Chapter 6: Chapter 6

CRAIG'S POV.

Seeing how pale, sad, weak and so unkempt she looks, makes me want to do so much for her.

I just want to see her happy again. She used to be full of life, very happy, dresses to kill, and I have always admired her, but after what those whimps did back then at school, a whole lot changed, and instead of looking out for each day to get to school and see her, I wish that I could finish up on time, so that I could take over my inheritance, and show my grandpa, how well I could run the apple empire.

"Boss, we are here". I heard my personal Guard Stan say, and that was when I looked around to see that we are actually Infront of where used to be Samantha's house. The place she lived with her family.

What do we do now? Stan asked again. Not like I am supposed to be here with them, but the fact that it has to do with Samantha, I want to be here, and see that everything goes as planned.

"I am going to sit right here, I just need you to go into the house with Joel, If Edward is not in the house, then you can just get me the girl, but if he is there, all I need is a signal, so that I can come in". Stan nodded his head, went to the other car, to get Joel, but as soon as they got to the door, it opened, and a little girl of Eight is seen with an older woman, who is clearly her nanny. They look like they were going swimming, from their outfit.

This is our chance, I thought, and I guess my guards felt the same way too, they didn't bother introducing themselves to the females Infront of them, they just grabbed the both of them, and took them into the SUV behind. They drove off, with the ladies struggling to get out, but with that tinted glass, no one would see them struggle, and there was really no point struggling, for no force, can stop any Apple registered vehicle for checking.

I don't plan to kidnap the both of them for too long though, but I sure hope to return them back before they start looking for them.

All I just want, is to see my formal teacher happy again. Even if that is the only thing I will do for her, I want to do it.

When we got to the house, Joel and Stan carried their hostages, the same way they had carried them before, into the house, and the struggle continued till they were dropped gently on the floor.

"Who are you, and what do you want from us? I heard the most beautiful voice ever, that I had to look at the little girl to be sure she is the one that just spoke.

Looking at her, reminded me of her mother, but in a different way, she looks more like a fighter, she stared back at me without blinking, that I had to bend my kneel to be on the same level with her.

"Brittany, I am a friend, and I only want the best for you.......

I was still trying to speak, when she took it from me.

"You want the best for me, by kidnapping me and my Aunt Mary? She asked rhetorically, and I buried my face in shame. Maybe I shouldn't have just carried her like that, I should have tried explaining to her, but that would be wasting too much time.

"You are right Whitney, I shouldn't have take you and aunt Mary the way I did. I....

"Yes, you will take us back, so that we can go back to our lives, we don't want anything to do with you". The little girl is really smart and I fell for her at that instant, but before I could get a chance to defend myself, she asked.

Wait! How did you know my name? I looked around me, hoping that Samantha would come out and take it from me. She is the one that knows how to take care of kids, I have never been the type to really understand kids, but I was willing to learn, and seeing that she was wining, I gave up and gestures to Julianna, who was standing by the door, to get Samantha.

I tried to prepare her mind, before her mother walks in, by ignoring her earlier question, and saying something else instead.

"Would you like to see your mother again? I asked, and I could see the look in her eyes. It was that of shock, and even her nanny, who had buried her face since she was carried in, looked up at me, and asked.

"What?

I was about to answer her, when a sleepy Samantha walked in, she was still rubbing her eyes, but when she saw the little girl on the floor, She stood transfixed, opened her eyes wide, as if she just saw a ghost, then she screamed her name, as though, if she whispers it, she wouldn't hear.

"Whitney? Her voice broke, and the little girl looked up at her. She doesn't seem to recognize her very much, or maybe she isn't as happy, as they had thought she would be, seeing her.

"Sammy? It was Mary that spoke up, and she even got up and ran to meet Samantha half way. This time, Whitney got up from the floor and stood, staring at them, with a look of confusion, written all over her face.

I thought I would never see you again. Edward...... She tries to explain but only ended up crying, then buried her face in her arms, but not for once, did Samantha, take her eyes away from her child.

The look was awkward, that I started thinking of how to help remedy the situation.

"Why don't we have this reunion, at my inner chamber, over a glass of Juice and cheese? Samantha turned to me and smiles at me. That was when she probably recognized that I was there.

I could tell she was happy, I was happier, seeing her smile that way. Even though her daughter haven't said anything to her, she knows that it's only going to be a matter of time, before she comes around.

"Thank you". She whispers, and I nodded my head.

I was going to leave them at the inner chamber, for I have a business meeting to attend to. So after I made them comfortable at the inner chamber, I excused myself. leaving the three, to try and catch up on somethings they must have missed out on.
