My Bodyguard Hates Me

~7•

In all my life I don't think I have ever felt like this.

Its everything at once.

Rage. Pain. Shame. Embarrassment.

Dead.

I was just minutes away from being raped.

What do I do?

His eyes don't make it any better.

He didn't try and comfort me when he brought me back in the room.

He put me back in the chair and just watched as I cried my eyes out.

When I had no more tears to shed. He tied me back up.

Like nothing had happened. He leaned against the table and his eyes traveled down the length of me.

Not in a sexual way but in a checking way.

He suddenly smacks his palm against the table.

Then he's out the door.

Screams of pure misery echo down the hallway and into the room I'm in. t

The door opens again but it's not him.

It's a woman. She has a kind of vampire look about her with the jet black hair tied into a tight bun and a very pale complexion like she hasn't seen the sun in a while. Her face is a heart shaped one with a very harsh expression that makes her look older than she really is.

She walks over to me and unties my hands. I softly rub at the red burning rings left by the rope.

She pushes the table closer to me and walks out of the room for a minute before coming back with a big plate of food.

I inhale it all in my mouth.

Not even wasting time on the taste of it.

The woman doesn't leave the room while I eat. She stands in the corner and just watches me.

Probably to make sure I don't grab the fork and stab her.

In a few minutes I'm done and she hands me a cup of water and I down it in a sec.

She comes to pick up everything and is about to turn to leave when I realize the opportunity I have.

My hand flies up to grab her arm and she's about to scream when my other hand clamps over her mouth.

I give her a pleading look, "Please help me! I have to get out of here. Can you get me out?"

In her eyes I see the doubt.

I can't blame her.

"Please! I have family. There are people out there that care about me and are looking for me. I don't want to die. I want to live. I want to grow up one day and have a house full of kids with a loving husband that will not sleep with his secretary after we hit that rough patch in a marriage. I want to graduate college as valedictorian and say a big fuck you to everyone that doubted me. So Please help me."

Probably a little over dramatic but it got the job done as I see her face soften.

I remove my hands from her mouth and arm.
