"Get away from my woman!" He yelled and people around us moved away and I was just left baffled by what happened.
The volume of the song died down a bit.
"Leave me alone you scumbag, weren't you flirting with other girls why can't I do the same!" I heard the girl who was dancing with me yell and my mouth widened and people started murmuring.
Yeah I think I don't want to get in this situation.

I think the system agreed with me ,it was time for me to leave, before I got into a fight ,when I practically did nothing wrong.
"I have nothing to do with this." I muttered underneath my breath and proceeded to leave the nightclub.
"Hey!" I heard someone call from behind me and I turned and saw a girl.
"Yes,can I help you?" I answered with a raised eyebrow.
I was sure I hadn't seen her before, she batted her eyelashes.
"My number." She smiled as she stretched out her hand holding a small piece of paper.
I took it and she winked at me and smacked her lips together.
"Give me a call, I hope we can hang out in the future." She smiled and winked at me as I watched her away, her hips ,as she cat walked back into the club and I was just standing there, looking at the piece of paper in my hand wondering what just happened.

I didn't want to go back to that house and stay alone, so I decided to stay in a hotel room.
That would be the first time in many years ,I decided not to go home, but rest in a hotel room ,because I was tired.
It was also a good chance to check if the money sent to my bank account was real or if someone was playing a cruel trick on me.
I took a cab to the closest hotel I could find and headed inside and went to the receptionist.
"I want to book a room for the night." I told her and gave her my card.
The transaction went through and my eyes widened and I had to snap out of my thoughts as I collected back my bank card.
I was shown to my room.
When I was in my room,I was admiring the room, when I heard knocking on my door.
I know I didn't order room service, however I rushed to the door, opened it and saw a frail girl with dropped shoulders, a black eye and her dress was ripped by the side of her stomach, I could see her skin.
I was confused holding onto the door and I wondered what she was doing here.
"Please help me, someone is trying to harm me." She cried out with tears at the corner of her eyes as her lips quivered.
I could sense she was scared.
But I wondered what I should do, was this a plot to frame me?
I heard people shouting and asking where she was. I drew her into the room and closed the door.
Even if someone was trying to grand me, I won't feel good about leaving her out there

So I wasn't wrong,she was in danger.
I took her inside and she sat down on the bed, but I could see she was settled down as she was glancing around the room trying to be sure if she was safe.
I wanted to reassure her ,I won't harm her,when I heard someone knocking on the door again.
I didn't order room service,so it must be the people after her.
I wanted to check who was at the door, when she grabbed onto my hand ,I turned to look at her and shook her head with fearful eyes.
"Please don't go." She pleaded.

I sighed, as I gently touched her hand and smiled."I was just going to look through the peephole and see who it was, don't worry." I reassured her, but she shook her head."But..." She tried to say."Don't worry , I am not going to leave, I just want to check who's at the door." I told her, but I don't think my words of reassurance convinced her."No ,don't go, they will find me here, I am scared." She cried out."I promise they won't, I just want to check." I reassured her again, as the knocking on the door continued and I gently put her hand away and told her to hide herself, so they wouldn't see her, if I opened the door and she did that as she got on the bed and covered herself with the blanket.I knew that if it was actually those people that kidnapped her that was knocking at the door, they won't leave so easily, if they don't check if she was actually inside the room, and they might keep an eye on my room, in case if I want to take her out ,so it's best I go and answer the doo

The girl was looking at me with hopeful eyes, as if I had a solution to her problem. I was trying to manage my own life and she's asking me what to do. I rolled my eyes. "Why are you looking at me, are you hoping for an answer to your question? Are you not one that came into my room , how should I know what to do?" I asked her and her eyes widened for a brief second, before a chuckle escaped from her lips and shook her head. She is still laughing in this situation. I guess she has calmed down ,now she knows she's safe. "You should be careful about the people you meet online, not everybody out there is sane." I advised her and she sighed and nodded in understanding and stopped laughing. We met great and good people on the internet, but we also would meet bad people there, so one should always be careful. "I know ,you don't even need to tell me that twice ,I won't be going on any date anytime soon, nor will I agree to meet someone for a date online again." She replied and made a

Her eyes softened ,when she saw the confused expression on my face."Sorry for scaring you, I didn't mean to say that,it's just that if someone mistakenly leaks this to the media, It won't end well and my brother, you will probably never let me out of the house again." She revealed it to me and I was still confused.Is she some type of celebrity or is she from a rich family,is that why she doesn't want to call the police?I just decided to not think too much about this, I have had enough for one day."Fine, but we can't leave today ,it's late, so let's wait till tomorrow morning and we will know what to do." I informed her."That's fine by me." She replied and her shoulders dropped a bit.I could tell she was tired.Today must have been hectic for her."I want to rest,can you give me back my phone, I am not going to call anyone." I told her.She didn't want to do as I asked at first, however I asked again and she reluctantly gave me back the phone and I took off my shoes and laid o

I nodded in understanding."Fine ,if you say so." I replied.We ate at the hotel and I just got tasty. I went to grab a bottle of water from the fridge and when I returned she was on the phone with someone.It seemed to be important and she was talking like a child getting scolded and trying to explain it wasn't her fault she got abducted.Her voice was small and weak, not as cheerful as it was before and it made me wonder if she was talking to her brother.She noticed me.The call ended."I found the phone number of my friend on her social media page ,she will send me my brother's phone number." She informed me and I nodded.The phone chirped and she smiled."There it is." She said,She called her brother and after reassuring him she was alright, I heard yelling. She just kept quiet as she just pouted, till he was done scolding her. She asked for my home address and I told her , she typed it and sent it to him after the call ended."He's coming." She informed me and gave me back my

When those words left her mouth fearing that they might want to kidnap her again, I rushed to the door.I stopped when I saw who was at the door."Mike, what are you doing here this early?" I asked as I furrowed my brows in confusion.I thought he should be at work.Why is he here?"Who is this?" He asked, gesturing to the girl."Forgot about that for now , I will explain later, come inside ,so she can lock the door." Mike hurriedly came into the apartment and she locked the door.I just realized now that I didn't even ask for her name, I will remember to do that later.Mike walked into the apartment and was in between me and the girl, he looked at me then at the girl and came over to where I was standing and hung his hand on my shoulder and pulled me closer as he whispered into my ear."Who is she? I didn't know you were wild, she's young, you shouldn't bring girls back home." He whispered and I removed his hand from my shoulder and gently pushed him away.Seriously, why can't he just

"Where is my money?" The muscular guy with a mustache and bald head asked me.He was holding me on my collar, as he pushed me inside my apartment and the other guy nonchalantly walked in and slammed the door shut.One would think they came to kill me ,as if my neighbors would even care ,if I died today.I grabbed his hands and pried his hands off my collar and straightened out my clothes.I glared at him."I told you never to come to my apartment to confront me." I reminded him of our agreement,he failed to keep it and the bald guy burst out laughing ,as his friend behind him just scoffed."He's even making requests, when he is owing us." He sneered at me."You must be insane, I can kill you now and leave here and no one can do anything about it." He threatened with clenched fists and I sighed.I don't know why I even thought making a loan from loan sharks was safe.I have had quite an eventful week ,so I haven't been answering their calls. That's why they showed up in my apartment.

No matter how badly a woman treated me, I guess I was still too nice.I rushed to her side and I asked if she was all right and she turned to me and blinked her tears away."I am fine." She mumbled.I held her by the hand, as I helped her stand up and then I bent down to pick up the stuff on the floor and out back into her handbag.There was a fashion design book on the floor along with her things and she drew different clothes with the models wearing it.I think she is a tailor and an artist because her drawings are so detailed and beautiful.I helped to pick everything up and put everything in her handbag."Are you alright?" I asked her after helping her put everything in her handbag.She dusted off invincible dust for my dress."Thank you very much for your help." Her soft and gentle voice replied and I raised an eyebrow.She has a baby face, round and squishy.She is so calm and collected, so I wonder what she could have possibly done that made that man treat her this way.She tuc

I watched as she was really excited and thanked me non-stop for my help.I told her that I trusted her work, we exchange phone numbers then I told her I wanted to be co- owner to her business, to which she accepted immediately, I think she was so happy that someone actually wanted to invest in her work, that she wasn't thinking of anything else and just agreeing to everything I say.I decided to invest $300,000. With that money, I was sure she could rent a shop and at least buy some materials she can use to sew some clothes. We should start small first then we can go upwards from there.Since I worked at a law firm for many years ,I still had the contacts of some lawyers that worked outside the law firm I was fired from.I asked if she had a lawyer ,so that she could call him and we drafted a contract."It's your money so I think you should bring a lawyer, I don't mind being a co-owner." That was her reply.I don't know why she was not able to call her lawyer to come down here ,but
