Chapter Four
Alicia
Immediately he left Malia walked in and dropped my outfit on the bed and walked out
I quickly took my bath and wore the Pet outfit
It looked so tight and showed all my shape
I hate this dress but I have no choice than to wear it
I wore a sandal that she brought in with the cloth and walked out
I met him coming down the stairs and I bowed
I felt his eyes on me as he walked out
I followed him and he entered a car
I entered another car and they drove out
We finally got to our destination and we got down
I walked to him and he turned to me
"if you want to leave this building alive do not talk to anyone and don't leave my presence"
"yes sir"
We walked into the building and I froze when I saw different men with guns
Some were smoking
Some were drinking
Some were kissing girls
Some pets like me were being harassed
I moved closer to my master and he looked at me
"am sorry sir but am scared"
He ignored me and he walked to a man with me following him behind
Men were starring at me which was making me really uncomfortable
"my man,how are you doing?"a guy said and shook hands with my master
He looked at me and licked his lips
Gross
"how much?"he asked referring to me
"she is not for sale"
"come on"the guy said and he glared at him
"come on"he said and I followed him
We got to a table and he turned to me
"sit"he ordered and I slowly sat down
"wait here,don't talk to anyone and don't go anywhere till I come back"I nodded and he walked away
I remained there and looked around
A man suddenly walked to me and I recognise him as the man that came to master's house yesterday
The man who was willing to buy me for a huge amount
"hey beautiful"he said and I ignored him
I don't want master to be mad at me again
"am talking to you pretty"
"please let me be"I said lowly and he chuckled
"one can not let a damsel like you be"he said and touched my hair
I stood up immediately feeling uncomfortable
He suddenly held my hand tightly and I flinched
"let go off me"I screamed and i felt someone pull me
it was master and he stood in front of me
"she said you should let her be"he said sternly and I flinched when he brought out a gun
He shot the man on his leg and he fell
"have warned you she is not for sale,if you need a pet go get yours,you know what happens when you dare me"he said angrily and held my hand
He pulled me out of the place and he pushed me into his car
He entered and started driving really fast
The speed was becoming too high and I screamed
"please slow down"I yelled and he increased the speed
Gosh why his he so mad?
Why does he get angry easily
I cried and covered my eyes
We are going to die
I don't want to die now
If he is ready then he should go
Am not ready
The car suddenly started slowing down and it finally stopped
I slowly removed my have from my face and looked at him
He was holding the steering and was breathing heavily
His hands were shaking and his veins were popping out
Why does he get this mad?
It's not normal
He suddenly hit the starring repeatedly and I cried in fear
He walked out of the car and slammed the door
I flinched and slowly got down
I walked to him and slowly held his hand
He pushed me off him and I fell
I stood up again and walked closer to him
i held his hand again and he felt so tensed
It's like something happened and he can't get over it
I sighed and slowly closed my eyes
.
Letting go of everything
That has ever had a hold on me
No more running when am scared
Running never gets me anywhere
I used to care but not it don't worth it
They don't want you to do better
They will get you down if you let them
Just remember no pain is forever
I know it's hard to forget how wrong they did you
All of the shit that you have been through
All of the fights you got into
Just remember that God is still with you
They wanna bring you down bring you down ooo
Life is one big fight.....
.
i finished the song again and he was calm
It works cause of the song
I slowly hugged him and he held my waist and hugged me tightly
"whatever it is that is bothering you,you have to let it go and focus on the future,life is one big fight,just relax and everything will be alright"I said and tried pulling away but he held me tightly
I sighed and wrapped my hands around his neck
After what seemed like minutes he let go off me and sighed
I smiled shyly as he starred me
I looked around our environment and it was very quiet
It's late already and the night is cold
I saw a hill and I turned to him
I slowly held his hand and pulled him
He walked with me and we climbed the hill
We sat down and watched the sun set
"sir"I called and he looked at me
"what's your name sir?"
"Vince"
"Vince"I repeated and smiled
Me being allergic to cold i started to feel weak and my body was turning pale
He looked at me and took off his jacket
He wrapped it around me and I smiled
I wore it properly and sighed in relief feeling warm
"thank you sir"he nodded and looked away
"what makes you so angry sir?"
"nothing"
"okay"
"did you go to high school?"he asked and I nodded
"although I only did half,I missed the last grade"
"okay"
l was kind of feeling weak and I placed my head on his shoulder
He didn't say anything and I sighed in relief
"Alicia"he called
"yes sir?"
"thank you"I smiled happily and looked at him surprised
"you are welcome sir"
He stood up and i also stood up
He jumped down the hill and he watched me as I climbed down slowly
I was about to fall and he quickly caught me by my waist
He helped me down and I smiled shyly
He let go off me and we entered the car
He started the car and drove normally this time
I sighed in relief and after what seemed like hours to me
We finally got home and I got down
We walked in and the maids and guards bowed when as he walked
It felt like they were bowing to me too
We finally got to the living room and he turned to me
"good night sir"I said as he was about to walk on the stairs
He paused and said nothing nor looked back
With that he walked upstairs and I shrugged
He just act so weird and different
This minute he is nice and the other he is cold
I wonder if he ever has a girlfriend
Wait why am I thinking about that?
I rolled my eyes and walked to my room
i entered and fell on the bed with a smile on my face
I giggled and suddenly smacked my self
Put yourself together Alicia
What is wrong with you?
Have you forgotten who you are in this house?
I was about to take off the tight cloth and remembered his jacket
I better go gift it to him
I took off the stupid Pet cloth and wore a comfortable gown
I took the jacket and walked out of my room
I climbed on the stairs slowly and held the jacket firmly
Wait why am I going to his room?
Maybe I should just give him tomorrow right?
Won't he be mad?
He might not be angry since he was in a good mood
i concluded and stopped having negative thoughts and head to his room
I knocked on the door and got no response
I paused and after a while I got a response
"who is it?"his deep voice asked
"Alicia"
"come in"
i walked in and the first thing that welcomed me was a choking smell
He is smoking again
"what is it?"he asked and I noticed he was standing by the window and starring out of it
"sir you forgot your jacket with me"
"keep it"he answered and turned to me
"thank you sir"I bowed and turned to leave but paused
Must he smoke?
It's really dangerous to his health
I took in a deep breath and walked to him
I stood in front of me and he starred at me confused
I collected it from him and killed the fire on the plate
"it's not good to smoke,it kills gradually sir,you are too young to let anything happen to you"I said and he just kept starring at me
He doesn't talk much
I smiled and turned to the door
"wait"he said and I stopped
"sit"
I slowly dropped the jacket and sat on the bed
He sat beside me and looked at me
He slowly removed the strand of hair on my face
"which school did you attend?"
"it's a public school sir,Bright High"
"you can go"I nodded and stood up
"Alicia"he called and I turned to him again
"don't forget your jacket"I smiled and took it
I bowed and walked out
I smiled and walked to my room happily
I entered and fell on my bed
I closed my eyes and fell asleep thinking about my moments with master Vince
.
THE NEXT MORNING
I woke up and looked at the window
The sun was shinning already
Shit I woke up late
I wonder what the time is?
I walked into the bathroom and took my bath
I was done and got dressed in a short that stopped below my knee and a top
I packed my hair and walked out
I walked to the living room and froze when I saw Carl and master Vince
"good morning sirs"i bowed and Carl chuckled
"it's afternoon already dear,guess you woke up late"Carl said and stood up walking towards me
"how are you?"
"am fine"
"good"he smiled and sat down
"Tinker bell you look pretty today"he said and I smiled
"thank you sir"
All this while Vince wasn't paying attention to us
I was about to walk away until he stopped me
"Alicia"he called
There is this way he calls my name that makes it roll off his tongue in a nice way
It sounds like melody to my ears
"yes sir?"
"you said you missed a grade in high school right?"
"yes sir"
"here is a new uniform,your school bag,a tablet,a phone,sneakers and everything you need,you are starting Prestige high tomorrow and your timetable is there already,don't wake up late so you won't be late to your first day at school"he said and dropped everything on the couch in front of me
I froze and starred at him shocked
Wait is he being serious right now?
Prestige high?
Have heard of that school
That is the best school in this country
I wasn't expecting this
Yes he asked about my education but I never knew he was planning this
My eyes was getting clouded with tears and I gasped
"thank you sir,thank you so so much,am really grateful thank you,thank you,thank you"I repeated continuously and Carl smiled
"thank you,thank you,thank you"
He turned to me with no expression and I wiped the tears that was falling
"you are welcome"he said plainly and walked up the stairs
Carl smiled and I turned to him
"you don't have to cry,am as surprised as you are"
"but I wasn't expecting this"
"yeah I know but just so you know for Vince to do this it means you are special"
