Chapter Five- Part 1

A few long hours in the car go by, the very silent car might I add, I don't know what to say to this guy who I think just killed somebody, if not seriously hurt him. We turn the corner onto a very posh looking street, we drive for a little while longer passing grand houses, he turns driving up the driveway of a very nice looking house, wait he lives here?!

"Home" he smiles turning the car off looking back at me "this is where our family's gonna be happiest" he smiles getting out the car coming to my door to open it helping me out, just as someone from across the fence starts talking. 

"Anthony, it's lovely seeing you again it's been a very long time" a woman says standing on her side of the fence, I unclip Amelia carrying her out the car as Anthony puts his hand on my back.

"Yes I know it's been while,  but I'm back with company, my wife Freya and our new daughter Amelia" he replies walking us from behind the car, the woman puts her hand over her mouth shocked in a way.

"Wow you have been busy haven't you? Oh she's adorable well done, how old is she?" She asks looking at me smiling, this was when I had to think back to what her mother said in the shop.

"Just turned 4 weeks" I smile looking up at the woman but quickly back to Amelia, who laid her head on my chest, Anthony puts his hand on my shoulder moving me slightly.

"How sweet and might I say you're looking amazing, I wish I looked like that a month after having my kids" she says looking down at me, wow I don't know if I should take that as compliment or not as I actually haven't had a baby.

"I know I keep telling her that, anyway we better get going, it's been lovely seeing you we'll have to catch up soon" Anthony says continuing to push me towards the house, the woman waves goodbye as we make it to the from door "welcome home" he smiles opening it revealing the very expensive looking house before us, he gestures for me to walk in first as he takes the bags in.

I'm not gonna lie this house did look very nice and it was huge, as you walk in a huge staircase led to the upstairs. To your left was an archway which led to a living room and down the hall looked like a huge kitchen. I take slow steps looking around as he closes the door behind us locking them too, I forgot for a second we're here against our will. He places the bags on the floor but tells me to wait as he walks into the sitting room, I stand there but my eyes quickly dart to the front door but unfortunately he took the keys with him, come on Freya he's been clever about this he isn't just gonna leave the keys in the door, knowing you'd take full advantage of it. He walks down the hall from the kitchen, didn't he go in the living room though how did he get there? I was probably too focused on the locked front door to notice him. 

"I had to make sure everything was perfect before I gave you a house tour, come through" he smiles placing his hand on my back guiding me into the first room, which resembled a living room.

It didn't feel very homey though, the walls were a dark red colour all the furniture also a dark wood, there was a huge fireplace but the wall above seemed empty but as I look closer I see the wall was a shade lighter, like a photo was hanging there for a while. He spots me looking quickly pulling me out of the sitting room and into the room next door which was the kitchen which was also quite big, he moves closer to me which made a huge feeling of discomfort take over my body. He seems to move in closer as the door begins to knock, he freezes looking outside where the door would be and finally moving away from me and out the room.

I really didn't like where that was going, wait if he thinks I'm his wife he's gonna want to do things like that, okay I can't let that happen at all! I need to find a way out of this place soon before anything like that happens.

Loud male voices snap me out my worried thoughts, I slowly move to the kitchen door from there I could see the front doorway. Anthony was there with two other dudes who didn't look very happy, Anthony looks over towards the doorway of the kitchen. I dodge his looks and  move so he couldn't see me watching him, I wanna know what they're talking about without them knowing I know.

"What the fuck man?! You just left us there to die!" One dude shouts which echoed through the house, wow these people are not happy, I peer back out to see Anthony rubbing his face annoyed.

"We thought you died man, we didn't hear from you for nearly two years not even ink tried to contact us and you know what he's like" the other says more calmly than the first dude, Anthony sighs looking between them both.

"I had to leave guys trust me I wouldn't if it wasn't the only option, I knew how good you guys were so you'd get out no problem and would be fine without me for awhile" Anthony starts looking at the guys in front, the first angry guy shakes his head still annoyed.

I mean I don't know what's going on but if I was left for dead by someone who I trusted I'd be pretty annoyed too, but I also don't live the life they probably do.

"Ink and I skipped town for a while to sort some stuff out, we should have called you but we just didn't get the chance" he finishes, the calm one places his hand on the angry ones shoulder giving him a look, which finally makes the angry one relax and nod.

I move so I was further into the kitchen where through the second door of the kitchen I saw what I thought was the back door, wait could that be unlocked? I look back at the guys who were now in deep conversation than back at the door. Freedom! I quickly but quietly walk over to the door turning the door nob which opened, I really thought he was smarter than that, I look behind me to make sure no one was there before walking out the door and into the huge back garden. I'm coming to realise everything in this house is huge, I figure to get out I'd have to go around the house to a back gate. I take the first few steps but Anthony's voice causes me to freeze instantly.

"Freya, what are you doing out here?" He asks a hint of worry in his voice, I sigh only if I noticed the door earlier and didn't earwig their conversation, we would have been clear of this place by now.
