Theme Song: The Isley Brothers - Voyage to Atlantis
Naomi's P.O.V.
The past 7 days have been pure hell. I've been beaten constantly, tortured, drugged, and starved. I can't believe this happened to me. However, a drug addict is my mother. This is all I know now. My body has actually gotten used to the drugs. It makes me feel numb and has been my escape. I crave it more than anything but I don't dare show it. Morris and my mother are in a room fucking each other's brains out. This is finally my chance to escape and find Laurent. God, I miss him so much! I slide my fingers out of the tight rope they have me bound to. The material roughly rubs against the cuts and bruises along my arms and hands.
Finally free, I look around the room frantic, scared, and anxious. With hazy, blurry vision, I see a window opened. Usually, I'm scared of heights, but if I wanna get back to my husband, I have to face my fears. I creep slowly and quietly towards the window. I heard their groans get louder, so I knew they were still having sex. No wonder Lilliana left his sorry ass. I jumped out the window, falling on my side. I ran the best I could a couple of blocks next to an abandoned building. "OMG Naomi!!! Everybody's been looking for you!!", I heard a young voice with an accent say. I look up and saw this beautiful, young girl with black, curly long hair and emerald green eyes, helping me stand up.

She was absolutely gorgeous. She sounded as if she was from the Caribbean. For some reason, I felt as though I could trust her. Suddenly, a car stopped in front of us and I thought Morris had come to finish me off. Emotion struck me once I saw Jennifer's face. She ran to me as I gave her the longest hug in history. Every emotion possible came out. "H-How did you find me??!", I asked between sobs. "Lau called us and told us you were missing. Plus it's been on the news ever since. I've been down here for the past week driving around since I know the area so well.", she said as she gave me a warm smile. She turned to the young girl who was gracious to help me and gave her a warm hug. "Thank you so much for helping her. What's your name, sweetheart?", she asked kindly. "Carolina. Carolina Rihanna Valentine. I've been worried sick since I heard it on the news. I'm just glad she's alive.", Carolina said as tears filled out eyes. I was finally free from that hellhole. My heart melted knowing that Laurent never gave up. None of them did. They both put an arm around me, helping me up. My body felt extremely weak and before I knew it, everything went black.....
Jennifer's P.O.V. I feel so sorry for her. Morris is definitely gonna pay for this shit!!! Carolina helped me place her in my car. Thank God she was there to help or I truly don't think Naomi would've made it on her own. Something is very different about Naomi. She just went through something very traumatic so I already know she's changed. I take down Carolina's number, promising to keep her updated on Naomi. Hugging her once more, I watched her run to her apartment. I pulled off, taking Naomi to Laurent. I really hope he's mentally and physically prepared for this.....
