            I sit in the crowd as my principal gives her speech. It was my graduation day, finally 12 years of school paid off. She announces the end and all the graduates, including me, throw our hats up into the air. The rest of the day was filled with goodbyes and pictures while I walked home to my dad.

You may wonder, what kind of dad wouldn't show up to his child's graduation ceremony, well mine definitely won't. I use my keys to unlock the door and I enter. I walk in the living to see a duffle bag and him sitting on the couch,

"What's this?" I ask, scratching my head in confusion.

"Pack your things" He says without looking at me,

"Where are we going?" I ask since I didn't get an answer for the first question.

"You'll see," He says, still not making eye contact.

Reluctantly, I trust him. I put my brunette hair up in a ponytail and packed some clothes.

"Pack what you need" He says looking over at me.

First time he made eye contact with me or even looked at me since I arrived home. Nonetheless, I continue packing. I packed leggings, joggers, a jersey and a hoodie. I also carried my toiletries.

My dad and I hopped into his car and he drove off. It was 30 minutes into the drive when I asked him once again,

"Where are we going, Are we going to visit mom?" I hesitantly ask him.

He doesn't reply. But I continue anyway

"Where are we?" "Answer me" "Where are we going?"

But he stays silent. I eventually stopped asking and fell asleep.

I open my eyes, I'm in a dark room tied up on a chair. I try to move but my hands are tied. Suddenly, a man in a black coat comes out from the dark, his hat covering his face.

"I'm going to ask you once, where are you?" he speaks. His voice is deep and he doesn't sound like anyone I know.

"I don't know" I say

"Wrong answer" He says

Suddenly, he pulls out a chainsaw and my eyes go wide.

"W-w-what are you going to do with that" I say as he turns it on,

"I am going to ask again, where are you?" He asked.

This time, I screamed and shouted because I knew what he was going to do.

"I DON'T KNOW, I SWEAR I DON'T KNOW" I scream.

He pays no attention to me and steps closer. I scream and shout, shaking the chair. Just as he raised the chainsaw and it hit my neck, I woke up.

"We are here" I hear my dad say.

I was still shaken from what I had just seen. At Least it was a dream. My dad steps outside the car and I follow after. A man stands there,

"Hello Harold" He greets my dad

"Here you go Marcus, now where is my money?" My dad asks.

Money.. WHAT MONEY.

"It will be in your account by tonight," The man says, whose name is apparently Marcus.

As he said those words, two men picked me up and carried me to a van. I kicked and screamed for dear life,

"DAD, WHAT'S GOING ON?" I scream while kicking my legs aggressively.

But my dad just ignores me, hops in his vehicle and drives off into town. I get thrown in the back of a black van. The van shifts left to right and over speed bumps. At some point, I just accepted it and fell asleep.
