Celina had just gotten out of her hotel,it was time to leave yet her heart aches badly.she felt like she was leaving the most important part of her life back here in Larissa(Greece).she had wonderful memories here both bad and good most expecially with her father.
He usually calls her"his sunshine"and recited a poem to her about it when he first gave her the name at 5.Then all was good between celina and her step-sisters, their hatred towards her started when they were teens,up till now she couldn't put a finger on why they hated her so much.
As she recalled these memories tears clung her eyes threaten to spill down her face, there was nothing she could do,she couldn't think of even trying to pull up a stunt towards her stepmom because only God knows what harm she would bring to her father if she disobey her.The funny aspect was that her stepmom has full authority for the time being,her savings account was the only thing preventing her from being broke,her step-mom has no access to it,if not she would have been stranded.
Celina always knew her step mom flawless public facade that entrapped her father and others unknowingly masked her deviousness which she now shows.The tears Celina tried to hold spilled down her face,her cheeks were red from crying,she was preety sure she would get a migraine sooner from too much crying.she was feeling helpless as she passed by to enter her designated cab waiting for her,it was booked by her favorite maid by name Manny,who was like a sister to her.she felt fresh tears streaming her face she would miss alot of people here.
Celina was glad that she was wearing a plush bunny ears pink hooded coat.
The hoodie covered half of her face so she felt relived people won't notice her emotions easily.she held a small luggage containg just few clothes,the rest would be way billed once she get to the Italy,to start a new life with her friends
As she moved towards the cab.....
She noticed a huge chunk of man in the driver seat,celina felt goosebumps all over her skin,her hairs stood on one end in her neck and anytime this happens it's a sign she was scared.
"Scared of what".she thought in her mind trying to reassure herself.it wasn't working.
she took a glance at the seat and at the man as coldness seep into her,the weather was cold so Celina reassured herself a little "yeah..that's why,no need to fret". she still found herself in that position,staring.
"Don't be scared little one"the big man at the driver seat said.Giving her a devilish smile.
Before Celina could process everything on her head,this voice it isn't familiar with the one she spoke to an hour ago...as she made move to dial the cab number,she spoke to some minutes ago...a shadow was at her back, before she could turn all she heard was a loud sound of car door,and then a sharp smell...,as she struggled for consciousness, car sounds faded in her ears and then total blackout.
__________
.... Celina woke up her eyes fluttering,she felt a sharp pain on her hands as she felt like she was being tied with ropes.coldness ran through her body "who are these men!?and what do they want from me!?"...she felt so scared so as not to make a sound so they won't notice she was awake...as all these questions came to her heart,she felt more helpless trying to withold tears from streaming down her face.
"who would do this to me!?what have I done to deserve this"....as tears clung her eyelids... another muscled man was at her side the car was noisy as they were laughing and discussing she noticed another man again sitting at the front seat...
There were three huge men if she acts so carelessly she would die in matter of seconds.celina thought In sadness.
she was like a damsel in distress, with no knight in shining armor.
Their faces signified ruthless ness and screamed deadly,how huge they were made her feel more scared.
But one thing was straight.
"if they wanted to kill me,I would be dead by now...but the car is moving"Celina thought as she was feeling more scared"what would they do to me"she felt anxious as fear seeped more in her heart.
She heard a loud voice as she felt his eyes on her body, feeling nauseous suddenly as he examined her,Celina tried to maintain one position,so they won't notice her awakening.
"let's have fun with her, she's freaking hot never have I seen such a curvaceous and very preety lady in my life"the voice uttered in awe.
"Boss orders! We have to maintain the order!;".the one driving said.
"Don't even start Akash"the one at the front seat said"at this point I don't believe in boss orders after all we were asked to torture her for a week and let her off with deep cuts..then after sometime she would be killed slowly...no one said we can't have our fun"
"Fun! like seriously"Akash asked as he drives a little bit fast.
"She's hottttttttttt...let's just sleep with this beauri she wouldn't know.look how hot she is"the guy at the back seat said.
Akash signed"to be true she's freaking hottt at least we can take one or two liberties with her"he finally agreed with the rest of them as they laughed mockingly...tears slid on Celina face unknown to them.she was done there's no way she could overpower the three of them expecially as huge as they are.celina prayed for strength deeply,she was scared to her bones but she wouldn't let them lay a finger on her even if she would die saving herself.
Akash mumbled alot of times,as the car became slow.
"Why are we going to stop.hit the brakes Akash,we aren't entirely free from safety".the man at the back seat said.
Akash mumbled" I can't hold it anymore I need to pee".
"Same here it's been hours since we drove,the streets are empty and no one visit a grave yard at night we can just pull over,do the needful and continue our journey"he reasoned with the rest as they noded.
As the car came to a halt,the car door opened as Akash ran out, the one at the front made move to go,
"keep an eye on her"He ordered sternly to the thug at the back, and left to ease himself.
Then Celina knew this was her chance it was now or never, with a thumbing hear and a mind full of determination,she first accessed the movements of the thugs.
As the one sitting at the front earlier ran to the bushes towards the grave yard....
Celina kicked the man at the back....she kicked his intimate part hardddddd as he screamed furiously,as he made move to quickly pin the doors that was opened.celina struggled to roll to the front,as he was about to catch her,she kicked his face and bit his earlobes and nose hard.As blood filled his face,Celina rolled out of the car, standing up immediately and running,her heart racing praying they won't catch her, either she stay or she escape.

Anytime Leonardo visited his grandpa graveyard,he always felt this deep agony seared in his heart.
Leonardo really loved him,his grandpa always stood by his side..it was a tradition to him that he at times visit him by the graveside since he died last year December.
It was just two weeks into the second month of the year.
Normally the family was supposed to visit him together but work held him back last week so he couldn't follow them, even as his schedule was tight this week,Leon promised himself that he would come this week.Due to late meetings today this was the time available.leonardo could visit his grave as he mourned him,he remembered when his grandpa stood by him when his mom died,he could remember his words clearly.
"My child"tapping his shoulders as at that time"you have to be strong.Alot of things would tamper ur spirit as u grow older,but u must overcome them with a willing heart, determination and wisdom.strong men don't cry"Leon remembered these words bitterly,tears clouding his eyes.
His grandpa had been his moral support right from his teens.
Leon's father "Mr Alexander de Caruso" lost himself to his darkness, keeping to himself and welding a mask of unhappiness never letting anyone too close to see how it affected him badly or too far after he lost his father(Leon's grandpa).
His father has tried all his best to form a bond between them for a very long time.
The word"bond"made rage boil in his heart, clenching his fists hard.
There was never a relationship between them...precisely!! it was guilt? Choking his father when he was of a tender age..!When he realized Leon was his true... and other circumstances included when his mom died..
well it wasn't important for now!
These words resurfacing again made his heart weep in grief.losing his grandpa was like a source of light pulled of above him leaving him in total darkness.yet he had to be strong,to keep his emotions checked,not letting anything break him on the outside even if he's hurting badly in the inside that's threatening to break his walls down.
Leon face hardned with unbearable pain,tears slid down his cheek,his hands shaking,as he pushed his palms to his chest, trying to control his emotions, while going down the memory lane on how his grandpa unexpectedly died.
making him full of rage, panting raggedly,his emotions resurfacing all over, removing his palms from his chest,fisting and releasing his palms hard, repeating his movements.
Leon heard some weird sounds, very much unusual because coming here before he hadn't heard noises the place was very quiet.
It was a reserved area bought by his family.
who could break into private grounds without scared of unforseen circumstances,. Upon his grandpa death that left him shattered his family secured a private ground solely for his grandpa.This county Greece had something special to his grandparents even though his grandpa had his origins from italy.
His grandpa often said he would love to be buried in Greece in a place filled with different kind of beautiful flowers and he would continue flowing by describing the landscape how enthralling and beautiful it would be like.The amazing view and the serenity around the place.
Recounting these memories brought tears to his eyes,Leon could remember his laughter after saying these words,the way his eyes shone bright thinking about the beauty of his description. His grandpa not knowing his death was near.
The horrified expression on his grandma's face, nagging she couldn't think of him being dead or his imagination of his graveyard site.
She continue by nagging at Leon, rolling her eyes at her precious grandson that his grandpa won't have negative illusions on his head if Leon had settled down for a family.. and.. Babies which his grandpa would have ample of time to be with.
Working his fingers on his hair to calm down his nerves as Leon struggled to breathe.
Almost everything in his life was intertwined with his grandpa.He was His friend!Role model
A mentor and His confidant!!
Having a reputation of being cold,brutal and heartless.It was only his grandpa who could see through him.
Leon made sure he made his grandpa illusions of his gravesite come into reality.
That was the one of the things that could make his grandpa's spirit more happier and at ease.
There was no demarcation in this private landscape.
Everything here was owned by his family and bought by him .So who had the guts to enter into here and how.
Or was there.
Searching around everywhere seems normal and peaceful.
It was just his imaginations.
He knew there was a cliff end.. that's just it
"Isn't it"Leon thought deeply trying to clear doubts from his mind but it proved fruitless.
He still felt a aching gap in his heart .
Did someone follow him from the back till when he opened the gate and entered.Even if dat's was true the person would have strike him since when he was lost in the thoughts of his beloved Grandpa.Even at that could the person easily overthrow him, thinking about that made him grin wickedly as he flexed his muscles.But nothing else happened since then,he didn't even smell anything fishy... until now.
The person truly had some guts!! He heard breathing,saw flahes of light and the clicks of equipments and then heart welching scream like someone was in panic.
He was for a moment stunned,The voice was sonorous piercing in his ear at the same time full of fear like in trouble.
He held his head, feeling unconcious like everything he was seeing almost became blurry with drops of sweat formed on his forehead,he had to put his hands on his jeep to support himself.
The only time he felt like this was when....
Sighing deeply to clear his head and straighten himself.
Leon thought, his heart starting to beat fast in a low tune.
"was it a lady?" what could she be doing in this kind of place and this kind of time, leon questioned himself quizzicaly.
What surprised him was hearing her scream did alot to his senses.why did it affect him so much,with his heart already thumping wild that something bad that must have happened,
He felt an unbridled urge to go help her.
Like he couldn't believe his eyes that someone might actually be in trouble!? expecially why here of all places.It seems so Impossible until he heared a piercing voice like female scream,which still tugs his heart making him forget how cold and aloof he has always being....why was he so interested in this voice!?what could be happening, leon was was very much curious now.
"what would someone be doing here by night"Leonardo thought deeply.
" It isn't possible," Leon thought in conclusion,
calming himself down as he thought of alot of scary things,as he made move towards his Grand Cherokee Three-row Jeep which was obviously the latest model.
His instinct was still bothering him that something Is wrong somewhere....
"it's nothing" Leon reassured himself finally as he opened the door.....He was know to be a heartless monster, never paying too much attention to anyone, never caring too much to anyone.
He knew too well the cost of the last time he let his guard down,the pain still clung to him even now. From then on, His key code...
"keep your emotions in check, or they'll be preyed upon by haters...whether they come smiling as friends or lurking as foes.
He wouldn't care about the voice.he shouldn't';
It wasn't his concern in any way!
"yes he would just do that!..With that feeling of conclusion,he opened the door settling in the driver seat.
Leon could still hear sounds,moans in pressure, cries and whelps.
leon sighed annoyingly,he had to block this voice,the sounds from his head.
He was imagining everything due to what he has experienced these few months following his grandpa's death, sometimes he hears his grandpa voice even when his cold body is in the grave.
With his heart is racing,his mind playing over and over again the piercing voice he heared.
Leon could feel his hand shaking,his fingers unable to start the car sufficiently.
Leon sighed deeply,with a heavy heart he started the car,his heart had a will of its own not ready to follow his body,there was nothing like allowing his heart to lead him on again.
Maybe if he gave his heart that opportunity again,he might never recover from it.
