Chapter 15

Mia’s pov

The next day I didn’t feel like doing anything but Claire insisted that it might be better for me to recover if I was in my own home. Claire said she would come pick me up in an hour so while I waited, I grabbed my diary and pen and started writing down my thoughts.

Dear diary,

A lot has happened since the last entry. I don’t know how to explain everything that has happened but I am going to try. Firstly I was locked out after work and ended up with a concussion. Then a few days after I ended up being kidnapped. Being kidnapped was one of the scariest things I’ve gone through but that wasn’t the worst thing that happened. The worst thing is …… just thinking about what went down scares me down to the core. 

I was forced into a room closing the door behind him. He walked straight over to me pushing me onto the bed. Before I could react he jumped on the bed pinning my arms above my head. He started touching me all over. I couldn’t do anything. 

Before I knew it he ripped my underwear off throwing them on the ground and shoved himself inside of me. I was paralysed to do anything. Just lay there and wait till it was over. What I don’t understand is why all this had to happen to me. And why and how did Ryan Cage get my necklace? I never took it off.

End of entry.

Just as I finished writing I heard a knock at the door. I quickly closed my diary as I watched the door slowly open and Fraya poked her head in. 

"Hey"

"Hey," I said in a low voice.

Fraya walked over to the bed and sat down beside me. I knew by that look she was still concerned about me. But I am not ready to speak to anyone about what happened. 

"How are you feeling today?"

I lower my head looking down at my hands, "I'm fine"

"Mia, you don't have to hide your feelings with me"

I start fighting with my fingers not responding to fraya. She could tell I wasn't fine but didn't want to pressure me. She reached her right hand out, placing it on mine, making me jump. 

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you jump"

"It's fine"

She gently stroked my hand then spoke, "please come downstairs and eat something, anything. You need to eat. It isn't healthy not to"

I knew if I said no she would continue to nag me to come down and eat. So I took a deep breath then spoke.

"Sure"

Frayas mouth opened wide from hearing me agree. 

"Did I hear you right? You just agreed to come?"

"Yeah"

A huge smile appeared on her face. I didn't want to annoy or upset anyone else with what I have been through. I will force myself to eat something. I know I should be looking after myself better, especially in my case. I stood up walking over to the study table placing my diary in my small black bag. A few minutes later I was sitting at the kitchen table looking out the window.

Fraya was in the kitchen making scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages and toast with some orange juice. It smelt divine, making my mouth water. To be honest I wasn't hungry. But I will eat for them. Everyone has been worried about me every second of each day since I showed up. I love them all but sometimes a person just needs some space.

A few minutes later fraya brought the food over and placed it down in front of me. I gave her a slight smile and looked down at the food. It all looks delicious but to be honest I wasn't really hungry. I know if I didn't eat everyone would continue to make a huge fuss of everything I did.
