Beauty and the Brains (UNDER RECONSTRUCTION)

Chapter nine

BETH'S POV:

My hairs unhealthy, skin filthy, i stink and i'm covered in bruises cuts and dry blood. I cant even see through my glasses properly there that dirty. I was asleep and just staring into the darkness that en-loped my mind. Every thought, happy times, sad times, have all been devoured by the darkness in my mind. I heard a key and footsteps coming towards me. I'm to weak to open my eyes. 

I felt the cuffs fall off my wrists, and my almost lifeless body picked up from the ground. Moments later i felt cold water hit my body which then turned into warm water. I opened my eyes but couldn't see since i didn't have my glasses. "Where am i?" was my first question "who is there?" was my next. I heard a woman's voice say "The middle of the forest" and before she answered the next question she handed me my glasses. I put them on and looked at the woman kneeling by the bath "I'm your servant, anything you need tell me and i'll get it for you".

After a while she handed me a towel and i wrapped it round my body as i stepped out. YES! I'm clean! Thank God. I don't feel sticky anymore. She wrapped a bandage around most of my left arm so that my wounds would heal properly. "There's clothes in the dresser and wardrobe. If you need me i'm down the hall". She smiled and walked out of the room.

I walked over to the dresser and put on a red tank top and black jeans with a pair of black converse. Urgh great tank tops are the only ones in there. So now if i walk in the halls everyone can see my arm perfect. 

I walked out of the room and in the direction of voices. "Oh hello hun what can i do for you?" the woman who was in the room with me earlier asked. "Umm. Is there any long knit cardigans around?" i asked. She held her finger up gesturing shed only be a minute. She handed me a white long knit cardigan and as i put it on she said "Are you going anywhere?". "Just for a walk about. I need some air" i said "oh umm. How did you get this cardigan?" i asked. "There was a bag of things that were dropped off for you a few minutes ago" she replied. "Oh ok. I'll be back soon" i said beginning to walk away. "Oh if you go down the staircase and turn left then the two double doors are the cafeteria. Get yourself some food" she shouted down the hall. "Ok" i shouted back. 

I did as she told me to and walked in through the double doors. I was handed a tray with a plate of pretty good looking food for where ever i was. I went to an empty table at the back which was in a bit of darkness so i didn't draw attention to myself. I sat down at the bench and felt something bend in my front pocket. I went to take whatever it was out and realized that these were my jeans. If these were my clothes then i'm guessing i'm gonna be here for a while.

I unfolded the bit of card type paper thing and saw that it was a photo. I read the title on the back which said "Beth and Ivy, birthday aged four". Seeing that made me smile. I didn't realize tears had escaped my eyes until i heard a males voice say "are you ok?". I nodded and looked up at the person sitting across from me. "Yeah fine" i smiled and handed him the picture. He looked about my age and looked like someone i knew. Same hair and eyes as me. Hmmm.

"Marshall" he said holding out a hand for me to shake. "Beth" i replied shaking his hand. "Miss her don't you" he said handing me the picture. I nodded at that. We were talking about family for a bit until i stopped that conversation "Sh, sh, sh" i said getting up and walking over to the TV that was on that wall. I was watching the news report and folded my arms over my chest which hurt.

"News just in. The parents of the missing twin Bethany Rhys. Are supposedly not the twins birth parents. In fact they are identity thief's. Police are doing throw investigation to find the true information of the twins parents. Also the twins supposedly have a twin brother so in fact they're triplets. He is also no where to be seen. Remember if you have any information on the disappearance of the two girls call the umber below" the number panned across the screen for a few minutes and disappeared.
