Sofia’s pov

Sofia is the only daughter of William Blake. She has long wavy black hair that frame her round face that’s well sculpted and full of charm. Her blue eyes that seemed to see through to you and full red lips that are so inviting. She’s a pure seductress yet she’s still so innocent. When she was 12, her father took her away from home because he wants her to maintain her innocence. Although her mother was against the idea of sending her away, she finally gave in after her husband told her all that could happen to little Sofia if any of the mafia Lords lay their eyes on her.

That’s how Sofia was sent to a Catholic school in London. She’s been there ever since. she only visits during holidays and sometimes if her parents do not permit her to come visit, she stays in her hostel.

Sheila is her personal maid and best friend who she confides in. Whenever she’s bored in school, Sheila covers up for her while she sneaks out of school to go clubbing with some of her friends in school. The school authorities and her parents have no idea that they sneak out of school because they’ve never been caught.

Sofia learnt how to party and have fun with friends but unlike her friends,, she never went too far. She remained chaste and pure.

Her allowance for the month has been exhausted so Sofia sent Sheila home with the requisition form for her provision and allowance so her parents can sign on it.

Surprisingly Sheila did not come back alone. Her father came along with her which has never happened before. Normally they’ll simply sign on it and Sheila will come back with it but today her father brought Sheila back.

Sofia panicked. Her mind conjured different scenarios. “What if something has happened to my mum or my brother ” She thought. Or What if my father has found out that I go clubbing with friends??

She slowly walked towards her father’s car hoping for the worst.

When she approached her father, he suddenly hugged her so tightly and broke down in tears while apologising to her.

“Am so sorry my baby girl. I never meant to bring you into all these. I never wanted you to face all these,” dad said with a sob.

“What’s going on dad?? Where’s mum and Lucas?? What happened dad??” I asked in a panic as I held his hand and waited for answers.

William : They are both at home and they are both fine. You need to come back with me Sofia. Go pack your stuff. you’re going back with me. I’ll explain everything when we get home.

Sofia : No father I need to know what’s going on. Whatever it is just tell me I can bear it. am not a child anymore father. Tell me please is mum okay?? Where’s my brother??

William : Calm down sofi. its not about them. its about you. Come in let’s talk in the car.

They both got into the car while Sheila kept standing outside.

William Blake explained his gambling issues to Sofia and how he owed Damien Ashton the mafia Lord a huge debt that he’s not been able to pay.

Sofia : I want to help you father. What can I do??

William : Ohh my little Sofia. I don’t know what he wants to do with you yet. He only said he wants you and its either you or my life.

Sofia : I’ll go to him father. I’ll do anything to save you. but you have to promise me father. Promise you’ll stop gambling for good. Promise me father I cried to him in tears.

William : I promise Sofi. I wont near the doors of any Casino. I won’t let you down. But don’t be scared my baby. it’s not decided yet. I wont let him hurt you or your mother and brother. I’d rather die.

Sofia : It’s okay dad. I don’t know anything about the underground and mafia Lord but you’ve always taught us to avoid the wrath of the mafia Lord. Let’s give him what he wants. I’ll go get my stuffs.

I got out of the car and went to my hostel to pack my belongings. Sheila followed closely behind me to help me pack.

Immediately I entered my room I slumped on my bed and cried my heart out. I held myself and stayed strong in front of my father because I don’t want him to give his life for me.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

But deep down in my heart am feeling so sad. my life is about to change. I don’t know what my future holds.

I kept crying and asking God “Why me??

Is this my punishment for being rebellious??

Sheila came to lie down beside me on the bed. She held me close to her and consoled and also promising to always be by me.

We finally got up to pack my belongings. Sheila did the packing while I went to shower and changed my clothes. The school doesn’t permit students to dress casually outside. We were our habit and veil when leaving the school premises.

So I dressed in my habit and veil and went out with Sheila who carried my luggage to the car.

I met my friends outside. I don’t know what my father told them because he doesn’t even know what my fate would be.

I smiled at them to assure them that everything will be fine. Then I went to the chapel to pray before I leave.

After saying the hail mary I prayed for God to see my through. Then I went to my father who has been avoiding my eyes all these while. I smiled at him and he smiled back at me sadly.

I got into the passenger seat while Sheila got into the back as we drove back home.

I don’t know what future awaits me.

Our journey back home was moody and silent.

I tried to think of happy thoughts just to remove my mind from my fate.

Whatever the future holds,, I’ll face it with head held high. I wont let him kill my father.
