Hidden

Chapter Three

Previous Chapter:
Ashlyn's dad pinned her down to the floor and is taking her to his car but she escapes and calls 911 at a convenient store.

It's been 5 days since my 'dad' has tried to kidnap me. I should've never let him in. Why would he even want me? He should've stayed with us and never left if he wanted me, oh that's right mom kicked him out.
Right now I'm at a recovery place because I'm suffering from major anxiety, i keep having dreams that he's going to come back but I keep it to myself. I get to leave with mom today, then I get to go back home. My 'dad' is in prison. I am very thankful that he went to court the next day after he tried to kidnap me because i was scared he would come back. He got fined 7 months in prison, I think that is too little but we will be moved by then so he won't be able to track us down.
I'm sad. I've grown up in this house, and we're not selling it but we're moving out of it and we're going to rent a house. We have to do it for our safety. It sucks but it's better to have less memories than be kidnapped I guess.

As mom shuts the door behind me and gets in her seat I turn on the radio, nothing but some old tunes to cheer me up. My mom starts a conversation with me because I guess she observes the silence between us.
"So you miss your phone?"
"Of course I haven't had it for a while because that place wouldn't let me have it, but to be honest mom, I'm scared to use it"
"Why sweet pea"
" The last time I used it for was when I called the police .. for .. h-hi.."
"It's okay I know who you're talking about"
"Mom I love you"
"Oh I love you too why just blurt that out of the random?"
"Because what if I really got kidnapped, I would never see you again"
"Don't say that, Ashlyn even if you did get kidnapped we would do everything and anything to try and find you, I would never stop and I'm sure you wouldn't either"
"Thanks mom you're amazing"
"No you are"
  After some silence we stop at my favorite. Chipotle. We go in and wait in line. I will admit I'm anxious to go out in public but with my mom by my side, I know I'm okay. I order chicken tacos and we choose to sit outside. It's a perfect day with a degrees of 73°. I go and sit down at a table and wait for my mom as I start to dig into my food. Suddenly I am startled by two hands on my shoulders and a sound that comes out as "GOT YA"
