464 We Found Tammy!
Owen kept Tammy in his house in his hometown, a village south of the city. Every day, he asked his relatives to bring food to her.
He told his neighbors and relatives that Tammy was his friend's daughter, who was mentally ill and suffered from severe persecution delusions. His relatives were simple-minded and didn't suspect anything.
When he got home, his neighbor had just delivered lunch to Tammy through the window. She greeted him and said, "You're here to see the girl, right, Owen? | think she is very ill. Every time I see her, she tells me she's been kidnapped. You should get her to a hospital in town.”
Owen smiled as he wiped the sweat from his brow, "Thank you. I'm bringing her back to town right now. Her father had just found her a hospital.”
"That's great!”
Owen took out his keys and opened the door after the woman was gone.
Inside the house, Tammy heard their conversation. She took a rolling pin from the kitchen and hid behind the closed door. As soon as she saw him coming inside the house, she hit Owen hard with the rolling pin.
Owen was taken aback and immediately pleaded, "Stop! I'm here to help you get out!”
Tammy wasn't persuaded. She took advantage of the opportunity to open the door and escape after beating him several times. And she didn't expect the neighbors to stop her when they heard the noises. They 463 We Found Tammy! believed she was severely mentally ill and refused to let her go.
Tammy was crying because she was so desperate. She grabbed a
woman's arm and begged, "This evil man has brought me here! | was kidnapped! Please call the police. My father will come here and save me!"
The woman looked at Tammy sympathetically, and she clearly thought she was insane. She then took Tammy's hand and led her into the room. She said to Tammy gently, "Owen will get you to the hospital. My dear, you should stay here. No one will hurt you here.”
At that moment, Tammy realized what it meant to be desperate. She wanted to say so many things, but she couldn't. She just stood still when more people tried to drag her to Owen's house.
Owen, who had just risen from the ground, appeared enraged. But all he could do was touch the wound in his head and say to Tammy softly, "I'll take you back to Birmingham in a minute and send you home.”
Still, Tammy found his tone harsh and evil. She was completely unconvinced because she didn’t believe the people who had kidnapped her here would release her. In the blink of an eye, she kicked him in the crotch before he could react.
Instantly, Owen nearly collapsed again in pain. He couldn't hold back his rage and raised his hand, trying to hit Tammy. But before he could, he was startled by a frightening voice: the siren of a police car.
"What is going on? Why are there so many police cars here?" Someone asked.
Owen's face turned pale as he looked around at the agitated crowd. He looked around before running out of the building and up the stairwell. And Owen had jumped off the balcony with his eyes closed before anyone
realized what was happening. He let out a horrifying scream as he fell on 463 We Found Tammy! the ground.
As everyone was attracted by Owen’s scream, Tammy broke free from the crowd and dashed to the stairwell, only to find Owen driving away.
"Tammy!" She heard Wayne's voice while she was at a loss for words. Then she turned around and saw a tall man standing in the middle of the first-floor stairs. Because it wasn't well-lit there, she couldn't see him clearly. Tammy's tears, on the other hand, made it difficult for her to see the man.
Tammy was taken aback. She had been mentally tense for about ten days and had only dared to relax slightly at that point.
"Daddy!"
She dashed over to Wayne. And she had never felt as safe and happy as she did at that moment.
Wayne then took her back home. On the way home, Tammy fell sound asleep. She mumbled something, and Wayne realized she hadn't slept or eaten in several days.
