I wake up to find myself tied up in a van. I look up, and i see a guy whom i assume to be Justin. All i can see is his back, but i can still hear his conversation. God knows i'm not prepared for what i hear.

"You're gonna have to pay in the deposit sir, cuz i already have her here." I hear him say to the person on the other end. The place is really quiet, so i can strain to hear the person's reply.

"Okay fine. I'll send it to your account." The person replies in a lazy tone. I really want to believe this is my imagination, but this voice sounds really familiar. I can't just point a finger to who the person actually is.

"Or, how about you come here and deliver it yourself." Justin suggests.

"You lazy b**** what is so hard in going to cash the money from the bank yourself." The guy replies angrily. "I think i have to find someone else to do this job for me."

"Fine. You think you can find someone who'll take out her liver without them being traced? Goodluck with that." Justin deadpans.

WHAT!!! Whose liver are they talking about?

Oh God this isn't happening,

First i'm kidnapped by some strane guy whom i haven't even seen his face yet, and then, they're talking about taking my liver? I thought all kidnappers just wanted money. I just hope he's talking about someone else right? It has to be someone else.

"Annnnnd she's awake" A guy whom is definitely Justin announces. He's quite younger than he sounds. "I thought i lost yoou there for a minute. Would've made ma job easier."

"What?" I hope this isn't about the liver thing i overheard.

"Don't play cute with me girl. I knew you were eavesdropping on my call." Justin says in more of whispers.

It is. It's my liver they were talking about. There's no way i'm going to let them shorten my already short life

"Look" i begin. "If it's about the liver, can you just wait for three more months? Then you can do whatever you want with me." This had better work.

"You think i'm stupid right? I know you'll be dead by that time. When i said i'm in this town for you, i meant it. So there's no detail of your life that i don't know about." He replies with a smirk.

This is so not happening. There's no way i'm dying now. Why is my life so full of troubles? Why can't my worries be as simple as whether or not to wear pink? First, my mom dies, then, i have cancer, and now this? NO WAY. I have to win this time.

"Hello,"Justin waves at me bringing me back from my thoughts. "Earth to Lilly. Look, i know i'm very charming, but don't let me get into your head so much okay?" He adds with a smirk

"Oh please i'd rather be with the devil than to ever consider the king of asshole town as anythng close to handsome." I feel so proud of myself cuz I'm so bad at these things.

"Nice comeback." He says in a low and husky tone. "But you know i'm right."

"What do you want from me? My liver? You know what, take it. I really don't care anymore. "

Honestly, if this is how my life is supposed to end up, then fine. If it's meant to be this way, then there's nothing I can do to change it.

Justin just stares at me like he can see some aliens dancing over my head.

"What? Isn't that what you want?"

"No." He simple states staring into space like he was thinking of an answer for a billion dollar question.

"Really? So could you please explain to me why you kidnapped me from my house, tied me up here, and the phonecall about an interested buyer for my liver?"

Justin fixes his gaze on me. "Yeah there's someone who is interested in buying your liver, but that doesn't mean I'm interested in selling it. You'll find out the main reason why you're here soon enough. "

Now I'm just really confused.
Who is Justin?
What does he want with me if he doesn't want my liver?
Who is the buyer?
Can I even trust this guy?
