My name is Darsy. Weird right?
My Mom said she wanted me to be unique so she named me Darsy. I asked her what it meant but she never told me. All she said was I am different, in a good way I think. There are many things I'd loved in this life but the most important one was my Mom and my dad too. But I had loved my mom more. But apart from my parents, I love art and anything that has to do with it, I had love drawing all the time. I would draw flowers, birds, houses, and many other things. But what I had cherished the most out of all my drawings was the drawing I had made of my mom. She was sitting under the three in our garden while reading a novel. And I just knew I had to have that portrait of her, but who'd have known that that would be the last portrait of her I would ever draw.

It was a sunny afternoon and was busy painting my favorite flower in the backyard. Then I suddenly saw my mom shaking after receiving a call. I was curious, but as I was about to approach her, she suddenly took some documents and went out secretly. It's the first time she was going somewhere without informing my dad, so I decided to follow her. And she didn't go far she stopped right at the house before ours. And she started talking to some people but I couldn't see them, I saw my mom give them something and she was talking as if she was begging them for something. Then when I finally decided to get closer to see their faces, they suddenly turned and started leaving so I could only see their backs.  They were two huge men and they had a spider tattoo each on their necks. I wondered who they where and why just at the sight of their figures makes me shiver. My Mom started coming back and I quickly returned back to our house and ran back to my painting spot. Mum came to me and she was smiling so gracefully as if nothing had happened, and yet I still saw a flaw in her smile. But you know when it comes to me she would cover up all her problems and shield me from the world. I felt like asking her why she is keeping secrets and what those men told her. I wanted to be there for my mom but what could I do, I was just 6 years old,
I couldn't do anything to help my mom. And because of that I suddenly wished I would grow up much faster.

My days went by normally since then, until one school morning.
Dad didn't go and drop me off at school today. He had some urgent work to do at the office and I knew it must be really urgent or else dad wouldn't miss a chance to be with me all the time. Oh and did I mention my parents jobs. My mom is a writer, a very famous one at that. And her books are known around the world. While my dad is an Actor, He is the famous Mr Don Paris, he was loved by all. And the Famous Mr don Paris married the ever gentle but gorgeous Cecilia Estelle and they became one soul. Their love story was known around the whole world. And naturally since I am a symbol of their unique love, I was born into the spotlight but I never liked it, I hated attention the most, I just liked to spend time alone with the ones I love. But I could never escape attention as my parents always took me to every event and functions they were invited to or the ones that they hosted. I remember how my mom always dressed me up covered in bows and ribbons, and I would end up looking like a little puffy cloud. "So cute" my mom would say.         
But even at school attention never left my side

So mum was the one that dropped me off today. She behaved really protective of me more than usual. And something felt off. I had a bad feeling about today and I wanted my mom to stay but she left right after dropping me at school and kissing me on my forehead ever so warmly.
After school I waited in front of my school gate for my mom to pick me up. I waited for an hour but she still didn't come. I became worried and decided to go to one of my teachers to call my mom for me, but before I turned back, two men approached me. I had never seen them before and I wanted to run away but one of them caught me and the other carried me up and into their black jeep. I was so scared and tried to scream but they covered my mouth and sped away. I started crying, I wanted my mom so badly but I was too weak to wriggle from their grip. And then we arrived at some strange place with abandoned buildings everywhere. I became even more scared and I started crying but it was all for no use. They took me inside one of the buildings and I saw blood everywhere and I freaked out even more. Then I looked forward and I saw my mom in the middle of two huge men. But they where wearing masks and I couldn't see their faces. But they looked like those men that my mom spoke to a few months ago . I shouted and wanted to go to my mum immediately. My mom saw me and started crying, shouting and struggling from the rope they tied her with. Then she screamed at them saying " you said you won't touch her, you promised me she would be safe so why is she here" my mom shouted. But instead they gave her a big slap on her right cheek. And she fell back and the force pushed her along with the chair to the ground. I was so furious that I couldn't stand that, how dare they touch my mom.
