Kidnapped

Chapter 37

LIZZYS POV

HE IS LOOKING FOR ME!
Did he see me?
Crap. If he saw me what would happen if captures me again? When Ryan were to come back and saw that I was gone, what would he do?
His whole time I have been frozen. I should probably start running.

Kiddy is in my arms and we are dashing through the trees.
I dodge fallen down trees, bushes, and branches as I make my way in to the depth of the woods.

I look back. I guess he didn't see me. He isn't chasing me. I run out of breath and decide to rest. I lean on a tree. I hold my side. Cramp. I am really out of shape.
I look from where I came from. I cannot see the exit of the forest. I start to walk toward where I came from.
I didn't stay in a straight line. I should have.
I walk back to find my way.
Okey... I remember jumping over this broken branch. But did I go left or right?
Left.
I turn left. But then I look right.
No. Right.
What. No left.
Right.
Left.
The trees look all the same.
Two words.
I'm lost.

RYANS POV
"Do you guys have a phone here?" I ask the cashier. "We...yes...but that is for employees only. Sorry." The man says with a grumpy looking face. "Please. I have no where to go. Please." Just as he was about to turn me down again, a tall, short haired woman came from the back of the counter.
She worked here too.
"Aww come on Paul." She said leaning on one of his shoulders.
Then another comes out and leans on his other shoulder. "Yha. Come on Paul."
"I have been the manager of this gas station for three for years, and I will not break one of the rules for this child."

"Paaaauuuullll !" they cry.

He looks at both of their puppy dog faces. He sighs

"Just this once." He says. "Thank you." I say to the girls.
I dial my moms phone number. Ring...Ring...Ring...Ri- "hello?" My moms voice says. "Mom! It's me. Ryan." I say so happy she picked up. "That's not possible. My boy is dead." She says. She slurs.
She's drunk.
