Bianca’s POV
Later in the evening, I slowly take the steps one after the order on my own. I don’t want to sit all day doing nothing, I have to get well as soon as possible to leave this place it not like i don’t enjoy staying here but I need to see my parents. Mum’s phone has been off and I couldn’t reach her am so worried, I just have to recover fast to go back home.
“Are you sure you don’t want any help? I heard a voice behind me and I knew it Drake’s mom.
“Sure, I want to walk on my own,”
“Let me help,” she said. She held my hand and we slowly walk to the sofa where i sat down gently, i felt so tired I guess it’s because my stomach hurts so bad. I was glad the few days I live here Nanny Kora got me new clothes and I must say am treated so good in here even in the absence of Dr. Nigel.
I raise the hem of my top and stare at my stomach, the ugly scar from the stab was still there.
“What! a husky voice almost yelled which freak me out, i raise my head to see Drake at the door he just walk in and I guess he must have seen the scar.
” Drake! When did you arrived? You freak us,” his mom said while he rolled his eyes.
” I was just surprised to see that,” he said perfunctorily heading to the stairs while I sigh.
“Your wound is fast healing,” she said
“Yeah except for the scar,” I said sadly while she held my hand.
“With time the scar will soon disappear,”
“I hope so,”
“Bianca! She called while i stare at her.
“I guess this the first time we are talking like getting into a serious conversation..” she said while I nodded wondering where she’s heading to…
“Am sorry about what happen to you. My husband told me everything and I really felt bad thinking about it knowing fully well that those who did this are out there enjoying their lives. I have been a victim of this too, I was abused several times not until I was saved by Nigel. I had a very pathetic life when i was a teenager just like you and I know how it feels,”
“oh! am sorry to hear that,” i said sadly.
“it’s okay i just want you to know you’re not in the wrong hands we will help you get throu-ghthis and am glad my husband wanted to help you too,” she smile then pulled me into a light hug.
“Awwww, i love this,” i heard Nanny Kora’s voice while we disengaged from the hug.
“seems everyone is getting to like you, well except for one person,” she smile then gently kept the plates of slice fruit she was holding on the table beside us.
“Drake will soon get to like you,” she said.
“sure,” Mrs. Gina nodded.
“but why is he acting that way, as if am sometimes invisible to him? i just ask them even thou am less concern about that, both his parents like me including his nanny so i think am okay with that.
“he’s always like this but trust me when i say he will gonna like you soon. For now he only sees you as a stranger but he will soon get rid of that idea if he sees how we treat you like a family,” his mom explained.
“thank you so much. I now believe everything happens for a reason and if i wasn’t stabbed then i wouldn’t have meet such kind people like you, it really an honor living under the same roof with you,” i smiled.
“you’re always welcome Bianca,” she smiled.
“dinner is ready,” nanny kora announced while i smile.
… We had dinner together just the three of us, Drake refuse to join us at the dining table and i guess is probably because of me and it obvious he don’t want anything that has to do with me but that’s the list of my problems i just want to recover soon go back home and shock Gary and Morris. After dinner i went back to my room, so many thought running throu-ghmy minds, i missed school and it obvious my scholarship just went in vain because i couldn’t even write the final exams, i have no certificate or any result to show forth and that means i can’t be going to any college, i felt my world crumble all because of Gary- someone i have always loved and trust. Love can be so cruel, not after what i shared with him and all i get now is a broken heart and a scar on my stomach. And thinking about the last thing i discussed with my parents about them not being my biological parents mom promise to explain everything to me but unfortunately it was the same day i got stabbed. How did it all happen? who are my real parents then? I have like thousands of questions running throu-ghmy mind i have to go home by all means, mom need to explain to me what dad meant that she’s just my surrogate mother.

???? I walked down the lonely street that cold evening when i sighted Mr. Morris, actually i didn’t see his face but i know that’s definitely him from his back view, my eyes widen in shocked. i have been searching for him for so many days now and here is he. I ran to where he was but he was still backing me.
“Mr. Morris how dare you.. how dare you do that to me,” i yelled in anger waiting for him to face me.
“you don’t have to worry Bianca am paying for what i did to you already,” he said still not turning his back.
“i hate you so much, why not turn your face,” i yelled and was about walking to his front while he immediately turn to face me, i wanted to slapped him but i stopped half way due to what i saw, his face was badly injured, he sustain lots of injuries on his head then his face, he was bleeding so bad and it as if has gotten into an accident but he should be dead or probably he should be at the hospital, i wonder how someone who just got injured so bad like this is standing right in front of me as if nothing happen. Like a ghost!
“this isn’t enough for what you did to me, you also involved Gary into this, you involved my boyfriend in your wicked act,” i yelled at him in tears..????

✨ I slowly open my eyes due to the reflection of the sun rays, the curtains were open and i stare at figure in front of me.
“good morning Bianca,” i heard her cheerful voice- Nanny Kora.
“hi,” i smile then sat down on the bed.
“how was your night?
“it was fine,”
‘well today is Saturday and all of us are at home so do you mine to join us at the sitting room? she asked while i smiled at least today wouldn’t be so boring since everyone is at home today. We walked downstairs and i meet Drake sitting on the sofa, he seems busy with his phone as he kept smiling.
“good morning Ma’am,” i greeted Mrs. Gina, she was wearing a tight trouser and a crop top, her hair was packed in a ponytail, she looks really young and beautiful and i wonder if she gave birth to Drake when she was still a teenager.
“you look so beautiful this morning, how was your night,” she smile cheerfully at me.
“it was great,”
“Drake! she called but he seems so engrossed in his phone
smiling, i guess he must be chatting with someone.
“Drake! she yelled while he flinch then turn to her.
“mom! you almost scared me. What’s wrong? he asked coldly.
“i want you to show Bianca places around this house, i don’t want her to feel too bored,” she said and i was surprise she was asking Drake to show me around, her grumpy son!
“like serious mom, am busy and it’s too early for this,” he frowned.
“just do this for me Drake, am going to the gym while nanny kora will be busy with in the kitchen just try to loosen up a bit,” she said.
“okay,” he mumbled then type something to this phone..
“and you know Harriet and her daughter will be coming for dinner tonight,” she added while he just nodded.
“follow me,” he said then walked out while i sighed.
“just do as he say and you will enjoy his company,” she smile while i nodded then trail behind him.
Drake kept walking while i just followed him he wasn’t saying anything but i care less about that, i just stare at the whole place. This the first time am seeing this mansion so well, it’s just like a paradise and if Drake should leave me here i bet i might lose my way but why isn’t he saying anything he should at least say something.
“seems like you’re force to do this, am sorry,” i said trying to start a conversation with him but he just maintain a straight face without responding to me.
“you’ve finally gain my parent trust,” i heard him say as he stopped, he was backing me staring at the pool in front of us while i stood right behind him.
“first it my dad, then nanny Kora and now my mom,” he said.
“your parents are good people,” i shrugged.
“and i wonder why you’re acting as if we are enemies or we were once enemies, we don’t even know each other,” i added while he turn to face me, i stood speechless as i stare at him- those charming eyes and cute face, he looked so handsome even when he frown.
“i don’t like you here at all,” he said while i laughed sarcastically.
“well i don’t like you either! am staying here because of your parents and once am fine i will leave then we’ll never get to see each again,” i said.
“i hope so and just stop pretending already, you’ve over stayed your welcomed and you’ve recovered already why not go back to where you came from. I hate strangers! he said and with that he walked away leaving me by the pool side.
The view was so perfect and i just sat down there staring into the water. That reminds me of the dream i had. Yes the dream about Mr. Morris! what does it mean and what did he meant by he’s already paying for what he did to me. Oh my God, i feel so worried i think once Dr. Nigel is back i will have to leave immediately. I have to execute my plans i don’t want to prolong my stay here and i also need to see my parents i hope they are fine.

Later in the evening..????
.
Harriet and her daughter arrived at the Alcatraz mansion and they were welcomed just as expected. Drake was happy seeing Annie. They had dinner together and it a good thing Drake’s mom asked Bianca also joined them at the dining table.
“this Harriet i hope you still remember her,” Gina said while Bianca stared at her trying to recalled if her face look familiar to her.
“am Harriet the one who saved you and took you to Nigel’s hospital,” Harriet explained while Bianca smiled hearing that, she wanted to see her again and thank her because she wasn’t able to do so they last time they saw each other at the hospital.
“thank you so much Ma’am, i will forever be grateful for saving my life,” Bianca said.
“am glad i helped you,” Harriet smiled. While Annie kept stealing glance at Bianca making her feel so uncomfortable, Drake notice that and gave her a “what’s the problem” look.
“am fine,” she smiled as she sip from her drink then glance at her mom to see her staring at Bianca, she wasn’t even eating.
“have we meet before? Harriet asked while Bianca looked confused.
“i mean aside from that day at the hospital have we ever meet? she asked the question more clearer.
“i don’t think so Ma’am,” Bianca said with her head down she felt so uncomfortable with the stares she’s getting from Annie.
“okay! meet my daughter Annie,” Harriet introduced while Annie smirked then clear her throat.
“from the look on your face am sure you’ve recovered already why not go back home or don’t you have a family, have you done something terribly that you were thrown out to the street to die like a dog? Annie asked her shocking everyone.
“Annie! Harriet half yelled dropping her fork.
“yes mom am just asking her a simple question and beside she looks so beautiful am asking her those questions so i will get to know what type of friend am about to have,” Annie said in a mocking tone.
“Annie is anything wrong? Gina asked her.
“am fine,” she replied with a smile then stood up.
“i will just get some fresh air outside,” she hurriedly walked out while Drake followed her too.
“what the hell is wrong with her today, she don’t even know Bianca and she’s acting this way,” Gina said staring at Harriet.
“am sorry,” Harriet said to Bianca.
“i have been throu-gha lot, so this is nothing to bother about,”
Bianca smile sadly as she remembered about Ara, the girl who always want to humiliates her! she thought she was free from her but now it seems like this Annie is just like Ara. Just their first encounter and she’s already blabbing bad things to her.
“i will talk to her,” Harriet said so worried she knew how bad Bianca will feel, what Annie said must have really gotten to her but she’s trying to hide it.
“but Bianca who are your parents? have you communicate with them yet? Harriet asked.
“not yet,”
“so who are they? what are their names? Harriet asked out of curiosity, she felt so attached to Bianca already and she want to know everything about her and why a beautiful girl like her was thrown away like that to die, who are her parents and why can’t they protect her? so many question running throu-ghher mind….????
what did you think??????
