Her fist raised to his head stopped and stared, he said nothing and instead opened the car door and she too silently got up and sat in the car the whole journey no one said a word until they went inside the house Mr Amani's deep voice broke the silence.
"Did you hurt yourself?"
"No".
With that unresponsive reply she was going to walk away, she wanted to rid herself of the blood on the new clothes that he brought her.
After her bath she put on her black shirt and wine red shorts, and went downstairs Mr Amani was nowhere to be seen, she was hungry so she walked in the kitchen and looked at his fridge there wasn't much to eat but she made do with what was there.
Whilst she was busy in the kitchen Mr Amani had just finished his bath, as usual in his glowing white shirt with a few buttons open and a deep black trousers, saw her focused cooking he quietly sat down in the dark but warm kitchen and watched her. Eleonora who had no idea he was behind her finished up cooking and started looking for the plates
"It's in the bottom left drawer".
She jumped and spun around, what was he doing there? She could have sworn he wasn't home but she didn't say anything and instead got the plates since he was here she would have to feed him right?
She set out two plates and began to eat, this silence had become annoying she looked at him eagerly did he like the food? So many questions but the silence remained.
"Why are you staring at me like that? Do you have something to say?"
"Just wondering if you enjoyed it".
"Yes it was delicious, let me clean up the plates".
He liked it for some reason she felt happy, no snap out of it Eleanora couldn't fall for his rubbish not to mention he's not even who he says he, is for all she knew he could be a murderous gangster, she sat on the plush modern sofa lost in thought.
"I'm leaving for a bit you can rest in my room if you want".
Where was he going at this time of night? Forget it, don't bother, just sleep, but she couldn't instead she followed him, disguising herself as a man she wrapped her chest in bandages and buttoned up her shiny white shirt, trousers and a thin jacket, she found a mask in the cabinet drawer and a camera she picked up from Mr Amani's room it looked expensive. She looked for him in the garage and just as he went into the car, she hid in the boot of his car the journey was long it was hot stuffy and dark in the boot until, it came to a sudden stop and he walked away somewhere she couldn't see after hearing the door open and close
She slowly lurked out of the boot, it looked like an abandoned city was there ever a place like that here she needed to get clear pictures, so she decided to move to higher ground the top of some old building, she ran up the creaky stairs and opens the top floor she could see the whole city from here it looked beautiful, there she saw him at this point he truly looked like some rich mafia leader, his slicked back hair and the rich three piece suit and the cigar in his hand, but that's ridiculous no way a teacher would be that dangerous.
He was having a conversation with someone but his back was facing to her a slender but strong build in a similar style to Mr Amani.
*click*
*click*
No she could have sworn Mr Amani looked straight at the camera, was she seeing things? How could he have known she was standing here from that distance, he looked up again this time longer straight into her eyes, shit she was discovered she put the camera around her neck and was about to run back down the stairs when she heard them.
"Quick boss said don't let him escape"
no, no ,no, where was she going to run, she ran towards the edge of the building it wasn't a huge gap she could make this distance, she was hesitating a single miss step could be her death.
*BANG*
"There he is get him"
Oh well too late, she leaped over and just grabbed the building with her hands her heart was in a panic, she pulled herself up and went down those stairs as fast as she could, damn it why were these stairs so long but it didn't matter how fast she ran, they were waiting at the entrance of the building her heart stopped she was caught who even were these men that were so intent on chasing her the, one with ginger hair came forward and sent Eleonora asleep.
By the time she woke up she was in a car between two men, with her eyes blindfolded and her hands tied together with rope the car halted, and one of the men pick her up and continued walking she had no idea where she was she was put on a cold hard floor one of the men spoke.
"Who are you? Why were you stalking our boss?"
"Your boss?"
"Yes hurry up if you're lucky we'll keep a limb intact"
"..."
"Still won't talk huh? maybe this will help"
He pulled out a knife and touched her face, the cold smooth dagger that could cut through her throat at any minute.
"Wait I don't know anything I'm really not lying"
"Really then why do you have bosses pictures on this camera of a secret meeting, were you going to sell them?"
"What your boss? no I'm not doing anything with the photos"
SLAP
"I won't ask you again tell me why you have photos of our boss"
Eleonora was thinking really hard about how to get herself out of this situation it seems he really was some mafia leader she could get out of the ropes but it's unlikely she'll win against their guns how could she escape.
