"What have I ever done to you to deserve all this pain"
"You did nothing, but your brother did and you'll suffer, only because of his evil deeds"
She was kidnapped and tortured both mentally and physically by the World's most feared and cold hearted...
Ziya's POV My morning started with my brother, Zyan yelling at me from downstairs "Ziya, come on wake up.. I really don't wanna miss my flight dude". I whined inside my warm, comfortable duvets and threw my legs in annoyance,but convinced myself to slowly opened my eyes and took a small peek outside the duvet only to bury back my face in the duvets again, the sun was way tooo bright today. I frowned and sat up straight with my eyes still closed. "Are you waking up or not? It's already 7am, Zi!!" He yelled again. 7am? Shit. My eyes shot opened as I realized how late I was. Today, Zyan was going to Busan for his work for 2 months. He works for an IT company, he's 2 years older than me and he's the one I have in this world, he has always been there for me. Our father died when our mother was pregnant with me and then when I turned 12 and my brother turned 14, she got married again to our stepfather Josh. Things were pretty good, we were like a little happy family but unfortunately after 3 years she was diagnosed with blood cancer that too third stage. After her death, our stepfather, Josh started showing his true colors by torturing us. He used to make Zyan work all day even though he was just a student and was hardly 18 but if Zyan used to make any mistakes or if he used to fail in any of the tasks that was given, I was punished. Josh used to beat me up, lock me in a room without any source of light without water and food which cause me to develop Nyctophobia. But Zyan always tried his best not to make any mistake, he worked day and night and even managed to attend school, he indeed was a hardworking and strong person but seeing me scared, trembling, injured would always break his heart as Josh would punish me even if he did a slightest mistake. But one day, we both managed to run away from Josh.. it's been 3 years, I haven't seen him once and I hope I never see him again. I'm scared of Josh, I am terrified to be specific but Zyan always encouraged me to me strong. After 15mins, I walked downstairs wearing a very comfortable outfit since after dropping Zyan at the airport, I will have to go for my job at the central cafe, I have been working there just so that I could give some financial support to Zyan.

"Zi, you'll be alright here alone right? You know, you can call me anytime if you need something or if something happens" Zyan said with a worried voice, he was upset and wasn't ready to leave me alone for so many days even if i was 20 now. It's was the first time we both were going stay away from each other for so long and to be honest I didn't feel good about it too, It scared me for some reason but I avoided thinking about anything negative, This was a big opportunity for him to grow in his job. "You don't worry about me oppa.. I can take care of myself, you just concentrate on your project" I smiled and taking his hands in mine. He sighed heavily and we both stepped out of the apartment. I drove for 40 mins and reached the airport, through out the car ride, we sang random songs along with the radio, he kept cracking his lame ass jokes, we even stopped at a small cafe to have some sandwiches cause he will never allow me to skip meals and being my brother he knew once I enter my work place I will forget to eat. He always took care of me and treated me as a princess, which was rare in brother-sister relationship but we had no body except each other. We walked inside the airport, it was already time so he had to go and that's when I started feeling weak and sad inside, all the negative thoughts that I was avoiding for so long came back rushing to my mind and my eyes started tearing up but I controlled myself as I didn't wanted him to get upset knowing how sensitive he was about me. He turned around facing me with a sad smile on his face. I ran and hugged him tightly, holding back my tears "I'll miss you oppa, it'll be difficult since I never stayed away from you that too for such a long time" I murmured with my face buried in his chest. "You are my strong girl right? Take care of yourself and do not over work yourself okay?? Now let me go, don't make me all emotional. Love you" he said with a smile and seeing him smiling I smiled too "I love you too oppa. Have a safe journey and please do take care" I said and he smiled widely and turned away waving me a goodbye.

I stood there watching him go, I didn't realize but tears were streaming down my cheeks, I don't know why I was so upset and feeling scared and anxious.. yeah we never stayed away from each other but it's not like we won't ever meet. He is just going for 2 months, why am I feeling so anxious about it? ______________________________________________
Third person's POV Ziya walked to her car wiping her tears away, with puffy eyes and red nose and cheeks, she sighed heavily deciding not to think about negative things anymore. But little did she knew that the thoughts that were haunting her was nothing compared to what she was going to face soon.
