Chapter 13

6 months later

Garry and I have gotten on a lot. He still threatens me saying if I leave then he will kill me in front of my mum so I just stayed quiet.

We are currently watching tipping point. We've gotten into it a lot actually. Oh and I actually have a bed to sleep on instead of the floor. Even though I still get beat and raped Garry was a pretty chill guy. Apart from the fact that he killed my father.

Beans was a big boy now so he laid across my lap to keep me warm. He still saw Garry as a threat but would ease down when I gave him the eyes.

Anyways it was about half 4 maybe and we hear a knock at the door. Garry trusted me to not do anything so he got up and opened it. When he did there was loads of shouting. "GET DOWN NOW! YOU'RE UNDER ARREST!"

What? I didn't know how to react. I just froze. One police man took him to the car while the over one came over to me.

Police man: Is it Kaylee?

Me: Yes, have you come to rescue me? Can I go home?

Police man: Yes we have. You just need to come to the station with us and then you can go home.

I say ok and get in the other police car with Beans. I watch the trees go by as this is the first time I've been out in months.

We get to the police station and the whole of the police force look at me in shock. It hasn't been that long has it?

Police man: Right, you need to tell us the story about what happened with the man.

I begin and start to tell him the whole of the story. I remembered every minute of it as it replayed in my memory.

I finish and he stops writing it all down. He tells me I have to go for a doctor check up but I can go home now. I get up and walk out of the office to see my mum. I run up to her and we both hug each other and not let go. We both started to cry as we missed each other so much. Beans just sat back and tried to squeeze his way into the hug.

Mum: My beautiful baby girl.

She moves my hair out my face to reveal the bruises.

Me: Mum I'm fine I promise. Can we just go home and talk about it over a cup of tea.

She hugs me again and we go outside to see cameras and loads of people surrounding us.

"Kaylee you're back! How does it feel like to escape the torture?"

"What happened for you to get captured?"

And loads of other questions were being thrown around. Beans got a bit angry and started barking but I calmed him down and grabbed one of the microphones out of some woman's hand and say to the camera,

Me: Make them your best friend! Don't disobey them because they will do worse to you. Take it easy and for the people out there watching this, the sick bastards watching this, let them go.

I drop the mic and head to my mums car. She drives away and she goes to a McDonald's.

Mum: Want some food?

Me: Would love some food.

We laugh and she parks the car. We get inside and order our food still getting looks all around us. We find a little booth and sit down.

Mum: I thought you might want this.

She hands me my phone. All of my messages we unopened. I look through them all to see ones from my mum.

Mum: Honey where are you? You're going to be late for school.

Mum: Kaylee this isn't funny, get home now.

Mum: Maybe the dog wasn't a good idea.

Mum: I'm calling the police!

Mum: There going to find you Kaylee so stop messing around and come home.

I keep reading the ones from my mum and they were very upsetting that they made me leak a little tear.

Mum: They found your phone at the park. That's why it's a bit cracked, you must have dropped it out your pocket.

I carry on reading them and then I come across ones from Simon.

Simon: Why ain't you at school today?

Simon: You can't keep ignoring me.

I keep reading through them until I get half way down.

Simon: They said you've been kidnapped. I hope you're safe. I'll never forget you. Ily ❤️

I keep reading down the sad "I miss you" messages. I see one from 2 months later saying,

Simon: They say it's a high chance that you're dead. I don't believe that though. I know you are strong and will fight through it. We've finished school and I've moved out. I still think about you everyday. I hope you're safe ❤️

The rest of the messages all stopped about 4 months after my abduction.

Mum: Simon would always come and visit me every Thursday. We'd sit down and have a cup of tea and talk about you. He stopping coming around 2 months ago. I heard he's gotten really big on social media.

Me: Should I message him?

Mum: If you want to honey.

I finish eating a few chips and send Simon a message.

Me: Hiya Simon, I'm finally free. Beans kept me safe so don't worry. I would love to meet up with you for a drink or something. That's if you're down and not busy xx.

I finish eating and we head home. I get Beans out the car and into the house. He doesn't remember it at all so he's a bit nosey.

I walk into the living room to see loads of pictures of me around the room. On the mantle piece was two pictures of me when I was a child and a picture of Mum and Dav. I pick it up and smile. I'm so happy Dav was there for mum when I wasn't.

I feel my phone vibrate and I check it to see a message from Simon.

Simon: Holy fucking shit! Is that really you?

Me: Yes silly. Check the news.

Simon: It's been 6 months!

Me: Ik, I missed you.

Simon: I missed you too Kaylee. Do you want to come around one day and see the boys again?

Me: You're still in contact with them?

Simon: It's only been 6 months lol.

Me: I'd love to come. I'll see you Thursday?

Simon: Sure! I'll keep it a secret from the boys! I'll see you soon. I've missed you so much! Ily!

Me: Ily2 Simon.

Im glad we're still on the same page.
