Amira Sultan p.o.v
 

"Please ! Please ! Please don't lock me in the basement, it's dark over there " my 12 years old self begged my step mother who was dragging me by my hair .

" Ouch " she threw me inside the dark room .

" Rot here " one last glare , she closes the door taking the light , leaving me to drown in darkness .

" NO ! PLEASE PLEASE I WILL SWEEP THE FLOOR PROPERLY NEXT TIME PLEASE I AM SCARED !" I shouted hoping for her to hear me but there was no response .

Shivering I look around the dark room " Ah… " I jumped when I felt something run on my foot .

I heard a rat squeak, I breathe heavily as I lean on the wall . " Please Allah … please save me please " I wipe my tears .

" I am scared mommy " I cried remembering my mother .

" Plea- se ta-ke me out "  I hiccup, feeling suffocated .
 

" Please take me - out " I laid on the cold floor feeling ache all over my body , my eyelids become heavy " mom- mommy " I barely whispered before my eyes shut .

Khalid Mirza p.o.v

" It's all her fault " I massage my temple roaming in my room from one side to another .

I haven't slept all night , I just couldn't. The only thing crossing my mind was her broken and fearful face .

Why  the hell I cared about her so much , it's not the first time I gave punishment like this to someone .

" I warn her not to come downstairs but still she did " I felt anger bubbling inside me "  not only that she spill the whole drink on Gabrielle and I had to lose million dollar project because of her stupid clumsyness "

" Stupid , idiot , silly girl nothing but trouble " I sat on the edge of the bed  feeling restless and irritated .

It's been 24hrs since she has been inside the damn cell .

Is she okay ???  My inner self question me 

I stood up furiously " I DON'T CARE " I rake my hand through my hair frustrated at myself " I just don't care "  




 

I was typing furiously on my laptop " Khalid !" Osman burst into my room .

I clench my fist " knock Osman knock " I tried my best to control my anger .

" Well sorry boss " he said in a mocking tone .

" I need to show you something , come with me " he came straight to the point .

" Close the door, I won't go anywhere " I didn't move my eyes from the screen .

" WHAT THE-" I stood up furious .

" Just come with me Khalid , it's important " anger laced in his eyes .

" It's better to be important " I warn , marching toward the door .




 

" No… reverse it " Osman ordered the CCTV footage incharge.

I cross my arm looking at the seven different screens of CCTV footage .

I close my eyebrows when I saw Amira running toward Gabriella in panic .

" Show a different angle " I ordered leaning on the screen closer .

Slowly my eyes got bigger , she and Myra was coming out of the bathroom in panic constantly looking back .

" Reverse this footage more " Osman ordered , the man tapped the computer keyboard .

My fist curled into a ball ,  a Nathan pushed Myra inside the bathroom forcefully while closing the door behind him then Amira ran inside hurriedly then came out clutching Myra hand .

She went to save Myra , the girl she was supposed to hate .

I bare my teeth " it won't take a genius to guess you , what he was trying to do with Myra and how Amira went inside to save her " Osman gritted out .

" That's why she was so scared, Dammit! " Osman cursed .

" Find Nathan " I glare at the screen then Osman " NOW " 

 

I turned to the direction of the basement where I kept Tesoro for more than 24 hours .

" Sir "  the guard stood up as soon as they saw me .

" Open the cell '' they look at eachother face confused .

" NOW !" I bark, making them jump slightly .

They nodded, opening the cell , and I quickly entered inside .

My chest tightened at the sight , in the corner of the wall laying on the cold floor she curled up  like a ball .

" Tesoro ! Tesoro " I pat her cheek lightly to wake her up .

" Dammit " her body is burning with fever , her once bright face looking pale that makes my blood cold in fear .

I pull her in my arm carrying her to my room " CALL THE DOCTOR NOW " I bark .

I put her on my bed covering her body with the blanket " Tesoro please wake up " I whispered rubbing her palm while she laid there lifeless, scaring the shit out of me .
 

What is this girl …. Why she is not bad like others, why she is not selfish . I know all these months Myra made her life hell instead of me and she risked her life to save her .

And Myra it's been 24 hours , she didn't have the courtesy to come and tell me the truth .

 

I take my hand through my hair feeling impatient while the doctor checks her .

" Is she alright ? I quickly asked as soon as the doctor was done .

" It felt like she went through a panic attack , but I gave her an injection , she will be awake till morning '' I stepped back letting the doctor walk away .

I press my lip in a thin line , I walk up to her , my eyes soften at her pale face " why did you come downstairs Tesoro , why " I caress her cheek softly with my thumb .

" Ahem " I quickly retook my hand standing up .
