Do nothing. I will be there.

Be where? Do nothing? Van doesn’t even know where I am. I gave as much information as possible to Edo, but it’s not enough for him to know that we’re locked in a basement apartment. I’m not sitting on my ass and waiting for him to spring me out of here like some type of damsel in distress. Van has the wrong one…

By the time I finish eating, Zara is still picking at her food. I don’t mind taking it easy and getting our bearings for a few minutes, but we don’t have long before these men come back. We should at least assess our situation now that we’ve had some sleep.

“Zara, come on. We need to check this place out.”

“Why?”

I’d forgotten how naïve teenagers could be. Poor thing was counting on Eddie to save her, when I’m not entirely sure he couldn’t have rescued her from this in the first place. Van and I were separated, she was glued to the damn man’s side all night.

“We need to escape, Zara. We can’t sit around waiting for someone to save us.”

“Oh. Good point. So what do we do?”

“Let’s go up to the door and see if there’s any chance of breaking through it.”

Zara’s eyes turn to sand dollars. “You can break down a door?”

“I mean… I don’t know. We’d better try.”

“What if we wake them up or something and you know… pew pew…”

“We have to take some risks, Zara. Sitting around could be a risk. For all you know, they’re holding us for ransom, which these Italians have no reason to pay, and we’re dead.”

Except Van would pay any amount to set me free. I’m carrying his child.

Zara doesn’t seem particularly convinced, but she nods.

“Okay,” she says bravely. “Then I’ll go up to the door.”

“Are you sure?”

“I’m smaller. I can tiptoe quietly so they won’t hear me.”

The stairs are made of stone, so it’s not like they’ll creak, but she seems eager, so I allow her to head up the stairs first. I want to hear and see whatever she sees, so I don’t let her go all the way up alone. Zara quickly gets to the door and touches the surface.

“It’s wood,” she whispers. “But it looks like there are huge bolts on the other side.”

She presses her eyes to the keyhole and tries to get a good look through it.

“I kinda see bolts…”

She turns her body around, trying to get a better view, but there’s not much that can be done. I think we just have to go for it.

“Are there any weapons down here we could use?” I ask her. “I can try breaking through the door, but we don’t know what we’re going to find on the other side.”

“Weapons? You have a skillet.”

“It’s a bit cheap… but it might work.”

“How are you going to get through the door?”

Girl, I have no idea.

Zara and I tiptoe back downstairs and she grabs the skillet, freeing my hands so I could try to break down the door armed with nothing but my brains and those cheap ass chairs.
