6. Zara

 The girl's eyes flickered open, and an unfamiliar room pressed in around her. Panic surged through her chest as she bolted upright in the bed, her breath quick and shallow. The room was not dark but not so bright either, it was dawn. A cool breeze coming from the window.

"Where am I?" she whispered.

Then she realized she's wearing a white shirt! And it's not her. She panicked again. At that moment, the room's door opened slowly with a jarring clatter sound. A man, with extremely great physique, came inside and stood in front of her. As usual, Finn did not say anything but stared at her eyes like a statue, the girl was very confused. She clearly remembers him, as the guy at the restaurant. Her mind raced like a wave, why is he here? Or most importantly, where is she? 

After a few seconds of staring contest, they both spoke at the same time,

"Where's my money?"

"Did you change my clothes?"

She became more confused. What money he was talking about? Although she remembers vaguely.

"What money?" she asked. 

Finn stared at her very intently, "Are you slow in your head?" He said with the same tone, "1 Million credits for saving you."

"Oh… I see," she said as if everything is very clear now, "you really saved me?"

Finn, without replying, kept on staring at her and indeed she felt awkward. Finally breaking the silent, she said, "Oh, eh… I don't have money." The moment she said that, Finn grabbed her white shirt and pulled her toward him.

She was so close to him that, they could practically feel each other's breath!

Finn said coldly, "Where's my money?" Before she could say anything, Finn with a very deep voice, "and if you say that you don't have the money, that will be your last words."

She gulped some saliva and said, moving her head a little, while also trembling, "I have the money, but not here." Finn gestured from his eyes to continue, so she did, "I have a friend, who has my money. I will give that to you." 

"Where?" 

"I already told you! My friend has the money." After hearing the answer, Finn seriously thought about her mental health for a few seconds. Did her brain get damaged? 

"Are you dumb?" Finn said, looking at her eyes, which were brown and deep, "Where is your friend?" 

"I don't know!" she said while trembling. 

Finn moved his hand from her collar to her throat very smoothly but firmly, and then slowly increased the intensity. The girl felt the pressure increasing, in panic she said, "but I know where to meet her and when."

"When?" Finn said mechanically.

"Every Sunday, at 7 pm near the old bridge." she replied weakly.

It was odd, Finn thought, meeting someone like this and not knowing their address! But Finn knew better than any others about oddity, for he lives a different life than most. But that does not matter right now.

Finn threw her into the bed, the white shirt she was wearing, was long, long enough to cover her thighs. But when he threw her, the blue panties, which she was wearing, were clearly visible to his blue eyes! She quickly covered her sweaty chest and thighs, and stared at him accusingly. Finn didn't flinch, instead, he said coldly, "you have two days, and if I don't get my money by then, this Sunday will be your last Sunday." 

While leaving the room, Finn stopped, "what is your name?" 

She replied, still covering herself with her hands, "Zara," after saying that she asked quickly, "did you change my clothes?"

"You don't need to know." by saying that, Finn slammed the door.

"Eh?" Zara was dumbfounded by that answer, she has never met someone who talks like him!
