Vol 6.
Dahlia pov-
I waited a bit until one of my brothers came to get for dinner
While I waited, I needed to make a phone call
The phone rang until that person answered
"Hey Lea, missed me?" I said
"Dahlia, what the hell I have been calling you all day?" Ophelia screamed
"Hey, hey, can you not bust my eardrum?" I exclaimed
"What's going on, Lia?" She asked
"Well, Jameson died, and I found out he's not my real father, and my real father took me in with my brothers 8 brothers to be exact, and now I'm in New York" I said all at once
"Woah woah woah what?" She yelled
"Yep," I said, popping the P
"Well, did you tell them about Jameson or about her," She asked
"No, I haven't, and I won't, I don't trust them enough to tell them about her at all," I said coldly
"Come on, Lia, they're not like James she can finally come home with you," She spoked
"Okay, maybe they aren't like James, but I still don't trust them,"
"You'll come around, Lia," She voiced
"How is she?" I spoke softly
"She's good Lia she started daycare yesterday, and it seems like she loves it." Ophelia started
"I miss her," I said as my voice cracked
"Whenever you're ready, I'll be on the way with her," She said
Before I could sy anything, my two least favorite brothers walk in
'Lea, I'm gonna have to call you back later, " I said
"Dinner is ready," Alessio said, glaring at me
Out of all people, they ask, to call me for dinner they ask them
"Don't you guys know how to knock?" I hissed
"Who is her?" Rafael asked
"Where you guys eavesdropping on my phone conversation?" I growled
I tried to walk past them, but Rafael grabbed my arm, stopping me in my tracks
"Whatever you're hiding, we are going to find out sooner or later," he spoke
I looked at him with panicked eyes, which his and Alessio face softened
I removed my hand from his hand and walked out of my room going downstairs even though I had no clue where to go, but I made it to the dining room
I couldn't let them find out about her, not yet
I was greeted by everyone except Rafael and Alessio, who wasn't at the table yet. I sat in between the twins, and when I did, Alessio and Rafael walked in
The maids that worked here came out and brought the food. Once they settled everything on the table, they walked out, and the boys started to dig in
Wow, that's a lot of food
"Why aren't you eating, sorellina?" Angelo asked
Now, all eyes on were me
"Oh- um nothing," I said, putting my head down
"Dahlia, one thing we don't like in this household is liars," Alessandro said sternly, sending shivers down my spine
"So I can eat" that came more out like a question
"What the-" Rafael started, but Father interrupted
"Of course you eat. Why would you ask that? " He said
"Oh, no reason," I said
"Dahlia," Alessandro said coldly
I stood up and slammed my fists against the table, which nobody jumped or flinched
"I don't have to tell you guys anything, so piss off," I hissed
"Dahlia, watch it," Alessandro roared, standing up
"Or what?" I said, glaring at him
He looked at me with a seethed look, but that didn't stop me from backing down. I haven't been here for a day, and they already expect me to tell them everything. Well, that's not happening, captain
"Okay, everyone, calm down now." Our father exclaimed
Now, all eyes were on him
"Dahlia, Alessandro, sit down," He implied
And we did as we were told. We waited until he spoke but none words were spoken I kinda felt bad for speaking to Alessandro like that but I had enough of people controlling me when I can do this or when I can't do that or when to speak, eat, sleep, or shit. It was already bad enough. I couldn't stand up against Jameson he had some type of fear put into me where I did everything he asked me to participate in hurting me or doing things an adult shouldn't do to a child
"Dahlia," Father called out loudly, making me flinch in the process
"Yes?" I said, looking at me with a worried face
"We have rules that we need to go over," he spoke
I gulped, nodding my head me and rules never really gotten along . In other words, I never followed rules
"Rule Always be on time for dinner
Rule 1 Always listen to me or your brothers
Rule 2 Verbal Answers
Rule 3 Respect me and your brothers
Rule 4 Let us know where you're at, at all times
Rule 5 No drinking or smoking
Rule 6 No boyfriends
Rule 7 Get good grades in school
Rule 8 Do not go to the third stairs, " He said (I went blank for the rules, so I tried my best if you have any rules in mind lmk)
They all looked at me, waiting for me to answer
Even though there were half of the things I already did but I went along with it
"Okay, but respect goes both ways. I'll respect you if you give me respect back, " I said
"Understandable," Father said
I stood up from my seat, "Now may I be excused," I said
"You didn't even eat," Alessandro stated
"Well, I'm not hungry now. may I please bc excused? " I answered
"Yes, you may, but tomorrow you will eat Dahlia," Father said
I was going to nod my head, but then I remembered their rule, "Yes sir," I said and left the table heading back upstairs
Once I walked into my I closed the door locking I let a breath out that I didn't even know I was holding I slid down my door and I broke down
After a few minutes past of my complete sobbing session, I walked into the bathroom. I turned the hot water and took my clothes. I stepped into the shower, letting the steaming hot water hit my skin. I watched as the dirt and blood flow of my body and into the drain. I grabbed the body wash that was already in here
Once I was finished, I turned the shower off and stepped out of it. I grabbed a towel that was on my shelf and wrapped it around me
I walked into my room, grabbing the clothes off the bed I took out. I grabbed the ointment that I had for my wounds. Once I did that, I wrapped up my bottom back that had a large gash. I put my clothes and headed into the bed, then I slowly felt my eyelid close falling into this dark ness of sleep
