She helped me with my bag. "No dear, you can't sleep here.
My heart is already raising.
"You can come to my house Bella we're like family.
Huh, her house?! I never thought of going there.
"Yes Bella, come to live with us." He gave Me a.shiver with his words. He looks so happy that I want to live with them.
"OK madam. Till I get a place to stay, I'll be paying you little rent. It isn't good that I stay for free." I say. I dropped my stuffs by the corner of the room.
Evening, Bruno drove the family home with his bus.
I was given the room of Ariana and Lorenzo, they were going to sleep in Bruno's room.
Ariana didn't want to leave and I promised to share the room with her.
I unload all my things, I felt someone's eyes were on me. Bruno's...
He walked to me and sat on the bed. "Bella, I want you to know that my family and me will always be helpful to you OK."
I nod slightly. "Hmmn..." He got up and walked to the wardrobe, where I am. "Bella, sorry for what happened to your dad." He brought his lips closer and tried to kiss me.
This improvement is too fast. I remove my face "Bruno, now isn't the right time. Please..."
"Ok, sorry. Am so sorry Bella."
I packed my things quickly and walk out from the room to avoid him.
"Bella, come help me in the kitchen!" Madam Serena called.
"OK!" I went to her and helped her prepare dinner.
I closed my room after dinner and went to sleep with Ariana beside me. I'm so exhausted for a long day, so I want to sleep so badly.
I closed my eyes in deep sleep, I can feel cold hands placed on my body. Slowly going in my short... My short is being dragged down, I suddenly opened my eyes. 'Bruno!!' I realize Ariana is no longer in the room.
"Bru-" he held my mouth with his hands. He wants to rape me.
"Hu mm..." I struggled to speak.
He held my mouth with one hand and dragged my dress from my body with the other hand.
I bit his hand and yelled "help!!"
Zio and madam Serena's voice were loud from outside. "Bruno, open this door at once! Leave her Bruno!".
He still held me tightly, he started to kiss my bare shoulder after dragging my dress down to my breast.
Zio opened the door and madam Serena hit him with an umbrella... "You're a disgrace. You're a disgrace Bruno." She turned to me "Bella, are you alright?"
"...” I want to call names, but i can't speak. I dragged my dress to cover my body and ran out of the house crying.
I ran to the road side, And almost got run over by a car. I shifted to the other side of the road and sat on a cut log of wood.
The car revised to where I am. He opened the door. "Hey, what are you doing by the street?"
I didn't answer, he saw me leaving, why ask me stupid questions?
"Get in..." He said. I don't have to Go, where would he drop me...? Plus I almost got raped just now.
Just my bad luck.as I reject his offer, the rain started pouring heavily on my head. Lightening struck, made me so afraid. I still sit on the wood with my light dress, folding my arms around my chest, feeling cold. He sighed before coming out.
“Do you want to get in or should I carry you?"
I still pretended not to listen. He lifted me up and forced me in his car.
"Have no where to go, and you pretend like you're someone."
Ouch... That's hurtful.
Took of his jacket and threw it to me.
I sit numb in the car. I never liked Dad, but I also never knew he was my saving grace in the hands of Lisa.
I don't know where he was going but rather than been raped by Bruno or any other bad guy, I have no option.
He drove to his house and stopped the car. "Get down" he ordered coldly
I walked along with him with my shaky legs, I was feeling so cold
He touched the switch. All the light in the living room were on.
I still stood at the door.
"Hey, are you not going to come in?" He asked as he opened a bottle of alcohol. Drank a little before walking from me to The kitchen.
I sit on the couch, feeling a bit comfortable. The living room is so dirty. He brought me a cup of hot tea. "Have this".
"Lady, are you ready to speak? Why were you on the street?"
I didn't reply, I sipped the tea slowly, avoid his gaze. Mr Richard has a perfect body and could make any girl crush on him at a glance.
"Still having an attitude? Dude, I found you on the street, and you're fuckin' keeping quiet?!" He walked away in anger.

Chapter 10★★BELLA★★ He marched to his room. He looks scarier than Bruno, he's so huge, broad shoulder, Great arm, his abs I could see clearly from his shirt, he had long legs. I watched the window as the rain fell heavily, 'After the rain stops, where will I go?' These were my only thoughts... He came back with some blankets and a pair of clothes. "Hey, go have a bath then you can wear these." He said and dumped them on the chair. When I was ready, he led me to the bathroom. I took off my clothes and had a bath, even though it felt like someone was watching me the whole time. 'Calm Bella, it's just your stupid head trying to play a trick.' I consoled myself. The bathroom was better than the one I shared with Kelly, it gave me some sort of inner peace so I decided to stay for a little longer, letting the water calm my head down, my heart from racing. After bathing, I wore the shirt he gave me, I feel so cold even

★★BELLA★★ I looked at his wide shoulder, his ripped army colored sweater. Wait... Is that 'en' on his shoulder? Does he have a tattoo? 'Bella, you must be stupid, a lot of words end with 'en'.I turn to the bed and sleep. Morning time. I opened my eyes "ahh...! You startled me" I screamed. He squatted, staring at me. "Well, is this how long you sleep? You must be really lazy, I bet you're jobless" he said as he walked to the window. The day was so bright,the ray entered directly into my eyes. "Thank you for your hospitality, I'll be going now" I say. I got up, wrapped my hair into a bun. "You have to answer my questions. Number one, why were you on the streets last night?"&nb

★★BELLA★★ I can't speak, I did wrong, I disobeyed... But how can he aim so perfectly? "Why did you come in here?" He asked in a different tone. "I didn't mean to, I came to deliver you meal, I called you but you- you didn't answer..." He wiped his face and smiled like a psycho in his second personality "Oh..." He raised the gun up. "Don't be scared, this is fake. It's a toy".I don't buy that. Why would he be with a toy gun? He stretched his hand for the food. I gave It to him. As I walked out, I pulled the knife from the door and dropped it on the shelf. Slowly withdrew my hand to leave... "What is your name?" He asked calmly "Bella. My name is Bella." I feel like crying for no reason.

I start to think of Bella, I feel pity for her, just like me, she's alone in this world, but unlike me, she is a simple and nice little sport. I let her stay here because of pity. Play the record of her family: "Dad, dad sign, stop dragging the pen with Mom!" This was her sister's voice. "No, no, Lisa, you have used me all these years, I won't sign my wealth to you, what about my... What about my other daughter...???" "Edward, we have to secure our childrens future first, sign..." "Sign This Eddy! Don't be stubborn" they were struggling, she hit his head with something. I don't know how he died but I heard his daughter screaming. This naïve girl never ask

★★JAYDEN★★ "Don't drink this, I won't be there if you choke...!" I collected the drink from her. She was coughing a lot. She rested her head on my lap. "Mr Richard, you talk... I'll listen." "Don't call me mister, Richard is OK." I sigh before starting. "All my life, I've always been the rebellious one, the goat of the family. I had this dream, to be seated with my father and other men, to talk if business, not to stand beside him while he talks." "It's bad to want to start from the top I know, but it's my habit, I don't need help from anyone, I want to be my own boss, with other bosses not to learn and be nurtured under them. I don't need recommendation from my father!" She was singing " twinkle... Twinkle star... No, twinkle, twinkle little star." With a different voice.

I let the water pour on her, I'm so good at taking care of people. After pouring her water, I drag her to the room... "Bella, you wanna play a game?" She covered her eyes, feeling shy "Yes..." "Ok... then join your hands together" I nod my head as she did. I collected a the curtain rope and wrap her handed together, covered her with a blanket so she doesn't feel cold. "Bella, count 1 to 400, if I come here and you're still awake, I'll bite you. Count now..." I say and closed the door. My mom was still on... "Mom, pls, don't ask me about her...!" &n

"My life isn't, I'm happy alone, I'm tough and I love this loneliness I feel". "Oh really?" He nod his head slowly. "How tough are you?" "I can take anything." I boldly say... "I have a task for you, since your tough and fearless" "What is it?" I asked. He leaned closer to me, and say lowly "don't be in a hush, you have to help me receive something". "Bella, if you do this right, I'll pay your share of the month's rent" he say. "Tell me what to do?" I say without hesitance. "At five

★★JAYDEN★★I Stood beside my father's bed as the doctor, who was called over spoke. "Madam," he started, looking directly at my mother who's eyes were teary. "He is paralyzed I'm afraid to say. I think he was poisoned, not in the last two days though, like a slow poison. Although i tried to detect the actual poison used, but it's a smart case, the person was so wise not to let him get to this state in a week or two." He sighed, wiped his face with his hand out of frustration as he was also confused. "I think it's the work of some sort of poison, since he never reacted earlier to this poison, it was impossible detecting it I'm sorry. You'll have to take him to Japan for treatment, some local temple i will direct, this poison is spreading slowly, but destroying more" he continued.I looked at my helpless father on the bed, his mouth is twisted, like one part is toothless, his neck bent to the side, he can only rotate his eyeballs in fear.

This is the first true love I feel i ever have, Jayden just have to surrender for my sake, we're brothers. I sigh in frustration still looking at the door she went through when someone stood in front of me, blocking my views. "I never knew you will be so disgusting someday."

★★BELLA★★ I Laid so frustrated on the bed, since the past two days Jayden left, no calls, neither have I heard from him. "Aish...!!!" I used my feet to jam the bed for the 6th time this evening. I think this to the only thing that can keep me sane, with the fact of me been damn frustrated.The door opened with him standing exhausted and leaned his hand on the door knob."I'm back." He smiled. Now's not a good time to vent my anger on him even though I really want to. I turned my face to the other side of the bed to hide my angry face. I could here his footstep as he approach me, I feel the heat from him as he leaned closer and whispered, "why are you not responding?""I'm sleeping Mr, have some respect." I replied then he burst out in laughter, "hahaha, you're asleep and dare to reply? You crazy spot." He tried to rub his palm on my hair but I hold him in mid air.

I called his name more than once, he did not reply. "Jayden?!" I called again, and still no reply from him, i decided to check the other rooms. Another room was opened half way through, I peeped through the open space, he was arranging his clothes in a bag"Where are you going?" I asked him with the most disappointing voice."Bella, you're awake?" He brought his lips closer to kiss my cheek, I shifted my face away from his reach. "Where at you off to?

I don't think it's alright to go inside, that woman in there, she doesn't like me. I've taken a nap twice, still the evening is taking so long to get here. I continued to swing my legs with hope that Jayden will come back and find me here. I lost my phone with all the tension. "Bella?" A sudden call of my name. I turned to see who it was. It's Gabriel.
