The light in my darkness ✅

🌕CHAPTER 14🌑

Caroline's point of view

He pulled me out with him and before I could ask him who he is, he gentle shove me in another man's arm.

"Guard her with your life," He said, I could hear the Australian accent.

The man nod his head and held my arms behind my back.

"Not like a prisoner, Martin. Hold her normally and get her to the van."

Who is this man?

"Come with me," The man beside me, said. I could smell gasoline coming off him. The other men scattered about and then I saw what they were going to do as I got pulled away by my arm. They were going to destroy the place.

That means there is no way, these men aren't Walter's men. Does that mean I can breath safe? Where are they taking me? To which van?

"That's taking too long, throw a bomb in it and let's go!" The Australian voice said.

"We will get attention boss, we can't do that."

"This is nowhere, I don't give a damn, we will be gone by then, leave no trace behind and bomb it. I want to hear the loud crash when I get around that side!"

I hear him bark, although he didn't even sound angry.

The man walked really fast with me, so I had to run along. Soon we both were running. I even laughed.

"What's so funny?"

"You were told to protect me with your life, you are running like a thief, are you afraid to die?"

He looked at me and grin. You could see he didn't smile so much, a beautiful smile like that has to stay hidden working against bad men.

"Shit, ah, my jaw hurts, I haven't smile in a long while, miss red."

"Miss red?"

"Yeah, you have awesome red hair, come on, the van is over the other side."

For the first time, someone makes me feel amazing by commenting my hair, a hair that was meant to be a curse.

Remember you should keep your guard up, you don't know these men.

I was soon near the train track.  We stopped and I look around me.  As soon as we stopped a loud bang could be heard over the mountains. Fire sparks filled the air.

I felt a little thug on my hand and looked down to see 'Mr supposed to be brave' stooping down, protecting his head with the other arm. The particles were far away from us. I couldn't help but laugh.

I might as well laugh when I can

It's me that haven't laughed in a while.

"Come on, let's get to the van."

***

We had ran across the train road and over bushes, rocks and I could swear I saw a dead frog there. My body shudder.

"You were supposed to be here already, Martin," I look up to see the same man in the van this time.

"Huh, hmmm, boss-"

"It's alright. Get in," He pulled the van door  and mentioned me to get it.

Suddenly, all the fear of men return. I never felt safe around any men, until. I must say maybe Talat.
I was probably getting comfortable around Martin because of his loophole personality. Now he stood rigidly, his face grim. They look like complete strangers which they are.

Which they are.

Which they are!

I slowly entered the car then I realized one of my shoe is missing. I had thrown it at the camera and all along, I had forgotten about my shoes.
