"It's a journey not a race, keep going at your own pace"~ Lesley DianaI wake up alone in the morning, I'm not surprised as Salvatore is an early riser, I look around and find a bag of food beside me and a note attached to it. I take it and read through it.'Good morning Mio Amore,I got you breakfast, when your anger is subsided please return back to our room, if you still don't want to then I'm not going to force you but remember it's also your room and you can use it to freshen up or change your clothesYoursSalvatore''Your room' I roll my eyes remembering is previous words that he said to me.I clear up the area and stack my things in a corner, I do need to use the restroom, I go to Ray's room and use her bathroom, I take a shower and change into a new dress.I step out inside the room while drying my hair with the towel, "You're getting beautiful by each passing day" a male voice makes me yelp in surprise, with wide eyes I stare at Dario.My heart drops seeing him here "what a
"And find the place where every single thing you see tells you to stay"~ Seeker Salvatore shifted me back to our bedroom, even though I didn't wanted to be here but he isn't in the mood to listen to me.He assigned 2 maids for my assistance, even though I am perfectly capable of moving and doing my own work.He left saying he'll be back after an hour, I took this time to lay on the bed and ponder over what just happened, I gently put my hand over my stomach and rub it.Ofcourse this had to happen, considering the amount of love making we were doing.I sigh leaning against the headboard, what do I do now? Salvatore will never let me go now.Half an hour later the door to opens, I glance at that direction, a small head of brown curly hair peeks inside the room, I sit up straight."Who is it?" I ask tilting to have better look, with shy steps a small boy enters inside the bedroom followed by Salvatore.The boy is clutching tight on his pointer finger with his small hands, my heart melt
"Being negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult"~ Unknown "Come stai mamma?" (How are you mama?) I ask clutching the phone tightly, I hear a sigh of relief from the other side."Molto meglio ora il mio raggio di sole" (Much better now my sunshine) her voice trembles with emotions, I make my way towards the bed and sit down, Salvatore gave me his phone so I can talk to my family.He informed me that mama has been sick since I was taken away, even after she got to know that I am free of all the accusations her health still hasn't gotten any better."Mamma..""Ascoltami Daisy" (Listen to me Daisy) she speaks in a stern voice making me remember my childhood when I used to sneak out with Dario and when I got back home she would use this exact stern voice at me but papa saved me everytime."Voglio che tu esca da quel posto il prima possibile" (I want you to get out of that place as soon as possible) she says worriedly, my eyes instantly shift towards the closed door of my be
"The silence left by loss is as loud as a thousand voices raised to the sky in pain" ~ Edward Lee "..... and I peed myself" I say with a fake crying face, Ray bursts into a fit of laughter. A small smile makes it's way to my lips. She's finally distracted, I'm glad my silly childhood stories could take her mind off Dario. She was upset after he left ignoring her completely. We were sharing our most embarrassing moments, Ray continues with one of her own but gets startled as the bedroom door is pushed open and loudly bangs on the side wall. I'm suprised it didn't fall from it's hinges. Both Ray and I stare in horror as madam Guilia enters my room with her guards and the palace doctor tailing her. "Tu puttana!" (You whore!) She screams charging at me. Instinctively I crawl back, Ray stands infront of me, blocking madam Guilia. The doctor is fast to grab on madam's upper arm "signora, per favore si calmi" (madam, please calm down) she says gritting her teeth as she tri
"The truth is, some people will never know you, and utterly hate you for who they think you are"~ Samantha King Holmes"Daisy.."Salvatore calls for me from the other side of the bathroom door. I don't respond.I have locked myself inside for the past few hours, just sitting on the closed toilet seat, staring into nothingness.After the doctor left, Ray rushed to inform Salvatore. I didn't wait for him. "Amore mio.. Cuore mio... mi dispiace" (My love.. My heart... I'm sorry) he expresses his regret in a broken voice. I shut my eyes close. "Daisy, I'll have to break this door if you don't open it now" I sense a hint of tiredness in his voice.It's been hours since he's been trying to reach out to me, but I have completely blocked him.He has been apologising profusely, he told me how Senior Capo sent him to check on an important shipment and ordered for the test behind his back.He promised to take me away from here, he says he now understands what I meant.I wish he understood it
"A storyteller makes up things to help other people, a liar makes up things to help himself"~ Daniel Wallace"N-No" I stutter out the words in pure disbelief. Salvatore's hard stare pins me down, questioning me.Don't look at me like that, please. I request through my eyes."What more proof do you want son? I knew my intuition can never be wrong" Senior Capo speaks, pleased by himself that he is proven right."You know this is a lie" I whisper. My eyes frantically searching for him despite him standing infront of me.Salvatore doesn't respond, I can see the doubt creeping in, like a fire engulfing a forest in it's blazing flames. "This is your love for your brother?" Madam Guilia snickers coldly."You were abandoning your brother's child, your own blood for someone else's dirty blood" her nostrils flare with each word."You're a liar Salvatore! You never loved him, he was just a mean of convenience for you, you knew how much he adored you, he always protected you from everything! Y
"Out of all my sins, you're my favourite"~UnknownNo.I cannot let Dario ruin me! His lie is going to cost me everything that I hold dear to me.Salvatore, how can he trust Dario over the woman he claims to love?And Ray.. she's misunderstanding me!Salvatore broke me, the doubt and mistrust in his eyes spoke volumes. I'm not taking him back now, I'll prove my innocence and leave this place for good.I clench my fists and march towards Salvatore's office, ready to fight fot my innocence, a maid stops me midway. "Capo is not in his office" she says, hurriedly stepping infront of me. I give her a questioning look, but he just said that he was heading there with Dario."He's upstairs in his brother's room" she points towards the stairs. I don't give it much thought and turn my direction. My only goal is to leave this palace, each second is suffocating me.I finally reach Giovanni's room, I push open the door. It's cold inside, no one has occupied this room since he passed away.Surpri
"Brave women are not born from comfort zones, they are made in the fire."~ Cheryl Hale"Hurry up!" The angry old driver yells at the poor girls as they climb the trash looking bus.I follow behind the girls and enter the bus, if I said that the outside was trash looking than the inside is a shame to trash.Well what can be expected from the mafia, they won't provide luxurious buses for their new batch of maids.I find an empty seat in the third row, I hurriedly run and take my place beside the window, I desperately need ventilation for this trip or I'll pass out.Did someone die in here? The bus smells like something has been rotting in here for years.I try my best not to show my discomfort on my face but I can't help it.Soon the bus is filled, another girl has taken a seat beside me. I didn't pay much attention to her as I was gawking outside the window at the guards who were discussing something with the old irritated driver.Few more minutes pass than the driver enters the bus,

"Value your peace more than people's opinions"~ Rithvik Singh"Where are you taking me?" I question as I notice the familiar path leading towards his room, "our room" he answers in a tired voice, I stop instantly, noticing my lack of movement he turns back gazing at me confused."I'm not going there" I say firmly, he sighs remembering my previous words, "I apologized Daisy, please come with me" he requests, I shake my head staying firm to my words."I hope you get a good night sleep, goodbye" I turn around towards the stairs, I can feel his intense gaze boring holes in my back but I ignore it.I return back to the back garden back to my secret corner, I notice few sheers layed on the grass, away from Sophia's grave, two bags sitting beside the sheets, one full of clothes ans the other with fruits and water bottles.I smile gratefully "Ray" I whisper looking up at the sky, she's the best.I chnage into a light material sundress behind a tree and make my way towards my sheet bed, I not
