CHAPTER THREE: LET ME GO
"Please wait," Rosetta called out to the huge man. He had a scary aura and the air around him felt cold and full of power.
When she ran out of the truck, he was the only one she saw, alongside another good-looking man who was a foot shorter than him. The man seemed influential by the way he was dressed and the car he came out from was an expensive looking one, she was sure only the president of the country would use.
Rosetta felt he could help her and save her from the goons, so she called out to him running towards him for his assistance.
"Let's go Mr. DeLuca my men will sort this out" The plump fat man that came out of nowhere tried to coax him into leaving and he didn't bother to object to leaving her there.
He didn't come to her rescue as she had hoped, he went away, not sparing her another glance. His back was broad and muscular, his walking full of elegance, swag and pride. She didn't see his face properly and he didn't bother to spare her a look.
Once again she was left in the clutches of ruthless monsters the same ones that killed her only living relative, her grandmother was dead now.
The cruel wicked world she had been told existed was now what she was facing, completely alone now, with no one to call her own. She sobbed silently as the goon dragged her into a room.
A pretty woman walked in chewing bubble gum, she was moving towards their direction. She was tall and very slim with blond hair styled to sooth her looks, she had brown eyes that were a little hidden by her large artificial eyelashes.
"Put her with the rest of the girls" One of the goons ordered, pushing Rosetta to the woman.
"Tsk, know the way you speak to me Marco" The woman warned, popping a bubble as she glared at the man named Marco.
She went to Rosetta, and began playing with her hair, staring at her face intently, she pinched Rosetta’s cheeks.
"This one...." she paused what she was saying, grabbing Rosetta's chin and lifting her head to face her. "She is by far the prettiest girl"
"I know right, I would love to keep her for myself," One of the men claimed lustfully, trying to touch Rosetta but the other woman pushed his hand away.
"Keep your dirty hands off her" she growled at him and he backed away with a sneer.
"Let's go pretty, I will get you dolled up to be sold to the highest bidder " she smiled broadly escorting Rosetta to another room.
"I don't want to be here" Rosetta mumbled silently, admits sobs.
"Tsk, that's what I said when I was brought here years ago. That is what we all say: we want to go back home and not become a prost*tute to be used by men, but we have no choice, "the woman said, smiling sadly.
"Now I am used to it, you will get used to it too sweetie " The pretty woman tried to comfort her but it wasn't going to work, it wouldn't ever work out.
She was taken to a room, where other girls were being dressed up in revealing attire, their hair was being done even makeup.
They wanted the girls to look very attractive so they could be auctioned off for a good price.
The girls looked neutral, so she couldn't decipher what emotions they were feeling. It was horrible that innocent girls would be sold by fellow humans for money. She never knew the world was this horrible and now she didn't want to be in the world anymore, she would have preferred to be dead.
"Who's this pretty one?" someone whistled moving towards Rosetta and the lady.
"The men just got her here, she is going to make us loads of money, get her ready to go out with the other girls"
"Definitely, come on let's get you all dolled up" Rosetta was handed over to the person and was taken to a dressing table.
"The auction is about to begin, start sending the girls in now" A man announced, and the other people in the room escorted the girls into another room.
"Be quick with that one Tina" the man said pointing at Rosetta "she seems to be a new one, she is very beautiful" he complimented mesmerized by Rosetta
"There is no time so I am going to do a light makeup for her, and there are no more revealing dresses so she is going to have to wear a plain dress" The woman named Tina who was with Rosetta said as she tried to cover up her teary eyes with make-up.
"Stop crying girl" she snapped at Rosetta. "You're going to be a wh*re for a rich man, it should be something to be happy about, " Tina commented harshly.
Rosetta sobs increased and she continued tearing up when the woman made the comment.
"I am done with this cry baby, put her in the dress she will probably be our lowest sale today, has a pretty face and nice shape but she is such a cry baby and no man is going to want that " the lady said watching as Rosetta was forced to put on a dress.
"Hey, the auction has already begun" Marco informed entering the room "get this girl outside with the rest" he commanded pointing at Rosetta.
"I don't want to go" Rosetta found the courage to speak up.
The man stared at her angrily, none of the girls had the courage to speak up or even disobey his orders but this little girl had defiled his orders.
"The door is open, you can leave," Marcos said, pointing towards the door.
Rosetta smiled, surprised she only tried her luck with them and they permitted her to go. She was elated that he had let her free. “Thank you very much sir" she appreciated him turning around to leave
As Rosetta turned around, the man brought out a gun pointing it at her back, Marco shook his head smiling as he pulled the trigger.
