The New Girl

Where Am I?!

I woke up in a dark room and looked around me. I had no idea where I was or how I got here. All I remember was going to Aljaz's house and meeting his Mum on the way.

"Mrs Skorjanec?! Where are you? Where am I?" I shouted to which I got no reply.

"Somebody!! Anybody! Help!!" I shouted again, this time I heard someone laughing, it was Aljaz's Mum.

"Quite the little actor you are aren't you?" She said kneeling down in front of me. I moved away from her and started to cry. What had I done to make her hate me so much? I tried to stand up but that was when I realised my feet and hands were tied and I was trapped.

"You do realise Aljaz and my friends are probably looking for me right now? You aren't going to get away with this!" I suddenly wasn't scared of her anymore, I just wanted out of here.

"Janette this is my secret room, no one knows where this is, not even my Husband knows about this place! No one will find you unless I want you found, and you and I both know that isn't going to happen!"

"What did I do to make you hate me so much? I can't help it me and Aljaz love each other! You can't just kidnap me for that!" I said with tears rolling down my cheeks. I started to feel scared again and I just wanted to go home. "Please let me go!!"

Mrs Skorjanec just laughed and left the room. I curled up into a ball and cried hysterically.

"Mum, Dad, Aljaz!! Please help me!" I cried. I lay there for a while before I started to search for a way out of here. I wasn't going to let her defeat me that easily, I may be small but I'll fight anybody! I managed to get my hands free and untied my feet, I made sure I did this quietly incase she came back. I looked around and saw a door in front of me, I ran to it and tried to open it but it was locked.

"Surely there's a key somewhere..." I thought to myself. I started searching for the key when I heard it opening again, I knew this was Aljaz's mum coming back. I thought to myself I could go back into the corner and not let her find out I've escaped or I could risk it all and make a run for it when she opens the door. I decided to take the risk and run. I stood behind the door waiting for Mrs Skorjanec to open it, I waited until she was in the room before I ran out but when I did I tripped and she heard me!

"And where do you think you're going?!" She shouted. Oh no, that's it I'm dead, I'm never getting out of here and back to my parents and Aljaz.

"You can't keep me here Mrs Skorjanec!! I want to go home! Aljaz help me!!" I tried to shout out the door but his Mum grabbed me and threw me into the corner before I got the chance. I put my hand to my forehead and felt it was bleeding, now I was really scared because I knew that she wasn't afraid to hurt me.

"I've already told you Janette, unless you agree to break up with Aljaz and never see him again, you aren't going anywhere."

"You can't stop us from seeing each other, we're in the same year in school. And I don't think he would be happy if you moved him from school."

"Janette I'm his Mum, I have a say in what happens, and if I say he's moving then he's moving."

"No you can't do that! I love him and he loves me, why can't you accept that?"

"I don't have to answer to you!" She said pushing me down and grabbing the rope and tying my hands and feet together again. I tried to get away from her but she was just too strong.

"Mrs Skorjanec please stop! I just want to go home!"

"Well that isn't happening!" She shouted as she walked out and locked the door behind her. I began to cry again knowing that I was never going to see my family or Aljaz again.
