Yes Master - Chapter 3

Well things could not get any worse. I think i might have spoken too soon. After i had recovered from my mini panic attack, I decided that instead of fussing over how little money i have, I might as well clean up the house.

It took almost forever and by the time i was done i still had to do my homework. Without bothering much about dinner, i just grabbed a sandwich and some orange juice and headed to it.

Curse the person who invented homework and school. I probably should’ve payed attention in chemistry today because all of these formulas just looked like gibberish to me, so I did what any sane person would do. I texted my friend and threatened her to send me the answers to our homework.

Being the lovely,loyal friend she is, she gladly obliged to my humble request but later on called me due to boredom.

“Hey Roxy. Remind me why you’re only starting to do your homework at one in the morning?”

“Well that’s because i was cleaning,” i replied simply.

“Until one in the morning?” she asked me in disbelief. I wasn’t really a fan of cleaning, but hey who is.

“Yup,” i said popping the p.

“You’re crazy you know that?”

“Well isn’t that why you love me?” i retorted back.

“Anyways bye. I’ll talk to you in the morning.”

“By Miriam. Oh-wait! Could you um-maybe, I don’t know? Lend me a couple of bucks,” i pleaded through the phone.

“Sure. How much?”

“2million dollars?” i asked hopefull

“..”

“Hahaha,” my so called best friend laughed through the phone.

“Wait are you actually serious? Sorry mi amigo but $20’s all i got. And why the sudden need for the huge amount of cash?” i heard her ask then yawn.

Well the creepy dude said i couldn’t tell the cops right? But this was my best friend so i figured i could make an exception.

“Ok, I’ll tell you at school tomorrow. And bring a packet of skittles.” i said in my most serious voice.

“Ma’am, yes, ma’am” she said before hanging up.

Why does life hate me. On my way to school i made sure to lock the doors, but then again if the kidnappers decided to break in again, I doubt locking the doors would stop them, oh well.

Today could just be the worst day of my life. I woke up late then got ready in under ten minutes rather than the usual twenty five.

I realised that there was no milk so I had to eat crunchy cereal. On my way to school its started raining. I was not prepared for that and my clothes were in no way rain worthy.

My so called ‘best friend’ didn’t show up for school because she caught a cold and I think I was coming down with something too and I still had not come up with the money.

Deciding to call it a day, I went home at break after calling in sick. You should’ve seen the way the school nurse looked at me before determining that i was really sick. Sure I’ve pulled a stunt where i was faking to be sick a couple of times but after I almost lost my nose because of sneezing too hard I guess that sealed the deal.

Now Im in bed with some soup thinking where the hell am i going to get the money when my phone starts ringing.

“Hello?” I said before letting out a huge achoo.

“Do you have the money?” said the rude guy who kidnapped my family.

“And hello to you too rude dude who kidnapped my family. And by the way how are they?” ok Roxy, I don’t think nows probably the best time to be sarcastic

“Are you drunk or intoxicated because i have your mom and little brother tied to a chair in front if me. And your mom doesn’t look too well at the moment. Just one bullet and thats all it takes to put her out of her misery. Would you like that?” i am pretty sure he had one of those sadistic smiles as he said that. Wait, hold the phone. He wants to shoot my mom???

“No i am not drunk just sick s-” i was saying before he rudely interrupted me

“Did I ask about your whole life story? No. ”

“As i was saying before you rudely interuppted me. I have most of the money but maybe we could work something out?”

“..” silence, God please let him be thinking over what I just said.

“No you bring the money as planned.” then the rude jerk hung up on me.

What to do, what to do? Ok Roxy of all the crazy things you have done this has got to be the worst.

I put on some comfy clothes seeing that it was still cold outside. I grabbed a duffel bag, put all the cash in it, tucked in a pocket knife into my pocket, then headed out. If you don’t die today Roxy then I don’t know what will kill you?
