Anabelle

It's almost two weeks that I had Tara kidnapped. Though I haven't been to where she was because of the cops but I had cleared my name, thanks to my influential dad.

I decided to go pay her a visit at my dad's warehouse. I got there some hours later. I parked my car some distance away to avoid easy recognition, then I trekked to the warehouse.

I met one of Sharp Shooter guys, who was securing the entrance. He hailed me and I gave him some money.

"Where is your boss?" I asked

"He is inside with the prey," He replied

"Okay." I said smiling

I went inside and met Tara with Sharp Shooter. She looked so unkempt and pale.

"Mama," He hailed me

"Uhm... Thanks for the job well done," I said smiling

"You welcome," He said

"Excuse us for a bit," I said

"Okay, ring me when you need my help," He said

"Okay." I replied him

He left the room, leaving Tara and I alone. I glanced a disgusting look at her and saw she was surprised about the whole thing.

"Look who we have here, the almighty Omotara Banks," I said grinning

"Anabelle, why did you do this to me," She replied weakly

"Are you asking me that because I guess you already know the answer," I said angrily

"But the guy doesn't love you," She said which earned her a slap from me

"Just shut up. Keep quiet or I slap you again," I said angrily

"No matter the slap, it still doesn't change the fact that Eric will choose me over you anytime, anyday, because he loves me, Anabelle, he loves me," She said smiling weakly

"This girl really got some nerves."

"Oh wow, he really loves you right? Tell me Omotara, what do you know about love, just tell me," I said clapping my hands... "Why is it that you are interested in all the people I love?" I asked

"Anabelle, what you don't know is that, I am not trying to steal anyone from you." She said

Tara

"Anabelle, what you don't know is that, am not trying to steal anyone from you."

There was a thick silence between us after I said that. Before we got to this phase, I had spent almost two weeks in this dark dungeon.

Though they didn't starve me but I felt emotional pains. The pain of not allowed to see the outside world. I felt like a prisoner.

I had no one to talk to, no television, no phone and I was tied to a chair. When I saw Anabelle came into the place and chatted freely with the guy that kept me hostage, I was so surprised and shocked.
