I pulled the sheets that lay there and tried to cover myself up. I pulled my legs closer to my body, hugged myself and cried. I had no one here to help me. I am alone, all alone in this place. I didn't know what people here are capable of doing. Fuck! I don't even know where I am?
I just wanted to go home. I can't stay here. That man just tried to rape me. Me of all people, why me? What wrong did I do? I have never spoken bad of anyone, never meant anyone any harm? Then why me?
I was still sobbing when the door opened and Maya entered.
She panicked and rushed towards me. She pulled the sheet above my body to cover me and hugged me.
"Shh.... Calm down Bella,stop crying please. " She spoke trying to comfort me. I tried to control my tears, to stop crying but they didn't stop.
"Why?...Why me?" I asked Maya. She removed her arms from around me and wiped my tears with her hand.
She took my hands in her's. She was looking at them. Avoiding me. Not answering my question.
"Why me Maya" I asked again. She then looked up tears filling her eyes.
" I am sorry Bella, I knew I should have told you, I am so sorry" She said.
"What... What should you have told me??" I asked her again.
"I'll tell you. But for now you should rest. Please sleep." She replied.
I was irritated now. I was tired of hearing words like "no, afterwords". This time I wasn't taking no as an answer to my questions. I wanted to know where I was? I am no fool to sit here and cry. I wanted to go home.
She started picking my tore clothes from the floor and went to the closet and took out a shirt.
She them came and handed me the shirt. " Rest Bella, please sleep."
"No" I shouted. " How can you expect me to rest when someone just tried to rape me Maya! Do I look like an idiot. I know you are not willing to tell me. But I want my answer. Just tell me what shitty place is this and why am I here? I want answers Maya. I won't take a no this time as an answer."
She was looking at me, still thinking whether to tell me or not. She sighed and finally said yes. "Okay, I'll tell you everything. But first cover yourself up"
I nodded my head and pulled the shirt above my head and wore it. She sat down beside me.
"The man you just saw, his name is Logan Enzo, the leader of Italian Mafia. He deals in drugs, weapons and every other illegal thing you can imagine. He is dangerous and lethal and doesn't think twice before killing someone. This house that you are staying in belongs to him." Maya spoke while I was still trying to register everything inside my brain.
Logan Enzo
Leader
Mafia
Drugs, weapons
Killing
Maya again started,"He is ruthless, brutal and merciless. He kills without thinking but not for fun. He.. he lends people money and if they don't return it he either gives them a little more time or kills them. You can say he..he is heartless. That's why people call him a heartless monster, beast! "
Heartless
Beast
How can someone be so unkind and hurtful? Is it even possible to be heartless? Everyone has a soft corner in their heart.... but maybe he doesn't have one, obviously he doesn't have one, if he would have had one he would have not done what he did to me. People call him beast, there must be some reason behind it. Moreover I don't know anything about him, I know only what Maya has told me. And definitely she would knew about him cause she lives with him..... But who is Maya, she dresses like a maid but she is a nice person but how come she is here and knows all about this person and place....
Okay I know that was very short but I am planning on writing more in the next chapters. So till then, lots of love people ❤️❤️❤️
