Episode 9

All the guests there took heed of Drake's behavior towards me, Sara falls a Frown and left, luckily a man walks in and whiskered his attention away, he leaves after giving me a hard stare.

Still watching as he leaves further with the strange man, a hand holds and dragged me out of the party, confirming Sara's fictitious look.

"What?"

I said.

She brings out a key from her back pocket and said, "take this key, it's a spare from Drake's original keys and when you have got the chance, run and never return".

( Unfrozen and left me speechless).

( Inaudible conversation)

The party went on smoothly, and now I was being escorted to my prison. ( My room).

I took a step in and saw Sara locking it, following Drake's command, my ears quietly listened until her feet faded away, and the second it did, I brought out the spare key and hastily packed up my bag, "I'll have to leave". I said to myself and watched the clock run a few headcounts.

My eyes refused to fall asleep, it was important to leave and no matter how much my absence would benefit Sara, I've got to go before Drake kills me.

So, slowly I unlocked the door and tiptoed my way out with my bags.

Successful, I sneaked past Drake's bedroom and Swifty make it to the living room, it was left a few steps away to the front door, I continued tiptoeing until the light turned on, decerning Drake staring at me.

"Going somewhere?" He says to me.

I froze heeding to his angry tone, "what I'm I going to do?" That's my head talking, and the next moment, a hand weaves me back and slapped me.

"Drake!! You slapped me". In a shocked expression I asked, he kept a daft ear to my statement, everyone at the mansion all ran out at the sound of my face receiving a painful hit.

"Why do you love hurting me?". Drake says.

It's either he ( Drake) was a lunatic or maybe not in his right frame of mind, between the two of us, who's hurting who?.

"Seriously!! Are you kidding me, I'm hurting you, may I remind you that, I've been the one locked up like a criminal, and now I'm the one hurting you?". ( I frowned at his statement).

"So, you're telling me that, I've been the one hurting you?". ( Drake rephrased his words, waiting for my response).

"Yes!!! You're the one hurting me, and do you wanna know something, I hate you, so much". ( The anger I felt within, made me alter does words to him)

My statement seems to have gotten him furious, he takes a hold of my wrist and dragged me out the front door.

He clenched tightly and refused to let go, while we both walked out in the pouring rain.

Drake says, "you hate me right!! Alyssa, and now I hope that you continue hating me because you will stand under this pouring rain until the break of dawn".

( He pushed me afar and veers leaving me behind)

The rain washed my clothes, Drake walks further, all I could hear was the doors denying me entrance.

I took this as an opportunity to leave but found that the gates were locked shut, "shit" I screamed out loud, looming for a suitable place to keep safe from the pouring rain.

Without my knowledge, Drake watched from his room and saw how miserable I was, trying to survive.

Luckily, I took a snap at a little house out and ran further to it pushing the door open.
