>* Life's battles don't end... They only cease at death. *****---- Angelina ----I thought I had had enough of life's issues after I lost my parents to the fire...And also had to have a change of identity...In the process...I lost everything I have had and owned to my Aunt.I became homeless.. It's really funny how I, who was once a rich man's daughter, had to survive on scraps for weeks...I lived on the streets for months!Until... I got adopted.I thought it was over.I won't have to face much issue, as I have finally gotten a second chance at life.How wrong I was.I was wrong... So wrong. And it sucked...I encountered a near rape experience but was saved by Mia and Clover.I became friends with them.And soon... I began to believe in the existence of a deity who loved and cared so much about me.But one thing I always wondered was.Since he claimed to love and care for me so much, then why?Why didn't he prevent those bad things from affecting me?Where was he when
>* Hang in there... It's gonna be alright. *****---- Mia ----All my life, I can say that I am used to people comparing their life and situation to mine as they believe I'm like... The epitome of perfection.But am I really just as they claim?Am I really that epitome of perfection they claim I am? One thing is certain and that's the fact that I am human just like everyone else... Though it seems like I am more privileged than the others.The truth is, being more privileged comes with a lot of responsibilities.Just like the saying, " To whom much is given... More is expected. " goes.So yeah... Have got a lot of responsibilities.So many that even I can't count.And one of them is to carry others along.You know... This is one thing that's easier said than done. As lots of them won't want to relate with me.They've got this sort of belief that I am super proud and arrogant... Though I might not be.But since this had been the picture of me, they've got engraved in their
>* God is gonna take care of you. *****The next time the girls woke up, they found themselves in another place. One thing they noticed was how few they were...Weren't they more than this on the first day of their captivity?Why then do they look so few now? " Where are we, Mia? " Sydney inquired looking around. Unlike their previous location, here was a bit cold and the hut they are in is a bit more cramped. Though a bit more modern than the previous." A new location. " " But why? " Another asked." Maybe ---- "" Shush... Mia interrupted them and they all grew silent, as they listened to a conversation. " Yes, Boss. The girl's have all been transferred to our secret base. " " I don't know, Boss... The previous location was secret enough... Perhaps we've got a spy amongst us. "" Um... I am glad we were alerted before the armies could strike. " " They've been diverted now... They are heading towards the west at present. "" Sure, Boss... You can be rest assured... Ou
> * You are not hidden,God sees your pain. * **** Hours later, the girl's got a shocker when they were allowed to head out of the hut. They were completely amazed by the view in front of them. It was just too beautiful. Looking around at the beautiful trees and shrubs that laid around... They were stunned.. Do Bandits hide out in places as beautiful as this? They all wondered. Still they couldn't deny that the place was truly beautiful, as well...the truth is right in front of them.. Whether they believe it or not is completely left to them. They were led ten at a time to a stream of water where they all took their bath. " The water is surprisingly warm, Mia! " Angelina commented as she dipped into the water. " Indeed... " " Gosh... I can't recall the last time I had a bath! " Sasha ranted... " It's been maybe three days... Or is it four? " " It's three days already. " " Oh wow. " " Am I the only one who feels the comfort of the water? It's more like the
>* It'll be fine. *****It felt like the girl's worst fear, came true as they were awoken by a loud shout the next morning. Perhaps their captors didn't intend to wake them all up. But still, the girl's were awoken by the cries of the fellows who were being taken away. Despite the anger and hurt they felt inside, the girl's couldn't do anything as they watched a score ( twenty ) of them being taken away... To a location unknown. The others who were left, didn't know whether to cry or laugh at their cruel fate.It was really so sad and depressing.First, there was no sign of them being rescued and second, they were decreasing by the day.Who knows when it'll be their turn too?" I was right when I said.... It seemed like calm before the storm. " " You were. "" I don't want calm at all, if all that would come after it will be a storm! I don't want this at all! "" I don't too! " Winter wailed. " Girls... I overheard a conversation yesterday while we were taking our bath
>* I'll rescue you. *****---- Mia ---You are not hiddenThere's never been a momentYou were forgottenYou are not hopelessThough you have been brokenYour innocence stolen.I woke up the next day as the lyrics of, " Rescue " by Lauren Daigle kept ringing in my head. It's been two weeks now since we've been kidnapped... And I must say, we aren't having a good time at all. A lot has happened over the past two weeks... I watched a lot of atrocities being committed much to my dismay. We are being reduced on a daily basis... From being a hundred and thirty girls... We've got barely fifty of us left now. I wonder what became the fate of the girl's that have been taken away... We heard they are being sold out for Prostitution and slavery to countries across the borders. The thought of that sucks... Really. It really hurts me to realize that the girls are slowly losing hope on a daily basis...Some are even accusing me of sorcery... As they claimed all of their friends have
>* Don't lose hope. *****---- Mia ----I hear you whisper underneath your breathI hear your SOS, your SOSI will send out an armyTo find you in the middle of the darkest nightIt's true, I will rescue you.As the lyrics continued playing in my mind. I thought on the girl's words and my responses.Indeed... They were right in a way.There's currently no sign of us being rescued.We've heard multiple times of girl's being kidnapped and ending up nowhere to be found.At first, we were all worried about them, but as time went on.... Everyone moved on with their lives and forgot about them.And the security system?Only a dumb person would place trust on them... As they certainly can't be trusted... Not at the very least!How can they be trusted when some of them are informants of the bandits?And it's even rumored that minorities of them work hand in hand with the bandits to plot this? Escaping ourselves is actually no option at all...I can still recall how those girls who so
>* There's always light at the end of a tunnel. *****----- Author's note. -----That day, The girls were very glad, when breakfast was served earlier. Though it wasn't anything special.Still, they appreciated it.They were almost used to being fed like animals but well... Half bread is better than none." You know, guys... I have been pondering on something funny since I woke up. " Elizabeth spoke up after breakfast. " Which is? " " I had this thought on my mind that goes this. You know a lot of girl's get their first boy friend in highschool right? "" Yep. "" And a lot of people believe that Highschool romance is very fun and so and so. "" Yeah. "" So what if like some of us too in the same way have boyfriends who claim to love us and get married to us in future and so and so... But well, now that we are nowhere in sight... Do you think they would be willing to wait for us? Or would they move on? "" You asked a very funny yet interesting question, Elizabeth. " Debor
