The next few days were fun . I played with my brothers and hung out with Alysso . He is really funny and is probably my favorite male adult in the house . He's the only one mature enough to switch from being funny and kind to serious if needed . The rest of them are little boys .
I walk down to the kitchen to find Gallo there making something .
"Hey Gall"
He turns around with a smile on his face
"Hey monkey ." He says in a playful tone
"Whatcha making " I say leaning forward trying to see but he slides over blocking me .
"What is it !" I say
"Nothing you should be concerned about now go ok . "He says flapping his hands around .
"Come on Gall just a peek . I can keep secrets or I can help you ." I reply happily
"No Eddy you are too young to even look at this for one and two it is none of your business. Now please leave I will not have you in here while I am doing my stuff ok ? "He looks at me with a hopefulness that J was going to let this pass . 
I huff but form a plan to find out .
I 'walk out of the kitchen ' and wait until he believes I am gone then he'll move out of the way so I can see .
I put in a pouty face and walk out of the kitchen looking sad and moppie. Just before I could turn around to wait in the kitchen I bump into something .
Legs .
I look up to see a familiar face .
Alysso and Weren .
I giggle and jump into them .My arms both latched onto one of their legs .
"Hey Monkey what's up ?" Ask Werner a smile creasing his cheeks and making his eyes slim but defined the joy .
I reply ," We'll Gall  is hiding something in the kitchen and won't let me see . And he's really Arguvating."
"Oh no that boy is very , Aggravating but can you give him a second for me and him to talk about this . " I nod and he walks into the kitchen . It was like a zillion minutes till Alysso came out and Gall walked out after confusion written clearly out on his face .
"Gall what are you hiding from our little sister ?" Ask Weren
Gall whispers something into their ears looking almost ashamed .
I saw a spark of rage in Weren and Alysso but the covered it up with a warm smile .
"Princess do you want to know what he was hiding ?" Ask Alysso
I smile and nod my head up and down .
"This  fu-family brother of ours  was hiding his snacks from you . " I huff and make grabby hands till someone wants to pick me up .Alysso picks me up and walks me to my room and sets me on my bed.
Why do my family keep secrets from me . They don't seem to keep secrets from each other . I just wish they would tell me. I mean if they tell me I might be able to tell them .. Tell them how I feel . Even the thought of going back to that bad place scares me . They told me that they would hurt my family and now I have double to protect . My big family . My 9 brothers and mom and Alysso . Plus grandmama and grandpapi . My cousins and my uncles . I love them all with my whole hart . Even if I know that they don't really love me back . That they were right that I unloveable . That I am owned by them .
I snap out of my thoughts by Alysso shaking my shoulders .
"Hey princess are you ok ? " worry laced through his words .
I nod my head "I was just thinking ." I say
"About what ?"
"Stuff" I say trying to end the conversation
"What stuff ."
"Mostly about why you guys are keeping secrets from me ." I reply
"We aren't keeping things from you ."
"Yes you are what was that little gesture in the kitchen ? No no not secretive at all ."
"Amore , there are things we will tell you when you get older but right now you aren't olde enough to hear these things " (amore-love )
I nod in understanding
I know that they are older and know a lot more than I do but still .
"So when ? When will you tell me ?" I ask impatiently
"When your older than you are now ."
I nod "okay ".
He smiles at me and gives me a big bear hug .
I giggle and he chuckles into my neck his prickly chin tickling me .
He lets go and sighs .
"Im gonna go eat something kiddo ."
"Otay " I say , my k not coming out as I want it to .
He chuckles "I am going to make a pb and j sandwich if you want any ." He say winking
Alysso leaves and I walk over to my desk and grab my coloring stuff I walk over to the window and start to draw .
Of course I am not the best but I am not the worst at it . After a while mommy comes in and gets me dressed in a cute white flowered dress [first picture at the top with hair ] . Mommy picks me up . She is wearing a white dress that stairs at her thigh and hugs her legs . Her hair is down and curled . She's like an Angel .
"You look so pretty Baby"
"Thank you mommy you look beutifol "
She smiles and kisses my cheek making me smile .
"I love you bunches baby girl ."
"I lobe you "
We start walking down the stairs .
Everyone is already sitting except me and mommy we walk to the table but before I can sit someone picks me up and sits me in their lap . I look at them and see Gall . I smile at him which makes him smile .
"Your not mad at me are you monkey ?"
I shake my head"no way"
He sighs and relaxes making me lean back with him . I giggle and poke his dimpled cheek . And with that he laughs . I look around the table and see all eyes on us . Bits of jealousy in everyone's eyes . I smile at them and blush when they smile back .
I see the kitchen door open and workers bring food in . I look around then feel myself being lifted up and being put in someone else's lap . I look to see Enzo he smiles big and grabs a plate for me .
Yummy spaghetti and meatballs. I dig in and slurp my spaghetti getting it in the corners of my mouth . Enzo chuckles behind me and turns my face so he can dab the sides of my mouth .
"Tank you " I say
He smiles .
"Your welcome "
I smile and go back to eating .
I get up and go to the restroom . When I come back someone picks me up AGAIN and puts me I. Their lap . I turn and see Gill .
I smile and hug him sideways . His chest vibrates . As he talks and my ear is pushed up against his shoulder .
I trace his hand . He looks down at me with eyes I can't yet describe . I peck him on the check . They had taken away our dinner plates and were preparing dessert.
I pat my tummy and think of what desert will be .
" Whatcha thinking about "ask Dom
"Food " I say bluntly making everyone to chuckle .
"We just had food aren't you full ?" Dom ask completely confused
"I am full I am just thinking of desert . You know the food that's coming out in a bit ." I say sarcastically .
"Yeah yeah what ever ." Dom replied embarrassed
"It's ok Dom ." I get up and pat him on the cheek before sitting in the empty chair next to him .
He smiled , then listened into the conversation between Alysso , Silas and Em about the most recent basketball game.
The door to the kitchen opened up again and out came some waiters with a plate of chocolate cheese cake with drizzled fudge and crumbled Oreo cookies with a dot of whipped cream with a sliced strawberry.
My eyes boggled are the sight . My mouth almost had drool coming out of it . All of how full I was went away and now all I could think about was eating the treat .
The servants placed the plates down . I looked at the girl who place down mine . She had big lips and long bleached hair that's dangled in a high ponytail down to her hips . Her face was orange and her eyelashes looked heavy . She smiled down at me . Her too white teeth were pointy .
"Thank you " I said before she left .
"Your welcome sweetheart would you like milk with that ?" She asked in a high pitched tone .
"Yes please "
She walked away and I bit into the cake . It's creamy texture and delicious flavor made me want to groan in pleasure .
The lady came back with a tall glass of milk . She leaned forward to lay it down but it somehow tipped on me .
Everyone in the room was watching .
"Oh My God I am so so so sorry let me clean you up ." She says she grabbed my hand and basically pulled me along the hall way to a closet .
"Um miss I don't -"
"Oh shut up you brat . "
I look at this mean lady Stunned
"W-what?"
I say almost as a question
"Great ! Listen little brat stop trying to steal all the attention and don't you see how hard it is for me to find you if your m oving spots all the time . GURR I can't believe I have to be in the same building you . "
She tightened her hand on my wrist making me whimper.
"Stop please ." I say pain laced through my words
"Are we begging so soon . I heard from a little bird that you usually last longer ?"
"Just please stop ."
Tears were brimming my eyes . The lady grips on tighter . And red goo starts coming out .
"You are just weak and unwanted little girl . Nobody loves you . Period . Now we're gonna go out there and your gonna smile at me like I am the most amazing person in the world okay . " her shinny teeth smile as I nod my head .
She brings me out and back into the room holding my unharmed hand . My other is behind my back .
I smile with my lips ,secretly shaking .
I sit down and eat with my unharmed hand . The cake no longer tasting good in my tummy .
Everyone is almost done so I stop eating .
"I'm gonna go outside ." I say as an announcement
My mommy nods with a smile everyone else looking at me . I walk outside and go over to the flowers .
I March through the grips and find a good spot to lay down . The flowers tickling my bear legs as the breeze moves them . I giggle . The sky is pretty pinks oranges and yellows . I could look at it for hours .
I pluck petals off of flowers . I hum a song .
That's when I hear the door open . Someone walks through the field to me .  It's Luca . The sun shining is his baby blue eyes that match mine .
"Hey Eddy ."
"Hey Lukie"
He smirks at the nickname .
He sits down next to me .
"It's really pretty out here ."
"Yeah I reawy, really like it . "I reply my mouth not wanting to say the ly in the sentence .
I look at Luca and then get up and  sit in his lap . He smiles at my cuteness .
I play with his hands but accidentally show him my wrist .
He stiffens and turns me in his lap .
Uh oh ...
