As I walked out of the house I didn't have a plan all I had was run as fast as I can as quiet as I could be. I was glad I didn't hear footsteps or yelling that meant I got out and nobody had heard me. I ran to my rusty steps making good time, as I ran up the steps I heard something behind me. I realized it was just my neighbor trying to tell me to be quiet because it was 6:00 in the morning and he needed his "beauty rest". I opened the door and quietly closed it so I wouldn't disturb anyone else. As I got inside I ran to the phone and quickly dialed 911, but little did I know that Mike was in my apartment. "I came here to feed your dog, felt bad for her. Little did I know you were going to come back." He said. I didn't need to know it who it was because I knew that cold, chilling voice to know it was him. "What do you want with me?" I asked. I felt him come closer, "Well at first I though you recognized me, but when you didn't ask questions I knew you didn't and I was surprised. I thought you would have at least recognized my voice." he said as I turned on the light, there I stood face to face with my ex boyfriend. The one I thought I still loved, now I know I don't love him anymore I mean he caged me and Cherry up like animals and abused us. "Why did you do this? How can you even do that to me? I defiantly hate you now!" I yelled I didn't care anymore. This made me mad. " I really didn't know it was you until Butch said something, I know it seems bad but its a business, this is how I get money." he said. "Wow I knew you were cold but not this cold, this is a heartless business." I said, how can he be so heartless he stole girl's that had a good future and locked them up to a wall of an old abandoned garage where none of there family would be able to find them. " I know, I really don't want to do it but it's habit I can't break. I'm sorry." He finally spoke up, I had to think. He needs help, like now. " You need help, I can get you help." I say to him, I know he probably wont take the offer but you never know I had to try.  " I  can't they will send me to jail I'll never be able to see you again." he said. " So you just going to take me back to the garage." I say, is words came out they were a cold slap to my face.
