My head was throbbing I felt I was being dragged I kept my eyes closed and listen to any conversation they were having.The door opened and I heard 𝑚𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑖𝑝𝑙𝑒 footsteps walking into the small room "When is she coming? " "She is coming at 12:00 on the dot did you bring the 𝒃𝒐𝒐𝒌? "" Yes it's inside one of the boxes here "I was so of confused what book were they talking about? Who was coming? I didn't hear anything else, but they're were a light outside flashing " There's someone outside "Let's both go check it out and lock the door so she doesn't escape" they walked out the shed with the soundof chains following behind them.
I kept my eyes closed for a few minutes just to make sure they didn't come back.I opened my eyes and got up I looked around looking for my phone I couldn't find it "shit" I thought the veins in my neck started to stand out I moved over to the corner where the boxes are knocked on the ground. I kicked around the boxes away with my feet and I heard something dropped out of one them, I got on my knees and moved the boxes to find a book with a old waxy teal colored cover "This must be the book they are talking about" I whispered out loud and put the book in my back pocket I moved further into the corner and found my phone under a old cloth. I tried to turn on my phone, but it didn't turn on...it didn't turn on the veins start to throb on my forehead and I clenched in jaw in annoyance.
I got on all fours and crawled over to other corner I moved the boxes around desperately looking for something to break the windows with. I found a dirty blue chest with a crab design on the top I flipped the cover open inside the chest was a old sewing machine, nails, and bag of....puzzel pieces? I grabbed the sewing machine and the bag of puzzel pieces I put my phone and the book in the bag.
"This better fucking work" I thought as I picked up the sewing machine and threw it at the window. It crashed through the window and broke the window I covered my ears until the sewing machine fell to the ground I grabbed the bag and jumped through the window I winced in pain as a piece of glass cut through the sleeve and across my arm.
I ran back the path I took before I heard footsteps behind me I didn't turn back till I heard the noise of cars driving, people talking & laughing, and crunchy leaves being stepped on.
People were staring at me as I limped towards the police station blood dripping down my arm I pushes my uninjured shoulder into the door "Ma'am what happened to you? " a female police officer asked me looking at me concerned. "Yes I need help , but can we speak in private? " I asked her "Sure " she answered bringing me to a private room with one table and two chairs on each side I took a seat and she took a seat in front of me
"Tell me what happened to you" she requested in a soft voice
(After Eve explains everything to her)
"Wow that's a lot to take in".She said looking at me with a flabbergasted look on her face
"This is a very serious situation why didn't you first report this when you got packages sent to your house ? "
"I couldn't they are everywhere I am pretty sure they are watching me right now" I said
"You're safe they won't get you now moving on I need you to do something for me. Tomorrow I need you to come back do we can talk more ok? " she asked "Can I call a friend to pick me up? My phone is dead" I asked her she said "Sure" and gave me her phone.
