I watched her from through the cloth-covered windows, she was sleeping in once again and I had waited for Paxe to get ready to leave before I could enter the apartment.

I jumped down after retreating down the staircase along the apartment wall, I entered the building and as planned, I bumped into the blonde purposely as I snatched the keys without her knowledge. "I am so sorry ma'am, I didn't see you." She shook her head. "It's my fault, please pardon me." She then left as I waited a while before unlocking the door and closing it behind me.

I made my way to the bedroom, carefully crawling on the bed as I crossed my legs as sat beside the sleeping Joestar before placing a hand on her shoulder and gently shaking her "Get up. Come on, get the hell up, now." The other just shooed my hand away as she gripped the blanket before turning over, grumbling.

I crawled onto the bed, standing up to stand behind her before I kicked her back, gritting my teeth "I said get up, you lazy ass." She yelped and shoot up with a hand on her back, looking over at me as fear struck her "Morning, sunshine." She stayed silent and stared up at me

I squatted down as she continued to stare at me, I huffed and blow some of my purple hair from my face as I then moved the hair out of the Joestar's face "Well, aren't you going to say anything or will you make this easy?" Joia scooted away from me as she yelped once she fell off the bed and crawled off, I facepalmed and rolled my eyes as I walked to the edge before getting off the bed and walking after her.

She kept crawling away before I grabbed her arm and made her roll onto her back as I sat on her stomach she sharply inhaled "G-Get off!-" She yelled, her voice shaking a bit, I shook my head as she balled her fist and weakly hit my chest to get me off her, I grabbed her arms "Stop being difficult, Joia Joestar." She stared at him blankly.

I got off her but still held her arms as I pulled her to her feet "Wh-Who are you?? How do y-you know my name?!" "That's not important." She stomped on my foot and I winced which she used as an advantage to wiggle free and bolted to the door, opening it and running out of the apartment.

I left the key in the lock when I saw a glimpse of Paxe and Joia walking back, the brunette was explaining to the other what had happened so I looked at the floor and walked past but when I was behind them, I bolted for an escape to not be caught.

Point of view change, Joia's.

I noticed the man run and I chased after him, Paxe sighed quietly and ran after me as I made my attempt to catch up to him. I reached my arm out and failed the first time to grab the back of his jacket, he responded to my attempt by quickly turning around and grabbing my arm moving it in front of my chest to shove me harshly into a wall.

He resumed his run as Paxe caught up, sliding on the concrete sidewalk when stopping to a halt to make sure I was okay, I assured her as I looked to see him having disappeared into the busy crowd “Joia, are you pazzo?! You shouldn't have chased after him like that, you could've gotten extremely hurt!” She helped me up.

“I'm not crazy, Paxe. He knew my name and I think that's creepy and weird.” Paxe looked at her blankly before sighing “Joia, I promised your padre that I wouldn't let anything bad happen to you, I also promised you that I wouldn't let you get hurt...” I nodded slowly and looked at the ground “Let's just go back..”

She nodded and held my hand as we walked back as his knowledge of her name swirled in her thoughts surrounded by numerous others.

Once we got back to the apartment and I sat on the couch with Paxe before I heard the door swing open, Paxe had called Knox and told him of the break-in. He ran over to me “What the fuck happened?? Are you okay Joia??” I nodded “Just spooked a little, I'm fine though!” I assured Knox as he nodded and looked around “Did he steal anything? Are you sure of it?” I shook my head.

He just said.. ‘Well, aren't you going to say anything or will you make this easy?’. It freaked me out... I think he wanted me more than anything of ours...” He hid his worried expression, nodding in response “That's really- Weird... Did he hurt you?” “He only kicked my back, that hurt a lot...” He bit his lip and grumbled, “But otherwise, you are okay?”

I nodded as I looked at the floor, he sat beside me and looked at me with Paxe sitting on the opposite side of me. We all just sat in silence before I realized that Knox didn't close the door I stood up to close the door properly before I went to pour myself more tea.

I knew they both were talking as I poured my tea into my cup, quietly moving from the kitchen area to go hide in the bedroom as I sat on the bed and sighed, swinging my left foot back and forth

I was alone with my thoughts, they swirled in my head as I set the cup on the nightstand nearby and laid on my back wincing a bit as it ached a bit still.

What did he want with me? It was clear he was aggressive towards me, but what would he have done if I wasn't lucky to get free from him? I kept pondering these questions as I stared up at the ceiling.
