Chapter 2: Her Nightmare

She knows that there is no escape, rather than dragging her impending doom, she would sell herself to the devil just to buy time for her child to escape. She did not know what went wrong and how did the devil found out their route, after all, this was a highly covert travel. Her husband arranged everything so that he could hide both of them from this devil but, still he found out. She was scared for her 1-month old child because she was still recuperating from giving birth. She can't either fight nor escape. Just a little bit of movement hurts her caesarian wound and now it even starts to bleed due to all the car movements when they tried escape. But now, they are cornered.

Her heart plopped when the man spoke. She thought only his men came after them, she never thought that he was here too. Her hope was now all gone because that man will never involve himself if the plan is not 100% fail proof.

After some deliberation with her maid and driver, she walked out of the car despite their contradiction to her plan. But how could a mother not protect her child? She is willing to sacrifice herself just to save her child.

She gave her daughter a one last kiss and hug. No matter how much bravery she shows to her aides she could not help but cry when cradling her child. "Mama will save you my precious daughter and if somehow I am miraculously saved from him, I will come back to be your Mama again. We will fill the gap in time and do the things mother and daughter do. We will go shopping, dress-up and eat whatever food you like. It's fine if you get fat, as long as you have a kind heart, everything else doesn't matter. I love you." she whispered while choking in her tears.

Her maid and driver could not also stop their eyes from tearing up. It is heart-breaking to see the people they served in this desperate situation. Their madam never treated them as just "one-their-people" but as a member of her family. So, for them, they will protect the child until their soul separates from their body. For their madam, for her child and for their relationship built in time. They will fulfill her last wishes.

She gave her child to her maid, wiped her tears, closed her eyes and inhaled deeply. Once she exhaled and opened them again, her determination is fully displayed in her deep hazel eyes. She opened the car door and went out.
