Encounters with the mafia

Chapter 3

Taliyah

Waking up to the sun beaming in my eyes with the cool breath flowing through my hair. Oh how good it feel .... I have never felt so relaxed in years.... slowly getting off the bed trying not to hurt my side I walked into the bathroom.. did I mention that it's inside the bedroom...... this is like a dream come true.

I just hope this dream is not one where I wake up because I would be crushed where there was no hope left.... pushing past my negative thoughts I slowly glanced at my reflection... I looked like a punching bag as always but there was something in my eyes that I have never seen before ...... hope .... a small smile tucked at my lips when I saw something I lost so many years ago

Turning around to freshen up I stripped off all my clothes to enter the shower ...... warm water cascaded down my tiny frame and it felt like heaven ..... no more pins and needles from the icy cold water which was what I had no choice but to bathe in. This was too much ..... holding my hand on my mouth to prevent me from making any loud sounds I cried softly..... not because I was in pain but because I was filled with so much joy.

After about half an hour I got out of the bath .... only to realize that I don't have a towel .... my nerves started to pick up... what was I going to do.... in the owner of the room was my ti-shirt... I quickly grabbed it to cover up as best as I can.

It was not to much use as it only cover small pieces ... I paced around the room thinking what would I do .... but to my agony someone came in the room ... to my horror it was Adrian

Shock was evident on his face as he took in my site. Embarrassment took over my whole body, panic gripped me and my eyes pooled with tears. Getting out of his shock state he quickly put the clothes on my bed with a towel and told me that someone would come up to introduce me to the place ..... was he doing that now really... I could of curled up in a ball and die.

He tossed me the towel and turned around while I quickly cover up ... I still felt very insecure .... why couldn't he just leave... as if reading my mind he said,

I have to leave in 5 minutes so this was the only time I could tell you how to get settled in. Turning around He looked at me dead in the eyes before scanning my body from head to toe. For some reasons anger flashed through his before he could cover it up with his cold stare. He then glanced back up to my eyes, his intense stare piercing holes through me causing a shiver to run down my spine. I gave him a small nod stating that I understand

Seconds passed as he just stared at him..... I wonder what was going through his head ... out of the blue he took a bold step toward me and I took one back timidly, at this time my wet hair felt to stick to my face covering my eyes.

To afraid to move I left it stuck to my face .... but so swiftly he raise his hand which cause me to flinch and brace myself for a slap ..... one I knew would hurt based on the size of his hands.... but it never came.

Turning slowly to gaze at him I saw so many emotions flowing through his eyes I couldn't separate them ..... he softly whispered to me as though I would break if he said it any louder ..... I would never hurt you Taliyah.... but I promise you I will hurt the person that hurt you .... he said the ending harshly with the a lot of sincerity in his voice which caused me to shiver ..... and with that he left the room .

The room was tensed with what just happen ... with so much emotions going through me I curled up in a ball on my bed and cried ....... cried about my life , my parents , how broken I was .... I cried until I couldn't cry no more .

Three hours later:
My stomach grumbled as I jumped from my slumber .... still curled up on the bed I realized that I feel asleep from all the crying.... I cringed at the thought that my eyes would be all red and puffy. Gently getting up I put the clothes that was on the bed.

It was a nice floral top and a three quarter jeans ..... it fit me perfectly....I was shock that they have clothes that were not big for me judging my size .... nothing never fit my tiny waist or would go up my wide hips..... I was so abnormal!

Going downstairs to meet Kayla ... the girl Adrian told me to look for to get a tour of the house ... to my surprise I won't be finding Kayla anytime soon because of how big and magnificent this house was with its marble walls and sculptures and fine brass banisters ...this house blew my breath away

Cutting off my ogling short ....Simone tap my shoulder frightening me...... turning around swiftly I was meet with this short French or Italian girl that had the most silky hair I have ever seen .... feeling a blush creeping on my face as she caught me look like a little kid who so candy I slowly lowered my gaze to the floor.

Seeing my timid expressions she burst into laughter which caused me to blush more,

"Girl I'm gonna like you ..... you so so innocent I could corrupt you in so many ways that you would dream of ... "that caused me to blush more...... "Adrian told me you were shy I just didn't expect you to be this cute".... at the mention of his name my heart beat raced,Adrian talked about me! ........ "anyway I'm Kayla your new bestie .... you can call me Kay if you want all my baes call me that"..... oh so this is Kayla, well I found her quicker than I expected. Shyly I said hi my name is Taliyah.

"Girl I know .... you self took forever you missed breakfast you must be starving let's get you something to eat and then we can party in this bitch just don't tell Adrian.

Laughing at her enthusiasm I allowed her to lead the way so I could answer my stomach calls.

The day past by fast and Kayla made it very enjoyable with her amazing personality .... she made me feel comfortable around her ..... I got to know everywhere around this massive house and my duties ..... I jus had to cook for Adrian and all his workers every night .... that was a simple tasks as I always loved cooking.

I was now in the kitchen swaying my hips to Rihanna as I cooked my mother special dish tuna casseroles .... it smelled just like hers .. that I shedded a few tears just thinking about how much she love that dish ..... Kayla was behind the counter trying to twerk which caused me to burst out laughing ... this was amazing.

Our fun was short lived when the door slammed and in walked in a furious Adrian ..... oh boy I hope his anger is not towards me.
