Hi there. My name is Sheila. And today for my story animated. I'm going to tell you the confusing story of how I got abducted by a billionaire. It all started one day when I was coming out of school as usual. I saw my classmates with their expensive backpacks, getting inside their fancy cars. Many of them even had a chauffeur as I walked past them on my way, to the bus stop. I could always hear their last as they gossip behind my back and 13 years old and never had any family other than my mom and she passed away. Three years ago. We never had money, but my mom taught me.
At the only thing, no one would ever take away from me was knowledge. So I studied hard all my life, and that's how I got a scholarship to this fancy school. I was walking to the bus stop. It was restaurant on that street, and I always smelled the coffee and the cookies, my stomach rumbles. It made me so hungry, but I didn't have money to buy any of that. As I continued walking. I saw a little kid and crossing the street cars passed just inches away from it. It kitten crossed to the other side and I decided to follow it to make sure it was safe. I followed it for a couple of blocks until it turned into. To an alley and hid inside a trash bin. Well, I thought at least it would be safe there. So, I turned around to leave and that's when I saw a black car parked at the end of The Alley. There was a man outside leaning against the car dressed as a chauffeur and inside on the backseat. I saw a man and a woman kissing. I learned to mind my own business a long time ago. So I kept on walking. I arrived at the bus stop and after a moment, the car appeared at full speed at stop abruptly inches away from me. I realized it was the same cars before just seconds before I heard a door opening and someone pushing.
Side onto the back seat as the car. Sped up again and looked at the man sitting next to me. It was actually a handsome older man around 40. I guess he looked at me seriously, but his gaze looked tired and lost. It didn't make me scared. He was somewhat mysterious and then he asked sharply. What do you want? And that brought me back to reality? I don't understand. They said it was true. What do you want in exchange for keeping the secret? He asked what secret I asked. He got closer to me and stand me from Head to Toes Hi-C He said I know this little game he added and then he looked at the driver and shouted Perkins to them all I didn't want to ask any more questions, but that didn't mean I didn't have them. Who was this man. Who did? He think I was with secret? Was he talking about suddenly the car stopped and the chauffeur opened the door and pulled me out. The hand of the handsome man appeared from inside the car with a credit card. In it, get her whatever she wants. He said the chauffeur grabbed the card and took me inside the mall by the arm, and as I stepped, in my mind went blank I had.
Forgetting side, a place. This big lights, shops people coming and going play. Where's this had to be having today? Had to be dead, but the chauffeur still pushing me. So I pulled my arm away and told him to stop. He looked at me and said, well, well what I asked, what do you want? He asked, I don't understand, I said it was true again, and he said it's not the first time we do this. The boss knows what you all girls want for the silence. The boss, the silence who were these people? I had no idea and things were happening really fast. Fast. But I wasn't stupid and I wasn't going to let my only chance get away. I didn't want to spend a second. So I went directly to the bookstore. I always had to borrow the books from school from the public library. So this was my chance to get my own the man stayed and he went back outside the handsome, man from the car. Rolled down the window and said, are we good? I nodded even though I had no idea what just happened is, I embraced the bag with my new books and he left. As I was walking back to the bus stop. I didn't think about the bizarre situation. I just lived for the fact that for the first time in my life. I had new books and
I heard it again. The car was coming back towards me. You have got to be kidding me. The chauffeur pulled me back inside the car and the boss asked annoyed. Is this a joke? You spent $200 on books. $200. I asked, I didn't know. They were so expensive. I'm sorry. I said and offered the books back to him, but he just stood there and looked at me then. He looked at the driver and back at me. Take us back to the mall Perkins. He shouted. Then he got really close to me and said, okay, this is how it's going to be. We're going to go inside the mall again, and you're going to spend real money. Me on real things. You hear me. I couldn't understand why he meant it as a threat, but I nodded in silence. At least. I got to keep my new books as we arrived back at the mall. We got out of the car. He took the books away from me through them inside the car and said, leave them. You'll get them later. We went back inside the mall. And again, I was amazed by the amount of information in different noises. He took me directly to the jewelry store and said pick. He sounded like he was in a hurry, but I was definitely not going to choose anything from that store. I looked at those expensive things as they were glowing, but did not dare to touch him.
What is it? The man said. Impatiently I sighed and answered. I live in a foster home and share my room with seven other orphans. There's no chance. Any of this will survive there. The man took a step back and scanned me again. I don't understand. He said, I assumed, he was referring to the school. Uniform, How could an orphan pay for that fancy School? My mom said that knowledge was something, no one would ever take away from me. So she told me to study as hard as I could. I have a scholarship. I said, wise woman, he said and then added still, there must be something he want. Well, honestly, I'm a bit hungry and I've never seen this many options before. I said, as we entered the A food court. What do you want to eat? He asked, I didn't have any idea what to choose. I knew nothing about this food. So I just said, I will eat whatever you choose. A tiny smile appeared on his face. It was imperceptible. He walked to a specific place inside here. I had trouble reading the sign. She'll warm up. I said best in town. He added. I smiled as I saw him eating that strange food. He didn't look at all like that angry man from before and he was right. The food was amazing. After we finished, we continue to walk through the mall. I was stunned with all that merchandise.
The different stores, we passed in front of a place that had neon lights everywhere and music sounded loud. There were mostly kids inside. They all looked like they were having fun with this. I asked you've never seen a video game so long before he replied. I denied in silence still dazzled with all that. How do you play this? I asked. He looked around and hesitated then he said, I don't know. We got inside. He bought some special points to put in the machines and gave him to me. I walked to the first game. I saw it was a shooting game. I put the coins in a machine and lifted the gun. He looked at me in silence, but a few moments later, as he saw how much I suck at the game. He almost ripped the gun out of my hand and said, no, no, no, you're missing everything. He then started to shoot at everything with an ability. That was not human. I stood there watching him play. It was so much fun. This was in fact, a very strange man after a while the screen showed the words. Congratulations. You won and he gave the gun back to me. That's how it's done. He said I looked at the screen and said look to players. He has attained it again, but then agreed we started playing the game together.
You lost track of time. You're getting really good at this. He said after we want a hard fight against the opponent. We even high five, he continued to buy coins and we were there for a couple of hours when we left the mall. It was already dark. Well I said, thank you for this day. I have to go but he got instantly serious weight. He said I'll take you home. I got in the car and hugged my books. Again. He looked at me and said your mother really was wise woman when I got out of the car and he left. I thought I had dreamt it all What A Strange Day? No one would believe me. If I I told them I couldn't sleep much that night. So I used the time to study for the upcoming test the next day, with my new books as we were doing the exam. I saw that, my classmate Tanya was having problems with it. She was writing things into racing them many times. We were close to the end of the period. So I got closer to her and let her copy for my exam when we got out. She came to me and thanked me. We walk together to the cafeteria talking. But when we arrived Andrea, the popular girl in my class stood in front of us and looked at Tanya with disapproving eyes. I looked to the floor ashamed in some
Scared of Andrea. Are you coming to the party tonight? Andrea? Ask Tanya? I don't know. She replied. Are you coming? Sheila? I looked up puzzled. No one ever. Invited me to those fancy parties. And as I looked at the Andrea, I could tell she was not happy with the idea. Sorry. I have to study. I said and Andrea said, see she's not interested in hanging with us. She's a smart girl, but Tanya said she is smart and she saved my life today. I think I'll study tonight to Andrea's jaw dropped. She was clearly indicated. She took my new books away from me and said, oh, Oh right, smart Sheila and her new books. I wonder where you got the money to buy them Andrea. Stop it. Tanya said she took the books from her and gave them back to me. Why are you being such a jerk? She added? I was amazed at how Tanya stood up for me. I was such a chicken. I could never stand up for myself. But Andrea took it even further. She grabbed my shirt and whipped its pocket. I was in so much trouble now. I didn't have the money to buy a new shirt. I rushed to the bathroom to cry. Tiny got inside after me and told me, not to pay attention to her. She said that Andrea was miserable and that

They hate it when other people saw me cry, he realized. Anyway and asked me what was wrong. Damn it. I tried to cover my face, but he got out of the car and grabbed me by my shoulders. He looked at my ripped shirt, what happened? He said, nothing. I slipped. I lied. I've heard that one before. He said and added you want to shoot some people. I looked at him and smiled. Absolutely. I said we went to the mall and who man bought a lot of coins. We went back to the shooting game and played for hours. I hadn't noticed how good it was to release stress. I was having fun. The first time in my life and I didn't even know the man's name. We became so skilled at that game that we even started to have an audience, everyone cheered and clapped as we passed levels, and got the top record, and then we went to eat Shawarma. I laughed. As I told him, I felt tired like it had been me running through the minefields and not the game characters. He smiled for a second but then said, are you going to tell me what happened today? Now? I sighed, as I remembered Andrea. She was a horrible person. There's a girl in my class who makes my life a living. Hell. I said why he asked, but I looked at him.
Irony and said, you really have to ask because I'm poor of course. And what did you do? He asked, but I replied, there's nothing I can do. I can lose my scholarship if I get in trouble, but to my surprise, he said that's the dust live. Heard this year. I'm not lying. I replied. But he looked at me intensely. And said, if you don't stand up for yourself, no one will. When I was young. I was a smallest in my class and I was vulnerable and shy. Everyone made fun of me. And it only ended when I started defending myself. Trust me on this, you have to stand up for yourself, or you will get walk. All over. I stood silent. I couldn't imagine this powerful man is a shy kid. I nodded, and then he took me back home. I was still a bit scared as I saw Andrea and school the next day, but when she started to make fun of me at the cafeteria in front of everyone, I thought about the man's advice. I stood up and went straight to her table to confront her. She got up and told me to go away, but instead I took her orange juice and dumped it on her head. She started to scream and try to grab my hair but I dodged her and grabbed her as instead. I pushed her head to the table and told her to stop messing with me. Then I let her go.
He stood up looked at me, but said nothing, she turned around and rushed out of the cafeteria, all the kids there started to clap their hands. I felt relieved but it didn't last long a teacher got inside the cafeteria and sent me to the principal's office. I was in so much trouble, but Against All Odds, I felt good, the man was right, this had to end and I was ready to face the consequences as I got to the principal's office. Andrea was already there waiting to drenched in orange juice. The principal called us both inside his office and demanded an explanation. But before any of us, Could speak. I heard noises outside the office and when the door opened I saw the last person I could have imagined there. It was the handsome rich man. Andrea looked up to and sighed as she saw him. They exchanged glances through a moment and I realized at that precise moment. He was Andrea's father. Mr. Anderson. Please come in the principal said, but when he looked at me, he found I denied him silence. He looked at Andrea and then back at me and I swear, I saw him trying to hide a smile, the principal explained the situation and he told Andre has father that if he wanted to
Take me out of school. She could certainly do it. There's no need to do that. He answered, but the spoiled Andrea complained. Shut up. Andrea, her father said and added. You probably had it coming. Get out of here. Tell Perkins to drive you home. Angie. I was about to say something, but he looked at her menacing. She gave me one of her killing looks and then left. Then he told the principal that it was okay, that I was probably under a lot of stress, but I didn't like this at all. I was so angry at him. He was a hypocrite. He was Andrea's father. I stood up and said, I don't need you to defend me. I'm a stand up for myself. Remember the man? Stood silent surprised. I looked at the principal and said I'm sorry for what I did. I take full responsibility. Andrea had been bothering me for years, and I got fed up, but I understand this wasn't the best way to react do with me. Whatever you think is, right, excuse me, and I left, I went to my locker and grabbed my new books. If I was going to be kicked out of school. At least I would take them with me. I walked to the bus, stop crying. I didn't want to see the man, but I kind of hoped he would appear, but he didn't. I let three buses pass, but he never showed up. I
To see him. I demanded an explanation. But when the fourth bus, came I got in and went home, feeling like the loneliest person in the world. I didn't get much sleep that night. And when I woke up the next morning, I felt terribly sick. Perhaps it was me being a chicken again. I didn't want to go back to school ever again. The director of the foster home called the school and told them I was sick. I stayed home for the next three days. Wondering, if I had dropped everything after all Andrea's father seemed like two completely different men. He was so kind with me and so mean to his own daughter. I couldn't understand on the Third day, they told me I had a visitor when I got up to see who it was. I found mr. Anderson at the door. I was still mad at him. I was relieved to see him. I have to admit, we went to the garden and sat on a bench. He told me, he was sorry for not coming to see me sooner. He wanted to make some arrangements first. What Arrangements, I asked and he said adoption Arrangements. What, I looked at him in silence. I was stunned. He said you don't need the scholarship anymore. If you agree, of course, I thought for a moment. I don't want to be Andrea sister. I said well, perhaps, I was being overdramatic, I know but he laughed. I said, don't laugh. I'm still mad at you. You can't solve everything with money. He got It instantly serious. Instead. I know I had a talk with Andrea last night. I didn't realize what a terrible father, I've been until I met. You, you reminded me of what? Having a good time means. And I felt guilty that I wasn't sharing that with her. You taught me what it means to be a father and I want to continue doing it with both of you. Wow, the man gave really good speeches. I smiled. I don't even know your full name. I said and he answered and I don't know yours, but we have the rest of our lives to get to know each other.
