"Daddy I am scared" little Rose said as the zoo staff tried to bring her out of the gorillas cage
"Its gonna be alright Lynn. Just look at me and say your prayers in your head and everything will be alright." he said as he tried to look less worried.
"No daddy, it may come near me daddy, It may eat me." she said with tension and fear in her voice.
"Gorillas dont eat roses Lynn, it wont eat you ok?" he said as he smiled at her and is looked at the staff that are trying to bring her out of the cage.
"But dad, gorrilas eat humans and I am human." she said replied and he didnt say anything.
"Daddy! Daddy!" Gorillas eat humans right? she asked screaming again as she felt a stick reach out to her.
"Hey Rose, grab the stick and put it on your bag pack okay?" one of the zoo officials said reaching out a stick with a hook to her.
"okay," she obeyed the instruction and put it on her bag.
The staff tried to pull her out. Half way into pulling her, the hook tore her bag and she fell down on the floor again heating a bowl of water that splashed on the furious gorilla waking it up by her scream.
The gorilla let out a growl and started moving towards her.
The tension in the area was thick as the staff called out to her to hold tight to the rope they sent in to her.
As she was carried to the other side of the rope, the gorilla could only come as near as taking her shoe out of her left leg.
She fell back to the arms of her father . He loved her so much. She cried so hard as he carried her back home. Her elder brother Tobi, carried her to her room and put her in bed after dinner.
"Tobi "she said as he was about to put off her room light.
"Yes, Rose?" he said with concern
"I dont like gorillas anymore, I now like lions." she said and glared at him for a response. There was none so she just said," Good night Tobi, tell Henry I said good night to." she said and used the duvet to cover her face.
"Good night Rose , remember to say your prayers, I love you and always will." He said as he closed the door.
That memory made tears flow unstoppably down her eyes. She took a hand kerchief and wiped her tears away.
She brought her laptop closer to her and started working.
Her assistant came in with a cup of coffee for her to drink. She didnt bother looking at him she just gulped down every drop of the hot coffee in fear and anger. She signed all the contracts and bills brought to her office. She was meant to attend a business meeting that night but she couldnt imagine leaving her parents all alone. Actually, she couldnt imagine them been killed or tortured by someone else but her.
Tag her cold hearted and wicked, she didnt care because they started the game and gave her a serious heads up, now that she understands the game properly, shes gonna play it till the last air she breaths and that a promise for her little angel.
The business meeting for that night, she sent Cole her dedicated staff to represent her, while she went home to rest.
Alejandro came into her room last thing that night and gave her a detailed story of how her parents day was and how he kept it a secret from other servents.
She thanked him and decided to do justice to her bed.
"Mummy!" Angel screamed of excitement as Chantelle washed her in the bathtub.
"Yes, my sweet little Angel?" she said as she carried her out to dry her body.
"Gina said her daddy bought her a bicycle yesterday. Can my daddy buy one for me too?" she innocently asked as she scrachted her eye.
"You want a bicycle, then I will get you one." she replied applying lotion and dressing her up in her pyjamas.
"But mummy, I want my daddy to buy it for me."
"Mummy will buy it for you, Okay? Now go to bed."
"But mummy, where is daddy. Everyone said they have a daddy but I dont. or do i?"she asked. The memory came alive again. The scar left in her heart reopened as she was never expecting her Angel to ask that question so soon.
"Daddy is an angel." she said trying to avoid eye contact with her five year old daughter.
"if daddy is an angel, then let angel meet angel" that statement only made her heart feel worse. She didnt even know her daddy. They never even talked on how to raise there little daughter, that is if he knew he had one. She quickly put those thoughts behind knowing none of this was how she planned her life when she was just entering college.
She gasped as she woke up in shock. She walked straight to her room frigde to take a bottle of water. On getting there, the frigde was empty. It got her pissed off because she always told Ferhan to refill her fridge everyday. She proceeded towards her door walking down to the kitchen.
Drinking a glass of water, Rose heard a slight sound from the basement. She took her glass and descended to the basement putting on every light on the wall to see properly.
"Serena, its ok, everything is fine. Just breath" she heard her dad say as she opened the door to the room in the basement where her parents were held hostage. She heard sounds of hard breathing coming from her mother as she stared at both of them.
Her mother was on the bed, her head lifted up with a pillow under her neck. Dad had a bottle of inhaler in his hand and he was leaning to mums direction.
"Is she about to die?" she said in a laughing manner. "Why dont you let her, afterall,one of the things that killed my little Angel was asthma." she cocked her eyebrow as she took a sip of water.
" Well, I just came down stairs to make sure you arent spoiling any of my expensive utensils. Even if I sell you, the money I gain wont be able to buy anything, because you both are worthless bitches."
She strolled forward to her dad,"It seems the church doesn't like you anymore, I haven't even received a call from them. You fucked up? ooh sorry Rose fucked up."
"Ro..Chantelle, your mother is in need of medical treatment, please she's your mother"
"Oooh! it is now you know she is my mother! Five years ago, you didn't know that right?"
"We don't have time for this type of discussion baby, just get us to the hospital"
"Hell no! if she's gonna die, then let her die, afterall I would have died to years ago..and she didn't give a fuck."
"You know she begged me to take you back, you know she loved you so much."
"Stop making her seem like a good person, she is a witch, a waste of sperm! I take my leave here, I don't want to wake up all stressed tomorrow. For mum, she can die, I don't give a fuck about her!"
