Heart beating she did as she was told, she felt the passenger door slam shut, making her jump, and she placed a protective hand on her bump. She felt him slip in beside her, the door slammed and the car started up.
Fear was running through her veins, she was scared as to what he wanted from her, was he going to kill her, rape her, what ? As if reading her mind he spoke. His voice was deep and husky and had a slight Texas accent,
she thought she had better memorise his voice if she was, by some miracle, released safe and unharmed.
"I'm not going to hurt you, or your baby, I just need to get someplace."
She nodded and chanced a look at him, she wasn't expecting the punch that landed on her face.
"I said don't look at me" he hissed at her
Hot tears fell down her stinging face.
"I...I'm sorry, please drop me somewhere, you can have the car."
Silence...then his hand was on her bump, rubbing in circles, she tensed.
"You know, my woman just had a baby, wasn't mine. The whore slept around, so I had to do it."
"Do...do what?"
"I shot her, and the kid too, she had it coming."
She shivered, was this how it would end for her? Kidnapped? Murdered? Would she ever see her husband again, or her sisters.
" So...What do i call you?" He asked.
Again she tensed, should she tell him her real name? No, she would lie.
"A...Abbey, m...my name is Abbey"
"Really?"
"Yes"
"You sure?"
"Yes"
"You're lying"
"N...no i'm not"
He punched her again, it was so unexpected that her head slammed into the car door window, her head began throbbing, and her stomach started doing somersaults, she craddled her head, and the tears fell thick and fast.
She felt the car stop, this was it, he was going to kill her, instead he grabbed her by her blouse and pushed her up to the car door, his face close to hers, his voice menacing.
"I really hate liars, you know. You know that...Prue?"
"I'm sorry"
"Sorry...Sorry, ( He sighed deeply) you know what, get out, oh and don't go to the pigs, i have your purse."
He reached round her, and she felt the car door open, he pushed her out, she landed hard on her stomach and the worst pain shot through her, the car sped off, and she was left alone, Finally she opened her eyes,
she was laying on the ground, a bridge loomed high above her, and there was trashcans burning fires all around her, three or four homeless people dotted around the place, and thier eyes were fixed on her. She attempted to stand,
but fell back down, her legs were so weak, they couldn't hold her up, she looked around her for a phone, not seeing one she began to panic. Looking again at the homeless people, she spotted two of them in deep conversation,
until one of them rushed away, and his chat partner began walking towards her, she was scared, and tried shuffling backwards, he stopped and raised his hands in mock surrender.
"I'm not going to hurt you, or your baby miss"
She froze, that was the second time she had heard that tonight, and look were it got her, she backed up more, her back hitting the wall of the bridge, she looked around panic rising,
did the man from the car leave her here so this person could finish her off? Where they in on it together? He moved closer to her, his hands still raised, She screwed her eyes shut, if he was going to end her, she prayed he would
do it quickly, she pictured her husband, and her sisters finding out. Pictured her mother meeting her on the other side, this was her death.
Suddenly she heard sirens in the distance, she opened her eyes and looked at the homeless guy, he was looking in the direction of them too, then he looked back at her.
"My friend called an ambulance miss, you'll be ok now."
She stared at him, he had helped her and she had thought the worst, she managed a weak smile and said thank you with her eyes, then she saw the flashing lights screaming towards her, she was saved.
She watched as the paramedics jumped out of the ambulance and ran towards her, watched as they ushered the homeless man away and that's when her world went dark.
