2. Stay away from the mafia!

Author's POV

"Shh... It's me miss..."

Her assistant whispered. She looked at him while he dragged her towards the car and literary threw her inside. He quickly started the car and drove away from the scene. 

Sarah took deep breaths to gather herself. Her heart was beating rapidly. 

"M_Mr. W_William we should call the cops..."

She panicked but he was totally calm like nothing has happened. 

"Miss you should relax..."

He gave her the water bottle which she quickly took and gulped it down. 

"We can't do anything... They are mafias and cops can't do shit about it. Just forget what you saw. It's better for everyone. "

She looked at him in disbelief.

"But how can we___"

"Just forget about it miss. We can't do anything. its better you stay away from mafia people..."

He said nonchalantly and pulled in front of her mansion. 

He turned around and gave her very serious expressions. 

"By now you know how this world works. I know you are smart and won't do anything that will get you in a trouble..."

Sarah nodded reluctantly and stepped out of the car. Her mind was again and again drifting towards the crime she just witnessed. How that handsome devil sliced that man's throat and how his blood splattered on the dirty ground. How his eyes were so cold like he didn't feel anything, like he is not a human. 

'Well of course he isn't because no human can kill someone like that... Mr. William is right I should stay away from this matter. If he is really mafia then I am sure he has connections and cops can't do anything'

She shook her head and entered the house. Home was just a word, that feeling was nowhere near her heart or mind. For Sarah it was just a place where she sleeps. She leaves this place before sunrise and everyday comes home at late night. She has now forgotten the faces of maids and guards of this house. 

She has no idea what happens in the mansion all day. What her father do to spend his time. What her sister is currently doing in her life. It was 6 months she has visited her brother in hospital who is still in coma. Belongingness was nowhere to be found. She felt stranger to this house and to the people staying in it. 

Sarah headed upstairs ignoring the guards. Her father always keep the security tight and she doesn't know the reason behind it. 

'why that old man need so much security. Only thing he does is sit and bother everyone...'

As soon as she entered her room she threw herself on the bed not even bothering to take off her slippers. Her eyes started drifting off but knock on the door brought her back. 

The head maid Martha came in with the plate of food and with sweet motherly look on her face. 

Martha placed the plate aside and made her sit. Sarah eyes were half closed as she sat there and

Martha fed her as much as she can. 

"How you always manage to read me Martha..."

Sarah asked throwing herself back on the bed. 

"You are very easy to read my child. I know how to take care of you..."

She replied tucking Sarah inside the bed sheets. 

Like everyday Sarah asked her one question.

"Why ?..."

'Why this maid always takes care of me when my own family don't even have a time to look at me.' 

Martha never answered that question. Whenever Sarah asked that question, Martha just smiles sadly and leaves.

"Good night my child..."

That soothing words worked like a lullaby and she embraced the sleep. After all the hectic work her mind was exhausted. 

Sarah woke with jolt when she dreamt about that horrified scene which she witnessed last night. Same cold grey eyes. Blood and scream. She wiped the sweat of her face and desperately gulped down the water which was on night stand. She glanced at the clock and it was 4 in the morning, she only slept for 3 hours. She refused to go back to sleep after her nightmare and decided to get ready for the day. 

She did her morning business and wore her office clothes. Martha gave her breakfast which she ate in her room not wanting to talk with any of her family member and make her day worse. 

Sarah took out the pills from her drawer and gulped them down. 

Depression and anxiety were her only best friends. She was severely suffering from that and getting therapy. She wasn't sure how long she will manage to stay sane. Workload was too much and Even after doing her best she wasn't getting any love from anyone.

At the beginning she tried to ignore it but how long she will manage to stay without love. She wasn't feeling complete. After all she was a human who do needs love and care. Martha was the only one who provides little bit comfort and love otherwise nothing were encouraging in her boring life. 

Never in her whole life she thought that lack of love and affection could damage a person like this. It Makes you feel so alone and abandoned but when she experienced it herself then she understood how does it actually feel like. Sarah spend her whole day in working and attending meetings. She wasn't waiting for this night at all still she has no choice. 

She knows that this night won't be easy, something bad will definitely happen. 

She head towards the home where her father wish to have dinner with her. She didn't bother to look presentable neither she cares. When she entered the dining hall she saw her father and his friend who was his adviser and personal assistant too. But Natasha was nowhere to be seen.
