James arrived home to an empty house. It was awfully quite. Something weird he thought but shook it off. He believed that Precious went to a friends house and stayed. Well he didn't care where she was at as long as she was out of his way.
It has been two days and Precious wasn't back yet. He went to her room and see if she was in there. 'Precious, Precious where are you?', he asked. But no answer. He was tired of looking around the house for her, maybe she just didn't want to be bothered. So, he went to the kitchen to get a shot of Vodka. On the refrigerator underneath a magnet was a note. It read:
" your daughter iz bein heild hostage untel you give us da 40,000. If you go to the police or if u don't give us the money by Tuezday she wil die and you wil too."
James was filled with anger. He Yelled, "this Illiterate ass nigga gone threaten me, nigga cant even spell. He better go back to school before he step to me." After he through his fit he sat down on the couch and thought of a plan to get his baby girl back. He still loved her deeply. It's just the fact that she reminds him so much of Miranda. Precious being a carmel skin tone with hazel eyes and black curly hair, she look like her mother twin. But he had to get the money in four days because two days went by and he was already on his third day. Or else..

Precious Finally awoke from being knocked out. She looked around her surrounding and the first thing she could notice was how nice the room was. It had a 64' plasma tv and pictures on the wall that looked liked it was worth more then five hundred. Also, it had a this nice strong fluffy bed that she was currently laying in. This was nothing like home she thought. But to her right, on a pillow beside her there was a note. It read:
" I know you're missing home, but this is your home until further notice. And until we get what we need. Now if you cooperate, i will feed you and let you bathe but, if you do one thing and mess, up you will be gone in a heartbeat.
Fear took over her as she place the note back on the pillow. She knew that she had to listen until she knew how to get out of this situation, only if she could get out alive. Precious heard a knock on the door, she jumped to her surprise. An unmasked men entered the door. He was at least 6'1'. Nice smooth carmel skin like her but he had brown eyes. He was wearing a white beater with gray sweats. You could tell he worked out because you could see the muscles through his shirt. He was an attractive man but in Precious eyes he was the enemy.
Precious was scared and nervous, she didn't know what he was going to do with her. "What if he was going to try and rape me? No, no, no what if he came in here to kill me?" was the questions going through her head. The unmasked man just looked at her. Which was making her more nervous. To break the silence she spoke, "Can you please tell me why I am here? Are you going to kill me? Can i go home?" Precious panicked. He just laughed at her. " Calm down, ma, i ain't gone hurt you just came to check up on you. You probably read the note did you. Well I didn't write it.. just placed it down. The names Keston. Towels and soap is in the closet. So, you can shower, and hurry up cuz' you stink." Then he left the room, leaving her with a shock and confused look on her face. So, the sexy Keston was an asshole after all, Precious thought.
