"How is my little girl doing?"
"Doing good, sir. The tutor introduced me to Latin today."
"Did you like it?"
"It was very difficult. Why do I need learn Latin, sir?" Lyra looks up the man who frequently visits
her ever since that dinner when she was ten.
"We can skip that part little one since I know how well you do on your other subjects. "His warm
big hand gently pats her head. He looks down at her with a smile on his chapped lips. As always,
she sits in his lap which seems to make him smile even more. “Is everyone treating you well?"
"Yes. Thank you for always helping me, sir."
"Enough with the formalities just call me Elmir." he leans down kissing her head softly. "I will
always help you."
Happy to finally have someone who cares she leans in close and hugs him tightly. His hugs are
always warm and makes her feel safe. He was both her parents in one person. They stopped
with the physical abuse and chain her in the basement but their words still hurt like a whip.
"I like your hugs."
"Good to hear because I like your hugs too." he answers holding her tighter.
"When will you be back next time?"
"Work is busy now so I won't be back for another three months. Be a good girl until then?"
"I will Elmir."she promises with a big smile wanting him to be proud of her.
"That's my girl. Now give me a kiss and a big hug before I leave"
She kisses his cheek and gives him a tight squeeze when hugging not really wanting him to
leave. He plants a kiss on the cheek and stands up, placing her on the floor and waves goodbye
ready to leave.
"Hello Mr Neserov, mom and dad are waiting for you in the office." Jenny informs the moment
she walks in.
"Jenny." Elmir greets curtly. Winking at Lyra with a secretive smile he walks out leaving her
alone with Jenny. The last person she wishes to be alone with but knew she wouldn't dare do
anything with him in the house.
"Come here." Elmir coos opening his arms. "Why are you crying?"
"Jenny called me a whore and said I was sleeping with you, that whores also got paid to be with
men and you pay to be with me and when done with me she'll be the first to laugh." Words kept
on rushing out like a volcano and she hated herself for not being able to control herself.
"Why does Jenny run her mouth about things she doesn't understand?" Elmirs voice hard with a
certain edge to it as he addresses her parents.
"Go get Jenny honey." Mike politely demands. Tiana immediately walks out and comes back
shortly after with a confused Jenny in tow.
"So, you like to run your mouth." Elmir questions staring straight at Jenny.
Without any further words Elmir raises to his full height and gently puts Lyra in his seat before
turning and slapping Jenny hard across the cheek. He roughly grabs her by the hair holding
firmly before hitting her in the stomach with a closed fist. Letting go Lyra watch Jenny fall to the
floor gasping for air.
