Chapter 7:
EJ and William were ready from work and off to EJ's car heading home when EJ stopped. Sami's car was still there. Both EJ and Will hurried towards the car, already having a bad feeling about this.
'EJ look' shouted Will as he grabbed Sami's purse and keys from the floor.
EJ was in complete shock. 'SAMANTHA'.
They stayed put and called Roman and informed him about Sami's disappearance. Roman, Bo and Hope were in the parking area of the building in a few minutes. They searched the area for clues.
'Does this place have security cameras EJ?' asked Roman.
'Yes it does, there's one over there' EJ pointed out, showing off the camera on his left side 'And there's another one up there on my right' he stated.
'Ok so we are going to need those footages EJ' Roman stated.
'At what time did Sami leave the building?' asked Hope.
'She left about 2 hours ago as she wanted to go to the groceries she said, cos she wanted to cook something special for tonight' EJ told them urgently.
'And what was she wearing?' asked Bo.
'She was wearing a short pink dress with a purple cardigan on it' stated Will.
'Did something odd happen lately or did Sami had an argument or maybe you did something to someone that might want to get back at you for something EJ?' asked Hope.
'Not lately no but 7 months ago something did happen. I don't know if this is linked or not but maybe it might' EJ said.
'Ok go on what happened EJ?' asked Roman interested.
'Samantha didn't want anyone to know and that's why we never said anything. Someone managed to enter in her apartment and tried to..' EJ trailed off.
'Tried to what EJ?' asked Will as even he didn't know about this.
'Tried to rape her' EJ stated
'What?' they all hissed
'And what happened? Who was it?' asked Bo
'Alan..does the name sound familiar?' asked EJ
'The guy who raped Sami so long ago!' announced Roman.
'Yes apparently. The kids were in their bedroom and Johnny heard Sami screaming and crying for help, he...he went over to her room and saw someone covering her and he came knocking hard on my door crying and begged me to go and help her out which of course I did' EJ finished.
'Why didn't Sami say anything? Why didn't she report this?' asked Hope.
'She was a total mess Hope and she didn't feel like talking about it to anyone accept me since I was the one who knew besides her. I told her plenty of times that she should report this but she kept insisting and it wasn't my place to go against her wishes as much as I wanted to report him' EJ told her.
'EJ did he do it? Did that son of a bitch manage to rape my daughter again?' asked Roman tensed.
'No, I stopped him just in time I guess' EJ told him.
Everyone was shocked. This was something to start on they decided. EJ was a total mess. He was worried sick about Sami, about where she was and who had kidnapped her. He couldn't stop his mind from thinking if the person who kidnapped her was hurting her or even worse. He felt totally helpless...
