Two years later!
Jhonia is now 20 years of age. She spent her two years learning how to fight! How to sneak and take photos of other people for blackmailing work of course, for her uncle. It became a part of her, to use evidence as a way to protect and have people do as her uncle says.
She was very smart and good at what she does but that wasn't enough. The day before... She met a group of men who tried to have their ways with her but failed! The present time… Another group of men shows up at her uncle Bryane's place as she is leaving out to go to her job.
"Hey! Sweet thing... How are your parents?" The man with a small tattoo on his face said to her then asked her? He moved his hands to her face and she boxes it away.
“Don't touch me!” She demanded. Her uncle came out and stood watching them.
"You little bitch!" He said to her, as two of his men held her by both arms. He was getting ready to slap her, when she lifted her foot and kicked him, he stepped back and dropped. He pulled out his gun pointing it at her.
"You!" He said, walking back to her.
"That's enough. Eric, if you kill the girl you won't get back your money." Bryane said to him.
"Right! Right!" He responded as he began to put the gun away.
“Jhonia, don't trust anyone.” Her mother's words replayed in her head! She smiled and swung both her arms from the two men withholding her.
"Her parents are gone. This is your doing as well! Why don't you let the girl go?" Bryane said and added before he asked, as if he was being polite. The man walked over to Bryane. Laughing! He stood next to Bryane watching Jhonia as she stood their.
"Their deaths or not of mine to care. See? I only want my money... Find my money, or else I'm going to start killing and this time I won't stop!" He said to Bryane while looking at Jhonia.
"I understand! I will work something out "as always." Come on, "let's talk about it together and come to a conclusion." Shall we?" Bryane said, askingly to the man. Jhonia marked his words carefully. These are words he used with people he is working with. Those who are close to him! Those with whom he does fifty - fifty business profits with.
"Jhoni-ni, why don't you leave us to work this out." He said to Jhonia, she smiled and left. He and the others watched Jhonia leave before they turned around and entered the house.
"Wtf?" The man remarked from the pain he felt from the punch Bryane gave him.
"Jhoni-ni is very smart if she finds out the truth? I will make sure she gets rid of you first." Bryane said to him explain then ask, he then added.
"She owes us five million dollars due to her parents. It's not her fault. But now she will have to pay it back to me and you just have to pretend the money is owed to you. Simple! Don't mess this shit up!" Bryane said to him explain what is actually going briefly and tell the man not to mess up.
"Understood! If I had the money I would pay you myself! Haha! She is too pure. I bet no one has touched her Apple yet!" The man agreed and then said to him, he chuckled and said as he predicted.
"Don't be so sure... Humph! On her sweet sixteen, her cousin Charles messes with her a bit! She and her mother keep it from her dad! A secret to the father only." Bryane said, with a smile he tells how she was messed with when she turned sixteen and it’s something her father doesn’t know because they kept it from him only.. Suddenly his wife Dana came in in anger.
“I want her out of this house. I don't care where she goes. I want her out.” She yelled! Bryane got up from the couch and went to the kitchen. Dana was drinking water to calm herself down.
“I'm sick and tired of that your Jhoni-ni. That bitch, how dare she speak to me with no respect? How dare she?” Dana yelled! Stamping her feet on the floor and then asking him before she asked.
"Okay, okay, calm down. She leaves in a week. One week hmm? I have decided to sell her to the Pinnock's they're looking for an innocent wife, though she's not naive, she will do. Hmm?" Bryane said and helped calm her down. He asked and told her what he decided to do with her regardless. His wife smiled and stamped her feet with happiness.
"Good. Now don't be angry anymore, she's leaving and see these men have come for the money her parents owe. She will agree." Bryane said telling her that Jhonia will be gone and she has to agree to it.. His wife's face glows with happiness. Dave who was coming through the back door to the kitchen overheard and was not happy.
"How was she disrespectful?" Dave asked his mother after his father had left the kitchen and his mother was smiling away. Her smile vanished when Dave asked his questions.
"Was I not there? Mother, I have never been so disappointed in anyone like I do you now." Dave said and walked away from her. He walked up the stairs in his room and then he went into Jhonia’s room beneath the stairs. He packed clothes for Jhonia and himself! He left home without his parents knowing.
He got into his car and drove away from home. Half an hour later. He arrived at the supermarket. Jhonia is working part-time. Early in the morning till 1:00 PM noon. An hour later! When she got off work Dave's car was parked outside. She walked over but he wasn't inside.
"Jhonia, do you not see the sign? No parking!" A male voice said, to Jhonia. She turned around and it was an officer.
“I'm really sorry, I forgot to tell him not to park here! Forgive me?” Jhonia asked? With her hands together with a smile.
"See? This, you see your smile Jhonia, okay, I forgive you for him, now call him and have him move it." The officer asked a question, he then warned her of her smile and said he forgive her
“Thank you so much, Junior, you are the best,” Jhonia said, giving him a wink. He chuckled and left her. Dave came out of the supermarket with bags.
"Get in." He said, walking around the car and putting the bags in the back seat! He gets inside the car. While! Jhonia was trying to figure what's happening?
"Get, Jhonia my sweet cousin, please! Get inside this car right now." He began to yell but then he decided not to, he opened the door for her. She gets in and seated herself and looks at him confusingly. Dave started the car and drove off angrily not saying anything but she could tell he was not in a good mood.
“Where are we going?” Jhonia asked? Putting on her seatbelt.
"Running away from home. That place is no longer my home, and you shouldn't make it or call it your home either." He said, holding the staring with one hand and the other he ran over his face.
“Why are we living, and why so suddenly? Cousin at least tell me why are we leaving?” Jhonia asked? But he didn't respond, he just kept driving. Seconds turned into minutes, minutes into half-hour, half-hour into an hour, an hour into hours. He stopped finally.
"We are almost out of gas, you need rest. After the morning we keep moving." Dave said, as he pulled the car over into a motel parking lot! He got out of the car leaving her. He returned after some time and took the things from the back seat and closed the door.
"Let's go Jhonia, we have to keep moving by morning the farther we are the better." He said to Jhonia but she couldn't understand what's happening and why all of a sudden.
