RESURGENCE (rinascita)

CHAPTER 10

Jessica POV

"OMG, Amanda, you made it!" My sister said coming outside the door. She saved me. Oh, I love this girl so much.

I remained silent. She grabbed my arm and started to drag me to her room. "Hey, um a taxi driver is waiting, a km from here. I didn't have a purse, so tell someone to give him his money." I said.

"Ms. Rosaline..." my sister waved her hand in front of Joseph, "Don't worry, I know her. She is my friend. And please go and give money to the taxi driver. He is waiting outside, a km away from here." And then we went straight to her room.

"Oh GOD!!! Jessica, you are here. Are you okay?" she said with worry in her voice while hugging me and in return, I hugged her too. She is acting, again.

"Yes, I am fine. I need to change and I need to see dad soon." I said and started to go towards my room. "Hey, where were you all this time?" she asked me when I was about to close the door, my back facing her.

"I stayed with my friend after I escaped. I am going to rest for a while." I lied.

"Rest? You are lying. Your friends called me, again and again, to know if you were back or not. You don't have another friend other than those three bitches." she doesn't like them. I don't know why?

"I can't tell you that. Be happy that I am back. I have other friends too and I am not going to tell you about every one of them." I said slightly irritated.

"Umm, thank you for doing this for me. I mean you.." I cut her off. "No need to thank me, drama queen. I will do it for you if I have to do it again." I said and she remained silent this time. I closed the door. I remembered all the things that happened last night.

I went to my room to see if all the things were in their place or not. My huge bed with a royal purple bed sheet on it. Black carpet and curtains clean.

I opened my drawer but it was messed up. The last time I checked in here was before I got kidnapped and it was in order.

Remind me to kill that fucker. Alex. It must be him. But how can he enter my room?

Who came into my room? I will find whosoever it was. I took a shower and looked at my wound. It was all blue and purple.

He saved my life but still, it was his people who shot me. He will pay for that but he might have a reason for doing that. His green eyes were so mesmerizing and hot. Only remembering them sent shivers on my body. Are there any chances I will see him again? Yes. But will he see me again? No. 

Fuck me, what am I thinking? 

I came out of the bathroom and dried my hair. I wore flared pants and a bustier top with a blazer on top of it. Wearing other things to cover my identity.

I went downstairs to see my dad on his rocking chair. "Dad," I said in a low voice. "Oh, Jessica." He almost ran towards me and embraced me in his arms.

"How are you? Are you hurt?" he asked me.

I went on the couch and sat down. "Dad, come here." He came and sat beside me. "No, I am fine and I am not hurt." I lied to him because he doesn't look that worried at all. What is it with me and my suspicions?

"Dad you are going to call Francesco to a party. We are going to arrange it in our home." I told my dad to change the topic.

"Where were you? Who kidnapped you?" he asked me ignoring what I said before and again changing the topic.

"No one did and I was with someone you don't need to know," I said not wanting to tell him what happened. "Fine, we will arrange a party this weekend. Okay?" he asked. Now, everything was going as planned.
