It's 9.00pm as I took my time resting in the guest room. Suddenly someone is knocking the door breaking my 'me time' moments. Immediately I get out of the bed to open the door. "Hi, do you mind if I get in?" I saw that girl standing infront of the room with a first aid kit in her hand. Does she saw my bruises. I thought. It made me feel embarassed since I don't want to cause her anymore trouble. She already help me a lot and I can't keep relaying on her. But then as much as I want to reject her, I couldn't. I must be insane that I started to feel crave over her affection. Soon I let her in.
She then take a sit on the bed while tapping an empty space next to her. "Come. Sit here" her voice sounds so soft as she speak. And her smile just relaxing my uneasy emotion. I didn't have guts to stop her that I just follow her instruction. Seconds later she started to take a liquid medicine and a small cotton in the box. I keep on looking at her that is currently dropping a little bit of the liquid to the cotton. A moment later she look at me with a calm expression. "May I?" she asked as her eyes going back and forth from my eyes to my arms. I was actually hypnotized by her presence that I keep following her words. Gently she hold my arm and placed it on her lap. She started to wipe my bruises and cuts in a very soft possible way. This affection, I really enjoyed it. It heal me.
I didn't realised I was actually staring at her face. She's so beautiful inside and out. It touches my heart so quickly. I don't know what's happening to me but I started to get blunt to her. "you don't want to ask me where I get this?" I asked softly. She put a smile on her face before she answered my question. "Honestly I'm not gonna deny, I'm curious. But I think. Its better if you let me know when you're ready". She has this gentle stares which made me feel weak.
"I was almost being rape today. My step father force me to have sex with his friend. He loves money and gambling so he tried to turn me into a prostitute". She look stunned upon hearing my confession. "He's stupid! you didn't deserve this kind of treatment, cause you're too precious" her statement causing me to get emotional that I started to cry. For the first time, there's someone defending me. Her statement made me special. How I wish she came into my life sooner. A moment later she embrace my body. Her hands gently stroking my back comforting my emotion. "I'm sorry this happened to you, I promised as long as you're here. You're safe" she continued. Indeed her embracement made me feel safe.
Few moments later she pulled away. She begin to wipe the tears on my face with her thumb finger. She started to introduce herself after that. "Anyway just call me Lisa". She smile softly to me. I felt shy by her stares that I felt like my cheeks burning. All of sudden I felt giddy. "My name is jennie" I replied to her. "Jennie. Beautiful name. It fit you so well" she complimented. I couldn't look at her for too long that my eyes started to look on the ground. My heart was beating like crazy. "Well. Its getting Late, I'll see you tomorrow alright'" she continued as she started to stand up. I wish she could stay here longer. Soon she walk to the front door and turned her head to look at me. "Good night jennie. Sleep tight" she smile as she spoke one last time. I couldn't control myself that I begin to flaunt a bright smile to her. "Good night" I replied.
Soon she left, I was all smiling.
