A Stoic Heart (Completed)

Chapter 7:

Liana Fair

I sat on my bed mindlessly, my thinkings were blank, reasoning must have left me and everytime one of my dorm mates would move from their deep slumber I would nervously stand and tremble.

The shaking of my body won't stop and it seems my tears were all drained.

I can't tell anyone. I can't trust anyone anymore. If I tell Addi she might be harmed by Euro, I can't let my friend be entangled in this.

"I'm giving you until saturday to pack your things," Euro said before he leaves me in that room. Fortunately the sick man did not take me right in that cold floor.

"What? Why?" My voice was cracked as I asked him.

"because you are moving in with me, make up some excuses to your family or whoever that you need to talk to, you better not say a word about this or you know what happens next" his deep voice warned

"I don't have to make up excuses, I bet you already know that my parents are far from me" I snapped, trying to sound strong.

"That's perfect then, everything will go smoothly as planned." Euro left me with that like it was business that we just had talked about.

Wiping the sweats dripping from my forehead I decided I need to take some actions for myself. Today is thursday I have two days until the time Euro will get me.

I will ran tonight. I will escape this town like I did back in our place.

I stood and grabbed my bag pack. I tried not to make loud noises that will wake my dorm mates, they don't need to know what I'm going through.

I took out all the school stuff and skimmed my drawer for few shirts, pants and useful things that I could bring.

With shaking hands I put on my hooded jacket, I wear my rubber and zipped my bag close.

Looking over my bed and the things I own, my heart sank seeing I'm leaving again. Why does it has to be this way, why do I need to run and restart my life over and over

I descended fastly on the exit stairs, the caretaker was asleep in his couch.

Looking outside the dark street where the trees are still and foggy air is awaiting to sting my skin, I inhaled deeply as I plunged deep into the night.

Euro Zalmacio

I roamed my eyes inside the classroom, familiar faces stared at me. But one face is missing, Liana's.

I felt my body heating as my hands turned to a fist. My breathing was getting heavier, I felt the need to throw all the books away but I can't, not in this room.

"We'll resume our classes next week, I'll have someone to sub for me for the next days." I tried to say calmly.

As I closed the door and briskly walked to my office, I punched the nearest wall my fist could land at.

"No one is fucking running away from me!" I hissed and cursed.

How foolish of me to let the girl go I should have taken her prisoner that night. I never thought she had the guts to run away, she's suppose to be obey me!

I took out my phone and called my men.

"Sir?"

"The girl is missing!" I yelled at him. He knows who I am talking about, I ordered him to watch Liana inside the university.

"Find her in every damn corner of the city, place some men by the train station. I'll raise rewards for anyone who can bring her to my place as soon as possible" I ended the call and marched over the parking lot.

My hand was itching to slap her, how could she fucking do that.

My car engine roared to life and I literally drove to hell, flying back to my house.

"Wait till I get you back little mouse" I mumbled to myself.
