~Recap~
Matteo's POV:
"Okay, well, we've been here an hour. Where is Lila?" Gio asks.
We all look at each other as subtly as possible.
There's no getting out of this one.
"What is it? What are you not telling us?" Alessandro replies, his voice darker than I had heard it before.
"Well, you see..." Enzo starts.
"Hurry up. Spit it out." Alessandro interrupts.
"We don't know. We don't know where she is or when she will be back." Angelo blurts out quickly.
Alessandro's eyes darken, as to Gio's.
"You find her and you bring her home. NOW! IF SHE HAS EVEN ONE SCRATCH ON HER HEAD I SWEAR TO GOD YOU WILL ALL BE IN BIG TROUBLE!" Alessandro shouts. "YOU HAD ONE JOB. TO KEEP HER SAFE. AND YOU FAILED! HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW WHERE SHE IS!"
Fuck.
We are fucked.
~Now~
Rocco's POV:
Three days later.
It's been three days since Alessandro and Giovanni have arrived and they've been fuming with Enzo for letting Lila out of his sight.
Enzo tried to explain how she would sometimes disappear for days at a time, that it was just her making trouble, but that didn't help his case. He got shouted at by them both for being so careless with her and not disciplining her enough, not raising her well.
Now, after knowing that this is a regular occurrence of hers, they've resulted to just waiting her out, knowing she will come back.
They also checked the security cameras to find all her sightings in the house and in the past two months she's only been at the house for a total of 45 minutes. If Alessandro and Giovanni were not fuming before, they were certainly fuming then. Even with their cold, neutral expression, you could tell they were angry.
Incredibly. Angry.
Now, we're all sitting in the living room, mindlessly watching whatever's playing on the TV.
Alessandro and Giovanni had moved into their old room. They shared one since it was the biggest room. It was right across from Lila's room and on the opposite end of the corridor to the stairs.
Suddenly, I hear the front door open.
Someone besides me turns the TV off. The door shuts and I see small feet head up the stairs, however the footsteps are silent.
