Chapter 2
I was where I was the day before but thankfully it wasn't raining. One would have expected me to cry, curse the day i was born and go on a suicide mission. But no, I was too drained to even beg for a ride like I've seen some people do so I've resigned to walking with sandals in hand.
I didn't want it spoiling yet as it is the best sandals I had. And by best I mean good enough to wear.
My mind drifted off to Vincent and I started thinking about him once more. I didn't like the fact that he was always on mind since he had made that disturbing offer but he was a good distraction from the scalding sun beating down on me and the aching in my knees.
I've always liked tanned skin but if I stayed in that kind of sun for hours then I'd surely look like a native of Africa, not that I minded, africans are great people right? But I'd rather not become black in the most painful way
I squealed and almost jumped out of my skin as a black car screeched to a stop next to me, it had black tinted glass so i couldn't see who was inside. I had heard stories of how people were dragged into a car and kidnapped only to be found in a bush, dead.
Oh no!
I finally broke from her trance and made a move to run when a hand reached out and grabbed my arm, dragging me into the car. I struggled against the arm pinching and hitting but to no avail. My fears were becoming true and i could do nothing. No one was around as it was a deserted area so even if i screamed it would be a waste.
The strong arm succeeded in pulling me inside and shutting the door before I could even blink. A click was heard which made it obvious that the car was completely locked. I could tell that I was sitting in the passenger's seat and that the person was a man wearing a suit. That surprised me as in the action books and movies I had watched, the kidnappers always donned on black jacket most times. This person with suit definitely didn't look like one. But who was I kidding, he obviously was in disguise though I didn't know why he'd bother when the no one would see him except me.
"You're just wasting your time." I got out and sat right. I wasn't going to be scared. If he thought he'd use me to get money then I'll let him waste his time. Who knows if I'll even get free food for the few days he'll keep me with him. Except I might die if he sees I have nothing to offer. I shivered at that thought.
The person chuckled and somehow it sounded familiar. I was determined not to look at him in case he turned out to be extremely good looking like some villians in movies and I'll end up having Stockholm's syndrome.
"Will you at least look at me?" He asked. Amusement clearly written on his face.
"No!"
"Okay then, be stupid if you want. I'm just offering you a ride." I frowned at that. Kidnappers don't give their victims ride. They would only do that after the family paid and that would not be to the person's home so what was he going on about? I decided to look anyways, one couldn't fall in love just at first sight right??
I turned my head slowly from the tinted glass I've been glaring at to the mysterious kidnapper and gasp. One could definitely fall in love at second sight because the kidnapper turned out to be none other than Vincent Harry.
I couldn't help but gape at him for a minute but I was quick to regain my composure.
"Tsk tsk, who would have thought that the almighty Vincent would be stalking an ordinary girl like me?" I smirked at him. I would see how he'd lie his way out of that one.
"Stalking? You?!" He laughed a wicked laugh that made my smirk drop. He made it sound like it was the worst thing ever. That certainly did not help my self esteem.
"Be rest assured, I'm not stalking you I have better things to do besides I just came to have some meetings with the board of directors of one of my companies in this area."
"Nng" I swallowed. He definitely knew how to shut someone up.
"Have you made up your mind about the offer." He asked with a serious expression.
"I already gave my answer "
"And that is?"
"No!"
He chuckled and for some reason it reminded me of those evil villains in movies who always seem to have plans to make life miserable for the pitiful protagonist at every turn which makes me wonder.....will I end up as the pitiful protagonist? He reached into his breast pocket and brown out a black and gold themed business card. He poked my arm with it and when I didn't make a move to take it, he dropped it on my laps.
"Tell me when you've made up your mind." The way he said it, as if he already knew what my answer would finally be before I knew it myself enraged me before I knew it I took the card from my lap and slapped it on his cheek. The card must have been made from a slightly sticky material because it stuck to his cheeks and made him look ridiculous so much I almost laughed. Of course I reigned in the urge and gave him the hardest glare I could muster.
"I've made up my mind and nothing can change it you can stick both your offer and card where the sun doesn't shine." I spat and quickly looked out the window before I would shiver with the cold look he had on.
Luckily, he didn't say anything throughout the whole ride and I found myself wondering if I was too harsh but shook my head at the thought. He probably thought I was some easy slut he could fuck and was angry at the fact that I didn't sleep with him the moment he asked and thus the determination to get me at all cost.
That must be it because if he wanted a baby mama so bad then he could have one of his famous model girlfriends do that. He wouldn't need someone like me to do that for him.
He parked right in front of the Nathan's house and I couldn't help but gape at him.
"H-how-"
"Just get the fuck out." He harshly said.
Ouch. That hurt.
"Fine!"
And to get the point across I made sure to slam the door so hard, I'm sure it left a dent but he just sped off as if he didn't care. He obviously didn't when he could just get another one within a minute.
I could suddenly feel the hot concrete burn my leg and I looked down to see my barefoot. I remembered removing the sandals and holding and I remembered dropping it of the foot mat of the car.
Now he'd have an excuse to come back.
Just great.
