"Since your friend joined the party, I can as well make something. His parents must be willing to pay a huge sum of money" Jack said. Poor Rick, if only he wasn't with me all these wouldn't gave happened to him. I wonder what time it is and how long we've been gone. My ankle still hurts so bad. Thankfully Jack left the lights on and left me untied also.
Surprisingly. I went over to Rick who was still unconscious. What did they do to him? I shook him but he didn't bulge. I went to the bathroom and took a palm full of water and slashed it on his face. Still nothing. I dragged him by his leg to the bathroom, kept him in the bath tub, put the shower on and sprinkled it all over his face and then finally he woke up. "Rick!" I shouted. "Fanny?" Honestly, I don't know why he calls me that. He's the only one. "Rick are you okay?" I asked. "Yeah I'm fine. What are we doing here. Oh I'm not ready for this yet". "As if. Cut it out we've been kidnapped" I told him.
"Indeed. Fanny, I really need to go home, I've been out for too long" he said. "Go on try your luck". He stood up and went towards the door and opened it, locked. " Open up" he said. "Rick I'm serious, do I look like I'm joking?" I said. "Oh no that's your serious face. Why? How? When?" he said. "Its a long story but we have to get out, Now!" I told him. "Okay so this used to be my house. Its a two storey building, just pray we're not on the last floor" I told Rick. We both went to the balcony. Just great. We're on the last floor. "Wait, I have an idea. We can use the bedsheets or blankets, any material as a rope" Rick said.
"Rick you're a genius" I said excitedly. "I know" he said. I just rolled my eyes. We ran to the bedroom and took the blanket. We were about to take the bed sheet when we heard the door being unlocked. We quickly arranged the blankets and sat on the floor. It was probably one of the guards. He looked at Rick and then me. Then he said "Dinner time".
I asked what day it was. When he told me, it turned out we had been there for a day and half. My parents must be worried sick. He left and locked the door behind him. I was starving but who is stupid enough to eat food given to you when kidnapped. We went back to what we were doing. "That was close" Rick said. "Too close" I replied. We tied the bed sheet to the blanket and checked if it was long enough. It wasn't. We saw a chair cover and added it. It was perfect. We tied it to the door of the balcony and threw it down.
Fortunately, there was no window in the area where the homemade rope was. Well except for the office. We still have hope cause the table and chair was beside and not facing the window. Rick went first. When he got down, he called me. I came also. Jack was in the office but was focused on something so he didn't see us. We ran as fast as we could, which wasn't that fast cause Rick had to hold me because of my leg. He was almost carrying me. When I couldn't run anymore, he told me to get on his back. On a normal day I wouldn't have but if I don't now, we could get caught and it'll be my fault so I did.
He ran as fast as he could while I showed him the way. We took the back gate. We were almost out when someone shouted "Hey! Stop right there! Where do you think you're going!" We kept running. Well Rick kept running, he ran even faster than before. Then we heard gunshots. We hid behind a bush. I told Rick to go since it was me they wanted. "Never. We're leaving here together" Rick said. "And his do you think we'll do that. You hear the gunshots don't you" I told Rick. " I do and that's the reason we're leaving together". Rick said.
"Listen, if you stay, we can never get out of here but if you go you can get help. Rick that's the only way or we'll both die here. So go now and come back with help for me. Okay" I told Rick. "Okay, be safe" he replied. We hugged and I pushed him to go. Then I shouted "Hold your fire. We're coming out. We surrender okay". I came out and Rick ran through the other three bushes and jumped over the fence. They started shooting at him but he was on the other side already.
