Rosa leaves me to settle in a guest room,cause they already brought in my clothes. So I'm gonna have to live here.
'im guessing this was Father's idea'
The room is grey and white , A simple color,that I'm guessing Lorenzo picked out,his personality didn't really give off a colorful kind of guy .
There was a king sized bed and every where had this luxurious look to it totally not my style .
I turn towards the bathroom and of course it's luxurious too ,I get into the shower and wash my hair with a random shampoo bottle .
_______
After a few minutes I get out and dry my hair .
I go towards the box where my luggage is and I pick out some shorts and a Hoodie cause it was Freezing in here .
I then proceed to snoop around to check if the room was bugged,it was kind of a habit I had picked up since I was little considering I was in the mafia.
After I'm sure it's fine I sit down on the soft bed and immediately lay down on it .
I close my eyes for awhile until just then it hits me,My pendant "shit"I cuss out as I shoot up from the bed and sprint out of the room ,down the stairs to the living room were I see Lorenzo watching some movie.
"Lorenzo I need you to take me to my house " I pant as he looks at me and rolls his eyes "Princessa do you really want to run away from me that badly".
"Believe me I rather be anywhere else but now is not the time-"I pause when I notice him staring at my exposed legs thanks to these shorts that where a little too short .
I snap my fingers "Listen"and he looks back up at me with a smirk.
"I need to get something from my house it's really important"I say anxiously,He stares at me for a while and then sighs "Whatever let's go "
He stands up and I can't help but stare at him .He was still in his black dress shirt but a few buttons were open exposing his broad chest causing me to subconsciously stare for a little longer.
"Are we gonna leave or are you going to keep ogling"He gazes down at me .
"I wasn't ogling"I scoff as i step out the door and go outside and he does the same as he walks ahead of me and i can barely catch up .
"Damn your long legs"I mutter as i silently started glaring at his legs, which I guess he noticed cause he suddenly turned around "not my fault your legs are too damn short "He shrugs as he sizes me up looking me up and down and his eyes fall on my tits.
"Are you gonna stand there or are you gonna keep ogling"I sneer using his words against him and he rolls his eyes and keeps walking.
I see a few guards standing at their posts ,They turn to me and their eyes trail down to my legs and I roll my eyes .
'geez is everyone here a horn-dog'
They immediately look away when I glare at them and make a silent slit demonstration with my neck .
I catch up with Lorenzo and he leads me to where he keeps his cars and that's when my eye catches the sight of a motorcycle and not just any motorcycle it's a freaking Harley Davidson low rider. I whistle when I see it and I can barely hide my excitement,I've always wanted one of these.
I turn around to see Lorenzo staring at me with a slightly amused face "What??"I question ,he just shrugs and goes into one of the cars and my face immediately falls but i keep a straight face and get in the passenger seat and we drive out.
________
The drive there is pretty quiet ,I lean towards the window and rest my head ,I look outside at the bustling city lights and cars driving by ,I tilt my head a little and stare at Lorenzo as he drives with a straight face.
I look away and think to myself .
A little while later we get to my house and immediately I get out of the car and turn to Lorenzo "I'll be right back just stay in the car"He just nods without looking at me and brings out a cigarette and put it in his mouth .
As I reach the front door,I take a deep breath and knock ,the door opens and fortunately it's a maid that lets me in,I walk in and luckily no one is downstairs,I quietly go upstairs and turn to my room and as I open the door I'm met with....Sophia putting on the FUCKING pendant.
"What the hell!!"I yell as Sophia turns around in fear but calms down when she sees it's me"oh your back I'm guessing Lorenzo already kicked you out"She smirks at me and proceeds to walk away but I grabbed her arm and she shrieked in pain , causing Nicole to come inside.
"What's going on here??, Cecilia why are you here and why are you holding her like that"Nicole glares at me .
" Why don't your precious daughter explain to you why the fuck is she stealing my pendant "I shout as I tighten my grip on her.Causing her to burst in tears "I wasn't stealing I just wanted to have something to remember you by, since you would be gone for so long" She sniffles as I scoff and snatch the pendant from her and shove her to her mother.
"Get out of my house why must you treat your sister so terribly when all she wanted to remember you by was a measly ugly pendant of yours,your just like your mother such a terrible person"
Nicole yells and I immediately get pissed and I chuckle darkly"how many times do you need a fucking reminder that this is not your damn house ? and I'll be damned if I ever let you talk shit about my mother unless you want me to sew your FUCKING mouth shut!!!!"I scoff when she cowers back and I walk out of the house pissed as hell.

Lorenzo's pov
I see her walking towards the car and she looks angrier than usual. She gets in and slams the car door and puts her face in her hand as she groans and sighs .
I just stare at her in slight confusion
,Ever since I saw her again I knew I wasn't going to let her go that damn easily that's why I chose her ,but she doesn't seem to remember me though.
That's good that will make what I have planned even better.
She looks up at me and growls "What",I smirk at her feisty attitude,My eyes couldn't help but fall at her long legs and She just rolls her eyes and tells me to drive as she rubs her temples and rest her head looking out the window.
______
After a while we get there and she gets out and mutters a thanks and goes up the stairs ,A few minutes later I go upstairs and don't find her in her room,I go in my room and take a shower.
CECILIA'S POV
____TRIGGER WARNING:SELF HARM____
I stand at the balcony as i clutch my pendant,the last gift my mother gave to me before she disappeared,I closed my eyes as I dug the razor deeper specifically on my thigh .
'it was easier for me to hide it ,to avoid mistakes like last time'
I couldn't help it ,I tried to stop but I couldn't I would always relapse ,it had always been a problem ,I would cut myself as a means of escape,it was what I used to numb the hurting ,the memories ,the pain ,the torture just because I wanted my mother back.
Pain flashed through my eyes as a horrid memory came up and I immediately made another cut .
This was what kept me numb it was the only way i could feel numb from the pain ,the hurt of not knowing where my mother was whether she was dead or alive hurt me deeply than any razor could.
But no matter how many times I cut myself I still felt empty 'why',I thought as my throat felt dry and I couldn't help but let a tear roll down my cheek and I immediately cleaned it I hated crying, When I cried it just made it worst .
After a while I fall on the floor and before I knew it I fell asleep.
______
I sit up from shock of the nightmare I just had ,I look around the unfamiliar room and calm down when I realize where I am ,I thought I fell asleep on the balcony who brought me here, that's when I turn around to see a sleeping Lorenzo on the bed.
'was he the one who brought me here 'I thought as I felt a unexplainable feeling in my stomach 'what is wrong with me' I shake my head and move to stand up from the bed when I feel someone grab my arm,I turn to face the Grey eyes of Lorenzo as he stares deeply at me.
I look back at him and try not to hiss knowing he was gripping on the healing cut I had made two days ago,"take a picture it'll last longer,"I snicker as I pull my arm away and sit on the couch in his room .
I bring out my phone and check the time.its 3am ,I want to text Zoey but then I remember she has a mission today ,I look up from my phone to see Lorenzo still staring at me , I'm about to say something when my stomach grumbles and I pray Lorenzo didn't hear that but of course he did.
"Your hungry "He states "well no shit Sherlock ,why else would my damn stomach be growling "I roll my eyes and walk out of the room and Lorenzo follows me.
I go to the kitchen and I immediately start craving for pancakes and look around for the pancake mix.
'what ? pancakes taste great in the night'
"Where's the damn pancake mix"I grumble to myself .
"In that top shelf right there"I turn around to see Lorenzo leaning on the counter as he points at the top shelf and I look up.
' how the hell am I supposed to reach up there '
I try stretching to reach the cabinet ,but I'm taken by surprise when I'm being lifted up ,I open the cabinet and bring out the pancake mix.
" Put me down now"I demand and he scoffs and places me gently and folds his arms as he goes back to leaning on the counter as he uses his phone.
"You didn't have to carry me I could've gotten it myself" I voice out as I make the pancakes.
"Yes princessa im sure you could've reached all the way up there with your 4ft 11 ass "He sneers "I'm 5ft not 4'11 "i counter and he jeers "alright your the tallest in the world "he grins at me and i scoff and focus on the pancakes and after a while it's all done .
Just as I put it in a plate Lorenzo suddenly takes out two from my stack of pancakes and starts eating and walks away"Goodnight princessa Thanks for the pancakes",
"Jackass "I yell and I hear him chuckle from upstairs bringing a unconscious small smile to my face.
'Little pancake thief'
