Alice

CHAPTER 3

ISSAC ROMANO

Its been a few hours since Igor left and the girl is still unconscious.

I have been staring at her but there is no movement at this rate I am scared whether the girl is still alive or not.

The girl stirred awake. 

"Hey are you fine" I asked

She didn't reply

I asked again 

No reply 

I tried to talk to her but she didn't even look at me. As if she could not hear my voice.

'How long was she here to be in this state' 

I just sat there hoping this little girl would react sometime soon.

A few minutes later she looked here and there.

I tried to speak to her but there was no reply again.

But when she saw me. My heart broke. It was her. My baby sister. 

She went to the corner of the room and kept her head at her knees and started shaking.

There were only a few people with those beautiful eyes. And I couldn't not recognize my sorella's eyes.

I wanted to hug her. I wanted to speak to her. 

I tried to speak.

But still there was no response. 

Then I focused on the ropes of my hands to be free from these stupid ropes and near my Sorella.

A few minutes later I was free from the ropes after all I was training. It worked I was happy that my training was helpful.

After a few moments I went closer to her slowly so that she would not be frightened by the closeness.

As soon as I was closer to her I heard counting. 

She was counting numbers.

I just stared at her I didn't move my eyes.... Suddenly she stopped and looked at me.

She indicated to me 'to keep quiet' 

Then she did it again... 

I didn't understand what is going on.

The door opened and came in few guards. They saw that I was out of the ropes.

"Oh I see you managed to get out of the ropes" a guard said 

"It wasn't tight" I said

That seemed to anger the guard. He SLAPPED me

I punched him.

That angered every guard in the room. There were 10 of them. It was hard I tried to fight them. I couldn't fight. 

They did beat me a few times. And tied me back to the ropes this time tightly and left.

Everything was quiet for a day my eyes were trained on Alice. She was back to the corner shaking.

Alice again lifted her head and saw me.

She opened her mouth to speak but couldn't.

She tried again it came but I couldn't hear.

She tried again "don't speak" she said in a low whisper

I couldn't understand "What are you talking about" I asked 

"don't speak they don't like it" she said again

I couldn't understand what she was saying all of a sudden.

A few moments later the door opened and came in a few guards.

They smiled at me. What is going on I couldn't understand anything at this point

They went to Alice. My heart dropped.

"Don't touch her. I will kill you " I said

They slapped her a few times. I kept on screaming for them to stop. 

They didn't stop instead it increased to kicks and whips. ALice didn't even wince at all of this.

That's when I understood what she meant.

'I AM SORRY'

I couldn't protect her. 

I couldn't keep her safe. Instead all I caused is pain.

'I AM SORRY'
