Must Read: CONTROLLED [Completed] - Season 2 - Episode 24

I sighed in sudden relief, then jumped when I
felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to see
Emily kneeling next to me, smiling triumphantly.

“Thank you, Emily,” I said, hugging her.
“No problem,” she told he, returning the hug.

“My name’s Sophie,” I told her. I wasn’t sure
why I told her, but I wanted her to know.
“Okay, well we need to get you out of here,
Sophie. Hopefully he-”
She was cut off when the kitchen door swung
open again, followed by heavy footsteps. We
both gasped silently, and I held her wrist tightly.
“Sophie, I know you’re in here. Come out now!”
Ricky screamed. Emily went to stand up, but I
held her down, shaking my head frantically.
“I’ll be fine,” she whispered. I watched as she
stood up and walked around the shelves for the
cans.

“B---h, you lied to me. Where is she?” I heard
Ricky yell at Emily.

“Sir, I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Now please get out of the kitchen before I call
the police,” Emily said bravely.
Ricky sighed in frustration, then hit the table. I
heard Emily gasp and saw her back up. She
motioned for me to move away quickly.
Hopefully Ricky didn’t see it, or it was all over.

He would kill Emily for sure.

I scooted away quietly, moving behind a silver
table. I got a clear view of Ricky and Emily from
where I was, but they wouldn’t be able to see
me. I watched in horror as Ricky reached into
his pocket and pull out a knife. Emily took a
step back, her face suddenly full of fear.
“Tell me where she is!” Ricky screamed.
“I don’t know, sir! I told you I saw her run out
the back door! She was crying! When I tried to
ask her what was wrong she pushed me
against the wall and ran out the door!” Emily
yelled back, trying to defend herself.

“You’re a liar!”
“I promise sir! Please, put the knife away! I’m
going to call the police!”

I watched in horror as Ricky moved forward
with the knife, trying to stab Emily. She moved
away quickly with a gasp, then grabbed one of
the cans off of the shelf and hurled it at him. It
his Ricky with a thud, but didn’t seem to stop
him. Emily ran to the side and around the
shelves, heading for the door.
But Ricky was faster.

He grabbed her by the hair and pulled her back.

She cried out in pain and fell backwards, hitting
one of the silver tables. I gasped, putting my
hand to my mouth, as Ricky plunged the knife
into her stomach. Blood came trickling out of
her mouth, her eyes wide and full of fear. Ricky
pulled the knife out, letting her drop to the floor,

then wiped off the knife.

I felt the tears well up in my eyes. I blinked,
wishing I could get the images out of my head.
I remembered that I still had the operator on the
phone. Putting the phone back to my ear, I
spoke quietly.

“Hello?” I whispered, still watching Ricky. Emily
was on the floor, eyes closed. A pool of blood
began to surround her body. I could see her
chest just faintly rising and falling. She was still
alive.
“Yes ma’am. I’m here,” the man said.
“He’s taking me to Blanca Peak, in an isolated
cabin up in the mountains. If I’m not at the
diner then-”

I cried out when I was pulled up by my hair.
Opening my eyes, I saw Ricky’s angry face
staring into mine.
“Please help me!” I screamed into the phone.

Ricky knocked it out of my hand, sending it
flying onto a stove. It broke in two as it hit the
hard, silver surface. Ricky let go of my hair,
making me drop to the tile.
“I trusted you, Sophie! Why would you do this to
me?” he yelled.
“Because I don’t want this!” I yelled, staring at
the floor.

“But you need me, Sophie!”
“I don’t want you! I’ve never wanted you!”
I felt a sharp pain pierce my neck, then a liquid
being injected into my body. I suddenly felt
dizzy, then sleepy.
“What… what…” I mumbled, beginning to lose
consciousness.
“I’m sorry, Sophie. But I have to do this,” he
said, removing whatever he had in my neck. I
fell to the floor, then felt him pick me up. I
looked up to see his face, blurry and distorted.
He carried me out of the kitchen and away from
the dining room, out the back door. I was
immediately shivering, and almost regretted
leaving his jacket in the corner of the bathroom.
I heard the sirens of the police cars in the
distance. Ricky walked faster, making it to the
SUV and placing me in the back seat. I was still
conscious, but my body felt numb, and almost
paralyzed. I couldn’t speak or move. Ricky shut
the door and turned on the car, then drove out
of the parking lot.

The last thing I remember was Ricky speeding
down the highway, and other cars honking at
him. Then I finally fell into a deep, unconscious
state.
