Please Tell Me This Is Just A Bad Dream
Little Shop
The light coming from the window woke me up the next morning. I stirred and then smiled when I remembered where was I. it was a warm, sunny day, and feeling the light breeze that was entering through the open window was nice. You want them back, remember? That voice said inside my head.
“Oh, for god’s sake…” I whispered and covered my eyes with the back of my hand. “What am I gonna do?” I said. My stomach began to growl, and I remembered I hadn’t eaten anything since god knows when. I stood up, put my jeans on and then left the room to see if there was somewhere I could eat, like an expending machine or something. I found one when I reached the little lobby, and began to dig into my jean’s pockets to see if there was at least one dollar there. Not in the front pockets, not in the back pockets. Such is my fucking luck.
I sighed and turned around to find the guy from last night looking at me.
“You need money?” he asked me.
“Uh, yeah…just five bucks.” I told him. He began to look in his pants, and took out something. It was money. I got closer and took it from his extended hand, smiling.
“You don’t know how much I appreciate this.” I told him.
“It’s okay. But you gotta pay me when you get the money.” He said.
“Sure. Thanks again.” I smiled and walked back to the machine, inserted the dollars, and picked what I wanted which consisted in a big bag of Doritos. I had two dollars left, and decided to get something to drink. I got a coke from the other machine. Talking about healthy meals… I then went upstairs again, and into my room where I ate my ‘breakfast’ happily.
“God, there’s nothing on TV right now.” I said to myself as I flipped through the channels of the small TV there. After not finding anything interesting to watch, I decided to go downstairs again, to see if there was something to do. Remember your little task, ginger. I stopped dead in my tracks when I remembered. Be subtle. Hmmm I guess there’s no problem if I leave my room’s door open, right? I thought when I decided to go downstairs, so I left it open. Oops!
When I got downstairs again, I asked the guy if there was something to do there.
“Not really, kid. But if you want, there’s a little shop right besides the motel. Maybe you can go look in there.” Perfect chance to show yourself. I smiled and thanked the guy, exciting the motel.
Outside I looked at the forest right in front of the place. Shivers went down my spine when I felt someone or something looking at me. I decided to ignore that feeling, and began to walk in the direction the guy told me, and found the little shop not far away from the motel. It was a little clothing shop that looked kind of cute, so I decided to go in a take a look. Not that I had any money to buy something anyway.
“Hey there, can I help you?” a girl asked me when she saw me enter the place.
“I’m just gonna take a look.” I said, smiling.
“Okay, just ask me if you need anything.” She smiled back. I began to look what was there, actually finding cute shirts and stuff. I took a shirt from its hanger.
“Um, do you have this one in small?” I asked the girl. She stood from her spot behind the counter and came closer looking at the t-shirt.
“Yeah, let me go get it for you.” She said, and disappeared through a little door. I kept looking around while she brought the t-shirt. Yeah, I know I have no money with me, but I still wanted to try it on. It was a nice shirt, and maybe when I get out of here and get my life back I’ll come back and buy it.
“Here it is.” The girl said handing me the shirt. “The dressing room is right there.”
“thanks.” I said, and went to try it on. I took a look at the mirror, and smiled. It looked nice on me. I sighed and took it off, and went back to my shirt.
“I’ll come later with the mon-” I stopped mid sentence when I came out of the dressing room just to get face to face with no other than motherfucker. My eyes widened and my heart skipped a beat. I looked around, and found the poor girl being held by Johnny with a hand over her mouth and a gun pointed at her head. She looked scared to death.
“Hello ginger.” I snapped my head in the other direction only to meet with a pair of aviators looking at me.
“S-shadows…” came out as a whisper. I couldn’t move, and I didn’t find my voice. This was what you wanted, wasn’t it? I wasn’t pretty sure about it now. What had I done?
“How did you…”
“How did we find you? It was actually pretty easy, doll.” Oh, so now he was calling me doll. Charming… “You exposed yourself in a very stupid way.” He told me. Yeah, well, that was the idea. Now, where’s vengeance?
“You gotta try harder, baby.” He said, and then motherfucker put me over his shoulder and began to walk towards the door.
“Wait!” he stopped and shadows looked at me. “I gotta return this, I haven’t paid for it.” I told him, and he raised an eyebrow.
“I guess it’s fine, the sexy girl right there won’t mind. Right, baby?” he said and looked at the girl who still had the gun pointed at her. She just shook her head since Johnny still had his hand over her mouth, and shadows looked back at me. “You see? You can take it. Now let’s go. Johnny!” he called and Johnny released the girl to follow us out of the shop.
“Brian, knock her out.” Matt ordered when we reached the truck. Brian’s idea was to just hit my head as hard as he could against the car’s door. And it worked because everything went black after that.

“Wake her up.” A voice said. I gasped deeply as freezing cold water hit my skin and my eyes snapped open. I then sat up straight and looked around me. I’m in the barn. I thought as I recognized the place. I saw Amanda, and the whole gang there, looking at me…including zacky. He looked fine; at least there were no bruises on his face.
“You finally woke up.” Shadows said making me snap out of my thought and look at him. He had his poker face on, so I didn’t know if he was mad or not. “I wanted to tell you I’m impressed. You got pretty far this time, but with no success. And I guess you didn’t learn the lesson last time you tried to escape.” He told me, and I instantly looked at zacky. Our eyes met for a second before he looked down. He also remembered what happened last time. “So I guess we’re gonna have to punish you harder this time.” He finally gave me an angry stare. I gulped, this wasn’t gonna be pretty…”but I have to think about how I’m gonna do it so for now, welcome back to paradise.” He smiled and then left with the rest of the guys behind him. I then looked at Amanda who had a concerned look on her face.
“Don’t look at me like that, it’s making me nervous!” I told her and she chuckled. “Sorry…um, are you okay?” she asked.
“Yeah, but not for long though.”
“Oh, for god’s sake…” I whispered and covered my eyes with the back of my hand. “What am I gonna do?” I said. My stomach began to growl, and I remembered I hadn’t eaten anything since god knows when.
