*
Celia sat in the passenger’s seat in fear as the big boss drove off, she doesn’t know where he was taking her or what he plans to do with her but she obediently followed him thinking of an escape.
With a word, he took her away from the loan shark little boss, and they’re on thier way to nowhere. He gave her his jacket to cover the sleeveless gown, and she inwardly commended him for it.
Sitting next to him, she was able to check him out. She might be frightened by him, but she still steal few glances at him like she could read his mind through them.
He was clad in ordinary suit that matched his well-built body. If she bumped into him again, she felt like she could hurt her head in the process.
And his face… she couldn’t take a close look because of his dark sunglasses — wearing sunglasses in the night was thug-like to her because that’s obviously what he was.
The aura he possess was like that of a loan shark big boss that he was, a thug leader that kidnaps young girls like her to satisfy thier desires.
She jotted out of her thoughts the moments she realized what she was thinking.
Her stomach grumbled and she looks at the big boss in embarrassment.
The only thing she had all day was hotdog, but she expected her stomach to read the room.
“Are you vegetarian?” he asked, and she shook her head — she wouldn’t have made it that far if she was.
That was the first time he spoke to her since they left, and his voice… his voice was breathtaking.
“There’s a restaurant along the road, you can get takeout there,” he said, and she looked at him wondering why he was being kind ro her.
“I’m good,” she managed to say, even though she wasn’t.
“That’s for me to decide. You’re mine, I own you now. So I’ll be the judge of that,” he said, and she looked at him even more terrified.
He was acting according to the aura she predicted, and her only escape was to breakout through the window and run for her life, but she couldn’t.
*
He ordered the food for her but she had no appetite to eat.
“Is it not to your liking? We still have a long way to go, so you have to eat,”
“I… I—….” she stuttered, and an idea popped into her head, “I get indigestion when I eat in a moving vehicle,” she said, and he smirked.
*
He parked along the road, and gave her a look.
“Eat,” he blurted, and she nodded.
She wasn’t expecting him to pull over for her.
She took a small bite from her meal stealing glances at him in fear.
“I… I… can’t eat when someone is…” she was saying
He removed his dark sunglasses, scaring even more. She instantly got a perfect look at his face, and her predictions were just right. His built body, and firm face gave her creeps.
*
He stepped out of the car for her, and she couldn’t help her anxiety. She glanced outside trying to find an escape but there seemed to be none. She was alone with her new owner in a remote area.
He returned to the car after about half an hour and looked at her food that was still untouched.
“Salad… there is no salad there. I can’t eat without salad,” she lied.
He seems to be giving in to her request, so she intend to push him till she finds an escape.
“Then we should keep going, we will get it on our way. It’s late and a lot of restaurants are closed
“No!”
“What?”
“The food… it’s getting cold,”
“So, what?”
“We can just go to a restaurant to eat instead. If we find anyone that is opened. I normally don’t eat takeouts, the flavor reduces in the package,” she said, rushing her words in fear, and he scoffed.
**
He pulled over at the next restaurant that was opened along the way and she placed her order while he sat opposite her, staring directly at her through his sunglasses and she could barely swallow a bite.
“I… I… I already told you I can’t… you’re staring directly at me,”
*
He excused her and went to seat at an empty table few tables away from hers. She had no idea what he plans to do with her and why he was obliging to all her demands, but she knew that she needed to run. Getting involved with bad guys was really not her thing.
She managed to have few bites and steal a glance at him and his gaze was focused on her. She stood up later and he also did the same.
She pointed at the restroom and he nodded, and she could feel his eyes glued on her till she was out of sight.
She entered the restroom and started thinking of an escape.
She can’t possibly call the police because she wasn’t with her phone, and she didn’t want to get anyone involved.
She took the toilet sanitizer and sprinkled liquid to her face before she turned on the running tap.
She has been through a lot in my life so escaping some big boss shouldn’t be a problem.
She rubbed little from the liquid on my lips and pretended to pass out on the floor.
Few minutes later, she heard a voice barging on the door until they finally got access in. After much exclamations, she was rushed to the hospital and she opened my eyes when she confirmed that she was alone with the doctor.
“Doctor,” she called, and the young doctor looked at me in shock.
“Miss, you—…” he was saying, but she cut in.
“No, don’t shout. Is a tall guy here?”
“A tall guy… he must be the man outside. He said he is your guardian,”
“No, he isn’t. He is some loan sharks big boss, my father is his debtor and he is holding me hostage. I faked suicide to escape him, but I might really commit suicide if I leave this place with him,” she cried.
That was the truth, but that suicide part was just an exaggeration because she knows that she will find a way somehow, as she always does.
“But… he said he is your guardian,”
“No, he is not. They’re all lies,”
“What do you want me to do? I’m just an intern here, maybe I should alert others,” the young doctor said, but she was quick to hold him.
“No! That would be worse. He is a really dangerous man. I’m terrified, my life is in danger,” she cried harder, and the doctor looked at her in pity.
She heard footsteps approaching and closed her eyes immediately.
The curtain suddenly opened and the big boss barged in.
“Doctor, how is she? You’ve been here for almost an hour, how is her test results? Will she be fine? Does she have to be admitted?”
“Sir? I… ehn… I mean… I’m just an intern here. I came to check on her temperature, and she is still asleep as you can see,” the doctor said, and started hiccuping.
“Let me talk to the professor in charge,”
“What? Professor?”
“Are you deaf?” the boss shouted, startling the doctor.
“Yes… I mean, no. I’m not deaf. And the professor is busy, you can’t just see her when—..”” the doctor was saying but the big boss hissed aloud.
“I’ll see the director instead. John Williams,” with that, he stormed out.
“What? What do you want to do with my name? And you can’t just see the director!” the doctor shouted.
“Doctor, what do I do?” Celia cried, and the curtain opened again.
The doctor spun around in fear to see a senior doctor.
“Dr. Jack…” he cried, and embraced the doctor.
Dr. Jack was taken aback as he stared at Celia who was also in tears.
*
The big boss returned to the ward accompanied by the director and they were startled to see police men in the ward.
“What’s going on here?” the hospital director asked.
“It’s him, he is the man who abducted me, he is the big boss of the illegal loan shark people,” Celia said, pointing at the big boss.
“What loan shark?” the hospital director asked looking at the big boss who chuckled.
“Sir, Miss Celia Bennett filled a restraining order against you, so you have to stay 50 meters away from her,”
“On what grounds?” the big boss asked.
“What do you mean loan shark? Luca here is a good friend of mine,” the director said, and the two doctors flinched in fear.
“I don’t care if he is your friend or not, but that man abducted me from a loan shark! They want to sell off my organs to repay my father’s debts! Officers, take him away from me,” Celia lashed in tears.
“Sir, you will have to stay away from her, else, we will escort you to the station,”
“What precinct are you from?” the big boss asked, and the police officer scoffed.
“This is my ID, so respect yourself,”
“Because I’m a loan shark? Well, this is mine,” the big boss said, and showed them his ID card, and they gasped upon seeing it.
“There must’ve been a misunderstanding here. You can’t be a loan shark, you’re the chairman of Saint foundation,” the police officer said, and the others gasped expect Celia.
Celia realized that the room wasn’t going to favor her, so she removed the drip from her body and ran out of the hospital.
“Get her!”
“Miss!”
They shouted and wanted to run after her, but the big boss stopped them.
“Let her be. I’m sure she is fine. I apologize for the troubles,” the big boss said, and excused himself.

Celia struggled to open her eyes and was startled to see herself in an unfamiliar room. She get up weakly and looked around.
“Where am I?” she grumbled in fear and started wondering if the loan shark big boss got her again, “No, no, that can’t be,”
The door suddenly burst open and the big boss emerged in accompanied by the little boss and thier men.
“No, no, no, this can’t be,” she cried, and started looking for an escape.
“You can’t run away from me, damsel, DAMSEL, Dam-sel, D-am- sell because you’re mine you are mineeeee!” the big boss said, laughing evilly.
“Nooooooo!” she screamed as he walked closer to her.
*
She jotted up from bed immediately, and her cousin who was sleeping next to her also woke up in fear.
“Celia, are you ok?” Emma (her cousin) asked, and Sen broke down in tears.
“The big boss…” she cried.
“You’re free now, free from him. You’re in New York, you’re with me, no one can hurt you anymore,” Emma assured and embraced her.
Yes, she escaped from him, she fleed Chicago while she can, and retreated to New York.

Let’s hope he doesn’t find her.
