Isabella's POV:

It's been around a week since the dinner incident and my beatings have gotten worse. I am constantly tired because of lack of sleep and constant nightmares. I can see John and Mary are worried for me but I can't tell them the truth. I just hope I get out of this place soon but I know I still have to stay there for two more years.

Today I am quite exited because my best friend Katherine is coming to meet me.
She is a fashion designer and managing director at Knight Fashion. Some people say that she used her family name to be MD but I know she deserves it because she is very hard working and extremely talented.
Her family is very rich but she tries to live her life like a normal person. She started working at Knight Fashion as an intern since college and worked her ranks up. the company is her mom's but she never misused the power.

She is really outgoing and can hold up conversation with anyone. She isn't snobby or shows her wealth of like other people. She was studying designing and I was majoring in Software but we had same minors, Literature. (P.S. I don't know how universities work in US. So I don't know if I am correct or not. Tell me if I am wrong) We were paired for a project in the first year and we instantly clicked and since then we are best friends. She was off to Paris because of a fashion show and now she is coming back.

I quickly get dressed into a simple white top and blue jeans. My bruises are still visible and healing so I have to be careful. I covered them with my makeup and went into the kitchen. I quickly whip some breakfast for three devils and go to the café.

"Hello John! How are you?" I greeted John as I entered the café. He was standing behind the register and replied, "I am fine dear! How are you?" "I m good" I replied with a small smile. I take his place behind the register and he changed the sign from close to open. We then went back to our respective works. I was behind the register while John was baking in the kitchen.

Time passed quickly and before I know lunch time. Kate would be coming over any minute. And soon I heard her voice, "Hey gurl wassup bitch!" she yelled as she engulfed me in a tight hug. I bit back the pain I felt because of the bruises. "I am fine. You tell me how was Paris?" I asked her. "Wait! You look skinnier than you were last time" she said with concern. I smiled and said, "and you look beautiful as always. Now lets have lunch." She truly look beautiful in her simple blue dress with floral design in it.

I dragged her to a small deli near the café. It is our go to point. We sat near the window and ordered some food. I could tell Kate was trying to say something but was not able to so I encouraged her, "Speak up!" "huh?" she asked me back. "You want to say something so speak up" I said again. She took a deep breath and said, "I want you to come with me to my family dinner this weekend."

Cliffhanger!!
