8 Sheila? Who was she?

"Hey uncle now let's calm down and talk this through ..hmmm??" Lucia laughed nervously while desperately trying to untie her hand. Things were looking much worse than she had anticipated.

"Come on babe, don't call me uncle you know how much I hate it…" The mad man was full of glee looking at struggling Lucia.

'God, how come I got entangled with this madman….boo hooo' Lucia cried in her heart. Lucia really wanted to kick God if there was something or someone called God. Sadly she had given up on God a long time ago. Despite all her struggles and fear Lucia didn't know what or how but she felt she was not going to die at least not that day.

The coarse hand of the man reached to her neck slowly stroking her collar bone and moving up to her vocal cord that was moving up and down as she gulped down her saliva out of nervousness. Fear and disgust was clearly shown in her eyes.

"Yep, this is the feel I wanted to have…..hahhhh… hahhhh" The man breathed heavily as his lecherous hand kept touching and feeling her. Lucia was trying her best to stay calm and not puke out but when the hand finally reached her nape she couldn't help but let out a sharp screams.

She hated it to death and she wished she could rip off those hands that dared to touch her. She felt as if worms were crawling all over her body. All she wanted now was to rub herself clean and if that was not possible she would skin out her flesh.

"Yes scream all you want, it only makes things much more interesting.." Those hands didn't stop making Lucia feel more repulsed than before. The room was probably sound- proof considering the material it was made up of.

Lucia closed her eyes as she slightly trembled. She hated it but what could she do? She was helpless bound to that damned chair.

The door to the room opened with a bang. "Uncle stop what you are doing this instance."

"Huh!!!" Lucia opened her eyes wide hearing a new voice. Moreover she was startled when the door opened with a noise. All she could see were two blur figures one of them being kind of well-built with proper proportions of the body. She felt she had seen that silhouette somewhere.

"Wh-aat are y-oou do-oin-gg he-ere?" The man stuttered at the arrival of intruder in his room. Hurriedly he took a black sheet and covered Lucia with it hoping that will hide her away from them.

Lucia could not and did not want to let this chance slip away. "Help me!" She shouted in her already hoarse voice.

"Arghh.." Lucia hissed in pain when a kick landed on her leg. It was from the man who was indicating her to stay quiet.

'Wait, there is no guarantee that this new person is my ally.' Lucia felt disheartened as a cold fear seeped deep inside her heart wiping out the little light of hope.

She listened carefully in the dark but all she heard was silence. 'Are they playing staring contest with each other?' A thought emerged in her mind. 'Be serious and act like a victim you idiot.' She scolded herself when jokes came in her mind even when her fate was at the mercy of some one else.

Exactly that was happening outside. From the doorway a man with cold and aloof face stared at the red and flushing middle aged man who was in loss of what to do.

"You should not be here boy, go back before Dad wakes up..." The middle aged man smiled weirdly trying to keep his cool and chase whoever the intruder was.

Lucia who was out of any kind of danger for the time being concentrated on their conversation hoping to understand whatever she could, useful or not.

'The new man calls this pervert uncle and the uncle threatens him with his dad meaning that dad is grandfather of the new man….wait am I in some kind of twisted family drama?' Lucia felt as if she had turned into detective Lucia.

"Mr. Trevor please step aside." Another voice spoke out breaking the stillness of the room. It was probably the other man who entered the room.

'Oh so this pervert is called Trevor not that I wanted dot know anyway.' Lucia decided she was going to hate the name Trevor Forever.

"He—y st-o-oop …" The man gasped in horror as he tried to stop the out stretched hand that was trying to pull the sheets on Lucia. But he was too late for Lucia could finally look at the brightness again. But the first thing she saw a wide chest but it was hidden by a fitting white shirt.

'Tall way too tall..' Lucia thought raising her head to look at the man but a big hand directly closed her eyes.

'Again???' Lucia was frustrated with this game of hide and seek but somehow those big hands felt warm and secure. All of her nerves relaxed and she finally felt the tension leaving her body.

"You can't look at me." The man spoke closing her eyes.

The man felt his hands feeling some kind of wetness. He looked down and saw the girl crying. At first only tears fell down but slowly she started to whimper as she bit her lip trying to hold her tears. Even if she was calm before she was just an eighteen year old girl after all.

"Just cry it out." The man spoke in a deep voice finally breaking down the last line of self- control she had kept. Lucia did exactly as she was told. She cried out her heart, her fear, her heartbreak from the life before, her pain and everything for only one voice resounded in her mind. 'Just cry it out.'

It was so simple but Lucia had kept everything to herself. Even if she thought she was okay she actually was not. Even though she thought she died without any regrets she still had lots of regrets in her heart. She had thought she could live a better life without involving in anything that could harm her but she was wrong.

Just because she was knew the past and all the happenings didn't meant she could avoid them and have the perfect life she hoped for. Everything was so unfair and fate was especially cruel to her.

She cried, her tears running down her nose and cheeks wetting the hand that blocked her eyes and her red dress which couldn't even absorb them. In midst of all these tears Lucia felt someone unbinding her hand.

Looking at this scene the middle aged man also known as Trevor felt his anger boiling. "You can't take her, I finally found her again…yo-ou can't do this to me-ee.." He tried holding Lucia but fell on his knees as he grasped the empty air.

Unwilling to give up he tried using talk no jutsu. "DO-oesn't she lo-ok ex-act-ly like Sheila? He he…I kn-ow yo—o-u also miss her…hah ah..so don't ta-ke he-er away..hmm?"

The hand on her eyes suddenly tightened and she could feel the deathly aura emitting from the man. She could feel the veins pulsating on his hands. 'Sheila?? Was not she the girl in the photo?' Lucia who was finally calming down wanted to know who this Sheila girl was.

"Don't talk about her with that filthy mouth of yours..I am warning you." The same cold voice echoed throughout the room but only this time it was angrier and even colder. Even the hand on her face seemed to be squishing her.

'Family problems, lunatics, pervert, cold fight over a girl, unknown people.' Lucia felt her head spinning with all of these data. If she could she wanted to swat away the hand of the man now that she was feeling a lot better and from the looks of it she was not in any kind of danger.

"Ahh.." Lucia finally gave a low cry when it hurt too much. "You don't want me to look at you right?? Then I will block my eyes myself. You don't have to bother."

He looked down at the girl who finally spoke a proper sentence and she was clearly implying him to leave her eyes. He himself also didn't want to keep blocking them and her tears felt sticky.

"Jack bring it here."

"Huh? Now what?" Lucia couldn't keep tracks of things that were happening. As soon as the hand left her eyes , she was blindfolded again. "Sorry miss. There are many things you can not know and its probably for the best if you don't see a thing." Jack spoke apologetically but professionally.

"We are sorry for all this troubles but make sure you are aware of things and people in the world. This world... Its not as good as it seems." Jack could only tell this much.

"Take her home." The man ordered " and as for you" he looked at the man sprawled on the floor. "I will deal with you later..you can reflect on your crimes till then." His voice emotionless.

"He-ey how da-are you thr-reat-n me?? I am you uncle.." The man laughed hysterically. Lucia was led by jack out the door and the last sentence she heard was, "You lost that position a long time ago..." Although she was curious about what had happened leading to all this drama but her main priority was reaching home. "Mom please don't do anything reckless. I will be coming back soon so Mom you better be okay."
