I didn't like waking up on the hard floor. It hurt my bottom. I knew today would be bad, like every day.
I sat up and held my teddy bear. I heard 'Mister' coming. He's very mean. He said, "Get up!" but I was too scared.
He got mad and kicked me. I held my bear tight and didn't cry. I didn't want him to kick me more. When he stopped kicking me, he told me to clean. He said people were coming.
He pulled me to the kitchen and told me to make food. I tried, but I don't know how to cook. He got mad at the food and threw a plate. He pulled my hair and yelled.
He hurt my head, but then he let me go. He went out the door and it was loud. I think he went to get his yucky drinks. They make him mean.
I wanted to run away. I have Ribbons, my bunny. She's my friend. I took Ribbons and ran out the door. I didn't know where to go. It started raining and I got tired. I went under a bench and hid with Ribbons. I don't want to see 'Mister' again. '''

The day had unfolded with the usual weight of underworld dealings, the kind of business that was conducted only makes me wonder why I still let myself put up with people like that. As much as I would love to kill everyone, I know my wife wouldn't be too fond of that.
The meeting was brief, Not paying attention because I had already told them the same answer as the previous meeting. blowing out a breath and standing up in irritation. Reaching around and grabbing my gun before blowing this guy's brains all over the table and walking out leaving the rest to deal with it themselves.
As I walked back to the car with my men following behind me, when IN the corner of my eye something had caught my eye.
As I walked towards the bench, motioning for my men to stay back I kneeled to look. the sight of a young girl that had to be not older than three was sleeping under a public bench trying to shield themselves from the rain.
Looking at this little girl I could tell that she was mixed considering her skin was a beautiful camel color, and her hair was long and curly yet, it seemed to be caught in knots all around. looking at her physic I could tell that she was way too skinny and fragile.
After I looked over her I think she could tell that someone was watching her because her eyes soon opened and landed on me and my men in the background. the look of terror on her face caused a feeling to well up inside me.
Softly speaking, I saw being to back up, "It's okay, Principessina, I won't hurt you," I said hoping it would bring her some kind of comfort.
"Can you tell me your name, Bambina?" I asked her gently. She looked down, hesitating, then whispered, "Winter."
"Hi Winter, I'm Davian Do you need help going home? Are you lost, bambina?" I tried to keep my voice calm and friendly. In the corner of my eyes, I could see that my men were shocked to see me act this way even though I just shot a man not long ago.
"No, please I don't wanna go back," she said almost instantly. I've met children who didn't want to go home because they were having fun and enjoying themselves. In her case that wasn't it, she was scared of someone. This might be the reason behind her running away like this.
"It's alright. I won't take you back, Piccola. So just take some deep breaths for me okay." I said holding my hand out to her son so she would come out from under the bench.
After a few minutes, of holding my hand out she then grabbed it while her face was stuffed in her stuffed animal. gently guiding from under and onto the bench.
Since it's dark out I could really see her clothes on the bench and now that I do I can see that she's only in a shirt that has multiple holes in it, with no shoes on her feet.
shrugging jacket off and wrapping it around her knowing that she had to be cold. Watching her face, if I were to have a daughter she would have to be something like this.
"Bambina, do you want to come with me? I'll make sure you're safe and well taken care of," I offered gently, giving her a reassuring smile.
Giving me a small nod before I reached out to pick her up since she had no shoes on. lifting her and holding her close enough to feel her body tremble and slightly tense up. walking over to the car I could feel her body begin to loosen up and relax against me.
holding her with one hand and using my other to carry her stuffie that was slipping from her grasp. Finally sitting back car where she was fully asleep and content against me. Turning up the heat and making sure that it was gained towards her as we made our way to the landing strip to head home.
On the way there I crossed with the thought of how my wife will take me bringing the little one home with me.
