Lissa’s Pov:
Ariana and I were still in tears.
We’ve been here in this hell hole for the past two days.
I kept wondering what wrong we have done to anyone that we have to be kidnapped.
I really feel sorry for my poor little girl Ariana.
She have gone throu-gha lot as a little girl.
I was still lost in thought when the door throw open and a young lady walked in with two plates of rice.
The food could ba-rely be enough for a baby.
She kept the food on the bed we were lying.
“Eat that up” she said cruely
“This unhygienic meal? Disgusting!” Ariana screamed
“You little arrogant je-rk! You should be grateful that you were even given something to eat” She said and raised her hand to slap Ariana.
I quickly held her hand.
“Please don’t hurt her” I begged as the lady scoffed and rolled her eyes.
“Nanny are we really gonna eat this fu-cking faeces? Don’t they have chicken salad or maybe crispy chicken sandwich or even beef sauce and rice” Ariana cried
“Ariana! Baby we are not in the mansion!” I said
“Nanny anything but this… I can even eat anything prepared by the maids” Ariana cried
The lady who has been standing and starring at Ariana burst into laughter.
“You expect a queen’s treatment when you are a slave?” the lady clapped her hands in a gossip manner as she eyed Ariana wickedly and turned to leave.
To my greatest surprise… Ariana called her back.
“Miss! Please help us” Ariana cried
The lady turned around…. She was in tears.
But why is she crying?
“Ma’am why are you crying?” I asked as she wiped her tears quickly.
“Kyla! Call me Kyla” She said as she quickly left the room and locked the door.
We embraced each other again in tears.
Mr Rodney’s Pov:
I angrily hit my hand on the table with annoyance.
“Your best is not good enough! What do you mean you are trying your best?” I shouted angrily at the officers.
“please calm down Mr Rodney! We are doing some investigations and we will definitely find your daughter and her maid” The Sergent said and I yelled.
“That’s what you’ve been telling me for the past two days…. Officer my little daughter is just 9 years old” I said angrily
“Mr Rodney we are doing everything we can Sir” He said
“You are so annoying… My daughter and her nanny are very important to me” I said as I quickly walked out of the station.
I headed straight to the garage and hopped into my car.
I pulled over in front of a bar and entered.
“Sir! What’s your order?” One of the waitresses asked as I settled down in the bar .
“Three bottles of champagne!” I said
Shortly she came back with my order and I started drinking.
**
I kept drinking and drinking until I became very drunk.
I looked at my wrist watch.
“10:57pm? I don’t care… What am I going home for? My daughter is nowhere to found and the love of my life Lissa is missing too” I belched loudly.
Some minutes later, my phone rang aloud.
It was Sharon calling.
I quickly rejected the call and switched my phone off.
I continued drinking.
Kyla’s Pov:
I don’t know to do….. I suddenly now have a soft sp-ot for the little girl.
I picked up my handkerchief and mopped my face.
“She reminds me so much of my late daughter Nelia…i want to save her” I cried
“I couldn’t save my Nelia! But I just want to make that up by saving Ariana… She’s innocent but I know this might risk my life but I don’t care” I said
Nelia my only child was killed by some hoodlums who were after my politician husband.
The hoodlums killed my husband and my daughter Nelia… They died in my arms so right now am seeking for revenge.
I quickly wiped my tears and walked out of the restroom.
The unknown’s Pov:
The time bomb ? was planted in the house where Ariana and Lissa were locked.
Their hands were both chained so that they won’t escape.
I sat on my large bed watching them with my laptop cos there is a CCTV cameras in the room.
Tick-Tock….Tick_Tock….the bomb kept ticking and I became so happy.
“Oh my goodness Ariana! That’s a time bomb over there and our hands have been chained to a big gallon of petrol” Lissa cried and I laughed hysterically.
“1….2….3…..4….5….boom! The ? bomb exploded ? ? ?
And I laughed so hard.
Hahahahaa! ??…it is finished!” I said laughing so loud….

Mr Rodney’s Pov:
Someone tapped me….
I sluggishly opened my eyes….
I was still at the bar where I went to drink….
“Sir! Please leave now…its time to close the bar… It’s almost 3:am” the waitress said as I belched loudly.
“No! I don’t wanna go home yet… I need more drinks” I coughed
“Sir please leave…” She repeated as the security came over.
“Mr you have to go now” the guard said calmly.
“I don’t want to go! I can’t you get it?” I yelled angrily
Just then, my cell phone rang aloud.
It was my friend Albert calling…. I was too drunk to pick it up.
The waitress picked the call up.
“Hello Mr Albert” She said on seeing the name I saved the contact with.
I kept screaming and causing a scene as the waitress went outside to answer the call.
**
Some minutes later ? ?
Albert stormed into the bar.
He talked with the security before helping me out of the bar.
“What the hell is wrong with you man?” He asked angrily.
I couldn’t reply cos I was already snoring.
We drove off…
Lissa’s Pov:
I laid Ariana on the old spring bed and turned around.
“Thank you so much Kyla! I appreciate” I smiled
“It’s nothing Lissa but you can only stay here for today… You and Ariana have to leave this place first thing tomorrow morning cos it’s not safe for you guys” Kyla said
“I don’t know what would have been our fate if not for you” I said in tears
“If anything had happened to Ariana, I don’t think my conscience can take it” Kyla said
“But why did you save us?” I asked as she burst into tears.
“Two years ago, I lost my only daughter Nelia… I was happily married to my husband who was a wealthy politician and we had a little adorable daughter Nelia… My husband’s rival killed both my husband and my daughter Nelia right in front of me and I couldn’t save Nelia and I have been living a life of regret until I saw Ariana… She looks so much like Nelia and Nelia died two days before her 9th birthday… I also learnt Ariana is 9” Kyla cried bitterly.
“Am sorry about that Kyla! I shouldn’t have asked cos I just reminded you of…” I said as I wiped my tears.
“That’s nothing Lissa! All I want you to do is to leave Manila as soon as possible cos with the little I know, the boss hates you and Ariana so much and it’s better if the boss thinks you are dead” Kyla said
“But whose the boss? What wrong did Ariana and I do to the boss?” I asked
“I have no idea! But make sure you leave this place before tomorrow morning” Kyla said as she rushed out of the room.
I heaved a sigh of relief as I sat on the chair heavily.
?Are you still confused on how Ariana and Lissa survived the ? bomb explosion ? ?
FLASHBACK ?
Ariana and I saw the bomb ticking and tears rolled down our cheeks.
Our hands and legs were both chained to a gallon of petrol.
“Nanny! I think we are really going to die” Ariana cried
“No Ariana! Even if I die, I don’t want you to die” I wailed
We kept struggling to no avail.
When we already lost hope, the door was thrown open and Kyla walked in.
She was holding a key…
She quickly unlocked the chain.
“Follow me right now! We have to go throu-ghthe back door cos there are CCTV cameras in the front door and don’t worry I already disconnected the CCTV cameras in this room and the boss will not notice” She said as she ran out and we followed her.
Immediately we stepped out of the house the bomb exploded ? ?.
Ariana quickly collap-sed.
PRESENT?
I breathed heavily as I recalled all we went throu-gh.
I quickly brou-ght out the money Kyla gave me.
“I think this will be enough for Ariana and I to travel to Cebu City tonight” I said calmly.
“Nanny!” Ariana called as she gently opened her eyes.
“Baby! Thank goodness you are awake now… Come on get up! We have to leave right now” I said as she sat on the bed confused.
“Leave? Where to?” She asked
“Cebu City! You don’t want the wicked kidnappers to come back for us… Do you?” I asked as she shook her head.
“No nanny” She said
“Then move it! Put on your sandals let’s get going!” I said
“But nanny! Why don’t we go back to the mansion?” Ariana asked childishly
“No baby! The kidnappers might come back to take us if we do! We have to leave here” I said
“But we don’t have any house in Cebu City” Ariana said
“That’s where my mom and my little sister lives” I said calmly
“Nanny! Please don’t ever leave me alone OK!” Ariana cried
“Sure baby! I will never do that” I said as we hug-ged each other.
I quickly wore a hood so that I wouldn’t be recognized.
I also wore Ariana a hood and we headed straight to the park.
**
I paid for the tickets and were about to enter the bus.
Suddenly I heard someone’s voice.
“Hey! You…the lady with a child” the voice yelled at me and Ariana.
I became very scared.
I froze in shock….
