"Have you ever been freed before" Skylar asks.
"Yes like four times, what about you" I ask as we made breakfast.
"We was taken from my when Bella was one month" she frowns.
"What happened" I ask.
"Well since they had the system of like having most of the girls in town be slaves and some guys. We was on that list, mom was teaching me who to make cookies and Bella was asleep. Their was a knock and they said if we don't come the easy way. They will take us by force. Me and Bella HAVE to be sold together. Mom told me to take care of Bella and be good. A week later the master of trade unit called me to his office and told me that my mom killed herself. He gave me the note she left for me and I always have it with me" she says.
"I'm sorry for your lost" I say softly.
"It's hard at time, I will have no where to go with Bella when I'm freed. I barely even started third grade" she says.
"You will have a place don't worry" I say.
"How" she asks.
"Don't worry" I smile slightly. "Where was your dad" I ask.
"My dad left us when he found out mom was pregnant with me" she says.
"Was your mom young when she had you" I ask and she nods.
"How did you get into this" she asks.
"I've never really had a year of being freed. Me and my sister been living on the streets since I was a couple months. Barely anything to survive..." I told her the whole story.
"Your life is rough, I couldn't image what you've gone through" she says. "Are you and your wife still married" she asks and I nodded.
I pulled my ring out my dress pocket "We don't wear it much so we won't get in taken away" I say.
"You should hide that, master will probably take it away and sell it" she says.
"I will" I say.
Master walks in and opens my cage. "Get out now" he says.
I quickly get out and he drags me out.
He does the same with Skylar. We go upstairs and of course the windows are boarded. So no sunshine can come in.
Skylar told me she hasn't seen day light in years. "Clean up this mess and my lunch better be ready when I get home" he say.
"Yes sir" we both said and he left.
•Jess P.O.V.•
I sat in the room with Kyle, Kaylee and Tara.
I read the book Layla made for Kyle to them.
Kaylee sat in my lap with her bottle playing with her feet.
"May I read it now, Aunt Jess" he asks.
I hand it to him and Tara helps him read. "I-in t-t-the..." He read.
Soon he finished and we clap.
"Good job" me and Tara smile.
The door opens and Jordan walks in "Hey bud" she messed with his hair.
"I read papa" he smiles.
She grabs the book "This the book mommy made for you" she smiles and looks through it.
"Yes" he says.
"She wrote a lot of stories in it" Tara says.
Jordan gives it back to him "Keep it in good condition" she says.
