"Ello there
love." my captor's voice is, as always, cruel and tinged with a strange
accent.
My head whips
around, hair flying despite the rats nest its tangled into,"I'm not
talking to you."
"Still a little
priss I see." sure I sound like a priss but it's not like he deserves
better.
"Now love tell
me your little secret."
"What makes you
think I should?"
"Perhaps the
fact that nobody even knows that you're
gone. They won't even be lookin ya for weeks now love"
"I'm sure
they’ve noticed. The police could be busting in your door right now!"
That startles him
and he looks over his shoulder at the door. It's way up at the top of the
stairs and just barley visible by the twinkling of the knob.
"Oh very clever
love. Got me all confused for a sec there"
"Well that's
not hard. You aren't the sharpest are you?"
"Why you
little! One of these days. One of these days you're gonna spill all your dirty
little secrets. And maybe I'll get to keep you as a reward when I tell the
bosses all you know." this is when I know to stop. He drops the accent and
his voice lowers becoming menacing. I cower as far back as I can, being on the
floor with on hand tied to the bedpost.
"I'm sorry.
Please don't hurt me."
"No love. I
won't hurt ya yet. But it'd be easier on the both of us if you'd just..."
"No! I'll never
tell you!" he raises his hand as if to slap me before slowly inhaling and
lowering it.
"One day love.
See ya tomorrow."
