Chapter 2 Trapped

As I drifted away in the land of slumber , i saw myself in a garden filled with beautiful flowers and lilies , ranging from different colours and size . Mother I shouted , then she smiled at me , sweet girl she said . Mother we're have u been I've missed you , I've always been with you , and I hugged her tears rolled my eyes , sweet girl why are u crying , mother please promise you wouldn't leave , she nodded and immediately I woke up .

Drenched in sweat and tears on my eyes , this same dream . I cried for a long time cause memories started playing on my head.

FLASHBACK

Mom what are u preparing , hey look who is here , my sweet girl , just go upstairs and change ur uniform and your food will be ready Okay mommy I said and I hurried to my room to change .

END OF FLASHBACK

I cried bitterly cause I really missed my mom and all the moments and memories we both created in this mansion . Things would have been fine , if my dad didn't bring my step mom and Amelia to this house .

That is why I have to stay strong for my mother and get back every single thing that belongs to her and pay back all the people that wronged us , especially my father and his dear wife and precious daughter Amelia .

I got a call from my boyfriend , asking if I was fyn and if I arrived home safely . I said yes because , I was surprise by the sudden care he is showing .

On a normal he claims to always be busy whenever I call , but he's sudden call this morning and yesterday is making me see another phase of him .

I took a fresh shower and I work downstairs for breakfast , then i overhead my step mom speaking to someone on the phone , but I care less about her affairs

As I was about to sit and have my peaceful breakfast as I thought , my step mom called me . Immediately I felt like punching her .

Hey Stella good morning, good morning to u too I replied .

Hope u slept well , I was shock for some seconds then I regained myself and knew immediately that she was up to something .

Yea I did sleep well , how may I help you , Oh dear Stella u don't have to be rude , I just want to tell you that you will be joining me for the mall today .

I retorted her , and whose consent did u seek , your father Stella and my husband . Then and there I heard to join your mom to the mall today .

i immediately knew something bad was about to happen, because my instincts never lie.

Stella , you would have to follow us , because I miss going out with my big sister .

you see Stella this would be a great idea , so you have no choice but to accept .

I turned towards amelia and she smirked , I sighed from exhaustion , and with a great speed I finished the food cause I was loosing appetite and the food was getting cold.after that I hurried to my room for a quick nap, cause am still stressed from yesterday's work.

Knock , knock , I heard a knock on my door but I was really not in the mood to wake up. I kept quiet thinking the person might leave but to my greatest dismay I heard Amelia's voice .

Stella it's time for us to go to the mall. Oh God I will be down in five minutes . I said to her .

Ten minutes later I wore my cloth and I met them downstairs at the living room .

Oh Stella you look really great in that dress , I smirked thank you mom . We will be leaving now . And I nod

We drove for like 20 minutes , we arrived at city mall , one of the biggest mall in A city .

Now let's go shopping Stella , my step mom said and I nod . Because I'm really surprised about her sudden attention towards me . Thinly of that I couldn't shake the negative feeling am having .

Amelia and mother POV

Mom are u sure it will work ? Yes baby I just called Mr brown his on his way here . I just pray it works , because I can't wait for Stella to be out of my way to get Carlton and he will be mine alone .

Same here Amelia we will collect everything that belongs to her . Let's get going before she finds us .

Back to Stella

I was wandering around the mall and picking wat I felt was necessary for me to get , then I felt pressed , looking for a way to relieve my self . Finally as if luck was on my side I saw my step mom and Amelia coming I rushed towards them .

Mom please do u know we're the rest room is am really pressed ?

Yea my step mom answered . Just go upstairs by your right , you will see a door that's the rest room. Thank you so much and I left .

Mom that description is Mr brown room not the rest room , yea I just want everything to happen very fast or don't you want Carlton any longer . Thank you mom your the best .

I walked into the room , it was nothing like a rest room , but I didn't care because at this moment all I want was to relieve myself .

When I was done, unknown to me they was a man in the room . As I was about to leave I heard a voice .

Stop there young lady , you're mine to play with today . .

I turned towards the voice and I saw a very old man with baggy tommy and immediately recognized him . Mr brown . Immediately remembered my step mom talking to someone this morning .

Flashback

Mr brown she will be ready this evening , don't go back on your promise.
