HER ADVERSITY: Chapter 51 – 60
By Obianke Prosper
Chapter Fifty Eight
GRACE POV
“No! Where are you taking me to?”.I winced as he pulled my hair and at same time, pushing me forward.
I staggered and dropped on the floor, landing on my knee.
“Ahh!”.I held onto my bruised knee as tears stung my eyes. I felt so tired, I just wanna rest.
“Come on, bch!”.He pulled me up and without caring about the terrible pains I felt in my knee, he pushed me forward again and I groaned, dropping on the floor.
“No, please let me be. Am tired, please!”.I pleaded but that seem to annoy him cause without warning, he slapped me again for the third time today.
That hurts you know, when being slapped for the first time in your life by a total stranger. It hurts so much.
I held my cheek crying profusely. My cheeks were all swollen, red and bruised. Little drops of blood were running out from the bruises. The pain I felt was like he.ll.
“I don’t have the time to listen to your noise and you should be happy you’re still alive. Oh sht, you irritate me!”.He pulled me up and held my hand pushing me forward slightly.
My legs felt like jelly and my body felt like wool, I fell at the slightest push but fortunately for me, we got outside.
A car, a peacock van was parked outside and he pushed me to it. He opened the door and pushed me to the seat.
I sat and sighed in relief for the little amount of rest I would be receiving.
He, himself sat on the driver seat and pulled the key into its ignition but the car made some rough noises, refusing to start.
He tried again but the same thing kept happening.
“Dmn!”. He cur$ed angrily and went out of the driver seat, shutting its door.
He went to the front of the car and opened the car bonnet, he remained there for some time checking all he needs to check and finally he shut the bonnet, cur$ing loudly.
“Sht! Dmmit! How can this goddmn fuel get exhausted when I need it? Oh sht!”. He spat out and walked away to buy some fuel probably.
Thoughts ran in and out of my mind, an escape plan. This was my time, he will be back soon but at least I got some time.
I touched my knee, it still hurts so much and am sure I can barely walk but I have to, I need to save my life.
I don’t know where that ba$tard would take me to, to get the worst torture of my life probably but I wouldn’t allow that. I have to escape now, immediately.
Besides, my family must be dying to see me. Oh, they must be feeling so worried and I have to return home.
Taking a deep breath, I pulled the car door handle but the door refused to open.
Oh no, that devil didn’t lock the doors, right? Gosh! He isn’t so dumb after all but how am I going to escape now? Who would come to my aid? Who is going to save me?
He came back minutes later and he opened the car bonnet. He was filling the fuel into the fuel tank when suddenly a car roughly drove to the building, parking hastily.
Two boys looking so unfamiliar ran towards his direction and the man turned, running back into the building.
My breath caught up on my throat, not understanding what was happening.
The only thing in my mind was that the two boys were his enemies and he was running away from them, it reminded me of a movie I watched years ago. War Circle.
A knock on the car window snapped me out of my thoughts and I flinched, glancing at the window. Someone wearing black clothes was there and I recognized him instantly. Dylan.
“Dylan?”.I sounded so surprised, confused and happy.
Surprised on how he found me, confused on why he was here but happy that someone would save me.
He turned the door handle from outside but the door wouldn’t open, so he brought out a gun and shot it.
My eyes widened at that. A gun? It didn’t make any sound though, it was a silencer.
“Let’s go”.He stretched out his arm to me and I gulped hard, accepting the arm.
My fingers brushed against his palm and the feeling I felt was extreme, it was unexplainable.
Though I had many questions to ask him, one of which was why he had a gun but I wanted to get out of this place first. I was weak.
He took me to his car and from nearby I saw the tattooed jerk kneeling with his hands rise in the air while two boys pointed and hit him with a gun at intervals.
“Pete, Caleb, watch him! Steve will bring a car, take him to the torture house”.Dylan’s voice was so strict and cold, it made me shiver.
But wait… Torture house? Where is this house anyways?
I sat on the front seat while he sat on the driver seat, beside me. His eyes ran on my cheeks and I watched his eyebrows furrow.
“Are you fine?”.Surprisedly his voice was calm and full of concern.
I was speechless so I just nodded and closed my eyes trying to relax, to feel at peace.
My whole body hurts especially my face and knees. My eyes were beginning to hurt due to the slaps and I pray it wouldn’t get swollen or produce a bump.

All through the ride my mind was occupied. When I try not to think, things passes my mind and I find myself thinking about them and that was how it went until the car halted at an unfamiliar house.
He unlocked the car doors and I went out of the car, bending slightly due to the pain I felt in my knees.
“Do you need help?”.
I wondered why he was acting all caring but Geez, I needed help seriously.
“Yes”.
He walked to me and placed my arms around his neck. Trust me, I almost died when he did that.
He supported me in walking into the small house and when we got to the living room, he took me to a bedroom.
Due to easy observations, I noticed that the house has just a small living room, a small dining room, a small kitchen and one bedroom. It was quite a small flat.
The room he took me to was cozy. It contains a bed, a wardrobe and also a table. It also has a bathroom and oh, I loved the house. It was beautiful and small, just perfect.
“Take a bath, I will bring some clothes”.
I nodded and he went out to give me some privacy. Yeah privacy, I needed that cause seeing him close to me makes me shy and uncomfortable.
I took off my damp clothes as slowly as I could. I felt pains all over me and I wouldn’t mind taking some naps.
I stepped out of the clothes and went to the bathroom. I turned on the shower since they wasn’t any bathtub but I didn’t spend long in the bathroom. The water was hitting my bruises which made the pains unbearable.
I wrapped a towel around me cause I wouldn’t want a situation whereby I would step out of the bathroom unclad only to see Dylan in the room staring at me.
Oh that would be very embarrassing so I have to be careful.
Just as he promised, I saw some clothes on the bed. It was a shirt and shorts, his clothes probably cause they scented like him.
I wore the clothes but I wasn’t comfortable. I wasn’t wearing a bra, the girls would understand.
I sighed and stared down at my chest. Gosh! I wouldn’t like Dylan to see me like this. What should I do? Oh what should I do?
Scoffing frustratedly, I let it be and went to the living room. Dylan was there watching TV, a romantic movie.
I sat on a couch and that was when he noticed me but his eyes ran down and down until they stop at my chest.
Geez! This is so embarrassing…. I coughed awkwardly and avoided his gaze.
I turned to the movie and then he left the room but he came back with a cup of water.
“Are you thirsty?”.He asked and that was when I felt the dryness in my throat. I nodded and stretched my hand to take the water but accidentally some liquid dropped on me, on my chest.
Dylan’s eyes glanced there and I blushed, my cheeks going tomato. It hurts but I couldn’t stop blushing.
“Am sorry”.I apologized for no reason at all and tried to walk away but like the devil planned it, the water slipped me and my lips hit Dylan.
He held me by my waist while my eyes widened cause we were actually kssing. He was stealing my first kss!
I wanted to pull away but stopped when he reciprocated.

Only God knows I didn’t want to to do l this but I was lost in the planet of passion. In the moon of lu$t.
I ruffled his hair, digging my fingers into his scalps. I could feel my body hot for him. I wanted him. I wanted to feel him.
“Grace, you should never get touched by any boy until you are married”.
It was one of my dad’s rules but now I was breaking all the rules, not giving a dmn about them.
“No!”.My voice came out low, too low. I was panting as I pulled away from him, breaking the kss. Breaking our body contact.
“We shouldn’t be doing this. This is wrong, this isn’t right”.I was ashamed of myself, I felt disgusted with the thought that I was giving my body to someone, someone that isn’t my boyfriend, not my husband either. No relationship at all!
“I know I sound stupid right now but am sorry and I… I have to go”.I said, avoiding eye contact with him and without waiting for his reply, without seeing his reaction, I turned around and walked away.
