"Hey! Are you okay?"
"Hmmm?" Lillian replied groggily. She opened her eyes to a fuzzy image of someone. She blinked several times until the picture became clearer.
A young man in a black suit, the same one as the other men who kidnapped her, bent down next to her. His spiky black hair was up and his gray eyes waited for an answer. His face was of a man in his twenty. He gently removed the cloth out of Lillian's mouth.
"Who are you…?" she asked softly.
"Before I answer that, tell me if you're okay," he replied.
"I think I am…"
The boy let out a soft sigh and smiled as he untied the rope behind her.
"I'll take that as a yes then."
"I answered your question but you did not answer my question," Lillian said.
He let out a small laugh and replied, "I'm Shane but you probably don't remember since it had been 4 years."
"Shane…? That name is not familiar to me."
"Makes sense because you never really knew my name." Shane scratched his head. "I'm your classmate in Bluebell High. You know… that one guy who threw trashes at you for the class's entertainment and got you in trouble with the teacher… or you could say I'm your old secret admirer?"
Lillian tilted her head. Nothing he said rang a bell in her head. She had no recollections of anything. But what does secret admire? The girl questioned herself. Does it mean a secret creeper?!
Lillian widened her eyes and backed away from the strange person.
"Mister stranger is a secret creeper!" She pointed at the guard.
"W-what? N-no I'm not!" Shane protested. Unfortunately, his voice didn't get through the girl. She screamed as she ran off to the other side of the room. "H-hey! Don't run!"
"Brother said mister creeper is bad bad person"
"I'm not a secret creeper!"
"Brother! HELP ME!"
"STOP BEING SO LOUD!"
Shane tackled Lillian and covered her mouth with his hand before she screamed again.
"Shut up! Do you want us to get caught?" he warned. "I sneaked in here to help you escape this place."
"But you are one of mister strangers for that lady. Why are you helping me? And I do not know you, why should I listen to you?"
"I'll answer all of your questions later! We gotta get out of here before Felicity come here."
With that, Shane grabbed Lillian's hand and ran out of the room.
Out of luck, Cam and Nori encountered Phillip and Laney on a crossroad.
"Phillip! Lill-" Cam shouted.
"I know! They kidnapped my sister! That woman planned on getting me, too," Phillip replied. He pulled out a phone from his pocket and studied the screen. "I know where Lillian is. I secretly slipped a small GPS in her pocket in case she got lost. Let's go!"
Before Phillip could get any further, he noticed something on his phone.
"Wait… the red dot that indicated Lillian is moving away from its spot! Something is wrong!"
Cam's chest tightened as if the weight had pressured on his body even more. What if he came too late? What if he never gets to see her again? Those questions brought more fears to his heart.
"Phillip! They're behind us! We gotta go!" Laney alerted.
Lillian's brother nodded and threw the phone to Cam.
"It's all up to you now. Go find her, Cam," he said.
"Yeah! Go find Lillian for us, we'll support you all the way!" Nori exclaimed.
Laney smiled and added, "Go find her, she's waiting for you."
"There they are!" the securities yelled from behind.
"You better find my sister and if you don't, I'll throw you off a cliff. GO FIND HER!"
Cam nodded his head and followed the direction on the GPS.
