Sunday..

IT HAS BEEN ONE WEEK, one week of school, one week of avoiding her old friends,one week of dealing with dumb comments about her eyes and one week of talking to James even managing to make him healthier. He would always have bruises every now and then, but Sofia didn't question it. Sofia was rushing to finish her dinner so she could talk to James and maybe start a pin board about it.

"Sofia?" her fathers voice echoes, Sofia snaps out of her thoughts and looks up at her father "are you okay bambina? You're acting weird"

Sofia nods and takes a bite of her salad she made herself, Leonardo wasn't convinced at all but let it slide for today. He was still angry with Marco but not as angry as Enzo, he didn't understand how Enzo was cold and distant then now he.. cared?

Bianca keeps on rambling on about her day and how she 'likes' school. "Studying is magical" she over-reacts, Sofia let out a really loud snicker. "What" Bianca seethes. Sofia just shrugged, recently James had showed her how to look intimidating when you're really terrified inside. "Go on, I wanna be let in on the joke.. Enlighten me" Bianca faces Sofia glaring at her.

Unbothered, Sofia just keeps eating 

"you're so weird"

"Bianca" their father interrupts in a warning tone

"And you aren't?" Sofia loudly mutters, causing Matteo to snicker earning a glare from his father

"Girls enough" Leonardo warns louder

"You're so uncultured" Bianca ignores him again

"and you're just another fake. bitchy. blonde. bimbo." Sofia snaps, Enzo chokes on his dinner slightly laughing

"I said enough!" Leonardo slams his fist on the table, Sofia flinches and soon enough the scared, helpless little girl came back. "both of you to your rooms" Sofia stood up and walked away with Bianca, and when they were far enough Bianca took action.

"You embarrassed me in front of our brothers you slut" she fumed punching her broken rib, "one day i'll make them hate you, and it will be soon" then she punches Sofia in the rib again and walks away, Bianca just made it worse. Sofia falls to the floor holding her torso, slowly standing up then Marissa appears out of nowhere.

"I saw everything. We must tell your-" Sofia raises her left hand "no need im- fine" she grunts and walks to her room "But Sofia we must" Marissa tries to reason with her but Sofia refused "promise me you will not tell a soul" Sofia softly sighs, Marissa reluctantly nods and leaves the room. 'poor girl, I'll get revenge soon' she thought.

Sofia could barely walk, she was in too much pain but she made it to her mirror and carefully lifted her sweater, it was bruising badly, worse than before. It was practically black, Sofia went to touch her bruise when she heard the door knob turn so she quickly pulled her jumper down.

"Father wants to see you" Enzo stares at Sofia "huh- oh okay" Sofia picks at her finger nails, she walks away.
