His first love (Mine) Episode 22

The kidnap

Efua? POV

I woke up to a new day as I stretched. I was alone in the room, I took a glimpse at the wall clock ..
“f**k, I am late to school”. I exclaimed as I got out of bed..
“Why didn’t Troy wake me?”. I thought within.
I rushed to the bathroom to take my bath.

I was dressing up when Troy walked in holding a tray, he was already dressed.
“Breakfast”. He said dropping the tray on the table and walking over to me.
“Good morning”, he greeted and kissed me
“Morning babe”. I greeted also
He nodded as he watched me dress
“Why didn’t you wake me, you knew it is almost time for my class”.i queried
He caressed my cheek and said
“You were sleeping peacefully , how do you expect me to disturb you?”, and I guessed you were tired of all the love making we had last night . He said winking at me.
“Eat your breakfast love , I will be waiting downstairs.
“ okay sir”. I said rolling my eyes
I weaved my hair into ponytail, rushed my breakfast and joined him…….

When I got to school, class was already on..
“Good morning ma”, I greeted the philosophy lecturer as soon as I stepped into the class. I expected her to scold at me for late coming..
“ I am sorry I am late , I ……….:
“Don’t worry Efua , you can go to your seat..
I widened my eyes In surprise as I went to sit down. I knew it was the influence of Troy..
I smiled at Betty as I sat down……..

We walked in the library after class laughing and mimicking the philosophy lecturer..
“That woman is too strict, I said. I was even surprised she allowed me into the class “
“You should know the reason Efua, she dares not walk you out.
I must be really lucky then…

We sat down and picked a book, we were about to read when Philo walked towards us..
“Can I join you”.she asked
“No, go away”. Betty said
“I am deeply sorry, I have realised my mistakes . You know you guys are the only friends I have . She said obviously sad
“ you could have thought about that before you betrayed our friendship “. Betty said angrily

She felt really sad and was about to leave when I called her
“Philo”.
She turned to me
“You can come join us, I understand you are sorry. I have forgiven you but can’t trust you for now “. I said to her
“I am okay with that “. She beamed happily .
Betty was clearly not in support with it but she said
“Fine, if Efua wants it that way, then I will take it like that”. Come join us..
Philo sat down happily with us and we all read together….

Everything had been going on well, I was getting along with philo, Troy has been the best boyfriend.
I talked to him about his father, I begged him to settle with him, he was reluctant at first but soon agreed..
Tony was no where to be found, since he left, no one heard a thing about him…..

I was home alone ,Dad was not back from work while mom went for shopping..
I was bored and decided to go to Betty’s since Troy went to see his father..
I changed my dress and was soon on my way when a message popped in from an unknown number, l clicked on it and it reads:
“meet me at Petra gardens… love you, from Troy”..
I read it all over again
“Is he done with his dad?hope there was no problem?”…

I stepped out of the house, got into the car and drove off to Petra gardens.. I soon got to Petra gardens, it was quiet ….

I got down and went over to a swing and sat down on it, a woman walked over to me…
“Waiting for someone”. She asked .
“Yes, I answered smiling “
“Oh!” She said ,the garden is not opened for today and she walked away..
I guessed she was a janitor

I was wondering why Troy will ask me to come here when it is not opened today.. I brought out my phone to call him when a black van pulled in front of me and two men got down from it..
“Hello miss”. one of them said while the other grabbed me
I was alarmed and kicked him hard on his stomach , he grunted in pain and slapped me hard , I winced in pain..
“Please let me go”. I said in pain struggling to free my self when the other man covered my nose with a white handkerchief…..
The smell was unpleasant,I became weak , my vision became blurred and I soon blacked out……….

OMG! Who will save Efua?
I am I tears ?
