Trapped

Chapter 1

She was walking, looking around at her surroundings hoping to find the cafe that her friend told her about. The cafe was called “Cozy Cafe” much to her interest she had seen a few photos on the internet. It was downtown, where the cafe was located at. Obviously, she had never been to the cafe before, so she was a bit lost until she finally found it.

While walking, she notices someone staring at her, she doesn’t think much of it thinking that they must have been looking for someone else that was behind her. Was that person really looking for someone else, or were they looking at her? Once arriving at the cafe and entering it, she looks around admiring the place. After ordering, she sits at a table admiring the paintings on the wall when she notices the person who was staring at her enter the cafe. Obviously, she didn’t think much of it and thought it was a coincidence. The person sits on the other side of the room, reading a newspaper that was on a cart available for anyone in the cafe. When she was finished, she threw out her trash and left a tip in the jar for the cafe because of how much she liked the interior and exterior design of the building.

While walking home she realized that the person from earlier was following her. By now, she had realized that the person was stalking her. Her heart started beating faster, and she tried going with someone else to help her but they would all look at her weirdly and walk away. She didn’t even realize when she started running that the person had picked up their speed to catch up to her. She walked through an alleyway hoping to lose them. Looking behind, she doesn’t see them anymore, letting out a sigh of relief she continues walking until someone comes up from behind and puts a cloth to her mouth, making her pass out.

After waking up, she sees that she’s in a room, not any room, but a bedroom. It was really beautifully decorated until she realized that this wasn’t her house. She didn’t know where she was, she walked towards the door expecting it to open until she tried to but it wouldn’t budge. She came to the realization that the door was locked, she couldn’t unlock it because someone must have put a lock on it, preventing her from escaping. She looked around the bedroom when she also took notice that there were only two windows, except that they had metal bars, almost like a cage preventing anyone from trying to escape. By now, she has started crying for the reason that she wouldn’t be able to escape. Never being able to see her friends or family ever again. Never being able to figure out why this person kidnapped her, or why they wanted to. She felt trapped, as if there was no way out.
