Sonia's fear
Sonia watched him leave.
He seem to hate the fact that he had hit her, but he made sign to the men, and before she could say a word one of the men slapped her and that slap alone put her to sleep.
They started laughing as she went straight to sleep.
"She is just sleeping, she will definitely wake up soon". One if the men said and started laughing.
"You need to be gentle, you cannot be slapping women with that your rough hand, are you trying to sqweeze her face?
Another replied, and they all started laughing again.
She initially thought she had seen the worse, but even if she survived this torture, she would never be the same again, her face is likely to have shifted, she would not be her self ever again.
She became unconscious, he then told the men something without saying it out loud before he left the hall.
The guards nodded their head happily.
They like harsh message, and they would nktind carrying out the harsh order that have been given to them
The place Sonia was kept looked like a hall, it was dark and hard nothing written on the wall so one could never tell where it was.
Though her eyes were closed, she was still scared.
She wish something could happen magically and she would be back at her house, where she could atleast tell her brother the truth, she owe him that much, atleast before she dies, because she is sure, that she is not going to survive this torture.
"I am sorry". She kept muttering.
The guards thought she was talking to them, so they replied her.
"There is no point pleading, if I were you, I will pray to God, I hear he gives last minute chance for living souls to repent".
Sonia thought hard about what he just said, and nodded in agreement.
She should be asking for forgiveness from God, and hope that Amanda would forgive her everyfault, when she finally finds out her involvement in breaking her home.
"God please forgive me".
She let out a tear, not because of all the slap she has received, but because she knows she has offended a dear friend, a special someone, and there is no way, she could make up for it, especially now that she is not sure of coming out of her present situation freely.
She also wish to apologise to Amanda, for being a household enemy to her, she allowed her quest for game and wealth get to her, and she still did not get those things.
She closed her eyes and said a little prayer, but she only opened her eyes almost immediately.
"He can never listen to me, he must hate my guts, to even think I can call on him now that I am on trouble, he can never listen to me".
She kept saying.
The guards could see her mutter something's, but could not make out what she was saying, so they let her continue muttering, while they discuss
**"****************************************
Tracy opened her eyes and tried to stand up but she could feel her hands were tied behind her, she looked around her surroundings but couldn't remember ever going to the place then she thought it must be a nightmare, and decided to bite her lip which she did, but was still in the same place.
she didn't see anyone, and her lips hurt badly, all her body hurts, it felt like she had been carrying bricks since two day without rest.
suddenly someone came in from the darkness, as the person move closer to her she could only try to figure out who was coming, as the person got nearer she saw her visitor was a woman, then she saw her face, it was Amanda.
""Amanda?
She asked rhetorically, she is the last person she was hoping to see in the hall, she looks as pretty as she remembers, but she was not smilling at her, she looked at her with mean looking eyes.
"I hope you are enjoying your stay here?
She asked, smilling now, but a sinister smile could be detected from afar.
"Where am I?
Tracy asked her back in return, which only made Amanda laugh loud.
She wondered when Amanda got so bold to even kidnap her, but looking at the face again she saw Sonia, she became scared, she started to sweat, she was so Afraid, she was so going down this time she thought, Sonia started to smile, seeing how scared, her smile turned to a serious laugh, she laughed wickedly that Tracy had to sit up on her chair, and struggled to free herself but all to no avail.
"I am here to finish you up, you slaying bitch!
She said and continued to laugh, then she brought out the knife.
"Sonia please, I am sorry, I had no choice, you have to believe me".
She begged, but Sonia only inch closer.
"Every one has a choice".
She reminded her.
She got so close to her, that she almost could not feel any space between them, and was about to stab her on the same spot she had stabbed her before, Tracy screamed and woke up, she woke up in a sweat, she was awake but her eyes were still closed, she didn't want to open her eyes even when she could feel her mother trying to wake her up, she was really scared of what she might see, with the gentle voice of the nurses and her mother and Dave including Dave's mother she opened her eyes, she saw that it was a dream, but she couldn't share the content of her dream with them.
Dave had never felt so sorry for anyone the way he felt for her, he wondered who could have come to his house to hurt his pregnant wife, he wondered what he had done to that person to get such a treatment, he wished he could find the person maybe all the answer would come out, but even his wife didn't want to say anything, and his sister that was likely to give him answers was still missing.
"Its just a dream"
Dave said as he went close to her, he saw her eyes she looked so scared, Dave knew that whoever she had seen in her dream was someone she knew maybe someone she had offended, she was too scared, she looked different from the girl he married, he wondered where all the boldness went, to think that they just got married and all these befell them he couldn't answer, he needed answers, he needed to know who was after him but he needed those answers from Tracy.
Dave wiped the sweat off her face, he wanted to be alone with his wife so he made a sign to the other inhabitants of the room and they started leaving one by one.
When Dave saw that they were now alone and he could talk, he asked.
"Who is after your life, and why?
