I'm Sorry

My Father

I couldn't believe it! My real father is alive? My family told me he died in a car accident about 10 years ago.

I hesitated but I replied. "How can I be sure you're my father?" He held out a picture of him and my 4 year old self in a photo cuddling. I started to get emotional, today I finally saw my father after all these years . I ran and leaped to cuddle him, I wasn't sure if I would see him again.

I quietly whispered "why did you kidnap me?"

You're my daughter and you are living in danger."

"What danger?" I quickly asked.

he hesitated and told me "you're too young to understand but tell me this, never go back home?"

"I won't, but father, what will happen to the rest of the family?"

"Nothing." He said as he started to tear up.

I didn't believe it was nothing, but I wasn't going to go back home, yet.

But I would miss Jake, Mum and my brother, Liam. I found some papers on my desk, my father had kept from when I left this room. I started drawing a plan to escape with a blue pen. I didn't know where my house was. My next plan was to get my phone back, that my father had probably hid it somewhere.

I yelled "where is my phone?"

He ignored me.
