Mockingbird | Notti Osama

Twenty-Six

I tried backing up but I was already cornered. I could only cry. I didn't scream because I had my doubts about the chance of someone who would be able to help me hear. 

"You're too pretty to be crying," Kay took his thumb and wiped the tears off of my face. I wanted to push him away but I was scared of being hurt.

He turned my head and started leaning in like he was going to kiss me but I moved my head away and he started to get angry.

"You stupid bitch!" He stood up and slapped me hard across my face. 

Where his hand met my face stung hard. I couldn't describe the pain in detail. It just hurt so bad that I couldn't even place my hand there. It hurt to move my face and I cried he walked out slamming the door behind him.

I thought of Ethan and what he was doing at that moment. I was hoping he was happy and safe. I was hoping that he was trying to do everything he could to find me. 

I laid on the bed for what felt like years when the door was opened and a tray slid in before the door slammed shut again.

The tray had some water, a bowl of pasta, and a granola bar. 

I just stared at the food because I wasn't trusting it. Kay could be trying to poison me. He had something against Ethan and I just happened to be caught in the middle of it. 

My face started to feel better. Nothing hurt anymore but I didn't get up. 

I just lay on the bed and stared at the wall. A million and one thoughts raced through my mind. 

Ethan was almost always at the top of the list. 

I wished I didn't walk to the bathroom alone but I'm so glad Ivy stayed with him. I was just lying on my bed and thinking when I finally thought of something. 

My phone!

I checked everywhere in the room and when I finally found it. It was wedged between the mattress and the bed frame. 

I quickly typed in the password and tried calling somebody. 

First, it was Ddot. I called and called but his phone just rang. I called Vonny next and he finally answered. 

"Vonny!" I said with tears flooding my eyes. 

"Oh my god Valentina!" He said and I heard shuffling in the background. "Where are you?"

I looked around to make sure that I wasn't going to get caught. 

"Victor listen to me," I slowly started to collect my thoughts. "I think I've been kidnapped and I don't know where the hell I am."

"Do you recognize who has you?" I heard Asia ask and it was obvious the kids were crying in the background. 

"Kay does!" I screamed into the phone and just as I did the door swung open to reveal...
