CHAPTER SIX
I remember the moment I first saw day light the sun was low in the sky it must have been no later than four in the afternoon. The smell of fresh woodland flowers filled the air once more. As I step out onto stone driveway leading into the woodland. I hold Sofia tight in my arm as tears stream down my face
“We’re free Sofia, were finally free"
I look down to Sofia's bruised bloody face. Her eyes puffy from the tears. The nightmare was finally over as I walked down the stone paved driveway I breathe a sigh of release they couldn't hurt us anymore. As I head further into the woodland in search for any form of life I'm once again greeted by a hard hit around the head knocking me unconscious. As I come round I scream in fear to see Rick stood above me. Blood pouring down his face. I thought I had managed to escape the nightmare. I search frantically to see if I could find Sofia but no joy.
"Where is Sofia you bastard where is she?"
Rick just look directly at me
"She’s my daughter no one escapes from me not you and defiantly not her"
"You sick bastard you sick twisted bast"
Before I even managed to get my words out I felt another hard slap across my face.
"I fucking own you remember you stupid bitch your mine"
I slowly begin to stand to my feet while holding the side of my face
"You won’t get away with this ill make sure of it. I killed my father I’ll kill you next"
Anger flowed through my body as I stood there shaking with pure adrenaline.
I turn to see Sofia stood hiding behind a tree in the distance I had to save her from this life she was so used to. No one should ever have to go through this never mind a child.
"Sofia come here now"
Rick turned to face Sofia who was stood sobbing. It was then I took my chance I ran directly towards Rick pushing him to the ground myself falling in the process.
"You’re not going anywhere" Rick screamed at me.
I notice a large rock on the ground in front of me I take it in my hand and strike Rick over the head not stopping until blood leaked out onto the floor.
"Fuck you. You bastard fuck you"
I scream out in anger as tears flow down my face.
After what seemed a few minutes I drop the rock onto the floor and lay there sobbing uncontrollably.
I close my eyes for a brief moment before remembering Sofia was still stood hiding behind the tree in the distance the sound of her screams filled the air.
I finally console myself and struggle to get to my feet before walking over to Sofia and wrapping my arms around her.
"Shah it's ok he cannot hurt you anymore"
I take a hold of Sofia’s hand and head deeper into the woodland before coming across a road Standing there freezing in my blood stained clothes I wait. Wait for someone to find us.
