Stockholm Syndrome

Chapter 9

      After our little talk he started driving again. I wanted to know where we were and where we were going, but I didn't want to upset him again. I don't know how long we were driving but I knew it couldn't have been long since it was still dark out. I looked at the time and saw that it was almost dawn. Once Liu saw the sun coming up he cursed. "Shit, we'll have to stop for the day and continue at night." Noticing he was using my phone for a GPS he pulled over and typed something in. When he got what he was looking for we continued driving. He would take the roads that had less traffic until we were on a gravel road. He turned the car off at a house and got out. He didn't come back for a while but when he did I gasped. His face had drops of blood splattered and his jacket looked wet. "Come on, sit up." I did what he asked and he picked me up bridal style and carried me into the house. Going to the living room he dropped me onto the couch before walking away. I layed there thinking about the mess I was now in and sighed. "All I wanted was to come home and see my family, how did it come to this? Why was my chosen to be killed?" "You look insane talking to yourself, you know that right?" My head snapped to the direction Liu's voice came from. "Get some sleep we leave at dusk." I watched as he left the living room and listened to what he said and closed my eyes.
