Staring at the coffee cup in front of me with a slightly confused gaze, my fingers tapped on the tabletop, and my thoughts flew in a trance, as if I had returned to ten years ago, that unbearable era, those dusty memories, and that painful years.

Under the girl's expectant gaze, I slowly put down the mustard, was silent for a moment, and told the story about me......

It was the spring of 1991, and at the age of 10, I was on vacation to Hawaii with my mother.

My father is the chairman of the Sailing Shipping Company, I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth since I was a child, my family is rich and powerful, and I am an only son, so I naturally became the object of the stars and the moon.

On that day, an ocean-going freighter owned by the company was preparing to go to sea, passing through more than a dozen countries in the middle, and the last stop was to dock in the United States.

My mom and I flew out early and waited for my father in Hawaii, and it was this vacation that changed my whole life, and I fell from heaven to hell, and from then on I was in the dark, tortured, and embarked on a bloody road of no return.

After dinner that day, my mother and I had just returned to our hotel room when there was a knock at the door.

Mom was stunned for a moment because we don't have familiar friends here, who will come to us at this time, Mom is still very vigilant, so she glanced out in the door mirror.

Suddenly, her face changed, and she quickly turned around and ran to me, and said with a nervous face: "You come with me, don't make a noise!" ”

I had no idea what was going on, but my mother dragged me into the bedroom and stuffed me into the cupboard, as if I didn't feel safe, and she found some more clothes to cover me.

Because of my young age and small body, a few clothes covered me tightly, and I called out to my mother a little scared, but she glared at me sternly, and whispered in an unquestioning tone: "No matter what you hear, don't make a sound." ”

Looking at my mother's nervous eyes, I was a little scared, nodded vigorously, and honestly lay down in the cabinet.

At this moment, there was a sudden muffled sound at the door, and then the door was opened from the outside, and the mother hurriedly closed the cabinet door and rushed out of the room, followed by a scream, and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and then there was no movement.

I didn't know what was going on, I was scared to death, my body trembled involuntarily, tears rolled in my eyes, I bit my lip and forced myself not to make a sound.

I heard people walking back and forth in the room, but I couldn't hear anything else, no one spoke, not even my mother.

Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming this way, getting closer and closer, and finally stopped in front of the cabinet, my heart was in my throat, my heart was pounding violently, my breathing was getting shorter and shorter, and despite my efforts to control it, I was still nervous and scared.

With a creak, the door opened, and I curled up motionless with my hands on my shoulders, my eyes closed, my lip biting hard.

A moment later, the footsteps walked to the side, my nervous teeth chattered, and I felt relieved as I listened to the footsteps and walked away, and my whole body collapsed.

I thought it was all over and had just relaxed a little, when suddenly a big hand like a tong-like hand suddenly reached into the closet, grabbed the back of my neck, and pulled me out of the closet like a chicken.

"Ahh I screamed in fright and burst into tears.

"Woooooo I heard a whining sound outside the house, and people struggling violently.

I was carried to the living room, only to see my mother's hair tied up and still on the sofa, her mouth sealed with duct tape, and when she saw me caught, she struggled like crazy and whimpered.

"Mom!" I cried and struggled, and I didn't know where I got the courage, so I grabbed and bit the man, and spat at him twice, but he ignored me completely, and his hand seemed to be rooted, and no matter how I struggled, he couldn't move.

"Woo!" My mother struggled to crawl towards me with tears on her face, and another gangster in the room walked up to my mother, raised his hand and punched her in the back of the head, she rolled her eyes and stopped moving.

Then the man took one look at the guy who was holding me and nodded at him, and all I felt was a tightness in my neck, and my vision suddenly became blurry, and then I lost consciousness.

When I woke up, it was dark, the air smelled moldy, and the feeling of coldness and dampness spread throughout my body.

I rubbed my aching neck, struggled to sit up, raised my hand and rubbed my eyes before I could see what was around me.

It looked like a gloomy basement, I was locked in an iron cage, and the cold ground exuded chills.

I shuddered, and shrank back with my hands on my shoulders, as if I had touched something, and when I turned my head, it was my mother, and she was lying behind me, the rope had been untied, and her loose hair covered the side of her face, lying there motionless.

My heart suddenly tightened, and an indescribable fear instantly spread throughout my body, Mom...... Is it dead?

"Mom!" I suddenly screamed and threw myself on top of her, crying and shaking her shoulders so hard, I didn't know how scared I was for a ten-year-old child who didn't know what else to do but cry.

"Uh-huh......" Mom's arm suddenly moved, and a soft grunt came out of her mouth.

"Mom!" I screamed in surprise, wiped away my tears, and used all my strength to lift her up and let her lean against the iron cage behind her.

"Son, you ...... Are you okay! Mom opened her eyes with difficulty, raised her hand and touched my head, tried to squeeze out a smile, and asked weakly.

"Mom, I'...... I'm scared! "When I saw my mother come to life, I found my heart and threw myself into her arms, releasing all my fears.

"Don't be afraid, with Mom here, it won't be long before Dad comes to save us!" She hugged me tightly and whispered comfort.

"Where's Daddy, and when is he coming?"

Thinking of my father, I suddenly felt a little relieved, although my father was very busy since I was a child, no matter what happened to me, he was always the first to help me, and this time would not be an exception.

"Come on, he must be on his way here." Mom's voice seemed to have a magical effect, and I gradually calmed down and stopped crying.

I suddenly heard a metal crash in front of ...... "Click", like the sound of chains clinking together, and I looked up from my mother's arms to look in the direction from which the sound came.

I saw that the big iron door in the basement was slowly pushed open, and three foreigners slowly walked in from the outside, the front one was wearing a suit and a stubble on his face, but he showed a harmless smile from humans and animals.

The last two are scary-looking, I swear I have never seen such a burly guy, nearly one meter nine tall, muscles all over the body, arms as thick as my mother's waist, wearing elastic vests, revealing large tattoos, full of viciousness, scars, as terrible as monsters.

They all had guns in their hands and glittering daggers in their waists, and when they came in, two big men with spears stood on the left and right sides of the gate, and only the one in a suit came towards us.

"Mom!" I let out a low cry and drilled into my mother's arms a little frightened.

"It's okay, don't be afraid!" She touched my back, whispered a word of comfort, and then looked up at the man, her gaze suddenly calm.
