Awake and free 2

Clara went closer to the bed to calm her down and from there she can no know one or two things about and the rest she will figure it out. Clara called out to her in the sweetest way possible so as not to scare her any further " Darling would you please stop crying ,it's ok you are in a safe place no one will dare harm you just look at me and stop crying please sweetie" she tried coaxing the girl and it's like she succeeded because by the time she was done Layla's was looking at her before she could ask for her name .Layla immediately hugged her and continued admist her tears she started talking ,she noticed the girl was shaking and she could say it was due to the shock of almost being raped .

"Ma, Layla started with the way she always called her mother; they almost raped she sniffed they wanted to have sex with with me against my own will .I begged but they didn't listen they even hit me because I tried to defend myself they ripped my dress fondled with my body .I can't even look at my body I just want to wash off the stains their hands have put on my body " she said crying and sniffing in between.

All this while Clara listened to her carefully and patted her hair as a sign of comfort. She was shocked when the girl addressed her as ma but she couldn't ask her any questions for now the girl was still traumatized by what happened the previous night. "Hush now my darling everything will be alright I will make sure they pay ok sweetie " she told her to receive a reaction from her the girl nodded and had calmed down.So she continued "Now baby you are going to take a shower,get dressed and look all beautiful for Mama by then I will be back with your breakfast ,Ok baby" and Layla didn't give any reaction so she tilted her head so she could see her face .

When she could see her face she saw Layla pouting her lips and saw tears about to rush out again in those big black eyes and again she resumed to petting the girl "ok baby look at mama don't cry now what do want mama to do for you .Just ma and she will do to it for you ". Layla knew this woman was not her real mother but she was surprised how the voice and eyes were the. same and the woman addressed her the same way her mom did so she thought it won't be bad if she treated her like her mother.

So Layla looked into her eyes and said " mama I want you to stay with me ,bathe for me,dress me up and feed me ." Clara's jaw dropped did this girl hit her head or something well it's not that she couldn't do all those things for her but it's just that she was sure the girl noticed she wasn't her real mother or was the girl having a shirt term memory loss.

She gave her best sweetest smile patted the girl gently on her head with so much love "oh my darling don't worry mummy will stay with come on now let's go get you washed up and fitted into some nice wears ".She got holding hands with Layla and helped her up from the bed into the bathroom her bath had been ready so Clara heated the water and Layla put off her clothes and stepped into the tub and she enjoyed Clara wash her like her mother would , then she washed her hair after that they entered a walk in closet Layla was amazed to how big the closet was but pretended not to be surprised. Clara took her to couch and told her to sit down while she looked for what she could wear . Immediately she found it she got her dressed up .By the time they were done both women were hungry and luckily for them the maids had already brought food to the room so they settled down to eat.

While they were eating Clara cleared her throat and decided to clarify things with the girl she didn't want to hurt her feelings but she couldn't also keep her if she didn't know anything about her. So she began "dear I am sure you know I'm not your mother, I would love to have a daughter as lovely as you but it won't be fair to steal you away from your parents" Layla knew this was going to come up one way or another she replied "you are not stealing me away from my parents ma they a dead unfortunately .We were rich before but due to the wickedness of this world they were taken away from me quickly .I'm sorry if I have made you uncomfortable in any way but let me introduce myself" she said and cleared her throat " I'm Layla Andrews the only daughter of Mr and Mrs Jason Andrews I lived with my aunt before I ran away from her house due to how badly she and her evil family maltreated me .I was running away when I was taking hostage by some men when I woke up and they noticed I was awake they tried to rape but was stopped due to the presence of a man. He seemed to be their boss because of the way the rest of the men reacted to his presence. When the man stopped his attempt the boss took some tool and used it to cut off the man's hand.

While she said all these Clara listened to her and was shocked that the Andrews daughter was still alive. She knew her parents and knew her father was close friends with her late younger brother she had met the family twice but hadn't seen the girl but she knew the couple had a daughter. And now the girl is in front of her and is giving her the title of being her mother. She spoke "oh my dear I so sorry you had to go through that we'll I knew your parents your father was my late younger brother's friend both friends died on the same day it was a tragedy. And the man you said you saw cut off another man's hand is my nephew I'm so sorry if he scared you but he isn't like that and isn't his habit.

She immediately stood to her feet and engulfed Layla in a heart warming hug Layla returned it and both ladies had the rest of the day knowing each other more.
