They were looking for a young woman to greet customers at a nightclub, and the money they promised was much better than anything else she could find.
At first, everything seemed normal.
Then they took copies of her documents.
Soon, they started talking about money she supposedly “owed” them and told her she couldn’t simply walk away anymore.
I felt my stomach tighten.
“How did you know my address?” I asked.
Emma was silent for a long moment.
Then she pulled out her phone.
“A woman gave it to me. She said if I ever got really scared, I should come only to you.”
She showed me a photograph of the woman.
I recognized her immediately.
And at that exact moment, my phone rang.
Unknown number.
I didn’t answer.
A few seconds later, a message appeared.
“Give us the girl, and everything ends peacefully.”
Emma saw it too.
Before either of us could say anything, footsteps sounded outside again.
But this time, there was more than one person out there…

PART 2
Emma and I stood frozen, staring at the door.
I could hear at least two voices outside.
Emma grabbed my hand.
“They found me.”
I was scared too.
But in that moment, I could think of only one thing.
When I was nineteen, I had also been alone.
I had also found myself in a situation where it felt like I had no choice.
And back then, no one had opened a door for me.
I decided Emma would not go through the same thing.
That night, I didn’t let a single client inside.
