Still Searching.
Chapter Two: saying goodbye
The person I opened my eyes too is not at all what I was expecting.
A woman, light blonde hair and pale skin steered the car.
I couldn’t see her face.
I moved my head a bit, trying to get a glimpse.
“You’ll get one phone call.” She uttered.
I gulped. I didn’t realise she'd seen me.
“F-For what?” I asked.
“To say goodbye.”
She turned around. Her eyes were covered in black make up, and her lips bright with red lipstick.
I nodded once and laid back down; afraid the woman would hurt me.

After driving a little more, we pulled into a small, abandoned petrol garage.
The woman got out, opened my door and motioned me towards a pay phone.
I looked around. All I could see was mountains and plains. I had no idea where we were.
“Try anything and I’ll kill you on the spot.” She said as she slipped a quarter into the pay phone.
I shakily typed in Clara’s number.
After a few rings, her voice answered. It made my cry instantly.
“Hello?” She sniffled.
“Clara. It’s me. It’s Destiny.” I said, sobbing.
“Oh my god. What’s happened?” Clara weeped.
I looked at the pale lady. She mouthed: No names. No details.
And then, she slid her finger across her neck.
I understood.
Or you’re dead.
I nodded, then turned back to face the dial pad.
“I-I’ve been kidnapped. If I say by whom they’ll kill me. They know who I am. And they have me now and I’m going to die.”
I started to cry hysterically.
Clara was bawling her eyes out on the other end.
“Destiny. Oh, Destiny I’m so sorry. Baby girl, I’m so sorry.”
“Clara I want to come home.”
“Destiny everyone wants you home too.” She stopped, than called out through sobs.
“Guys its Destiny.”
I heard everyone run over to the phone and Clara put it on loudspeaker.
“Destiny.” I heard Niall’s voice crackle through the phone.
He was crying and I pinched my eyes closed thinking of my brother.
“Niall I don’t wanna die.” I sobbed.
“It’s my entire fault. I should have protected you. I’m so sorry baby sis. I’m gonna find you. GOD DAMMIT I’m gonna find you!” He weeped.
Clara’s voice came back on, and I could tell it was off loudspeaker.
“Everyone wants you home. Everyone’s here. Addison, Alexis, Carmen and Amberley are crying. Jake is crying. Louis is crying. Niall is beside himself. Liam and Zayn are bawling.”
I thought of my friends and family and my body fell weak.
“And Harry…”
I stopped to listen, sniffling my nose as it ran constantly, my eyes pouring tears non-stop.
“He won’t talk. He’s just sitting there. Emotionless. He won’t eat. He’s only said one thing.”
She said, as I heard her tears slip out of her eyes.
“W-what?” I cried.
“He says… ‘I shouldn’t have yelled at her. I should have held her close. Now she’ll never know. Never know I love her.’”
I bursted into tears. The pale lady came over and yanked the phone off me.
“Times up.” She smiled.
I wailed. I moaned. I screamed and grasped for the phone.
“No! NO NO NO NO!” I was hysterical.
I could hear Clara through the receiver.
“Destiny! Destiny!”
But the pay phone slammed down and the pale lady dragged me back to the car.
“Boston will be back soon. He’ll come get you then.” She said as she shoved me into the boot of the car. I wailed as she tied me up.
Next thing I knww, the boot slammed and I heard the footsteps walk away.
They didn't get into the car though.
They left me.
