So it all comes down to this. A confused lonely child seeking redemption after the kidnap of her father. My name is Ajike and this is how it all ended.
It was a bright Thursday morning, I woke up with a bad feeling in my tummy. I was upset but I didn't know why, I thought it was my mood swings or a sign of my period but my period ended last week. So what was this? I waved it off and went on with my morning routine.
I was getting ready for school when I heard a knock on my door, I stopped for a moment and wondered when my father started knocking. He d in and said there was nothing new to see. I didn't want to think about it too much, maybe he was being polite today? I straightened my skirt and walked open the door but I didn't find anyone there. I looked at both ends of the hallway but no one was there. I called out to my dad but no one answered
I wanted to close my door back but something was there a package. My face darkened in horror when I saw the seal. I ran to my father's room and called him but he didn't answer. I kept yelling and searching all the rooms in the mansion but I didn't see him. I see crying now, huge tears dropped with snot running down my nose.
I walked back to my room, drained from all the running and screaming, and looked at the package z I tore it open angrily and then the hologram popped up.
"Sherah you have exceeded your 15 days of grace, you have needed to be returned turned our money or made any attempt to tell us why you have failed to comply, therefore we are taking your father as a guarantee that you'll pay back, you have an hour to explain yourself, return the gift or watch your father die. The choice is yours. Do have a lovely day, Cultrox."
The hologram turned into a timer, 59;59 ticking away. I was disgusted at this robot, my father as a guarantee, what was that?! Who used a human as a guarantee and who told people to have a nice day after kidnapping their only family? I don't know why I asked all these questions instead of looking for a solution. Maybe because this wasn't the first time I had taken a loan from them.
I took the hologram and pressed the button that will take me to Cultrox, it ran a scan and in a second I was transported to their world, Meta. I was in front of the courtroom and when the guard saw me, he sighed and opened the door, I heard the other users laughing and pointing. As I said, it's not my first time borrowing. So I worked inside head held high s I stood in front of the council.
"Sherah 217 tsk, you never learn do you?" The judge said.
"I just want my father, George. Who takes a human as a !" I yelled looking at all of the mad council members.
"If you want your father, you know what you must do." Augustina a council member said.
Augustina was the smart one, always nice and blunt.
I took in a deep breath and said.
"I can't say it, it's too embarrassing"
"Fine, we will kīll your father then!" The judge said and made to hit the execute button.
"Wait, fine, I'll say it"
I cleaned my palms on my school skirt and closed my eyes and yelled
"I took the money, so I could buy my boyfriend a gift!"
"Game over"
"WTF!" I yelled at my laptop screen
"Like what kind of boring answer was that, now we have to start the mission from the beginning" My teammate yelled at me
"Wo, I'm logging out Sha. I'll be back to play by 10 pm, make I chop"
I removed my headset and I decided to head down to eat, then I saw something that drained the blood from my face, you guessed it. The same package as the game.
