dying inside...

"Tess Longoria by the court you've been seen guilty of the murder of your husband Marshall Longoria"

The large black gavel hit the circle sound block now knowing the verdict has been chosen.

"I didn't kill my husband!" I protested, and I stood up fast The police walked over with cuffs as my lawyer walked away

" Ma'am please don't resist you don't want your sentence longer"

I have thought to myself for which seem to be forever a cop still waiting there with the handcuffs I didn't know what to do I didn't kill my husband we were happy I would never hurt him I loved him...

7 years ago

*Tess Longoria grew up poor a mom and dad who were drunks and abused her she had several jobs for the age of 16 to pay the bills.*

Tess was working as a bartender at rare ramble a group of men in black clothing they say down at a circle booth table with a big light.

I walked over to the table and said "hi what can I get you guys tonight" one of the men seemed to look me up and down I felt uncomfortable, but I couldn't lose this job.

"I'll take a whole bottle of your best wine" the man in the middle looked over at me staring straight into my eyes

"Ok anything else" I looked away from his eyes going back to my note pad.

The man to the left spoke up " ya I'll take a shot of scotch and uhh sweetie I don't see you on the menu"

I was pissed I didn't look up form my notes wrote scotch down and walked away

"Hey dick you scared her off"

"shut up mark"

"yes sir"

I walked over with the drinks 4 shot glasses and a big bottle of fancy wine "if you need anything else just call me over "

"Oh we will" he eyed over my body more

I walked away back to the bar About 2 hours later the man who was in the middle was tall and hot he leaned over the counter there were maybe 3 other people in there not counting the 2 other people he came in with, and he reached into his pocket

"Don't say a word, and you won't get hurt go outside the front door and wait my men just walked outside and if you try anything they'll kill you"

I felt my stomach drop as I was getting kidnapped or robbed or killed I breathed heavy and walked out the front door as the man grabbed my arm and cuffed them behind my back then threw me in a car.

"We have her drive"

I was breathing fast I felt like I was being suffocated I was drowning in my own fear I looked around the car nervously trying to find something I could do, but I couldn't There were men in all the surrounding seats my hands were cuffed and I felt like I was going to cry. The air felt suffocating like I couldn't even move I was shaking in fear

"Why....me" I said shapely trying to get out my breaths without sounding too scared

"Marshall boss can I tell her"

"I'll tell her.....Tess. Your parents owe money, and they can't pay we need something and look here you are"

"bu-...but" I felt every time I had vanished slowly.....

"You're going to pay back every penny with that doll body of yours and let me make this clear if you ever try to leave or escape I'll kill you, or I'll punish you in the worst way, so I'll make you wish you were dead"

I just started crying I didn't know what to do I didn't want this I didn't want to be the one to take the blame for my parents always I shouldn't be the one taking the balls for them any more I just want to get out... I finally got out through a crying squeaky voice" I... I'm sorry for...for whatever I did"

Marshall brushed his hand over my cheap brushing my tears away "sweetie this wasn't You. you seem like a nice person, but we need something in return for the two million dollars your parents stole from me"

I felt ever ounces to have just disappeared I felt myself vanish away my eyes closed I woke several hours later chained up to a bed.
