Becky's pov…I was taken aback by Tyler's sudden question, why is he asking me that out of the blue and what makes him also think that I am hiding something from him. “Secret? Please make me understand,” I requested and he sighed heavily.He didn't say a word to me and just moved to his stack of clothes where he changed into one of pajamas. Now I am convinced that something must have gone wrong. I noticed this all started after Tyler got a message from his phone this morning. I didn't know what the message was all about but it obviously ruined his mood.Tyler took his seat beside me on the bed and took my hands, he then stared directly into my eyes. “Is there something you are wanting to tell me but you feel like I shouldn't know about it so I won't get hurt?” Tyler suddenly asked and I furrowed my brows.Why is he getting me confused? I don't think there's any other thing I am hiding from him at all, I've told him everything he needs to know. “You have been weird since morning an

Author's pov…Ann yawned tiredly as she shut down her laptop, she stood up lazily and began packing some documents and a few things into her bag. She just closed from work and is about to leave for her house already, she already ordered for a ride that would take her back. She would have gotten a car long ago but she doesn't know how to drive and she isn't ready to learn it yet. Even Becky does not support her getting a personal car for now because she knows her crazy friend, if not, she would have gotten a car for her already. Ann is the type that even if she finally learns how to drive and gets a car of her own, she would be visiting the station everyday for hitting someone else's car or even running over someone. “Finally, I can't wait to get back home and go under the shower because that's what I badly need right now.” Ann muttered as she slowly walked out of her work place after informing her boss of her departure and signing out. She stepped out and sighted the ride she or

Author's pov…“What did you just say?” Tyler asked with a shocked expression and Ann swallowed so hard.“Believe me, I wasn't also in support of this too but she didn't just listen to me.” “Fuck!!!” Tyler yelled out feeling pained that Becky lied to him.“Do you know what this means? Do you have any idea what Ephraim might have done to her? You know how he wanted her back so badly, you're also fully aware that he tried to kidnap her last time. Just imagine what would happen when he finds her in his house without any stress, he would never allow her to leave.Only God knows what that bastard might have done to her, why does she have to lie to me? What was she even thinking or does she think going to insult and warn him would make him change his mind? Is she this daft? What the heck is her problem?” Tyler yelled out and kicked the wall angrily. Ann stepped back a little bit before she got hit mistakenly. “Why didn't you inform me when she told you she was heading to Ephraim's place

Becky's pov…I didn't have the appetite to eat anything at all, I was filled with so much anger and fear at the same time. All that filled my head was how I was going to escape from Ephraim, neither Ann nor Tyler knows about this place so it might be difficult for them to find me. I know Ephraim is desperate but never to this extent, I need to find a way to escape before tomorrow night. “I guess you must have been searching for this,” Ephraim suddenly said as he dangled my phone in front of my face. I tried to grab it from him but he pocketed the phone immediately.“And what even made you think I would give it to you? Starting a new life means you're cutting every single ties with anyone you know. I would get you a new phone so just forget about everyone. Your dad is dead and you don't have any other family that can keep you back here. You can make new friends in this new place we would be going to. I'm not revealing the country yet, it's going to be a surprise.” Ephraim said and

Author's pov… “So what are the cops saying?” Ann asked Tyler. They were back home already and Tyler insisted that Ann follow him to their home since it's very late already. “They have started the search already, Ephraim would be declared wanted tomorrow morning and his pictures would be pasted everywhere, including on the Internet. All airports are on shut down and all flights have been out to hold till Becky is found. Ephraim would never be able to escape this and once he is caught, I would make sure he spends the rest of his miserable life in jail.” Tyler swore angrily. That's the kind of power he wields in the country.“I'm just worried, I really hope everything is fine with Becky.” Ann muttered sadly and Tyler sighed.“Don't worry, she will be fine and she will be found. You should go to bed already, this is 2am already, you've gone through enough stress already. Just go have your rest and prepare for today,”“How can I even sleep knowing fully well that Becky isn't alright?”
