Unseen but brightly burning

Chips

            ~Lillian Davies~

I was a fool for drenching myself in the rain. I have been stuck in my room for like an eternity( WHOLE TWO DAYS MAN!GIMME A BREAK) because of my cold.

Being stuck in my room alone was the worst. It basically sucked because Krissy was not blessing his presence to me because of a basketball game he had at a different town. Meaning he was out of the town throughout my sick, lonesome journey. But why did I not know he had this big match going? I will punch him in the throat the moment he comes back.

Dad was here. But he would just come to my room to make me eat food and medicine. He is a total caring dad.I love him. He chatted with me of course but about stuff I did not want to talk . Anyways, he had work so he couldn't stay with me for the whole time. He insisted on staying though but I declined. Because I did not want more vegetables to stuff my face with(though he had cooked more vegetables before going out).I love my dad but I hate the vegetables. Well, now I am all alone again until Krissy comes back by the evening. And I want chips.

Sliding myself from the bed, I slipped my cute feets into my cute slippers. I went downstairs to grab myself some chips and watch Netflix. If lucky, maybe I will find some hot chocolate waiting for me down there too.

"Nothing!" I shouted in frustration. Basically 'tried-to-shout' ,I mean remember how I caught a stupid cold . I literally searched the whole house for the chips. Not a single bag and furthermore,there were not even a pack of coffee.ONLY VEGETABLES CAN BE FOUND THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE HOUSE! Forget the hot-choco, I need something to chew on.

And for the chips, I am going to drag my butt to the store .

"Okay, I dragged my butt in here.Now, lessgo and buy myself some chips." I mumbled to myself. If dad comes to know, I have left my sick butt from the bed, he will kill me.Just joking, he will just be sad not even angry. He will just beat himself up for not being a good parent. I mean who is he kidding? He is the best parent I have known in my life. My sweet dad must be kidding himself. Still for precaution, I need to hurry before dad comes home and not see me there.

"Okay I have got my chips. I just need to buy some packs of coffee now and run to home. " I mumbled to myself again. Okay,yes I am a mumbler. Forget that. I have a crisis. I didn't check the time until I got here. And I have got ten minutes before dad comes home. Our house is ten minutes walk from the store but who am I kidding? I am a slow walker that means it will take at least thirty minutes if I slow walk myself to home.

Checking out all my stuffs at the counter, I tried to fast walk out of the store. But one problem was MY LEGS WERE NOT MOVING AND I WAS FEELING MORE  SICK RIGHT NOW.

"NO NO! PLEASE DON'T GIVE OUT NOW MY CUTE LEGGIES ! GIVE OUT WHEN WE GET HOME !" I whisper shouted to my legs.

With all the energy left in me, I got myself out of the store. Thank God! But now my butt is sitting down on the cold space infront of the store. I couldn't feel my body and my visions were starting to get blurry. Not even one eye was working. "STUPID CHIPS! I SHOULD HAVE JUST LET THOSE VEGETABLES CHOKE ME.!" I scolded myself. I am not even worried about dad now, I was worried about my dumb butt. And I didn't even bring my phone with me. A WONDERFUL SITUATION. I am starting to not feel my body and I can't breathe. This is  happening and that's not good. I need to go home right now. I need to get help.  

"Suddenly everything turned upside down. Instead of laughing,it was filled with cries. Momma was shouting. She was crying out loud. Glasses were shattering, there was blood. The car was rolling like a marble. After a while,it came to a stop. We were upside down.  I looked at momma.  She was looking at me. She was fully covered with blood." A memory flashed infront of my eyes.

"No no please not now. Not here. No God please no!" I said crying. " I need to get up. I need to go home." I whispered crying to myself.

"Suddenly, there was fire coming from behind. I kept shouting, " Momma there is fire. Momma there is fire.Dadda!" The fire was coming close. I was trying to move my hand to call my momma. Why wouldn't she move? She kept staring at me while blood dripped down from her head."

"Someone help please. Dad!" I tried to shout. I could feel the glasses piercing through my skin. "Dad! Krissy!" I whispered. Someone please help.

"Hey you okay there? Do you need help?" A voice asked me. Thank you.

"I need to go home. Could y-you please help me get home? I can't move." I said slowly trying to keep my eyes open. 

The man leaned down." I need to check your temperature. I need to touch you for that. Can I?" He asked softly. I nodded."Hey its gonna be okay. Aren't you the girl from back there?" He asked checking my temperature. What girl? From back when? I want to ask.But he shouldn't be asking that to a sick person right now.

"You are burning up. Can you tell me your address? Or you can just give me directions. Can you do that for me?" He said softly. I nodded.  

"I am going to pick you up now. Is it okay?" He asked again. I nodded softly trying to bite back a smile.

He picked me up as if I didn't have weight. If only I was not sick. "Is it uncomfortable?" He asked softly walking.

"Nope.It's really comfortable. Can you please keep talking? I need to distract myself."I said leaning my head on his shoulder.

He nodded."Can you give me the directions to your home?"He asked softly. 

"You need to keep walking straight till that big tree and then turn left and after walking for sometime you can see a board 'Davies,our sweet home'. That is my home." I said slowly like my walk.

He nodded again. "You can keep your eyes closed if that makes you feel better." He said softly. Why is his voice so soft and familiar?

"Promise that you won't kidnap a beauty like myself." I said closing my eyes.

"Can't guarantee that,beautiful. But I can tell you my name so when you escape, you can tell the police my name and I can be arrested. That seem okay with you?" He asked chuckling.

I smiled. "Sure why not?"

"Leo Adger is this kidnapper's name,beautiful." He said. His voice seemed too pretty for my sick ears.

"Well,Leo Adger the beauty you are kidnapping is Lillian Davies here." 

"Pleasure to meet you,Lillian Davies." He said with his pretty voice . 

Nope the pleasure is all mine.
