Ice started forming on her open skin, and her knees began freezing to the fridge floor.
She quickly raised her knees, making sure she stayed in a squatting position so her flesh made no contact with the freezer surface.
She looked up, and merely seeing the yellow light in the freezer and the naked wire beside it made her heart feel like someone dropped it in a bowl of acid.
She stayed still since any movement from her might just get her electrocuted and no one will ever find her corpse.
All she can do is pray and hope for a mercifully journey to heaven __ or hell.
She has never felt this insane cold before, all her life.
The freezer got colder by the seconds, and her fear magnified with it.
She tried to close her eyes and shut out the episode trying to creep in, but she wasn’t successful cos she fell into another episode immediately.
FLASHBACK ~ AGE ELEVEN*
Emory’s dad embarked on his usual business trip early today, so it’s just young Emory and her Ma in the house.
Mrs. Carson would have followed her husband, but leaving Emory in care of the maids is a task she finds cumbersome to do, so she just had to stay.
She’s in the kitchen, her hair in a smooth french braid as she tried to make chocolate smoothie for Emory.
She has always liked the kitchen despite being from a rich family herself. She loves cooking.
Emory is in the living room, sitting on the couch with no care in the world as she watched her favorite movie (Titanic)
She watched it countless times already, and she never gets bored.
There are lots of half-eaten apples around her…her handiwork, then a mess of popcorn on the ground from her popcorn bowl.
She was already preparing herself to cry at the end of the movie again when a familiar form settled beside her.
She turned her neck to the side and blinked when she saw him.
Uncle Fred, her father’s junior brother.
He has the handsome smile on his mischievous face as usual, and his eyes went to her small breasts again.
“Mind giving me some popcorn?” He dipped his hand into the bowl on her laps, but his second hand went to her bare thighs, rubbing them slowly.
Emory pushed his hands away, and the popcorn fell from her as she stood and rushed all the way into the kitchen.
When she got to the door, she hugged the frame and looked back at him.
“You belong to me, beautiful” he mouthed, and she smirked.
BACK TO NOW*
Emory let out her tears in the freezer, regretting all-over again.
She should have told her mother about it when uncle Fred started his strange habits, she shouldn’t have kept it.
Maybe if she didn’t, she wouldn’t have gotten terribly hurt.
And now, she’s about to die in this stupid freezer.
Maybe it’s all for the best after all. Thank you very much.
She wiped her tears and was about to start another round when she noticed the coldness is gone.
It’s not freezing in there anymore. She looked up and was shocked to see the yellow light is off.
Did her captor change his mind?
The freezer lid suddenly hissed open, and she was more shocked to see the face that appeared.
Omar!
“Here” he gave her an hand, and she took it quickly without thinking of the consequences.
He pulled her out of the freezer, and she almost fell, but he held her by the shoulders, stilling her.
“You ok?” He asked softly, and she looked up to his face.
He looks genuinely concerned, and another thing…
Why is she not getting triggered?
Why is she not feeling like vomiting right now when his hands are on her?
“You ok?” He asked again, bringing her out of her reverie.
“I’m fine” she replied, releasing herself from him, and that was when she noticed the freezer is already unplugged, and the lock is broken.
Even the room door is broken, and the slaughtered padlock is by the frame.
“Who locked you in here?” He asked.
“How did you find me?” She counter-asked.
“When I arrived at the park, I saw a black figure dragging something towards this building. The person was wearing a trenchcoat, and I was about to brush it off that it’s probably one of the cleaners, then I saw your open car trunk and the fallen bag. I figured out it was you and traced it here.” he explained.
“How did you break the door, the lock?” She asked again.
“I got the lock breaker from the storeroom of this bloc” he smiled, and she sighed.
“Who was that? If you have an enemy who locks you in a freezer, then you should be careful” he said.
“It might be one of you Titans, who knows? I mean… y’all once kidnapped my friend” she shrugged.
“That was…
He dragged his words as he rubbed his nape awkwardly with the sheepish smile.
“Why do you always let North bully you? Isn’t she your junior?” She asked, walking out of the room.
“Oh…I.. it’s not…
“Forget it” she cut him off.
“Ok” he replied, and she faced him.
“Exactly what I’m talking about. Don’t you ever disagree?” She rolled eyes.
“You like tough guys?” He blinked.
“What are you talking about?” She smirked, and he laughed.
“Thanks for saving me, a lot” she said, and he nodded.
“It’s my pleasure”
They left the bloc together and went back to the park to get their bags before leaving for the department.
After they left, Levi came out from somewhere in the park like Lucifer, taking off his helmet fast.
He actually arrived same time as Omar, and he followed Omar to the freezer room.
When Omar went to find the lock breaker, he already broke the padlock with a stone.
Basically, he’s the one who broke it
He’s also the one who unplugged the freezer.
He just had to leave and let Omar take the glory.
He took calculated steps to Emory’s car.
The shoe prints left by the Vans of the abductor is still there, so he snapped it with his phone before heading for the department.

BM DEPARTMENT*
“Emz! So you’re still alive?” Nina gasped when Emory showed up in the midst of students.
Almost all the department will be going for the trip, so dramas is a must.
“Why weren’t you picking my calls?” Lizzy asked, adjusting her small messenger bag.
“You didn’t reply my texts either” Rebekah added.
“I was kidnapped and locked in a freezer. Omar saved me” Emory replied straight.
“What!” The three chorused.
“Full gist when we arrive at Forte” Emory replied.
“No. You should spill it now” Nina insisted.
“Were you really locked in a freezer?” Rebekah asked.
“I wasn’t smiling when i said it” Emory replied seriously.
“Who could have done that” Lizzy muttered fearfully.
“Hey, girls” Rain joined them suddenly.
“Rain!” Nina gushed, checking her out.
“Your style is a bit old-school, but it’s still acceptable” she said.
“I know, right?” Rain laughed, and Rebekah and Lizzy joined the chats, but Emory’s eyes are somewhere else.
Levi is just coming in with the i-will-kill-you look on his closed off face as he advanced towards his friends.
