Everything Broken Can't Be Fixed

>Chapter 3<

What did he just say?

Regaining my composure I took a few steps back and nervously cleared my throat.

"Um... S-sorry for crashing into you. I didn't see you there I'm trying to find my friend and her brother is really pissed off at me and-" noticing that I was rambling I took a deep breath and looked up at the stranger.

His black eyes were still locked on me and the small smirk he held was still in place.

"Who are you looking for?" He said in a really thick Italian accent.

Oh man not only was he beautiful but he had an Italian accent.

"I'm looking for Kali.. short brunette with a red dress on.." I said, praying that he seen her.

"Are you speaking of Castello's sister?" He said while furrowing his eyebrows.

I nodded my head viciously hoping that he seen her.

"She went down that hall with some man. I don't know if you know this about your little friend but um ... she has quite the reputation." He said giggling, while pointing to the hallway on the right.

Oh god, I know exactly what he was talking about. Let's just say Kali liked sleeping around ... a lot but that's a story for another time.

"Okay thank you." I say out of breath. Maybe it was because I needed to find Kali or maybe it was because this man made me breathless. If you ever asked me I would deny the latter though.

I ran down the hall and turned right and what I saw was disgusting, it was Kali pushed up against the wall by some old man. Anyone not paying attention would have thought she was enjoying it but I could hear her saying stop, and she was to intoxicated to do anything about it.

I had to think logically, if I tried to fight him on my own I would lose because although he looked old he was very fit, almost as big as Castello. I'm still going to try to help Kali, she's my girl........but after I call someone to come here as a plan B. I pulled my phone out of my purse and called the one person who could help.

The phone rang twice before he picked up.

"What do you want, I'm busy." Well Castello obviously was still mad at me.

"I found Kali."

"What! Where are you?" I think this is the most relived he's ever sounded to hear my voice.

I heard laughter over the line. Shit.

"I said that out loud again didn't I?" His laugh sounded kind of nice if I'm being honest.

"You did, now where are you." Geez so serious all the time.

"I don't know exactly where, but I know we're on the second floor right near the balcony." I heard a lot of mumbled Italian that didn't sound like compliments.

"Oh and Castello there's one more thing. There's an old man that has Kali pushed against the wall and she can't do anything to stop him. I'm gonna try to help her, but you need to hurry in case it doesn't work out that way."

"Aisha I'm coming, don't you dare-"

"Hurry Cas." I knew he would try to stop me, but it's not like he cared about me so I don't see the deal.

When I looked up my blood started boiling. The man had Kali down to her bra and underwear and she was sobbing but he wouldn't stop groping her. I looked around for something to defend my self with and I found Kali's purse discarded on the floor near them. Kali's purse is always heavy as hell, with what I don't know but it serves as a weapon.

"Hey! That's my friend let go of her bitch." My words were laced with venom as I stalked towards them. The purse was at the opposite wall, like it was thrown, easy access.

"Calm down you'll get some soon enough. If only this bitch would stay still." He must have had a death wish, because all I'm seeing right now is red.

I launched toward the purse and searched inside, I found lipstick, blush, mascara, and a... dagger? Whatever I'll question Kali later just like how I plan on beating her ass for getting drunk.

I pressed the knife to the back of the man's neck and he went still. I was the one shaking and nervous, I had never held a weapon before, but I had to defend Kali.

"W-what did I tell you to do. Back away from her." He put her down and put his hands up, backing away from her slowly. When he was a good 6 feet away from Kali, I started to lower the knife.

"N-now get out of here." I motioned for him to leave, with a nod he turned around and started walking down the hall.

"What's going on here?" I see the man I bumped into earlier walking towards the scene.
His face contorted from confusion and into worry in mere seconds.

I turned my attention back to Kali to try and help her up until I felt the knife being taken out of my hand. I didn't feel anything at first but then all I felt was pain as the knife stabbed through my arm.

"You should have never turned around sweetheart." He breathed in my ear as he twisted the knife.  He yanked it out and squeezed my eyes shut preparing for another wrath of pain but it never happened..

Opening my eyes I see the man I bumped into hovering over the monster that stabbed me.

I look down at my bloodied arm and let out a
A pained scream.

The sight of my arm made me light headed and before darkness completely overtook me I felt a pair of arms wrap around me, and lift me off of the ground.

"Thank you." I mumbled and complete darkness washed over me.
