Trapped

Part 1

All Black. I couldn't see anything. What the fuck! where am I!!! What's happening! My heart was throbbing inside of me when I opened my eyes and I could not see anything. I was blindfolded, My hands felt captured between some sort of metal. I could feel it. My legs were tied. What the fuck is happening !!? Am I dead ? Or am I gonna die now !!? I started to shift in my position trying to free myself from the ties. I started to scream, but I could hardly hear myself because my mouth was taped. Please help me. Anyone...

I started to sob when I heard a soft rather cold and a feminine straight forwarded voice - "You should stop doing that. It is just gonna hurt you." I turned towards the voice and screamed but I don't think she could understand anything.

She walked towards me I could feel her foot steps, she pulled the blind fold from my eyes and pulled the tape from my mouth, I tried to see but it took some time to adjust to the light. After a while I saw around myself. It was a one room house, filled with books, paints, a couch, small TV - A clean rather minimalist room and a dog barking at me continuously - A pug.

"Dusky. Sit." I heard her saying, Dog did as she was told. I looked at her. I know her. That's when I remembered.

"It's You!" I shouted at her angrily.

"Where the fuck am I !! Release me immediately !! You have no fucking idea who I am. The cops will be here any minute. Let me go !!!" I shouted at my highest voice, My eyes beaming with anger. It made no difference to her. She was as calm as the sea staring at me, while sitting in a comfy sofa front of me. She was wearing Black pajamas and a white T-shirt. Her hair was pulled in a bun and had big glasses on her. She looked nothing like this when I met her few days before.

"Hey, Boss." I answered the phone call.

"Hey Man, I know it's your holiday today and we just finished a very hectic schedule. But This can be a huge thing.." Boss spoke calmly.

"Okay, Shoot." I spoke switching on the TV to just relax on my couch.

"So, Have you heard about the Bazar Magazine ?" Boss questioned.

"Of course, All the big shots in the industry be it entertainment, business or any field, Top 10 guys get published on it. It's big magazine." I spoke absent minded.

"Exactly. So I received a call from them, they wanna schedule an interview with you tomorrow. So you wanna go for it ?" Boss asked

My eyes raised, I was in shock. Me in Bazar Magazine !? Holy Shit. Of course I wanna be in it. "Are you kidding me boss!? I wanna be in it so badly!! I never knew they would call for me.. Say yes Boss! Say Yes! Msg me all the details and I will prepare myself. Would you be there for me tomorrow ? I would be nervous dude.." I said

"Mew, You don't have to be nervous. You are good at this. You are no longer just a mediocre series actor. You are now the highest paid actor in Thailand. You are  a super star now. Just be yourself. You have earned this Mew. Sadly, I won't be able to there tomorrow even though I wanna be there with you. You remember we have a meeting with the producer for the next movie scheduled in next month? There are some date issues. Plus your Fan meeting is coming up in Korea. I need to arrange some stuff. So I'm flying tomorrow to Philippines to talk to the movie team. Sorry Mew." Boss said apologetically.

"No worries Boss. I think I can handle myself, Just text me the details tomorrow. So I can be prepared." I said

"Gotcha Sir! Okay I gotta go now. I will see you later okay." Boss signed off.

I breathed heavily. I am gonna be in bazar magazine!! I was so excited. I couldn't sleep the whole night.

This was my dream. To be a great actor. I wish Pa was there to see me like this. He would be proud. My eyes got teary. I thought of calling mom, I picked up the phone but saw it was already 11 PM. She might be sleeping, I didn't want to disturb her.
