"We didn't talk about this! stop it while it's still early, this is kidnapping for god sake!" A voice shouted out of her frustration and someone dragged me somewhere I can't clearly see their faces, because it's dark and I only see a small beam of light, enough to see their shadows.

"Ahhhhhhhh!" I screamed, someone is tweaking my hair.. Please not again! I almost cry because its really hurts. I don't know what happened I just woke up when I heard those voice.

"BRUGGGG!" A loud noise as my body aches, someone just pushed me into a chair, I looked up and saw at least six women shadow based on the shape of their clothes I think they are wearing a uniform with a bat in their hands. The one has a rope in her hands and tied me up; the next girl approached me and covered my mouth. what should I do? I don't have anything right now I was supposed to meet my friends right now at the Brew Cafe. As I walked down the street someone just covered my nose that made me sleep and here I am struggling to scape from them but I was tightly tied up.

"MMMMM!" As I tried to talk, a minute later I saw a girl walk towards me her hair is above shoulder she tried to pinched my jaw so I averted my face and in just a second she slapped me hard. I felt pain as the liquid dripped off from my face.

"What?! you think I would let you meet Vince whenever you want?!" She angrily said as she uncovered my mouth, I know that voice how can I forget that voice came from a person who had a huge grudge on me. 

"Stop it Althea! you didn't even know why I wanted to meet Vince" I weakly said, I'm exhausted and numb I haven't eaten anything because I was supposed to eat with Vince that's why I didn't eat anything.

At the same time as liquid dripped from my face. 

"Ang kapal din ng muka mo, masyado kang papansin sa tingin mo ba magugustuhan ka ni Vince kapag pinagpatuloy mo yan?" she shouted as she held my face. I received another slpped from her.

"Are you afraid that Vince might like me?" I said with a smirk, while deceiving her I saw a piece of glass enough to cut the rope. I slowly move tried to reached it from behind and I Immediately turned my gaze on her as I gradually removing the rope in my hands.

"Afraid? me? why should I afraid of?" she bravely said, you can't lie to me Althea I know you're afraid, why would you do this thing if you aren't afraid. I almost said but I rather keep it in mind because she will hurt me for sure.

"Do you think Vince see you as a woman?" that word gives pain to me. whenever Vince try to push me away, my heart always pierce in pain.

"He will see me as a woman, Someday" when you're gone, but of course I didn't said that, I don't want to make the situation worse, now that I'm alone and no one can help me.

"Keep on dreaming! dahil hanggang ganyan ka nalang, wala ka nang pag asa sakanya dahil ako lang ang mahal niya. You're just an orphan kaya wag kang kumapit sa iba para lang sa pera!" Nanggagalaiti niyang saad saka hinablot ang buhok ko, Never in my life I would do that; kahit hindi ako kasing yaman nila may respeto parin ako sa sarili ko. despite of the pain I feel I successfully remove the rope in my hand. 

"Wag mo akong igaya sayo, Althea! ako kaya kong buhayin ang sarili ko! hindi katulad mo na umaasa sa pera ng iba!" matapang na sabat ko, she was about to hurt me again when a familiar voice shouted with an authority.

"Stop it, Althea!" he shouted with anger as he turn his gazed on my side and looked at me with concern.

"K-kuya?! what are you doing here? how did you know that I'm here?!" Althea asked her but he just approached me, help me stand up but my legs isn't strong enough to support me so he so carried me like a newly wed and turned his gazed on them. I saw those vindictive eyes enough to think that she's killing me in her mind.

"You really disappointed me!" He coldly said and walked away I didn't know what happened next when dark slowly eat me.

"What happened to her?!" A voice with full of concern.

I slowly open my eyes and saw a colored white room. Where am I?  Unti- unti akong tumingin sa gilid  saka ko lang nahagip ang dalawang taong mahalaga sa buhay ko.

"Hey! Are you okay?" Veina asked worriedly. I think I know where am I.

"I'm fine, Anong oras na ba?" I asked saka dahan dahang umupo.

"It's nearly 9:00 pm, kumain ka muna" Ani Sheina, kaya pala sobra ang gutom ko. Nag simula na akong kumain ng kanin at prutas.

"Dahandahan ka lang, baka mabulunan ka, uminom ka ng tubig" Saway ni Sheina siya ang pinaka maalaga saming tatlo at pinaka mabait. Wait! My bag! Si Vince Baka nag text sya.

"Have you seen my bag?" Nag mamadaling tanong ko, Nang biglang may nagsalita sa pintuan.

"Here!" He said, as he gave me my bag, I Immediately check my phone, but no one had texted. He didn't really text me? Maybe he doesn't care.

"Thank you for helping me, Zake!" I said from the bottom of my heart, even though he's Althea's brother he still chooses to help me.

"I'm sorry for what Althea did, I didn't know she could do things like this" he said in a guilty tone.

"Is not your fault, Pano mo pala nalaman kung nasaan ako?" I curiously asked, saka lahat kami ay nag antay ng sagot niya.

"I was walking at the hall when I heard Rica talking to Jaime, I confronted him; he said they took you to a small place near the park, and Evelyn's boyfriend was the one who kidnapped you, Althea is all behind this." He disappointedly explain, Jaime is in love with Althea despite of her having a boyfriend he would still do everything for her. Rica and Evelyn is one of the people who was there at the dark room. Small place near the park? Kaya pala madilim dahil puro puno ang nakapaligid sa lugar nayun.

"About Vince—" I was about to utter another word when my friend cut me off.

"He doesn't care about you! So please wake up, leave him alone will you? Kaya ka napapahamak dahil sakanya tapos wala siya kapag na gitna ka ng kapahamakan!" Veina said in annoyance, he doesn't like Vince for me.

"Okay" I only said "Can I be discharge now? Maayos naman na ako" walang gana kong sabi saka tumingin sakanila, nag babakasakaling pumayag.

"No! It's late outside you should sleep, bukas kapa pwedeng madischarge" Sabat ni Zake kaya wala na akong magawa at natulog nalang, wala parin siyang text, baka naman busy pa siya. Zake is a friend of mine, he always take good care of me kahit na kapatid niya pa ang kalabanin niya. He's a good friend, smart, and handsome they say that might he like me but I don't believe that, he's just a friend for me but I never called him a best friend.  I only had one boy best friend, its Vince.

I hope tomorrow he text me, that would make me feel that he still cares for me.
