Fear Aida

First Day

I drove Daniel away just to the front page of the clinic and I released the pride I felt towards him. Then I re-entered the house and headed straight to the direction where I left Aida in my house, I was a little dreamy at that moment and I was surprised to see Aida still standing still in her position and not moving in the slightest. I passed her and sat on the sofa then started to look her in the eyes, Aida just stared at me sharply without saying anything. To be honest at the time I didn't know what was on his mind and that stiffness lasted a bit longer until I started to be able to think of the first word I wanted to tell him.

"Emmm...." I haven't finished finishing my sentence, Aida just cut it off.

"I am only your slave, you can treat me as you wish" Aida said amid a long silence.

For the first time I heard the scarred voice of the girl, her voice was so calm and unmoving with a sharp eye staring at me. I was quite surprised that she could chimed in on my words, Aida once again showed the firmness of her heart before me. I again doubted the truth if Aida was a victim who suffered from a mental disorder, but Daniel wouldn't waste time leaving a healthy child to me for no reason after what he did to find my whereabouts in this remote village.

"I won't do anything bad, I just.." I haven't finished speaking yet, Aida answered me again.

"It's okay, I'm used to getting bad treatment, so do as you like" he said

I answered nothing and just got off the couch and left with a smile, but she didn't respond to me at all even though our eyes met. Then I headed to my kitchen to prepare our dinner.

In the kitchen I started thinking "What should I do right now? although this is my job, but to be honest I feel the difficulty at this time". Aida looks very tough with her gaze and attitude, but on the other hand I know her mentality is not good - fine from what she had said to me. I want to try to melt her mood by cooking a dish that I'm good at, a pasta with a mouth-watering bolognese sauce and a glass of warm chocolate to warm her up. I hope this cooking will make it open to me a little bit, it's an important first step I can think of at a time like this.

A while passed I had finished processing the cooking, I walked towards the living room and intended to call Aida to take her to dinner together. In the middle of the room I saw Aida was still in her place, standing upright and not moving in the slightest from the beginning she arrived at my house until I finished cooking. His gaze was blank towards the front where there was only a corner of the house there, I was sure there was not a single interesting thing he could see but it seemed that he did not care about it.

"Let's have dinner together" take me

Aida's response again surprised me, without a word she walked up to me as if she wanted to immediately fulfill my invitation. Although many questions raged in my head out of astonishment but I tried to keep acting like it was normal in front of her, I turned around and walked towards the dining room followed by Aida behind me.

In the dining room I immediately pulled out one of the dining chairs and gave Aida a hand gesture so she could sit on the chair, without a word Aida immediately sat on the chair and behaved perfectly like a noble child who would spend the night with his extended family. After that I walked around the dining table to sit on the chair opposite to him, we were silent for a moment to look at each other.

"Will there be guests? I will hide if someone will come, it doesn't matter to me" he said - suddenly breaking the silence

"No one will come, eat. I purposely made this special menu for you, I don't know if you like it or not, but I hope you enjoy it" I replied while giving a gesture that it was the food

"Can I really eat it? Wouldn't there be a problem if I ate this without screaming in pain? my old master would only feed me a piece of whole wheat bread and a glass of water after he was satisfied listening to my cries of pain" he said softly.

I was surprised by what I heard, in my heart saying "What kind of man would do that to this girl?". If I notice, this girl has a pretty face with her sharp eyes and big blue eyeballs, thin cheeks, and, his thin lips with his nose that looks proportional make it look more charming, thin body with a height of approximately 160 centimeters, and white skin is certainly a dream of many people.

But the sheer scars on the left eye temple and the right cheek made me feel angry at the person who did this to him, a scar on the right hand that seems to connect to the shoulder and neck and an incision in the left arm right on his wrist, where he always tried to cover the scar when my eyes were fixed on the scars he suffered. But how hard he tried to cover those scars, I can still see them very clearly. I even began to feel how badly the wound in the black dress she was wearing that night, my mind was stirring when trying to imagine it.

I didn't say anything more, just stared at my food and started eating it in the hope that Aida would follow what I did to enjoy this dinner. Aida's hands slowly began to take her fork and once in a while her sharp eyes glanced at me, anxiety was clearly visible on her face even though Aida began to eat the paste slowly. I hoped his first mouthful could impress her and smile, but it didn't happen.

"Thank you" Aida said

"Is it delicious?" Much

"What should I say to you? I don't want to upset your heart because my words are wrong, my old master will beat me right away when I wrongly answer questions that don't suit his wishes." Answer

At that time I did not want to ask him again, it seems like I have to take another approach to gain his trust. As I stared at the window in my dining room and saw that it was dark, I was still at a loss for words because of my mixed feelings. I got out of my chair and began to clean the dishes on the table, but suddenly Aida held the plate and held the plate.

"I'll clean it up soon, I'm sorry I didn't clean it up right away. Please don't hurt me" she said in a shrill voice and a fearful look on her face, instantly his sharp eye gaze disappeared along with his sentence.

This was the first change I saw and heard, that terrified expression and his voice that no longer sounded calm. At that time I realized that Aida's mental condition was worse than the children I had handled before even if it included Daniel.

"It's okay, I'll do it. I know you must be tired, wait for me in the living room" I said slightly giving the order as gently as possible, without saying anything Aida stood up from her seat and walked towards the living room.

After finishing the table and washing dishes and glasses, I came out of the dining room and looked for Aida in the living room. He stood back up and stared at the corner of the house, his position had not changed since the beginning of this house. I began to feel what kind of treatment he had received all this time, perhaps a torture if not to do something, torture for an act and torture for violating the orders of his master, but my little heart said "No!! it's more than I can think of".

"It's late today, I'll show you your room" I said, pointing to a room

Aida walked behind me to a room that I prepared for inpatients at this clinic, but lately I rarely get patients who have to get hospitalization at the clinic. So the room was a little dusty and unkempt, but I had no choice but to give the room to Aida. I turned on the room light and put bed linen and blankets and pillows on the mattress that was available, don't forget I cleaned the dust around the mattress so Aida wouldn't be bothered with the dust when she fucked the mattress.

"It's a little dusty here, but tomorrow I'll get someone to clean it up. I hope you don't mind this time" I said as I looked at her, her eyes staring back sharply at my eyes.

"Can I use this room? I had no problem sleeping on the floor of that room" as I stared at the living room, I could feel her anxiety being in this room together with me.

Maybe she had a little trauma to the room, aah what I just said. How stupid I still say 'maybe' of course it happens, no one buys a man and he does not do the vile thing to the man he buys.

"Rest, Good night" I replied as I gave her the key to the room and left the room with Aida inside, I walked to my own room facing the front of Aida's room.

On my way to the room I looked back and saw Aida standing by the door while looking at me who was getting away from her, his sharp gaze was like watching me from a distance and I knew in his heart that I would be very anxious if I suddenly attacked him. But I ignored her glare and I kept walking until I entered my room, slowly I closed the door and I saw that Aida was silent until the door closed.

In the room I couldn't sleep, to be honest Aida's state worried me so much that filled my mind. The first day with Aida allowed me to read a little of what happened to her and make the feeling I wanted to get rid of come back to haunt my heart. YEP! the desire to help someone heal their mental disorder. It's my job and I threw it away for a reason.
