Chapter 4: Girlfriend

3rd person pov

Elsa taps her feet on the ground continuously, out of patience. She looks around once and then at her watch. It was 3pm already and Mavis still wasn't here.

Elsa wanted to whine. But stiffened when she saw the guards at a distance. Elsa then suddenly saw Mavis, a smile formed on her face.

Mavis ran up to Elsa. When she reached her, Mavis looked around and whispered in a low voice. "Sorry, I've been searching for the car keys, but can't seem to find them."

"Oh, are you coming?" Elsa whispered. Mavis nodded. Elsa flashed a smile. "Okay, I'm waiting here. Go bring the keys." Elsa sat on a bench nearby while Mavis rushed in.

Elsa was nervous as well as happy but mostly nervous because what if they get caught?

Time flew. Elsa continuously glanced at her watch. It had been 20 minutes since Mavis left. This made Elsa anxious.

"What are you doing here?" Jack's voice called from behind, making Elsa get startled. She stood up from the bench. "I just... wanted to get some fresh air, yk it's so hot inside!" She decided to act.

"Hot? Isn't there air condition in your room? Anyways." Jack walked upto her. He held her hand gently, but Elsa didn't feel gentle at all. But she didn't pull back.

"I need to tell you something-" Jack started but he couldn't continue as a drop of rain fell on their hands. Both of them looked up at the sky. It was starting to rain.

"We should go inside. You might catch a cold." Jack smiled sweetly that creeped the hell out of Elsa. But she nodded anyway.

Both of them walked hand in hand towards the door. More like Jack forcing Elsa to hold his damn hand. Elsa did feel unusual but let him do whatever he wanted.

She had understood by now that the only way to escape is to play along. Cause this kidnapper was creepy as hell.

By the time they reached the door, several guards came out of the door holding something in a blanket. Something long.

"What's this?" Jack asked, stopping to walk. "Uh.. A maid. She was at the terrace but she fell off. The fall was so brutal that she died." One of the guards explained.

Elsa was shocked. So... It was a dead body. Even though Elsa didn't want to, but she saw the face of the dead body. She gasped with shock as she saw who it was.

It was the maid Elsa was ought to meet at the yard and run away with. Elsa placed a hand on her mouth. She unknowingly went closer to Jack, after seeing those lifeless eyes of the maid meet hers.

Yes, the maid's eyes were still open. Jack felt Elsa getting scared. "Go hurry, bury her." Jack ordered. The guards nodded and took away the dead body.

Elsa felt guilty and depressed.

After seeing all this. Elsa was looking out of her window at a distance to a place that looked like a graveyard within the campus, the guards were burying Mavis.

Elsa's heart ached with pain seeing this sight. No, she didn't know Mavis before today but somehow it made her really sad.

Maybe she was the only one with emotions here.

"Did you sleep well in my room?" A female voice called from behind. Elsa turned around to see a brunette infront of her.

"This is your room?" Elsa asked. The lady let out a little bitter laugh. "Well, it used to be. It's no longer mine."

The lady glanced at the direction Elsa was looking at and saw the sight. "Oh, this? This is what happens when people try to escape this place."

"Oh... And you are?" Elsa tried to be as polite as she could. She just felt better talking to these women than being harassed by Jack.

"Katherine. I used to be the one who had Jack before you showed up." Katherine smiled bitterly. Elsa didn't know what to do or say. It wasn't her choice.

"What's so special about you anyway?" Katherine said. But it looked like she was talking to herself rather than to Elsa.

"Anyway." Katherine got to the point. "Jack hasn't eaten anything. Take this to him. I cannot see him starve." Katherine handed her a tray of food.

"Why should I?" Elsa protested. "I cannot see him starve and right now, you're the only person he'll listen to, unfortunately." Katherine sighed.

Elsa was about to protest again but something caught her mind. She decided to actually do what she's asked to.

It'll make her plan easier, to make him think she's starting to like her, gain his trust, let him give her a little freedom and use it to run away and report that piece of shit.

Elsa was directed to the room Jack was supposed to be in. "Go in." Katherine said and left.

Elsa took in a deep breath as if trying to motivate herself and remind herself that she needed to be strong to escape this place. She needed to act.

She walked in the room. It was dark. The lights weren't on. "J-jack, I heard you haven't eaten anything, so-" Elsa's eye fell on Jack's study where he was pinned by a woman.

The woman looked like she was seducing Jack. Elsa was so shocked that the tray fell off her hands and landed on the floor shredded in pieces.

Both of them looked at Elsa. "Who are you?!" The woman stood straight and yelled. Elsa didn't know what to say.

Jack stood up from his seat and walked upto Elsa. "Her? She's my girlfriend!" Jack's hand went behind Elsa. Elsa's eyes were trailing his hands.

Jack switched on the lights from behind Elsa and then stood next to her. "Girlfriend?!" The woman screeched. "I thought you didn't have one!!!"

"I told you so. This is my girlfriend, Elsa." Jack smiled down at Elsa. "Excuse me, girlfriend?" Elsa asked while she wondered if he knew her name all this time.

"Yes." Jack smiled again.
