Have you ever woken up from a deep sleep and realized that that you're not really waking up? It's not a very comforting thing, trying to open your eyes and yell out 'I'm awake I'm awake', just to shush the voices in the room. Wait a minute. Voices in the room. Aren't I at home? I can hear them talking about me. 

"When the hell is she going to wake up? The doctor said she doesn't have any injuries, all that blood was Rafael's." one voice says to apparently somebody else that was in the room, I can hear him pacing. 

"Calm down boss, she'll wake up when she's ready." somebody else reassures. 

Finally, after thinking really hard, hearing the name Angelo helped, I started to remember what all happened yesterday. Mom died, lost my apartment, fixed the car, killed a man etc. etc. By this time, I really have to pee and all of a sudden, my eyes finally fly open. Not my best moment as I shoot to a sitting position with a loud gasp. Before I know it, I have my new friends Rob and Angelo on either side on me with their hands out like I'm going to break or something. 

"Are you okay? Do you need anything? My God you were asleep for forever!" Angelo says quickly while helping me stand. That's when I look down and notice I'm no longer in my bloody clothes.

"Where are my clothes? And guns? WHO CHANGED ME!?" I said getting louder till I was yelling the last part. Both men slowly stepped away. 

"My sister changed you for me don't worry!" Angleo said with his hands up in front of him. "Your guns are in your bedside table and your clothes have been burned, they were covered in another man's blood after all. I'll replace them if you want." He adds slowly, almost making sure I'm not going to attack him.

"Oh. That makes sense. Where's the bathroom? I'd like to freshen up a bit." I ask expectantly.

"Right over there. I'll send for some food for you. There's clean clothes in the closet for you. I'll give you some privacy mio caro (my darling)." he tells me as he points at the other 2 doors in the room before walking out. He obviously doesnt know im fluent in Italian as well. I'll save that little piece of information for when he says something embarrassing or something.

This is literally the biggest bathroom I have ever seen. Marble countertop with a vanity in the middle. Jetted Jacuzzi tub and a huge walk-in shower. I strip as fast as I can and walk into the shower. I get the water warmed up and it starts falling from the ceiling and the sides. Water is falling from all directions, and it feels amazing. There's some Vanilla and Honey shampoo that looks super expensive. I wash my hair slowly, loving the feeling and smell. My entire body instantly relaxes. Unfortunately, my hair takes forever to wash since it goes down to my waist. I have a lot of hair. I quickly shave my legs and get out to grab a towel. Wow. The towel is even warm and huge and fluffy and soft. This is amazing. Too bad I won't be here long to keep enjoying it. 

The walk-in closet is even better than the bathroom. This closet is bigger than half of my apartment. And it is filled with women's clothing, all my size. What the hell. Did he buy me all these clothes or are they his sisters? Deciding not to stand around in a towel I grab some under garments, white lace panties and bra. Slip into those and then I grab a midthigh length skirt, another pastel flower print. I grab a light pink sleeveless top and a cute jean jacket. Putting those on I decide where to hide my guns. One on my right thigh, then I grab my under-clothes holster strap, put it around my shoulders and strap my other pistol on my left side, easily accessible, just in case. I throw the jacket on and head back into the bathroom. Luckily you can't notice either gun on me, so I blow dry my hair out till it is hanging down my back with its natural waves in. 

All dressed I decide to try to find the kitchen, considering I am starving. Slipping into some heels before leaving the room, when I walk out to the hall I stop in my tracks. How big is Angelo's house? Even this fucking hallway is huge, and I have no idea which way to go. I turn to the left and follow that till I eventually hit a staircase. I get down and I see more doors. I follow this new hallway; it seems to be going in a circle. My heels are clicking against the hard floor that I don't even realize I've been snuck up on.  A hand on my shoulder spins me around and I come face to face with Rob.
