Cutting the hole bigger she managed to squeeze out of the trunk, noticing that they were on the edge of a cliff. How did they get there? Cherie was scared for her life, as the car rocked back and forth she managed to get the little girl out of the trunk.

“Follow my lead” Cherie told her

With tears rolling down her cheeks the little girl followed.

There was no time to be scared Cherie knew that the car would fall any minute, Leaping off the trunk Cherie and the little girl was able to touch ground..

Watching as the car fell of the edge of the cliff, Cherie counted her blessing.

Now where was she?

“Do you know where we are?” Cherie asked the girl.

Slowly nodding her head the little girl said “No”.

“Do you know how you got here?”

“Yes”, said the little girl.” I was at a restaurant with my mother and father and I had to go to the bathroom. As I was entering the bathroom a woman grabbed me and said if I did not be quit she was going to kill me.”

“Was there anyone else with the lady?”, Cherie continued.

“Yes, when she brought me to the car there were two other men and you were sleep in the back seat.

Cherie continued to question the little girl, trying to get as much information out of her that she could. They must have given her something to keep her sleep all that time.

Looking around she noticed that she was in an abandon parking lot by a river. Not far off she saw a gas station, grabbing the little girls hand she ran toward the gas station.

When she got to the gas station, she asked the cashier what town they were in, “You are in Holland Michigan”, the cashier said shocked at the smell and look of the two girls that had come his in the store.

“You mean we never left Michigan”, Cherie said out loud.

“Is there anything that I can do for you?”, The cashier asked.

“Yes, can I use your phone?”

Grabbing the phone Cherie quickly dialed her parent’s number.

No answer, she tried again still no answer.

“Ma am would you like me to call the police?”.

“Yes” Cherie said handing the cashier back the phone.

“We will be in the ladies room”.

Using paper towel Cherie washed the little girl up the best way she could.

“There”, she said, what is your name.

“Cherie” the little girl replied.

“What did you say?

“Cherie Thompson”, she heard the girl say.

Right then and there Cherie fainted.

Waken by a voice Cherie came to, looking around she noticed that she was still in the back seat with Rodney.

“Cherie are you ok?”, You have been knocked out for ten hours. She heard Rodney say,We are in Atlanta now.

Was that all a dream?, she asked herself, was her mind playing tricks on her?. She had been so scared that Rodney and his parents were kidnappers that it had affected her in dream.

“How far to Atlanta, she said sitting up.

“We are almost to your house”, Rodney said “Are you ok?”

“Yeah I guess, I had this awful dream”. .

“What that me and my parents kidnapped you Rodney said teasing

“How did you know”

“I am a psychic” He teased

Cherie was unsure what to believe, was it a dream or had she really been kidnapped?

Happy that she had made it home safely she promised herself that she would never take a road trip that far with strangers again, no matter how cute a guy might be. Her life was definitely more important.
