Tiffany's Desire 146
I sat down quietly on the bed and used my hands to wedge my head. There was so man things going through my head and I couldn’t even think straight. I was thinking of how to get away, what to do and just how to survive another minute in this place. I yawned loudly not because I was sleepy or maybe I was, but the major thing was that I was feeling so hungry.With each yawn, I just got closer to running crazy and I couldn’t even help myself. The door squeaked open and a man walked inside. I turned in his direction immediately and the first thing I noticed was how huge he looked. Fuck, his cologne was horrible and it made me feel nauseous. “Here you go,” he said and pushed a tray of food toward me. I looked at him and he had a stern expression on his face. “You either take it or starve to death.”That was harsh as hell but I tried to act normal and not yell at his face for being a dick. I swallowed the lump in my throat.I had no idea what he even brought but I took it from him. “Than

I stood in the middle of the room like a toy waiting to be bought by a child. My hands were folded forward in anticipation, perhaps I was going somewhere. The door opened to reveal Gladys stepping into the room with a laptop. Right, Massimo. "Ouu, pretty in captivity," she remarked in a voice that failed to match the sweetness of her voice and a not so sweet smile on her face. "Take a seat," she ordered sharply and then opened the laptop. It was connecting to a video call and I could see myself through the screen. I looked stunning really, she must be so jealous."Connected." Immediately Massimo's face came up on the screen, he wasn't looking so good. I could spot wrinkles and some little scars on his face surprisingly, perhaps it was because there was a time I couldn't go a day without staring at his face. Now I absolutely loathed him. Sitting still in the chair with my hands in the middle of my legs, I refused to speak up until he noticed me. The reaction I expected was definite
Tiffany's Desire 148
My weary and hungry eyes was fixed on the tray of food placed before me. The tantalizing aroma of the meal wafted through the air, filling my nostrils and stirring my empty stomach. Hunger gnawed at me irrationally, reminding me that I haadn't eaten since yesterday afternoon when I had last spoken to Massimo. The food before me was a plate of unappetizing colors and textures. A hot lump of potatoes sat next to a piece of steamed broccoli, while a slab of overcooked and garnished chicken laid forlornly on the side. My hunger fought against my reluctance to consume such dish, but I knew I needed to nourish myself or I would die of starvation, it's almost ten and my rumbling stomach might burst soon.Reluctantly, I picked up the fork and began examining the chicken in particular. It looked so golden and full. I had taken one big bite when the door creak and the devil who kept me here came in.I looked up, my gaze meeting the chilling eyes of my unwelcomed visitor and former best frie

LUCIANO'S POVI opened my eyes gently and a frown immediately formed on my face when I realized I was in a strange room.The room had mats on the wall which looked really weird. There was one ceiling fan but it wasn’t working. The paint was old and from the corners, I could see cobwebs. There was nothing modern about the room and it had this smell—like a place that’s been abandoned. Every other thing looked strange but what was worse was how strange I felt. I looked around and then I started feeling pains on different parts of my body. I growled loudly as I tried to sit up. My eyes fell to my hands and saw that I was on drip. I growled again and took off the needle from my hand. I tossed it to the floor and stood to my feet. I staggered at first but I sniffed out whatever was in my nostrils. I really couldn’t imagine who could be living in a place this wretched and barely well kept. I looked at my hand where I removed the needle from and there was a little blood welling there. I ig

I woke up and yawned lazily as I used my hand to cover my face. I sat up and tried to stand up. Selena was right about feeling better. Whatever she gave me made me feel less pain and a little better. My feet touched the floor and I slid my legs into my slippers there. I stood up and walked to the sitting room. I could hear voices but I couldn’t exactly guess who was talking or what was being said. As I got closer, the voices became clearer but the conversation wasn’t understandable yet.“I don’t think that will work,” Selena said. “But we can at least try.”“I’m sticking with the first.”I walked closer to them. “Am I missing out on something?”They both went mute and looked at me.“Boss man,” Brad greeted and Selena looked at me. Selena was having a conversation with Brad and I couldn’t exactly tell what it was. “Boss man?” she asked with a brow raised. “Are you rich or something?”“No,” I responded hastily. “I’m not rich. Brad here is my close friend and uh—we’ve known for a lo

The call ended in my ear and I just swallowed hard. I couldn't exactly tell what my father felt as he spoke to me but my heart kept beating so fast.I shoved the phone back into my pocket and shut my eyes for a second. I gave an audible sigh and then looked back.I walked back to the dining table where Selena and Brad sat. I took the free chair an sat down quietly. I picked up the fork and placed it on the food. I took the first spoon and that was all I took in ten minutes. I kept using the fork to form circles on the plate.Selena looked at me and I could tell what was going through her mind. She finished chewing the food in her mouth and looked at me. "Why are you not eating?" She asked. "What's wrong?"I looked at the plate of food and then back at her. "I don't like veggies," I managed to blurt out.She dropped her fork on the table and reached for a glass of water. She raised it to her lips and responded to me. "No one does."She took a sip and dropped the table. "You either ea

I sat down calmly on the bed as Selena undressed the bandage. She dipped the cotton wool into methylated spirit and then used it on me.She used it on my body in circles and then waited for a moment before pouring some powdered medicine into my injury.I growled and then remained calm as she took a new bandage and wrapped me. I tried not to let the pain show but grunts escaped my lips.She used a towel to clean off the water from my hands and then gently squeezed the water from the towel.She placed it on my stomach and then allowed it to stay there for a moment."I'll be easy," she said when she noticed that I was in so much pains with the way she was trying the hand and using the bandage on me.She tied it again, this time tighter but I didn't growl or flinch this time around. It get like the first bandage already took the pains away.She exhaled and then turned to the table beside her. She took the drugs and handed it over to me."Here, take this," she said and then handed a glass
Tiffany's Desire 153
I watched the boy tear the nylon and stuffed the whole pancake into his mouth. He ate it hungrily and then looked at me with a wide smile."How about making millions?" He asked and stuffed another pancake into his mouth.He was so excited to ask me questions about money and I had no idea why he was all excited about it."Tell me," he said looking at me. "How do I make such millions in few days?""Few days?" I scoffed. Who the hell makes so much money in few days of starting a business?I knew I wasn't so much older than him— but I tried to brush that off and act more matured. I barely talked until it was needed and when I did, it was just some words or blatant rhetorical questions.That was how I aimed at achieving the matured look. By not talking unnecessarily and giving every word time before saying it.I swallowed the lump in my throat and remained calm but images of the whole incident filled my head.How Massimo stabbed me mercilessly and how I growled in pains but the only thin
