The Mafia's Captive

When I opened my eyes , it was about 12:30 noon , I overslept, i tried to get up and an incredible pain hit my head , i drank too much yesterday i
didn't even remember how did i got here

I finally managed to walk to the bathroom without falling , i washed my face and teeth and went downstairs , Bobby suggested he makes me breakfast and i agreed

                               𖣔𖣔𖣔𖣔𖣔𖣔𖣔

After breakfast i walked around the house and no one was here

Of course they're not , they're busy , do they ever get rest ?

As i was wandering i heard some noises from a room whose door was closed , out of curiosity I opened it , it was the gym

My eyes captured Chase training with a punching bag , he was wearing nothing but shorts and gloves , his body was covered in sweat , highlighting his muscles

I didn't remember him coming back last night

He stopped punching when he spotted me , i waved at him and he smiled before walking over to me

" morning " he said " morning " I replied

" I'm sorry I didn't mean to interrupt " i told him before he shake his head " you interrupted nothing " he said again with a smile

Is it just me or was he too optimistic today ?

Suddenly , a crazy stupid idea came across my mind , i always admired the boxing sport , i tried to convince my father to let me join a boxing club but he would always say that boxing is an ugly sport for girls and it is only for boys

" hey ... can i train too ? When you're not here of course , I don't wanna disturb you ?" I briefly asked

Maybe if i trained hard i'd be able to escape next time

He looked at me with confusion" are we not gonna talk about last night ?" He asked

I looked at him baffled "why .... What happened last night ?"

" you... got drunk and -" he said right before i gasped

" you were there ? Oh my god ! This is so embarrassing " I exclaimed as i turned around with my hands on my face

" that's not important, what's important is-" he tried to speak again before i stopped him " hold on ! Was it you who took me to bed ?" I asked

He gazed at me before nodding and i sighed
" shit , I didn't want you to see me like that " i told him and he smiled " i didn't mind , i think ... you were more alive than ever " he told me

I laughed at his comment " wait ... what were you gonna say before i interrupted you ?" I asked him

He looked at me silently before he finally spoke
" nothing ...Important " ." Oh ... I see, hope I didn't say something mean " i said

" no ..no you didn't " he affirmed " you said you wanted to train ?" He added and i nodded
" boxing" i focused on the word

" alright .. show me how it's done " he commanded and i looked at him surprised

" what .. now ? " i stumbled

" just show me the stand , and your punches " he told me , i gulped and nodded at him

I took my position in front of the punching bag , bringing my fists to my chest , i took a deep breath and applied the first punch

I heard him laugh and I turned to glare at him
" unlike you I've never punched a bag before okay ? " i said, annoyed before i turned to leave but he grabbed me from my arm

" hey hey , I'm sorry , let me teach you "
he offered, gazing at my eyes ."no thanks " i teased and he chuckled

" go change , there are some Valerie's clean clothes in that room " he pointed at a small door that was in the gym , i nodded at him before i walked to it

I couldn't believe she didn't remember confessing her feelings to me and our kiss

Our fucking kiss

But from the other side , it was a good thing , I didn't want her to get attached to me , I didn't want to involve her in my world more than she was now

I didn't want her to love me , but still .. how could she deny it ?

I spotted Eda walking out of the dressing room , all dressed in training clothes

Gosh she looked gorgeous

EDA ' S OUTFIT

I went to one of the closet and brought gloves and Punching Target Pad , i handed the gloves to Eda and she put them on , while i put the pads

" first of all , you need to learn how to stand right" i said as i stood behind her , i guided her waist and showed her how to stand right on her feet , then i grabbed her arms and pulled them up in a fighting position

Then i stood in front of her , lifting the pads to her face " start , now " i told her and she did

She was stronger than she looked

" wow .. easy there " i said laughing

" no time for rest c'mon " she said again before throwing another punch and I quickly tackled it

" a little aggressive here are we ?" I teased her as she continued punching with all force

" you wanna know why I'm doing this ?" She asked between punches

" actually.. yes i do " i stated

" because i wanna escape as fast as i can " she admitted, i looked at her surprised and my smile dropped

" again ? I thought i warned you last time "
i glared at her

" and I thought i told you I don't give up easily"
She spouted and i smirked at her

" i would love to see you try , and fail " i told her

" no ! This time .. I won't fail ! You'll see " she assured , hitting me nonstop, i did some extra effort to tackle her

" i miss my dad , i miss my school , friends , everything, I'm so sick of this house , so sick of this situation!" She blurted punching even harder , i stopped dodging and brought her to my chest , with my arms wrapped around her

" hey hey hey ! Calm down !" I tried to calm her

What's gotten into her ? She was completely different from last night

We gazed at each other before she pulled from me and turned away , she took off her gloves and ran her hands from her face to her hair

Was she crying ?

I walked to her and touched her shoulder , she flinched and quickly turned to me

" are you okay ?" I asked her , she looked at me with anger

"How can i and you ruined my life , keeping me here , as if I don't have anything to do , as if I'm not human anymore " she snapped , almost tearing up right before she stormed out

If only things were different, if only i met her under different circumstances
