The photo above is of Chloe. Just imagine her in a tiara
****
Chloe's pov"You have to fit the corset."
"Your dad said it's a must for you too put on the tiara."
"Miss, you also have to try the necklaces your dad got."
The maids are right now on my neck. My dad wants us to attend a party his colleague is hosting. Everyone is already dressed including Zoe. But guess what I have been doing..
Sleeping!
Id rather sleep than be anywhere right now. I'm not really the party type of girl going around wearing Ball dresses with tight fitting corsets. I'd rather spend my weekends riding my motorbike all around the town.
The door opens and just when I think the maids are leaving, I hear my mom's booming voice.
"Get up silly girl, do you think we have all the time in the world. We all are waiting for you and you are here having your beauty sleep."
I feel the covers of my duvet being pulled over me and I can't help but groan. "Listen young lady, you have to wake up and put on your dress. We don't have all the time in the world. You know how much this means to your dad." I can't help but roll my eyes. Is she seriously using dad to blackmail me right now?
"Don't you roll your silly eyes at me, I'm still your mother." She drags me to the shower before I hear her order the maids. I take my time in the shower by having a bubbly bath. This is the only time of the day when I get a piece of mind so I might as well utilize it. After my shower is done, the maids help me in putting on my dress. They also manage to do my makeup after my several protests. I hate makeups, they usually make me look like a clown.
After everything is done, including the putting on of the tiara which I was totally against. I mean I'm seventeen. I'm not a kid to be putting on such things.
I walk down the stairs carefully so as not to trip on my dress. My dad, mom and Zoe are impatiently waiting for me. My mom is setting Zoe's tiara and with the look on her face, I'm not the only one who's not happy with it.
After earning a scowl from my mother, she walks towards her car with dad while I walk to mine and Zoe's. On such occasions, none of us is allowed to drive. Once in the car, I take my phone and call up Dee my best friend. The call directs me straight to voicemail. Looks like she's already at the party. She never misses these events.
Zoe and I are not close, scratch that, we don't even talk that much. Guess we are experiencing what they call sibling rivalry. She can really be a pain in the neck, and right now, I'm not really in the mood for her crap.
As soon as we arrive, we walk in as the "perfect family" everyone thinks we are. The Mc does not miss spotting us and goes through announcing our entrance.
"Let us give a round of applause to the Waters." My dad waves around and my mom gives out a fake smile. She's really experienced in that. Zoe holds her dress and curtsy while I just remain standing. My mom sends me a glare so I copy what Zoe did. 'You are doing this for dad.' I kept reminding myself.
We sit at a table preserved for us and almost immediately I grab myself a glass of wine from a passing waiter. I gulp the content immediately before putting the glass down.
The party goes on and on with speeches from different dignitaries,my dad included. Seems tonight was his special day as he was being promoted. Sometime later the music plays and I walk out of the room. Dee is not here and I'm wondering where she could have gone considering the fact that she never misses such occasions.
I'm about to open the door when a series of gunshots erupt in air. On impulse, everyone goes under their tables and I also don't waste time so I take cover. I can't deny, my heart is beating like crazy. From the corner that I've curled up, I see about four men with guns spring up from different tables across the room. They have no masks so we can clearly see their faces.
I'm surprised when one springs up next to me. That's not even what surprises me. The thing that shocks me is the fact that he shoots up with me in his hands.
He points the gun to my throat which is quite a shocker as I'm used to it being pointed on people's foreheads. Anyway, this does not ease the tension that I'm feeling anyways. I gulp nervously and I look around in aim of spotting my family. I spot Zoe but she quickly looks away from me. Well that's not new. I look at mom and she can't even look me straight in the face.
When I finally spot dad, I sigh because I know he'll rescue me, he always does. When I was young, whenever I fell off a tree or trip on my own dress because of my own silliness, he would always make sure I'm back on my feet, dressed my wounds and made sure I learnt from my mistakes.
Have you ever felt your world stop,your breathing hitche and your heart stop simply because you are disappointed?
That's how I felt when my dad looked away from me.
One of the men rushed to the podium and grabbed some documents away from the Ceo of my dad's company. He studied it for sometime before waving it to the others who gave him a thumbs up."You already have what you want, why don't you just let me go!" He pressed the gun further on my throat and I couldn't help but gulp audibly.
"Not so fast my dear." He looked around the room before shutting at the ceiling. "We have the girl. If at any point we find out that the document is legit, we will let her go. But if, it's false, you will have an option of either sending us the real one or we kill her. Thanks for doing business with us... Mr Waters." He shoots once more at some random glass before dragging me out the door.The cold breeze hits me and I shudder. He walks me to a car and just when I think he will let me have shotgun, he throws me to the boot of his car. I try protesting but it's of no use. This guy towers over me so I'm defenseless before him. I hear the engine roars and the next thing I know is that we are on a road. The air around me suffocates me after sometime and I can't help it when I pass out.
There goes my first chapter. Tell me what you think guys.
