LAST HEART

XLVIII

' Babe? Babe?'

Caleb called out to a limp Amor who only responded by groaning. Trina and Robert were no where to be found. He had passed out after the punch to his face. He looked around trying to see if he could find anything to use as a weapon when he finally managed  to remove the ropes.

' I swear I'll get you out of here babe. Please hold on for me. Think of our children Amor.'

Amor groaned back just as Robert returned from upstairs with Trina following behind him. He walked over to Caleb and grabbed him by his chin, forcing him to look up at him.

' We found your safe. I just need the password.'

' Will you both leave if I give it to you?'

He spoke through his teeth and the pain.

' We will leave and never comeback.

Trina walked up to them and pulled Robert by his shoulder. She had her arms under her breasts with attitude and anger on her face

' We're not leaving till I get what I came for. We agreed you get Amor and I get Caleb.'

' Woman. I do not care what you do but I will leave when I get my money.'

' Robert! you promised if I helped you you would help me get him.'

' Trina I did that. There he is tied up to a chair. You could have your way with him.'

Caleb had his head down as he sat in pain thinking of what he was going to do next. Thinking of his barely conscious wife infront of him. He just wanted this night to end. He remembered how Amor had warned him about Robert but he dismissed it as bitterness.

' The code Caleb or Amor gets it.'

He was startled from his thoughts by Rob who had his gun pointed at Amor's thigh. If it was earlier when they first got here he would have taunted him with the belief that he loved Amor but now that he was seated in view of his work, he knew he never loved her. He was just possessive and greedy.

' It's her birthday.'

As soon as he said that he ran upstairs without hesitation. This was his time, he needed to act fast because Robert would be back any minute now. He decided to do the one thing he knew would get him out. With his own right eye beginning to swell up he turned.

' Trina come over here.'

In a second she was standing infront of him.

' I know Robert has no plan of letting us leave this house. So can I please get one last kiss from my one true love.'

Trina smiled and pecked his bruised lip.

' Trina that's not a kiss sit on my lap. I need to feel you. Even though I'm in pain. I want to have a little happy ending.'

Trina quickly untied his right hand and sat on his lap. Amor was out of it and he was glad she could not see what was happening. He hoped she knew that she was his only true love and he was doing this for her. His mouth hurt as Trina made put with him but he had to bare it. While she was occupied with him. He pulled out his cellphone from her pocket and luckily she had not turned it off.
