James had slapped Victoria for accidentally humming a tune in front of him. Victoria didn't know though, she only talk to Carlos and Becca. She never tell them what James like and didn't like, but what others didn't know is that Victoria had a phobia. Victoria's phobia was pistanthrophobia, the fear of trusting people. Becca and Carlos were the only ones who knew it. That's how Victoria and Becca became best friends. Becca loves Victoria as if she was her sister, she cares for her and welling to protect her from anything even if it gets her punished by James. When Victoria would go to Carlos or Becca. Victoria tries not avoid the other slaves, not right after what they were going to do. Victoria just didn't trust nobody, she can't even do anything to be sure that she should trust Carlos or Becca fully. Carlos set Victoria on her bed and hugged her. Victoria cried and cried in his arms.
"I am so sorry Victoria" Carlos whispered, she nodded and cried.
"I promise he won't never ever hit you again" Carlos said, Victoria nodded once again. Carlos rubbed her hand. That's when Alice came and stood there by the door, she stared at Carlos and she gave him a questioned look.
"Is Victoria ok?" Alice asked, Carlos looked down at her. She stooped cried and closed her eyes.
"Carlos?" He looked back at Alice.
"I think I can unlock the chain myself" Alice said to Carlos in her mind. Carlos had a little smile on his face.
"It seems to me..that you got determined" Carlos said, Alice nodded.
"And I'm determined to get out" She said, Carlos widened his eyes and thought.Alice doesn't even have a full plan..does she need my help?
"So tell..how are you going to unlock the chain?"
"Well I been watching Kendall unchaining me about these past few weeks and I got a hold of it" Alice said, she took a nail out of her pocket. The nail was a little beat.
"Alice, where did you fine that?"
"I found it in the closet"
"Was it on the floor?"
"Yes"
"Well, I think it might be useful but it will take some time..Alice..knowing your mind you properly will do it and I know you can do it" Carlos said. Alice smiled and left the room. Carlos looked back down at Victoria, her tears have stopped and she was staring at him.
"Victoria..I want you to start trusting Alice" He said, she looked at him frightened.
"She can get you guys out of here..I know she can..but start trying please" Carlos said, she sighed and set up putting a strand of hair behind her."Are you sure is it a good idea?" Victoria asked quietly, Carlos nodded and held her hand.
Yes, I'm sure it is..cause if you can trust me, you can trust Alice" Carlos said, Victoria thought 'I'll try' Carlos smiled and patted her leg.
"Ok..before we go to bed..I want you and Becca to talk..please" Carlos said, she nodded and he got up.
"I don't want the guys to think I'm giving you a break..so continue what you were usually doing" Carlos said, she nodded.
"Yes Carlos" Victoria said, then she got up and followed Carlos out of the door.

Becca was shock with how much strength that this 17 year old girl, the new slave has and she's already being determined. She knew the others weren't determined. Becca knew that if they tried to escape, they would be punished. But Alice made Becca think about it, she walked upstairs slowly to the attic door. Before she opened it, she looked at the stairs, Becca opens the door and slowly talked in. James grabbed Becca by her arm, pulling her close to him and he knew it too.
"So can you tell me about the connection?" James asked, Becca thought and tried not to make eye contact. Because she knew if she made full eye contact with James, he would know she was lying.
"Well I did talk to her" Becca said, he laughed and set her down on a chair. James chucked and sat on top of his coffin.
"These a other thing..do you want to know why I had you to came here?""No, not really"
"Well..to talk to you about something else what is going on?"
"😟"
"Well..it's actually more like a task I have for you" James said, Becca glanced at him and nodded.
"What is it sir?" Becca asked and look down.
"I want to know if Kendall has feelings for Alice."
"But sir! You know-" James stood up and slapped her, causing her to almost fall. Becca put her hand on her cheek and looked at James. James put his finger under her chin and pulled her closer, looking into her eyes.
"I just want to know if Kendall has feelings for Alice..can you compete a simple task or do I have to kill you?" James said, Becca nodded with fear and closed her eyes for a bit. Then opened them.
"Yes sir..but may I ask this one question?"
"What is it?" James said.
"Are you going to do it again?" Becca said, James laughed.
"Maybe or maybe not..but that's not for you to know..now is it" James said, she nodded and he sent her backWhy does he always want me to do this kinda job?
