Safer then Home

Chapter 1

I was really panicking, I was telling everything to my friend on the phone while trying to stay as discrete as possible. My friend was telling me to hide somewhere, that way he wouldn't find me and would think that I went with my parents. I would be with my parents normally but I couldn't go because of this fucking flu.

I told my friend that I had to hang up and did so and then put my phone on silence mode so it wouldn't make a sound while I had it on me. I was thinking of course that at one point I would be able to call the cops and then my parents. He was still picking the lock so I decided to sit up, I felt so sick but hey better feel sick then die. I hurried towards my bedroom door and then walked all the way to my parents bedroom to try to go through the window which had a row of bushes underneath.

The window just wouldn't open and I was scared of making even more noise so I looked around to see if they was anywhere. Of course !! My parents had a massive walk in wardrobe so I decided to go in there and hide in one of the boxes they kept in the back, behind my dads suits.

The man was walking through the door know so all I had to do was wait in that box until he realises I am not there and leaves the house. I was listening to his footsteps on the ground floor, he was really taking his time. I was having a really hard time breathing in that little box I just hardly fit in it.

The man was making his way up the stairs now and he went directly into my room which I thought was really odd, I mean how did he even now that was my bedroom ? And that I would be in there ? And how did he even now my name ?. I had so many questions but I wan't going to pop out and ask them all to his face.

I got really scared I started asking to myself what he would do if he found me, would he rape me ? Hit me ? Kill me ? Kidnap me ?

Oh god ! I went into my little world and hadn't even realised he was in my parents bedroom and he spoke.

Man: I know you're in here Lydia, I am not going to harm you. I am here to save you.

What he said creeped me out but what followed after that was worse... he just started laughing.

I felt light headed and everything went even darker then black.
