I still had hope that my big sister would do something that would result in me being rescued, but after 3 days, nothing happened, and no one came in.

  "I guess she is just talk afterall" – I can hear the guards at my door talking.

  "Yeah, I seen how she looks like. I can sp her around and make her my bitch any time of the day."

  I am just waiting in the corner for the next person to come in, hoping it might be someone that will save me.

  The next customer came in; he slowly took off my skirt and started to touch me below the waist; it felt weird; I felt like an object, not a person; it was the first time in a while that I tried to fight back, I kicked and filed my arms around, but it resulted in nothing, he didn't hit me, but he seemed annoyed.

  When he was done, he left the room with a smile.

  "See you tomorrow, cutie" – He waved his hand while leaving me undressed on the bed.

  I started to cry; I didn't know what to do; there was no light in this room other than a small lightbulb, and the bed, as comfortable as it was, didn't help me at all.

  The next 3 days, the same man came and spent many more hours with me; in some sort of sick and twisted way, he treated me like his daughter but also used me to satisfy his sexual desire. I don't want to get into the details of all the things he has done to me.

  The next day, my uncle is sitting in the room with me.

  "That girl is all talk, she doesn't have the guts to do anything. We didn't have to deploy that much security to begin with. Maybe I will forgive her this time," – He boasted in front of them pinning Leona's photo on the wall and shot darts at it.

  I couldn't reply or do anything; he was right"- Maybe my big sister lied to me; she is just like the rest of my family.

  A bit more time passed, and I began to get lost, bnkly staring at a part of the room.

  Then, after a few more hours, I heard a big commotion, scream and what sounded like gunshots; this jolted me from my confused state.

  Somewhere in the trafficking ring VIP waiting room:

  "You are one of the fuckers that like diddling kids, that was my sister you know?" - I spoke to the guy with my hood on

  "Who the hell are you? And looks who is talking, you are in a pce meant for that" – I had enough of his shit already with a quick motion of my gloved hands, I put one of them on my pistol.

  "Well I am going to show you a magic trick, close you eyes and rex your arms, I will do the same, this helps me calm down."

  "Sure, whatever floats your boat. I don't want to get into fights with other VIP's" – He took the bait; I won't have any mercy.

  I put the gun in his right hand and slowly guided it to his head; I pulled the trigger on the gun using his own hand, but it was too te when he realized what was happening.

  This pce has a weird rule that you will be kicked out if you don't get along with all VIP clients, and suckers are more likely to do anything to tell them this way.

  Back to Andrea's room:

  The guards began to shout in the hallway

  "It's the police, don't let them get the brats!" - From the voice, it was that of my uncle who gave them this command.

  Gunshots are still ringing through the narrow spaces of the building.

  Then, after a while, my door opened to reveal my uncle entering, storming into the room with a pistol; he held me by my neck and with the pistol to my head.

  In the room, 4 people burst in; they are wearing a police uniform, except one of them, which is weird.

  My uncle made himself look like her surrendered and he was going to go willingly with the police; he then picked up the pistol again, but this time, not all the police officers could react in time; only the one without a uniform wearing a hood drew their pistol and him and fired a round in his shoulder and two in his legs.

  I can't remember much more, all that I remember is waking up in a hospital bed with Leona near me; I cried when I saw her face again; was this all a bad dream for me?

  "You are finally awake. You worried me, you passed out and had a bad dream," – She spoke in a soothing and comforting tone. She is wearing a hoodie, the same hoodie I saw on the person shooting my uncle.

  "I know it isn't I recognize the hoodie. I don't know how it happened or why you arrived so te, but thank you, you didn't betray me"- I slowly rose up from the bed and wrapped my hands around her waist.

  "I am sorry, I couldn't protect you the first time" – That's all she said before embracing me back.

  Leona didn't say much; there was no need for words, but the night I came to live in the house she is staying in, something weird happened to me and my body. It started to sweat and heat up, and I kept removing more and more clothes, I got scared when I was sleeping alone in my room, I kept seeing shadows and people trying to constantly touch me.

  It got so bad that I went like that to my big sister.

  "I should have aimed for the head, anyway, you can sleep in the same bed as me" – Leona carried me in her arms to her bed, pulled me in a close hug and then I slowly drifted to sleep.

  That night, something had awakened within me, something I won't forget until the day I die.
