Don't Play With Me - A Jatrina Novel

Chapter 9

**Janet P.O.V**

After a while in silence I finally say

"I have to go get her. But there's no way I'm giving him custody nor living there again, Katrina will you help me?" I ask

"Da of course Janet, got plan in mind?" Asks Katrina

"No.. but it can't be long, we need to get Riley back without going to the police" I reply

"We'll think of something" Katrina tries to up my spirit

**Riley P.O.V**

I ate my nuggets from McDonald's, I had so many questions but wouldn't ask them, fearing I might get hurt. I knew mom wouldn't leave me here, her and dad hadn't gotten along a lot and I knew she feared for my safety. After a while dad told me to go to my room, I walked into my old bedroom but it wasn't the same, all my frozen stuff was gone, the window was covered by a plank that was screwed in, and my bed was no longer there, just a patched up bean bag chair

"I'm putting you in here so I don't accidentally hurt ya when im drunk" Roger tells me as he shuts and locks my door

I lay down on the beanbag chair and just start crying, I missed my mother, and Katrina. Mom and her were a perfect match but mom didn't see it. I thought of ways to help her see it while crying to myself. I felt like I had been in here for days but in reality it was probably only a few hours 'was he gonna leave me in here?' I thought to myself.

Just then I heard Marie talking on the phone

"No I don't think this is a bad idea its a good idea! Janet gets to suffer and Riley gets to live with her dad, its a win win" Marie tells the person on the phone

"I know Roger doesn't know anything about Riley but he can learn. He does too know her name!" Marie argued

"Look, I gotta go. You know where the russian lives right?" She asks

"Good. You know what to do. Bye" Marie finished off

My doorknob began to turn, I instantly layed down and faked being asleep. Marie walked over and picked me up, I still faked sleeping, not knowing what she was going to do. I hear Roger

"Was she still awake? I want her to be asleep when Janet arrives, I don't want Janet to hear her" Roger tells Marie

"Nope, she's asleep. What should I do with her? That room of hers isn't in the beat condition, plus the dog is starting to rip apart our pillows" Marie answers

"Put her in our room and move the dog back into her room. Then come back here, i need you to stay in the hiding spot with the riffle in case someone else tries to come with Janet" Roger replies

"Okay Rogy" Marie replies as she begins walking

Marie Lays be down on a large bed, I pretend to have just woken up

"Auntie Marie? Whats going on?" I ask

"Don't worry about it, go back to sleep" she answers

"Otay" I reply and close my eyes again.

She leaves the room, locking the door behind her

I sigh, "pwease come soon mum.." I say to myself

**Roger P.O.V**

I check the time, its 2:35 p.m., I finish loading the riffle and then take Marie outside and hide her, she's so much better than Janet, at least she didn't want to keep Riley from me like Janet did. I wasn't abusive to Janet, she just needed to be hit when she wasn't doing what I told her to do, thats not abuse, thats putting someone in there place.
