Sofia stood there surprised and not knowing what to say to Sarah.
"Have you lost your mind!" Sofia finally spoke up.
"What?" Sarah asked.
"He did all that to you and all you can think of is how we would make a great match?" Sofia said angrily.
"Well..." Sarah tried to say something but Sofia interrupts her saying that she should find a different job. It mustn't be that one.
"I know we are orphans but it doesn't mean we should be desperate." Sofia said.
"Well that is not my concern anymore. I have gotten my revenge already." Sarah said.
"Oh no what did you do?" Sofia asked in fear.
"I spiked his drink and replaced his keys with some rusted old ones." Sarah said laughing out loud.
"Are you are crazy? What if he tracks you down to our home?" Sofia asked in great fear.
"He won't. Nobody there knows me apart from my friend Rosa who I went with." Sarah replied.
Sofia then checks her watch.
"Oh no. Look at the time. I'm late for work." Sofia says worriedly and rushes to her bag.
"Won't you eat something first?" Asked Sarah.
"No time for food. I got to go, bye." Sofia said.
"Bye." Sarah replied.
Just some few minutes after Sofia had left, Sarah went out for a walk. She sat on a bench in a park and seemed to be lost in her phone.
Sofia works as a waitress in a very small restaurant and Sarah doesn't really have a job. She just goes to clubs at night and collects money from men that seemed to admire her.
Sarah doesn't sleep with them but she allows them to touch her body. I guess its a job for her since it gets her money.
"What are you doing with pictures of me?" A male voice jerked Sarah back into reality."
She turned around to see who it was. She reacts quite shocked to see the guy whose pictures she has been staring at.
"Why do you have pictures of me in your phone? Huh?" Red yelled at her.
"I...I..." Sarah stammered.
"You what? Come with me." Red said and pulled her to a hidden corner between two buildings.
"Are you working with the police!?" Red asked Sarah.
"N...n...no. I just..." Sarah stammered again.
Sarah isn't sure of how to start explaining herself.
"She doesn't look like she is working with the police, but why are there pictures of me in her phone?" Red thought to himself.
"Give me the phone!" Red said and snatched it from her.
It is just pics of him laughing and having fun at the club. Nothing incriminating.
"Wait a minute... Does she have a crush on me?" He thought to himself but Sarah couldn't see he is surprised by something.
"Please let me go." She finally spoke up.
Red covered her nose with a hankie and she falls into his arms unconscious.
Red took her to his house.
When Sarah woke up she is surprised to find herself in an unfamiliar place. She saw Red sitting in front of her at the other end of the table, and that too all dressed up.
"How do you like my place?" Red asked with a smirk.
Sarah was confused at what was happening. She looked at the table and saw two glasses of red wine and a glass vase which had a red rose in it at the middle of the table.
The house is just a normal one. but the table is looking so expensive.
"Whats going on? And why am I tied to a chair?" Sarah asked.
Red gave her a smile which made her to blush unwillingly.
"We are on our first date." Red said to her and her eyes widened as if about to pop out of its sockets.
"What?" She asked.
"I know you like me" Red replied.
"I don't" Sarah said shyly.
"You do. why else would you have pictures of me in your phone?" Red said.
"You are too ugly for me I only kept the pictures so I can have something to laugh about." she said.
Red isn't ugly at all. You can tell by the way Sarah keeps blushing. He was called red because of his red hair. He has a great body structure and a killer smile.
Red laughs at Sarah's statement.
"Why are you laughing?" She asked him quite surprised.
"You said that with your cheeks all red" he replied.
Sarah didn't know what to do or say.
"You are so so beautiful Sarah." Red said.
"I may be ugly but not blind to your beauty." Red said.
Sarah couldn't help but continue blushing.
"Will you be my girlfriend?" He finally asked.
"What?" She asked surprised.
On hearing those words Sarah's mouth fell open.
"I'll take that as a yes then." Red said.
"Wait... Who said yes? Is this how you will ask me? Tying me to the chair as if you will kill me if I say no?" Sarah said, in a tone that is almost like that of a child.
"I'll untie you only if you say yes to me", Red tells her and smiles.
"How can I say no if he keeps looking at me like that?" Sarah thought to herself.
"Ok I'll marry you." Sarah said, not really noticing the use of the of the word "marry".
Red burst out in laughter, it was then she realized her mistake.
"I asked for a girlfriend and not a wife," he said, smiling.
"I mean I will be your girlfriend." She rushed to correct herself.
Red was a killer, and a very dangerous one, but he seemed like he is a nice person.
However, Sarah never knew him to be a killer but a gangster, she never associated killing with gangs.
Red untied Sarah and said, "so I guess this is our first date?"
Meanwhile, at Sofia's workplace...
"You rang for me sir?" Sofia asked her boss as she entered the office.
