Rosa's POV:
Finally... outside.
Outside of that room.
I inhale the fresh air, feeling the warm sunlight on my skin.
God, I never thought I would miss things like that in life...
It is gorgeous here. The sky is so blue today, the clouds look made of cotton.
How long have I been trapped? The days just merged with eachother...
I can't believe I will miss my last school year because of this crap. Though I believe they'll understand since I have been kidnapped.
Father must be so worried.... He is always at different locations and doesn't have a phone, so I have to wait for him to call me. He must have done so, multiple times, and I haven't picked it up. Lila and my classmates probably noticed my disappearance, they may have already contacted the authorities. I wonder if anyone is searching for me, maybe even Rex...I am at the mansion's garden. The plants are designed and placed in order like a city, except much more pleasant to look at. It still has some of that wannabe classic architecture, but it is sparse and discreet. B
ut most importantly: it is green! how have I missed green, and plants in general. I feel like going to touch them, but then I am brought back to my reality of guards patrolling aroundarmed with machine guns and their German Shepherd dogs.I am able to take a better look at the mansion, that stood behind me. It isn't as big or tall as I thought it was, though running though those corridors made It seem like a gigantic maze.
I am myself matching this environment. I chose my own outfit this time, and decided on wearing a short sleeved suit dress that looks a bit like something out of the 1940s. It is one of the few tasteful things at that wardrobe, as most of the stuff there looks like something a new rich teen girl from the 1980s would wear. I also picked open toe pumps, a white cart-wheel hat with a black lace, and big round sunglasses, since I didn't know how my eyes would react to the sun.
"You look gorgeous, my Rose."
Irk. It is him.
I turn around to face Nero. He is again in a suit, but holding his coat over his shoulder. His white shirt is unbottoned like that again and his sleeves folded up to his elbows, exposing his tattooed arms. They are muscular and very veiny. His waist is odly thin compared to his large shoulders and arms - he look like a cartoon character. Maybe he takes steroids? That is the stereotypical look of steroid pumped sports scholarship frat boys.
