Once you start thinking properly then you will realize that I have done the right thing."

Does this man even hear a word that comes out of his mind. How can this idiot think that anyone in their right would think that getting kidnapped is the best thing that ever happened to them. And what does he mean by I am not in my right senses, has he looked at himself in the mirror.

"How exactly if I may ask did you come to this conclusion. And did you think that I would just accept you in my life because you took me hostage." I have reached my limit point now and I burning with rage.

"No my love, don't say that. You are not a hostage here, you can consider this as your house."

"If that is the case then can I leave, because in my house I go and come as I please."

"I am sorry but I can't allow you to leave until you let go of the illusion that you believe to be love for that idiot called Adrian."

"With no freedom to leave this place then how can you say that I am not a hostage. You claim that you are better than Adrian but yet you are worse than him. You both think that you can anything you want with me. The only difference is that Adrian holds me in a prison of love while you have literally held me in as a prisoner in your house," I screamed at him losing my temper with every single word that comes out of his mouth.

"I am human being with the capability of thinking for myself. I don't need you or anyone else to tell me what you think is good for me. You and everyone else can keep your opinions about me to yourself as I am not interested in what you think. You mean nothing to me and I don't care about what you feel for me because I am neither interested in your love or in you. What gives you the right to kidnap me just because you not happy with my choices. I will make it clear to you now, whether I make a mistake in life or not is none of your business. Let me do what I want because I will be the one to bear the consequences of my actions."

I walk back to the bed after I say that and lay down. I cover myself with the blanket and close my eyes.

"You will get better soon and then you will apologize for being so rude to me." I heard him say. I ignored him knowing very well that it didn't matter what I said the mad man whose name I do not know will believe whatever nonsense his mind comes up with.

Why am I so cursed every single time I find happiness something or the other always happens to me. Why can't I just be happy for once without all this obstacles in my way. I hope Adrian finds me soon and takes me away from this mad man.
