Jess drags herself into work next week after a weekend spent in hospital, still with the knee brace. It's not broken, but still really fucked up. Now she has a hospital bill to pay off as this is one not being footed by Maggie. Last time was a rare gesture from a millionaire and she'll never get that lucky again.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dQngmhU0L

"Seriously? Do you have no life outside work? You could have stayed at home, you didn't have to come in." Bella says, standing right at the sign in booths.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTYqL1pJC4
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCW1WpTSBgG
"Nope. And I have to, rent and medical bills."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzygA18cmOp
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66iFW57Q2V
"Okay... Anyway, Maggie and Anna wants to see you before shift start in that case. Main floor out here is still setting up the androids, toddler play zone, go karts, etc."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZwraJW5n5
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkWtElv9se
"Lead the way then." 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oZ8bfQ3Ov

As they walk past heading to the elevator to the security office, she looks over at the medical tent. Just Brianna is present, she's setting up alone. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9k5s3WrQ7
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxp5XdIOl8L
"Where's Adam?" She whispers to Bella. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9AlKLtHsU
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcVLingwqS
"He quit that afrernoon we sent you to the hospital. His going back to work for emergency services out on the street."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnBIJ8YtIv

"Who was her mother?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Nx8MoTXya
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWHNsG9RDi
And Bella stops, turning to look at Jess. "Forget I said anything, I'm sorry."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhkbLSaKTd
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqzJWPxvDB
And then they continue on. Her co-workers have secrets like she does. They arrive upstsirs, seeing Maggie talking to people, Anna not present. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPkF1KDVTG
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UURFx4t7x
"Maggie-" Bella begins, Jess cutting her off. "First of all, I just want to say I am not shooting up drugs. I have never touched drugs and if you want to fire me, go ahead. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QmYdbPxAu
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0Z0FEqAIM
Heck, I'll quit right now myself. I'm problematic, dragging drama to work with me. I sware I'm not doing it on purpose and I actually have no real intention of getting to know any of my co-workers. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hulrJsJG7
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCNoVszEEL
I'm only here because I need a job to eat and pay my bills and that's it."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgttfvjU9jS
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOlUyJciwo
Maggie stops talking mid setence hearing what was just said. "Oh..." Bella whispers, looking to the side, her hair falling and covering her face.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjQyYW08rC
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQHa19OScC
Maggie turns around and takes a seat, leaning on one of the desks. "Jesse-"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iujOasgqZ
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ivd7jlsmD
"I prefer Jess."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdmoMcLV13

"You're right, I'm sorry. I don't know you all that well. Jess, when my now dead and ex-husband murdered my children, 1 girl and four boys it tore me apart, I was an emotional wreck for years. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmRExJMiKw
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbnVrs0bEB
I met him in University and dropped out as we fell pregnant, we married and I got pregnant several times after that. I stayed home living the home house wife life, he graduated and was also the bread winner, we we're rich, had a mansion and then he killed them and himself. He had been a tad abusive to me, but I never thought he was capable of murder.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4suaeacD6
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG7cPvhOTy
Fast forward a few years, I'm slowly picking myself up after grieving, I now run this place, it's not what I want to do forever, but there was alot of fines and debts that need paying, and I could only ignore them so long, I'm also in the position where I'm fucking loaded from the insurance payouts and that this fun centre is actually profitable, I sold the mansion and don't live there. It wasn't in complete disrepair, well, it kind of was. Give or take that, I still sold the plot of land it was on which was hundreds of acres.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5Mc05xdnZ
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlIwr6b94X
I fix this place up fully, pay off every fine and debt, have a full rotating roster for every department and I'm going to sell this bussiness to somebody else on the condition of they can't fire anybody in the first 12 months, they will sign a legally binding contract, I have a team of lawyers.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfeFwIeZl3
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZurIJpLkx

138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PwIAltUAx
"What I'm trying to tell you is what kind of boss am I let alone a human being if I am having no fucking empathy, compassion, understanding what so ever for other people? You aren't going to be fired by me unless you do something as bad as the ones who locked you in the android warehouse first shift, that's an immediate dissmial. And the county for this area fined me for that, laying out heating was a regulation in warehouses overnight even if they are not made for humans as accidents like yours happen.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fVDu5IHdD
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMc2t9z4Nj
I could have accidentally killed you, Jess. The county keeps a very close eyes on this place, there is constant reviews and other sectors sticking their nose in."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjk5muAfo3

138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPkUAs5lQN
"Wait, this is your first time seeing androids?" Maggie starts laughing. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvlJJJPcZD
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW21jeiDn9K
"Yeah! Well, I saw them online... but never up close till now." Jess cries a little. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9QcuArPks

138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanJrRV6rkU

"Fashion designer." And Maggie holds a magazine out to Jess. Maggie's on the cover wearing a goregous sparkly jumpsuit.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvS3wQw6dWF
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGm4Fhx4cpa
"Is that yours? Did you design it?" Just a few months ago, she could have afforded that jumpsuit there, hefty price-tag not mattering.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3eilbktBW
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhzKwzQTA5
"Yes, I did. I dabble in it, but most of my time is eaten up by this place. Looking forward to when I can offically leave it all behind and pursue what I want to really do."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eQZgSC1TQ

"I rent a two bedroom apartment in a high rise overlooking the beach. It's still in the swanky part of the city. Get this, my neighbor is a Doctor as well. She co-developed the treatment for Hanahaki Disease. She moved in just last month. Crazy, I'm surrounded by bloody doctors." Maggie laughs.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8m09T9PZud
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLY6rvm1G2
"Who else is a Doctor around you? And what is Hanahaki?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcC9orI0DQG
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfIZvrWdSJ
"Me. I'm a Psychatrist, but I'm still a Doctor, Jesse." Says an unknown voice, turning around to see it's Anna. "And if you're lucky, you will never find out what Hanahaki is. It's brutual, but you could search it up later online I guess..."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0BfwGFwCd
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR9THpgNnv
"But not on company time." Maggie laughs. "I'm sorry, Jess. But I need to be actually running, I'm supposed to be in a group call soon. Uh, so, please don't quit... Bella will give you your tasks for today, you're on office duty, I can't have you on the floor with your leg still injured... Now, I have to run." And Maggie leaves.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBK2cu5S2OX
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QvWFBQEDf
"Jesse, so you know, I'm not here to make the employees of Maggie's lives worse or snitch on you all. I'm here to help, but it's not just you all. It's Maggie too... She has never been the greatest at dealing with people and that's where I come in."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXhaclbmF2

"That's okay, you can take some time to come around to the idea. You're not under any community based treatment order. I have an office near Maggie's if you want to talk." And Anna leaves. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUPmey79h9

"She does not seem like an annoying corporate-" Jess begins. 'No, she does not." Bella responds. Anyway, let me get you set up at a computer. Also, we reviewed the security footage, saw what Ren did. She has been discplined, but we have also talked to Jamie. Though I think it when in one ear and out the other for Jamie, she doesn't want to go to school, would prefer to hang out here and bring... her baby sister with it. There has to be something going on with her parents if her baby sister's not in childcare arrangement and at school for Jamie."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3yYoxUtPe

"And why can't we dob her into police?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNLsrA4EAT
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYjjB9papQ
"The law doesn't allow us. If a Truancy Officer wishes to check the funpark, turning up on their own accord, we have to let them in. Jamie and even her friends will get caught eventually anyway so let's just try and ignore her for now, she is paying money ontop of her season pass every single day... It helps pay our wages."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70uNMrrTRr

Jess looks at her like she's crazy. "What did you wear?" Bella asks her. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUkNxkx4d7

"Pink stripes and pink polka dots and lots of bows and sparkles..."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjFwgIsz3A

The day passes pretty uneventfully, has to stop during the day to take some pain meds and soon enough the day draws to a close. Just like clockworse, a text is recieved, Douglas.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJP7ZSOLHlp
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH6R9AyoF9
Douglas: Come outside, corner of the building, don't be noticed by Bella, enter the blind spot.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7c4cwdVng
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6bsQCRt1x
Jess: I have a leg brace on, my knee is still really fucked up from running from you. If you're going to grab me or whatever, just take it easy on my knee, please.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtDEE4VTBO
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGicsH8sA7

Jess: He wouldn't infront of everyone else.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaiWsyxejy
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhtNOIT5Ba
Douglas: Distracting Maggie is not that hard. I can have Green call her phone and waste her time. Everyone else? They won't overly give a shit about you. You have five minutes.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTVJ9XP6Ct
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGgCnWW0TG
She puts her phone down, sighing, collects her stuff and signs out. Bella has nothing to debrief anyone on. Heading out to around the side of the building, she sees Douglas classic green car waiting right in the back in the shadows. She can see some damage down down the side, but for the most part it looks cosmetic and they buffed most of it out. Douglas is hanging out in the drivers seat, but Bailey and Green are waiting outside. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdawVRNndPf
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTt4s65sl0p
"Seems it wasn't written off then." 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIqYjmcZ6Q
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXuCPx7IP3
They all look at her. "Thanks to you, the airbags don't work now and I'm going to have to look into a 3rd party work around option." Douglas moans, not getting out of the car. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGG8TiKb847
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YvJpCPkIp
"Come on, girly. Bag." Bailey says, holding his hand out gesturing for Jess bag which she hands over, him throwing it to Douglas through the window. He then takes her arm, Green taking her other and they force her into the backseat, mindful of her injured leg. Bailey does her seatbelt, but they don't let go of her arms the whole drive, taking back roads and other places.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFbGXbLooL
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIA8pFrrUt
"Where are we going?" She asks, which earns no reply. "Are you going to kill me?" Which finally elicts a response. "No, I'm not going to kill you. You're more my informer on the inside. Make to much trouble though, and I will kill you then and find someone else.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ9kUFfOTM

138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO4jd1oweE
They pull up to what looks like an abandoned building and the definition of sketch. "Is this where you took me the first time you-"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCi6n5rvXX

138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdXJu0xQtL
And Jess is helped out the car, dragged inside. Douglas stands to the side as Bailey puts in a pin on the keypad, pushing open then door, walking in and Green carries Jess in by the waist, lifting her feet off the ground, Douglas following behind and closing the door.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQgdISCgoI

Seems bitch work is now below him. She sees a kitchen off to the side and someone else is present. "Hey. You guys want Coffee?" And they come out into the open. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GMQEIxIm2
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5OwnGXXXU
"Brianna?" She says out loud, but then realizes it isn't her. This woman is much older and sighs. "You gotta be kidding, come on! No, that's my daughter. I'm her mother not that she calls me that. The state took her into care when she was little and I never really got her back. She hates me. Now, who wants Coffee?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk7DVU8qFe
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUArhthOMRD
"All of us, Bon Bon. We'll be in the other room." Bailey says, gesturing for Green with her to follow, Douglas trailing after them. They enter a room off to the side down a corridor, it's a small bedroom with only a double bed and a built in wardrobe 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv51ti0uRTF
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7lQjrzxsy
She sees on the bed, ropes already attached to the headboard and base. "No! No, no!" She yells, struggling and Green only takes her closer, Bailey assisting. They throw her against the mattress, tying up her arms and then her feet and one across her waist for good measure. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt659J7mIjS
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Eq2gqxJGs
"Douglas! Douglas!" She yells, but he turns away and ignores her, walking out. Bailey and Green get off her and walk out as well, switching off the light and it all goes dark, hearing the door click, someone locking it. She's trapped in this room in the dark as it's boarded up, and tied to the bed for the next few hours. She can yell and scream as much as she wants, but they all ignore her, no one coming in. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0JfEgmeCI
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflEbO7hyd8
She nods in and out of sleep, unaware how long it's been and barely registering someone unlocking the door and coming in, closing it behind them. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTm8dJnMBC
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh30M43qGCG
"Jesse, Jess, wake up." They call, applying pressure to her shoulder, giving it a little shake. She opens her eyes and they take a seat beside her on the bed. "Here's how it's going to be. You're going to pull your act together and start really doing what I want or I am going to make your life a living hell and you can expect this room to be the last thing you see. You've got the weekend to make your choice, no one will be looking for you.

"No, I'm a Surgeon actually. But give or take that, my daughter still chose a similar proffesion. She's doing it because she wants to show she's a good person and better at helping people compared to me."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteCo5pR3ti

"What's your name?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CmA5hfp7t

"Maeve. It used to be Bonnie, why Bailey here called me Bon Bon when you first walked in."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfc7UzIscz
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrM21bhuq6e
"We can drop the last names charade now, I think Jesse. We're the ones in charge here, Douglas hired us for a reason." Bailey speaks up. "And I'm Johnthan. Behind me, Bobby. The cop you ran into used to be his fiance actually."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAL3D2Pd8V
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbM4SI3agcv
"She's a detective, and don't call me, Jesse! It's Jess."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmU15zozoW
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxmyouNLAl
"Whatever." Bobby snaps.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhac2lIMVd
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIchND2VDwa
"You hungry, Jess?" Maeve asks. She shakes her head no. "Who are you guys?" She asks.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOgDXuFfqF
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHasTD3hn3
"We belonged to a former human trafficking ring. It was dismantled, but there is still a few of us so I suggest you don't push us. I'm in charge now. Douglas has given permission for us to hurt you if needed. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2avmWMBSB
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu8rCt0Y7E
We still take contracts on from people like him." Johnthan tells her.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynlPsWUsmb
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LXL4DyIFq
She doesn't know what to say, this is serious. She sinks into the bed, wanting this hell to be over. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jtum9w2YZ
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWASMEJB4yy
"Seems like you're learning your lesson as we speak." He adds on, leaving and gestures the others to follow. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dx3uhUrzY
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd7J4zkqQd
Hours pass and she lays in the dark, awake unable to fall back to sleep and her limbs are aching from being tied in the same position for hours on end when she hears her door open, someone coming in. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoNLl3jcFh
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡterhBabySL
It's Bobby and he closes the door behind him, taking a seat beside her on the bed, inching closer.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczW5Drsdxe
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStEZmScW2p
"You awake, Jesse?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPP6TBJlAg
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QPr5AIcVE
She ignores him and he peers over, looking at her face. "Yeah, you're awake. You hungry now?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoryUaicn7M
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HSdrNvAQy
She shakes her head no, not giving him any of her voice. He doesn't deserve it. "Uh, okay then. Well, don't starve yourself too long or Johnthan will have Maeve insert a feeding tube. Bringing you here was to make you obey Douglas, you dying isn't the plan here really...138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKGD4FVg0M

So, uh, what do you think of Clara? She used to be my girlfriend, I was going to marry her... but uh, my life has really gone to shit since then. That was a long time ago now. Everyone around me ended up having kids and they are all grown up now, most of them are your colleagues suprisingly.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYt0QtvileI

"Not all of them are apart of us anymore. We either went to jail, a mental hospital, deported and jailed I heard and then they either got out and lived normal lives, got married, had kids, worked legal jobs... or they ended up like me. Alone, and went back to a life of crime. This is the only life I know, I was in university before, but got kicked out and no one would employee me."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSO44gyNx0

"A human trafficking company, we we're called Ring. I still have my ring actually." And he shows it off, a snake biting it's tail in a circle around his finger.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmBBJ8SewO
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8inatkRnxm
"Very symbolic..."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVWUnTjUeL
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUg0sT2bDfJ
"Thank you." He smiles. "Uh, so my ex, Clara. Do you like her?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN7yABPj9o
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhju6E6RBv
"Not really, I don't want to see her again. Somehow I have a feeling she isn't going to leave me alone. They're onto me now the police.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18zvxHcXTM
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ7T8k9aMS
A few weeks back... the Hospital called me after my discharge. Said my blood results indicated I had Merge in my system, they had to expand the testing range as it they weren't looking for it at first as it's a black market drug.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Kmyu8r3vH
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRmbTsvPwv
It's an offense to carry here, but not if it's in your system. It still gets reported to the police though, but there was nothing they could do. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOphn64aH0
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigsYrkmzne
They already know who I am and some stuff about me and when I was running from you all, and Clara hit me minorly, she inspected my neck. I was unconsciousness for a minute. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdACdYSNPAU
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexUY2dXgb6
People who shoot up, do it in their arms, not their neck. She would have reported that and later discovered my drug report from the hospital. When she came to check up on me supposedly work, I think she already knew about the Merge."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqU4o1MiCii
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHqACJwwt4
"Okay. Well, try and her dismiss her as much as you can, okay? She'll come back, she is a very determined person. She never took no for an answer. She used to be a police officer before, we lived in Canada.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqADhNwd20B
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGDlEFPlU9
I'm suprised she's a detective now, I didn't know. But hey, as long as she's happy I guess..."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6qaqNgDb1
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM4sAnLwtM
She nods slowly. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMHQbjOk91

138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6deSCMckET
"Ask me what?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJOXBedMQ1
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK6EMGgmlr

138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbMqtUzbHK
"You want me to be your girlfriend is that it?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5MCxusefA

"So you want sex, Mr Drunk."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnH9Cmv8uLH
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPRcDlexBf
"No-" And he slaps his hand to his face, embarassed.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLMD2AnsK1
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIzNkEEyQ3
"I'm not stupid, Bobby. I had an ex-boyfriend before moving here. Douglas knows my base story. My ex was my fiance to and his sex drive was high. If you want to have sex with me, just come out and say it. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS242ajPwyN
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz5gEkDU99
But I won't be your girlfriend. Not at this point."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVISZpXn8d
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptDviUFDRl
His quiet and looks at her. "Bobby?" She says, calling his name. He crawls ontop of her slowly, feeling his hand trailing up her stomach towards under shirt and his other hand creeps down to just below her pants, resting right underneath where it lays.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Gb30WUdMU
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqAqCOfUYG
She squirms, pushing her legs together trying to push his hand away and his lips touch hers, tongue inserted, feeling his hand on her chest give a good squeeze and then a good rub. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIBLSrfPOB
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui3hfGT080
His fingers rubbing just on the outside below to stimulate. "Mmm! Stmp!" She tries, but can't say anything with his tongue in her mouth. He pulls her pants down, shoving three fingers in. She bites his tongue and lips, him screaming in pain and jumps back. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCccALnWdQm
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKP0gqB6nu
"Johnthan! Maeve!" She yells him, quickly covering her mouth with his hand. "Stop! No!" He says. She squirms, not able to say anything. Bobby stays quiet, listening and no one comes. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KmRjyCrzW
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFXDbxNd1t
He looks relieved and picks himself up and helps her dress, keeping a hand on her mouth. "You say anything to them, I will make you wish you hadn't. I know where you live, I know who you friends are and I can easily acess Johnthan's supply of drugs." and he removes his hand, leaving the room quickly.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YST69eWyb
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76wovpr1fG
For days after that, she doesn't see or hear anyone really. Maeve visits briefly, able to persuade Jess to take a few bites of food, but that's it till the door opens and Douglas walks in. It must be Monday...138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDVSs2s874
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk1NpRF5nb
"Morning, Jess. Works tomorrow for you. You made up your mind? Are you going to start getting me what I want? You we're great at the start, but then went fairly aloof."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvzhjbbJi4
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xWFtDs0ef
"Douglas, I have psychosis." She tells him quickly. He looks caught off guard quickly and sinks to her level, confused.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFWs5922X6
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H7PpeE6Cf
"When I was gone for a while, I was stuck in the psych ward because of your Maggie. I had my first break at work and-"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEoQ5DlrF6
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg52Zlz8T3N
He doesn't let her finish, him quickily pulling on the rope restraining her and it all comes loose. "Shit, I'm so sorry." He says putting his head in his hands. She sits up a little. "Jess, if I had known- You shoulda told me the truth. Damn it. No wonder the Psychatrist is hanging around the centre, it all makes sense now"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiLJbS3dpp
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXApGgVeehK
"Anna?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpMzKj3Uut
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIAQ4bJW7v
"Yes. She was Maggie's dorm room mate back in University. They hated eachother at first. My ex was never good at dealing with people, and I did isolate her from others... when we we're married... no wonder she called Anna. She isn't coping at running the centre alone. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuFKIfmOAn
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCqR96FdwL
Jess, if you ever get sick or something again, just tell me. You we're sick, not deliberatly avoiding me. I'm sorry I scared you last time we met and I gave you Merge, that would have made your problems worse and now your knee is injured because of me. Did you recieve a formal diagnosis or anything?"138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UnVHa2oyV
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2EszudiO5
"Not yet."138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvhHcyZxMG
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLIzwwsrjx
"Okay, listen, I know Anna. You need to comply. She will send you back to hospital if you have more symptoms and don't engage in treatment, and I would have to find someone else at your workplace. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoCN36GeOu
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmP1592e5Ar
Can you see Anna for me? Just play along, send me what can you about the center and I'll never give you Merge again if we can help it." And his holding his hand out for her to shake it. She slowly does, "Thank you." He tells her, pushing her to lie down. 138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94YTXVffG7
138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHNRvt6EpB
She goes stiff. "I'm not going to tie you up again. Just get some rest, work is tomorrow." And he tucks the blanket around her. "They told me you said they we're allowed to hurt me." She speaks up. "Bailey? I- Yes, I did say that. If you we're difficult, they could. But nowhere noticeable, I'm sorry." Then he leaves, taking the rope with him. She does hear the door lock, guess it was almost too good to be true.138Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYpkjuzSQu
