Leora wakes up with a slight headache. The drug took a lot of effects from her small body. It's a little bit strong for her.
The sun is already high in the sky. Besides her light headache, her body feels refreshed after a long night's sleep. She needs that sleep more than she thinks.
Leora searches for a place for her to pray. It's a part of her morning routine. She knows she doesn't have a private place to pray. So she doesn't have a choice to pick the bathroom. At least in there, she feels a little bit more private to pray.
She starts to pray in the unknown tongues, connecting her spirit with the Holy Spirit. She likes it when her negative emotions disappear in her prayers. She feels scared of the man, she doesn't know what to do. She worries about herself and her parents.
"Father, You know my heart. I don't want to hate that man. You teach me to love my enemies. I want to try to love him. I still feel scared, but I want to tell my soul that I don't have to be afraid. You always be with me, and You won't let anything bad happens to me.
I will try to help him as You want. I know You let this happened because You have plans for me and him. I need Your strength to help him, Father. Let Your will be done and not my will. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen."
She feels light after her prayer. She knows what to do now. She needs to help that man. She doesn't know his problems, but she knows he needs help. After all, kidnaping a girl that you like it's not normal at all.
Leora feels hungry now. She needs to go to the kitchen to prepare brunch to eat. Maybe she can cook for him too. She stands still in her bedroom door. She scares that the door is locked. She doesn't want to feel more like a prisoner here. She hesitantly tries to open the door. Slowly she turns the door handle and the door is open. She let out a relieved sigh when she out of the room.
She walks slowly in the long corridor. She finally can see the house completely. When he brought her in yesterday night, it's already dark and she can't see clearly. This house is so big and elegant. She always dreams of this kind of house when she's a little girl and still wants to be a princess in the story.
She walks to the end of the corridor and sees a big staircase. She walks down the staircase carefully and giggling on the way down. She feels like a princess walking down in the palace, she just lacks a beautiful gown to be the real one.
She continues her way down and searches for the food to eat. She finally found a dining room complete with various food on the table. She's too focused on the food and doesn't realize the man sitting at the head table.
He knows she will awake soon, so he starts telling the chefs to prepare a lot of food for their lunch. He knows despite her small body, she eats a lot of food. She needs to gain more weight, she is too thin to his liking. He needs to make his little girl being healthier, starting by getting her more food and make her work out with him every morning.
He can hear her light footsteps walking. He tells all the maids to go out. He doesn't want her to interact with others other than him. He needs a plan to make her obeys and depend on him and only him. He wants her to crave him the way he craves her.
She is surprised by a lot of delicious food on the table. She can feel her stomach starts to grumbling at the sight of the food. When she finishes ogling the food, she finally realizes the man stares at her with amusement eyes.
"Go..good morning, sir." She stutters.
"It's already afternoon little girl. You seem to have a good sleep, right bambina?" He says while staring at her timidness. The girl answers quietly with her head down.
He tells her to come closer with his fingers. She obeys and walks slowly closer to him. He hums delightedly and cups her face with his big hands. He starts stroking her rosy cheek.
"Una bella brava ragazza che ho." He speaks in his native tongue. She may be doesn't understand the words he speaks, but she still blushing with the intensity of his speaks. (a beautiful good girl that I have)
He let go of his arms and sit her in the chair next to his right. He starts to make the move to eat and eat his first bite. He stares at her, waiting for her first move.
She looks at him weirdly, usually, her father will start and lead the prayer before they eat. Maybe for this time, she needs to pray for both of them. She starts her prays a little bit loud so he can hear them. After the prayer, she peeks at him warily, she finds him looking at her amusedly. Her face reddened under his gaze.
She starts eating, starts with the sunny egg and bacon. When the rich flavor touches her taste buds, she moaning slowly and starts eating faster. She is hungry and the foods taste like heaven in her mouth. She's too concentrate on her food and doesn't realize his smiling form. He starts eating slowly while watching his girl eat. He feels satisfied when watching his girl eat a lot like that. He likes to take care of his bambina.
There's a knock in the dining room. He allows the man enters the room with a complaint in his heart. His right-hand man enters in a hurry. He seems to bring some bad news to the man.
"Non te l'avevo detto prima, non disturbarmi per una settimana!" The man says in a low dominant tone. She shivers with the anger in his voice. (Didn't I tell you before, don't bother me for a week)
"questo è il capo dell'emergenza, gli americani imbrogliano e rapiscono il nostro carico." The right-hand man says. He is sure that his boss will be angry and take care of these problems right away. (this is emergency boss, the Americans cheat and snatch our cargo)
"Fanculo, non è importante per me! È meglio che te ne occupi da solo." The man says angrily. (F*ck them, it's not important to me! You better take care of it on your own)
Why all his men are stupid. He already says to them, don't disturb his time with his bambina. He wants to truly focus on her adjustment here.
"Ma capo, questo è più importante di una ragazza." The right-hand-man tries to reasons with him. (But boss, this is more important than some girl)
He never sees his boss being attached to one girl like this. But he can say this woman is different than another. She seems to have innocent vibes within her. But still some bitch like her means nothing in their world. Women are just a plaything for men. They don't have a place in their world, especially someone as fragile and innocent as this girl.
The man can see the way his right-hand man looks down and eyeing his girl. He doesn't like it when someone looking down at what is his. His man is degrading her with the way he looks at her and it makes his blood boiling. He needs to make his man understand to never look down at someone that belongs to him.
"Leora go to your room." He says sternly while eyeing his man ferociously.
She can see the situation between the two men is getting worse. She knows the way the other man looking at her makes her man angry. She can feel that this man hates her and looking down at her. But she doesn't understand why he hates her like that when they just barely meet.
"Leora, now!" He shouts angrily for the first time at her.
The shouts wake her up from her dreaming state. She runs all her might out of the dining room before she closed the door, she can see her man strangle the other man and choke him. This sight makes her close the door loudly and run to her room with the tears of fear stream down through her cheeks.
