THIRD PERSON POV
"Take her to her room Noah, Issac call the doctor" Ace says
Noah and Issac move to follow Ace's words
"Mr. Bianchi are you sure about what you have said?" Ace asks
San nods
"Why are you believing a stranger over our mother. Don't do this" Nate says
"Yes I know that she was bad but I don't think she would hurt her own child" Steve says and leaves the room
"I know what I am doing but first let the doctor check Alice" Ace says and leaves the room
Ace goes to Alice's room and stands there for a moment footsteps make him release a sigh he enters the room.
He sits beside Alice caressing her head
'I can't see you like this Magnolia, I can't see you in pain you are innocent yet you are the one in pain. I want to protect you from all the things in this world even if it is the pain of your past. It's ok if your memories don't come and you don't remember us I will just make new and happy memories with you and the others I don't want you to remember the bad that happened to you in the past. I wish I could stop this I wish I-'
"Ace dr. John has come" Issac says Ace nods
"I will be outside make sure she is fine and Noah will be here with you too" Ace says while the others quietly agree
"You can stand outside or go anywhere you want but don't go inside unless it is required" Ace says
"B-" Arthur goes to say but Alex stops him
Ace goes to the living room accompanied by Elijah "Mr. Bianchi Alice doesn't remember anything that has happened in her past" Ace says
Santiago frowns "What do you mean "
"She has lost all her memory but she remembers you, " Ace replies
"Is this what it was today and how can we be sure that he is not changed or he doesn't have any bad intentions. We can't take any risks regarding our sister specially when we have got her back a few months ago. We have to protect her from everyone as her brothers" Elijah asks Ace
"Got her back?" San asks
"Ace John is calling you" Issac says
*in Steve's room*
Steve thinks opening the bottle of alcohol "I don't know what to think about this how can this be true I hope that boy was lying. I think he is lying but why would he. He is lying why would a mother do that to her own child after all a mother's love is greater than anything in this world"
Steve drinks 2 bottles of Alcohol preserved in his room thinking about all the possibility but comes to one conclusion that Santiago is lying and he falls asleep.
*in Alice's room*
"Everything is fine and she is awake now. I think it was because of stress" Dr. John says
Ace nods and the Dr. leaves Alice's brothers enter her room except Santiago as he was stopped by Arthur.
"Magnolia" Ace calls her sitting by her side
She didn't reply making all her brother's worry
Elijah leans down touching her hand "Baby"
Staring at the ceiling she blinks making a tear roll down her eye
"Magnolia baby can you please look at me" Ace requests in a soft voice
She looks at him "Can you please let San come in?"
He nods and sends Nate to bring Santiago
ALICE ROMANO (POV)
I- I don't understand. I can't even lie that I don't understand this I can't even say that I was not suspecting that I was being abused. I know I can't remember everything but that doesn't mean it will stop me from knowing what happened to me.
"Magnolia baby can you please look at me" Ace says
"Can you please let San come in?" I look around and see all my brothers are in my room
"Sweetheart" he sits in front of Ace. I go to him and hug him and cry
"I am sorry I didn't know" He says
"no can you tell me what happened? you said-" I was cut off by Elijah
"Bambina I don't think you should stress about this now. Let's discuss about this later"
"I think it is better for her to know now so that she can rest later" San says
Elijah nods
"You promise you will not think too much about it?" San asks
I nod
"do you want us to leave" Elijah asks
I look at him and Issac "No"
"She used to abuse you that is how I met you for the first time and then we met frequently later I did try to make you stay with me but my situation wasn't good for some time and you were in hopes that she will change and love you but she never did. She started to abuse you more frequently and mercilessly, you didn't come to me or listen to me to leave her side you loved her but she didn't but one day she abused you so bad that you understood she will not change-"
"That day when you I agreed and promised me that I don't have to go back to her?" I ask
He nods " Yes I had to send you back because I had to do some official things to keep you by my side. I did come to her house to take you with me after the work was done but you were gone along with her and your room was not in a good condition. I really tried to find you I did but I couldn't find you I am sorry sweetheart"
*flashback (Alice locked in her room)*
"You can take her I don't need her but for that you need to pay me. I have been feeding her for so long I invested my time and money in her and if all the things I have done is going to waste it is unfair to me." Mother says
"How much do you need " I hear a man's voice
"100,000 dollars after all it is my invention"
"Ok bring her hear I will give you all the money" the man says
"First give me my money " mother argues
there is silence "here take it" the man says
My mother laughs "She is sold to you now you can do whatever you want she is in that room"
*flashback ends*
"Sweetheart?" San calls me
"I-" I start crying
"did you have a flashback bambina?" Noah asks only he has seen me when I had flashbacks
I nod at him "Do you want to tell what was it about" he asks
I look down in my lap and nod more tears flowing through my eyes
Looking at San I was about to say "This man did some thing didn't he?" Nate asks
"I knew we can't believe a stranger and he is spewing nonsense from the time he came" Nate continues
I look at Noah "Shut up Nate" he says
"San I- I" I exhale a shaky breathe
"sweetheart if you don't want to say it's ok" he says
"You couldn't find me b-because I was sold by her for 100,000 dollars" I say
"What the hell" Alex says
"I CAN"T BELIEVE THIS LADY" Arthur shouts I look at him
"I am not lying Arthur I promised I am not lying" I say
He comes closer and says"I know Cara I know you are not lying I trust you "
I look around all my brothers are at their place not moving a bit
"I promise I didn't want this I didn't want this I am not lying. I will say exactly what happened in the flashback" I say
"Sweetheart " San says
"No I will tell you what I remember I don't want anyone to think I am lying" I say and tell them everything
