One of the men wipe his eyes as it leaks from tears, he couldn't help it, his daughter was kidnapped and no one knows where she's gone.
If she's still alive or not.
It's been 3 days, and along with that three days, authorities have gone to find and investigate. Her parents could only wait and pray for their daughter,meanwhile, Sebastian, hired detectives and his parents also help him by alerting the social media and news outlets. Flyers has been sent and is continuously being hand out to people who might see her, they also added a reward if anyone can give them clues.

She's been starved and then was offered food. He, Leonard, seems like his toying with her life. He doesn't want her to die easily and won't let her live that free and without pain.

He said with a sickening smile on his face. He still has his suit so I guessed he just gotten out of work.
I didn't say anything as I look away. He stand up and force me to look at his way. His hands on my jaw was hurting and I couldn't help but whimper a bit.
People wouldn't think of his as a lunatic. He's more like a handsome gentleman in the street. His features are good but you know what they say: "a good face with a black heart".
You wouldn't even think of him in anything bad. He looks gentle and upright but when you see his eyes. His crazed eyes and his crazy obsession towards his sister and his friend, if you know about the things he's done, you wouldn't even want to look at him.
I should've known it was going to happen. " History really repeat itself " but it's too late now for regrets. No more crying. I need to fight.
I look him in the eye and force myself not to flinch towards him. He laughs and I couldn't help but feel goosebumps on my skin.

Cooing at me as I glared at him with all I've got, suddenly a heavy force land on my cheek as it swells down from the impact.
Slap!
It hurts and immediately tears started forming in my eyes. I forgot. I shouldn't have done that.
I shouldn't have glared at him.
That's the thing that he hates. Glaring at some one and especially him will cause you a swelling face.
he hiss at me and I couldn't help but shiver in his eyes. I know the reason he doesn't like women glaring at him.
He had a bad childhood which he intends to hide from his sister. He is once a kind and naive child until they did that to him. The memories started to flood again.
" Such a poor child "
" He didn't deserve that "
" Such an awful people "
" That whore house should be abolished "
I was just 12 when I hear the news. It was about the Errigale's siblings. It was all over the town. Aristocrats and even the common people knew about it.
The siblings were kidnapped when they were going home from school. They were selled into a "whore house" as what the people are talking about. They were six when they got kidnapped and 6 years passed till they were rescued.
I didn't know about what happened but my mother told me to always be with her or even my brothers to make sure I won't be in the same predicament as they. I just nodded although I didn't know what happened to then from these years.
I knew.
Raped.
That's what happened to them.
Or at least to only one sibling.
It was when we were introduced to the etiquette to be a good wife and how to perform the best when your with your husband. It was pure torture and my ears have been piping hot after we finish the lesson.
And as soon as I knew about the matters between men and women the news about the two siblings emerged in my mind. I was a kid back then and I didn't know anything about it, but now.
Now that I know about it, I couldn't help but pity them. They're just kids and how many people have forced themselves on them. How can those people do that to a child.
He was merely a child.
A news also said that he was admitted to a hospital. He was said to be acting violently at women ( no wonder about that ) and glaring with him is a taboo. He didn't like it and almost fight a nurse who glared at him. Only his sister and a few elderly can make him calm down.
It must be a terrifying thing to experience what he had experience. Women that are forcing and glaring at him must have caused a trauma on him.
Still, he was brave enough to continue life for years after their inhumane act on him.
Looking towards him, I felt pity, he has his dark childhood looking on his life but it doesn't excuse the fact that he killed people. That he tortured women who glared at him.
I can't help but worry about my safety. I just hope Sebastian will find me sooner, before he eruots in a mad state and pour all his frustrations on me.
