Chapter 15: Her Story Part 3
We gasped at the horrible sight. Our eyes laid on a pale man with a horrified look on his face. Naked and his neck seemed to have been squeezed indicating that he was choked or perhaps strangled to death. On the bed was Angelica, covered by the blankets, tear stains were obvious and her eyes seemed puffy and red. Her eyes were filled with hatred, we didn't know what triggered it, but fear gripped our shoulders tightly. Even some of the maids ran off, terrified. We didn't know what to do.
It was the first time I felt afraid of a woman.
We buried the body later on and had Angelica isolated from the others with the boss asking her questions on what had happened. She said nothing though, so no one really found out what had happened. Because of her sheer defiance, she stayed isolated for the next few months with only Cecilly visiting her. The girl constantly visited Angelica, bringing her food, clothes, even blankets.
It was so unexpected.
One day, Cecilly seemed to be in a panic, bringing a bucket of water and towels and blankets. It was almost winter anyway. But everyone heard it. The cry of a baby. It echoed through the halls of the whole house, alarming everyone. Wondering whose baby it belonged to.
We rushed to the sound where it was coming from. It was chaotic, people pushing you forward, the noise that they were making. Upon arrivig to the sound, a few of us realized that it was the room Angelica was isolated in. A girl pushed the door open and we were greeted by the startled eyes of Cecilly and Angelica.
"What's going on here!" Boomed the voice of our boss, "Well, well. What do we have here? So this was why you wouldn't talk. . Your customer impregnated you," he laughs evilly, "But you couldn't hide it forever can you?"
He's the father?!
The girl only looked at us faintly before she passed out. I felt surprised to not have heard her screams. Did she actually endure the pain all this time?
Did she actually keep quiet to keep her baby safe?
But why?
Later we transferred Angelica into a room with the baby. Cecilly as her helper. Loyal friend, huh? Actually I heard a rumour that said that Cecilly was being bullied by the other girls for being Angelica's friend. And, of course, Angelica came to the rescue.
Most of us never find out the origin of a whore, so it wasn't any surprise if some of them actually had fighting skills. They said that Angelica was fierce, somehow able easily to disarm two women (who happened to be former bodyguards).
Which turned into a rivalry.
Anyway, the boss was quite upset. Other than Angelica being "off duty" for nine months, she took care of her baby for four months. Making a year and a month out of work. Which also disappointed our customers.
It wasn't long until our boss decided to take the baby from Angelica.
"Where's my baby??!!" Screams Angelica.
Did I mention that Cecilly was supposed to be at Angelica's side? Well, she was, but was made to be on duty. WHICH I believe you are aware of what that means. And I wasn't there to see that. So other than knowing that Cecilly having a customer to entertain that night I know nothing.
"Angelica, what's the matter??" Cecilly asks, barging into the room. She gasps to not see the baby in Angelica's arms.
I was unlucky to be there at that time.
"Ronaldo!" Yells Cecilly, charging towards me.
And I received a not so painful beating from the girl.
"Cess," says Angelica, we turn to her, "Please tell me you know where he is." She continues, tears starting to swell in her eyes.
"Angelica. . . I'm sorry. . . I was on duty last night."
That triggered it.
That was it.
Angelica went all berserk. She screamed so loudly I thought that I shook from the force of her scream. It was chaotic. Glass shattered everywhere. Wood split and clattered. Her raging screams filled the whole house. Cecilly was a living angel. Being able to calm Angelica down at that time was a serious miracle. I thought that she had the possibility of killing everyone right there and then.
A few weeks later, Angelica turned back into her usual normal self again. Like nothing happened. But when she was alone, she would look out the window and watch the snow fall from the sky. Cold, bitter winter was coming.
The next unexpected incident was the time. . . I dunno how it happened. . . when Angelica broke out of the house. ALONG with two-thirds of the ladies! I don't know how the heck it happened, it just did. I wasn't there you see. Later on we found out that they had escaped through a broken window. We were quite surprised because those windows were supported with iron bars. Only the strength of a man could do that. It all sent us wondering. Boss was furious. He had us chase those girls in the bitternes of the cold.
Long story short: we couldn't find the girls. None of them whatsoever.
One of our men later found out that Bernardo was the one who helped them escaped. It was a huge surprise from a whore buyer. The man was beaten and tortured to get some information on their locations. He never said a word. He was interrogated on why he did such a thing. He said nothing either. So in the end. . .
He was beaten to death.
After that we lost a couple of customers after hearing that several of their favorites were gone. They disappeared and never came back. It wasn't long until a handful kept coming.
But even they didn't last long.
Our boss was furious. Filled with rage and hatred for the girl who turned the house upside down. The angel who walked in and took away everything:
Our best man, Bernardo.
The girls.
The life of an expensive customer.
No. That man didn't matter since he came only once.
And it wasn't long until our boss ordered a manhunt and make the girl who did it all pay. The manhunt lasted for four years. Imagine that. Four years is a long time isn't it? We were able to catch up to Angelica by mysterious means.
Or to me at least.
"Hey, Grey tracked Angelica to Regalo." Says one of our men. We were under the night sky at that time, all sitting by the fireplace. Chatting.
"Regalo?" Scoffs a man, "You mean that place with those Arcana people?"
"The Arcana Famiglia you mean?"
"Yeah, whatever. I got the idea."
"So what did Boss say?" I asked. I hate being one of the last ones to be informed.
"Someone came this morning and claimed to have sold Angelica to Bernardo."
"Does he even have proof?" I asked.
"None whatsoever. But he did offer a large sum of money for her return."
"Did boss agree?"
"He did eventually."
End of P.O.V.
********
"After that we finally caught up to her, found her in your hands," Says Ronaldo, glancing at his audience who eagerly listened to everything, "End of story."
"What made you have the motive to help Angelica by warning her?" Asks Mondo.
"Hm? I just wanted to. Y'know," replies Ronaldo, "I've been wanting to quit my current job and go see places. Go on an adventure." He says.
"We see," says Mondo, "Where's the baby now, by the way?"
"You mean Angelica's? I do not know."
