If Only She Knew - Season 1 - Episode 31

She woke up tied on the chair with a headache.

“You awake!” she exclaimed puffing up smoke. “You have been sleeping for about three hours. I
must have b@nged you really hard on the head.”

She sat on the chair afraid and tears streaming down on her cheeks. Afraid to look her in the eye,
she looked aside.

“Look me in the eye, dammit!” she shouted slapping her hard on the cheek. “I am sorry my
princess. I didn’t mean to hurt you. Mummy, loves you. She loves you,” she wiped her tears and
kissed her on the cheek. “We are going to be happy, you and I. All we need is your passport,” she
stood up. “I need your passport, yes, yes.”

“I am thirsty,” she muttered under her breath.

“Thirsty? Let me pour some water for you,” she took the wine.

“That’s not water, it’s wine.”
“Yes, you are right. Water, water,” she kept looking around the room. “There is no water here. Let

she dropped the water glass on the floor.
“Untie me please. It hurts,” she begged.
Emily burst out laughing.

“So you can run away from me? You and I are leaving the country tomorrow morning. I am going
to buy the suitcase. If I put you in the suitcase, you will be safe,” she said and walked out of the shack.

She came back after five minutes.

“I am sorry, my princess. Let me untie you,” she said. She untied her. “Don’t try to run away or I
will kill you. I am going out now, I will lock the door. If you behave well I won’t put you in the
suitcase.”

She walked out and locked.

reported missing.

‘CHILD MISSING’- It sounds like something you would hear on the news or see in a TV movie. But that headline became his reality last spring when endured the longest four hours of his life waiting,
hoping and praying for his 10 year old daughter, Chloe’s return. He had seen played up kidnappers on TV a late night home invasion, followed by a ransom note and a frantic family
gathered around their coffee table with FBI officers and high teck equipment. They were afraid to
involve the police since it could led to a much longer negotiation and less willingness to co
