"THEY KNOW MY SIBLINGS ESPECIALLY ADEM THE OLDER ONE WILL NEVER GIVE UP UNTIL HE FOUND ME"

 after hours of silence all I can think about is Noah's voice in my head what if his brother find out that  Noah is alive can he save him can i be saved with him ? 

How can adem find out I need to think hard.

I spent hours in the same position, trying to ignore the growing pressure in my bladder. All I wanted was to go to the bathroom, but there was no way to do so. The situation worsened as I realized I was on my period. Panic set in as I tried to press myself, but I was about to explode.

"WHAT'S THE MATTER? ARE YOU IN PAIN?" Noah's voice broke the silence. I thought he would never speak to me again after our earlier argument, but he looked genuinely concerned.

"I NEED TO GO TO THE TOILET, LIKE RIGHT NOW. I CAN'T HOLD IT ANY LONGER..." I felt my cheeks heat up, and embarrassment took over my feelings.

"DON'T," he said in a calm voice. I couldn't understand what he meant, or maybe I just didn't want to understand it.

"EXCUSE ME? DON'T WHAT? I DON'T UNDERSTAND." He smiled at me, but it was a pity smile, his eyes softening.

"YOU UNDERSTAND. DON'T HOLD BACK. NO ONE IS GOING TO TAKE YOU TO THE TOILET. I'M ALLOWED TO HAVE A SHOWER ONCE A MONTH. IT'S THE ONLY DAY I CAN USE THE BATHROOM. SO FEEL FREE TO... LET GO, AURORA."

He whispered my name as tears began to stream down my face. How could I? "NOAH, I CAN'T..."

Before I could finish, my body betrayed me. I closed my eyes as I peed in my clothes, in the same spot where I had to sleep, in the same dungeon that I shared with Noah. My sobs grew louder, and the pain in my heart became unbearable. Humiliation consumed me.

"IT'S OKAY, AURORA. YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE EMBARRASSED..." His voice was calm and soothing, but my eyes were still closed, my sobs uncontrollable.

"I'M ON MY PERIOD... YOU CAN SMELL ME..." I choked out. The thought of him knowing every time I peed, every time I bled, was too much to bear. I felt utterly exposed and humiliated.

He whispered back, "YOU KNOW THAT YOU WILL SMELL ME TOO? IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT, NOT MINE. IT IS WHAT IT IS, AURA. WE WILL DEAL WITH IT."

His words were meant to comfort, but they only highlighted the grim reality of our situation. Tears continued to fall as I grappled with my shame. How could we endure this? How could we survive in such dehumanizing conditions?

Noah's voice cut through my thoughts. 

"YOU'RE STRONGER THAN YOU THINK, AURORA. WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS TOGETHER."

I opened my eyes to see his face, filled with empathy and determination. For a moment, his strength seemed to bolster my own. I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. The humiliation was still there, but so was a flicker of resilience.

"THANK YOU," I whispered, my voice still shaky.

He nodded, his eyes never leaving mine. "JUST REMEMBER, YOU'RE NOT ALONE."

In that moment, despite the filth and the despair, a fragile bond formed between us. It was a small comfort, but it was enough to keep the darkness at bay, if only for a little while.

I was about to respond the door open and a man come into view 

"kitten HOW ARE YOU DOING ? " god i hate that voice i have to respond before he get mad because the question was for me and i need to say something am in no need for another slap .

"AM FINE.." 

my voice reflect my vulnerability and i hate to be this week but i am unfortunately he approche me with a steady foots kneel before me he was wearing a black mask as always i look at my bare feet my hands shaking i don't know what's gonna happen to me 

"COME ON kitten WE SHOULD RECORD SOMETHING FOR YOUR FANS " he said as he open my hands "YOU KNOW YOU'VE BEEN THE TREND  YOU WAS SO MUCH TROUBLE MORE THAN WE GIVE YOU CRIDET FOR " 

happy yeah i was happy that my friends are trying and there are fighting hard for me maybe they can do something...he dragged me out without even look at noah because they put something in my eyes "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS ALL THE RECORD THING?" I got a slap for my question .

"WE ASK ...YOU ANSWER NOT YOUR PLACE TO ASK kitten BUT BECAUSE YOU ARE SO BRAVE I WILL ANSWER THIS FIRST AND FOR YOUR SAKE  I HOPE IT'S THE LAST QUESTION" 

i breathed as am feeling my cheek heat up 

"Since our first video was sent to your family, a trend has emerged. Even the live broadcast we did was recorded, and we have gained a lot of money from it. People are talking, wondering if you are dead yet, so we need to make sure they see that you are still alive. This will serve as a promotion for your live death soon. We don't usually like to attract too much attention, but so far, it has been in our benefit."

He roughly pulled the blindfold from my eyes, and I found myself once again facing a camera. The flash was so bright that I had to close and open my eyes three times before I could adjust. "DON'T RAMBLE TOO MUCH," he snapped. "JUST SAY THANKS AND THAT YOU ARE ALIVE. YOU'RE GOING LIVE IN... 3, 2, 1, TALK."

My mind was reeling. What should I say? I had to thank them, but more importantly, I had to make my plea. As I opened my mouth, the words flowed out naturally, driven by a mix of fear and desperation.

"I WANT TO THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT. I'M ALIVE TODAY BECAUSE OF YOU. THANKS TO EVERY PERSON WHO HAS HELPED ME, WHO HAS FOUGHT FOR ME... AS YOU CAN SEE, I'M NOT IN A GOOD STATE, BUT I'M NOT DEAD EITHER, AND THAT'S A GOOD SIGN."

This might be my last chance. My death was imminent, and my time was running out. The man showed me the time—three minutes left. This was probably my only shot at getting a message out. Hope and fear battled within me, but hope won out. Without thinking further, I took a deep breath and made eye contact with the camera.

"AND BEFORE I SAY GOODBYE TO MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS, I WANTED TO SAY..."

I paused, knowing that this moment could change everything. The man was glaring at me, his impatience palpable. I took another deep breath, my heart pounding in my chest, and then I spoke as quickly and clearly as I could.

"NOAH MARECHTTI IS ALIVE. HE'S HERE, IN THE SAME PLACE AS ME. THEY'VE HAD HIM FOR THREE ..." bang it all happened so quick as the words leaved my mouth i heard the sound of the gun and all i saw after that was black .
