The Box Became My Safe Haven
written by Poe
21-year-old Anita is home alone, when a man she barely knows bursts in, ties her up, and abducts her. The attacker imprisons her in his home, keeping her locked up in a cage hours on end. Over the next eight days, Anita clings to life, hoping that someone will find her before it is too late. This is not mine, I found a podcast "I Survived" and I thought I would make a book on some of the podcasts they made.

Chapter 4
I was aloud to sit in the front but my hands and legs were bound. He just started driving, he drove the country roads and didn't take any of the interstates. I kept trying to think of escape plans or what to do. They drove for ten hours. I remember being so nervous I had to pee all the time and just hoped he would stop at a gas station or something or just let me pee on the side of the road. And when we went through a toll booth he made me sit really close to him, he threatened he would kill me if I screamed for help at the toll booth people. My feet were bound at all times so when we slowed down to the toll booth I couldn't get out and run. They finally arrived in La Crosse Wisconsin to a house he said he was going to turn into a bookstore. He took Anita to an apartment above where the shack would be. There was a metal wardrobe on the ground when we walked in. He told me that was going to be my bed and he cut the straps and let me get in it and he started locking it. For that moment I was like i'm safe, i'm away from him, from that point on the box became my safe haven.
