Debt Repayment

A stout man wearing a Hat and holding a Gun appeared before me. He pointed the gun while Daddy knelt in front of him.

"Dad!" I called my father.

The man looked at me from head to toe. I was shaking with fear and nervousness at that time. My mind was floating while we looked at each other.

"She is!" Daddy shouted.

I was surprised by what he said and didn't understand what he meant. Even the man was surprised by what he said and turned to look at me again.

"She's a virgin!" he added.

"You mean you're going to make your daughter pay for what you owe me?" the man confirmed.

"I can't pay you anything but her!" my father replied.

The man smirked, and he came to me. I could hardly breathe because of the tightness in my chest. How could my father give me away? Why would he make me pay for his debts? Am I really that burdened by him?

Many questions come to my mind as to why my father was able to say that. But when I thought he could die at the hands of the man before us, I understood him. I can't let my father lose his life in front of me. I love him very much.

"Hmmm, I don't need someone like me. But I can give you as a gift for my two children's birthdays," the man said with a smile.

"Who are you? Why are you doing this to us?" I was emotional at that time.

"I'm Conrad, the CEO of Casino de Pablo," the man introduced himself to me.

"Your father owes me a lot. I have supported him for a long time, but he is losing my patience," the man answered firmly.

"Come with him, Amarah!" my father ordered.

He didn't even think twice about telling me this. I was hurt but even more broke seeing my father kneeling while the man's gun was pointed at him.

"Remember that I love you very much, Dad," I told him, crying.

"I'm coming with you, just don't hurt him. I'm begging you," I begged the man.

"Obedient daughter. He is lucky to have you," the man said with a smile.

"Follow me!" he ordered.

I took a deep breath to calm myself. I also stared at my father briefly while wiping my tears. Instead of being sad, he just looked at me seriously. I couldn't stand it, so I ran closer to him to hug him.

"I'll go ahead, Dad. Please take care of yourself," I said, crying.

I heard the man calling me loudly, so he pushed me away from him.

"Leave!" he yelled at me.

I felt like I would die from the pain in my chest then. I said goodbye to take my other clothes that were inside my suitcase. The man agreed, and I ran up to the room.

I hugged my bed and pillow tightly while crying. It was a few minutes before I went downstairs again and left the house.

I didn't even look at my father because it would only hurt me more if I did that. I just thought that I would work far away to help him.

"Get inside the car!" the man ordered.

When I entered the car, I was speechless and didn't want to speak. I was shaking while I rubbed my two sweaty hands.

"My sons will surely be happy with the gift they will receive on their birthday," he said, smiling at me.

I'm still not talking because I'm afraid of him. I'm also thinking about Daddy; how is he? What is he doing now? And where will this man take me now?

My mind was in chaos at that time. My mind was filled with fear and many questions.

"Speak up. I want to hear something from you, Amarah," the man said.

His voice became calm compared to before, so the fear I felt inside his car was relieved.

"Where are we going?" I asked curiously.

"You will know later. I will introduce you to my sons," he answered.

I took a deep breath to calm myself. I couldn't help but feel nervous while we were inside the car. I couldn't get my father out of my mind and the place I was going with this older man. I was afraid of what would happen to me, but I had no choice but to decide. I can't back down because my father will be killed if I do that.

"We're here," he said seriously and descended the stairs.

I immediately got out of the car and was amazed at what I saw. A vast and beautiful mansion. This vast mansion is white and gold in color, so it's relaxing to look at.

"Your mansion is stunning, Sir," I said in amazement.

"Follow me," he replied thoughtfully.

I immediately followed him inside his mansion. I looked around every space and was amazed at what I saw. Just now, I saw a villa surrounded by gold.

"Come on! I want you to meet my sons," he said calmly.

I was very nervous when I heard what he said. What will his sons do to me? Why would he give me as their birthday present?

I took a deep breath to ease the weight of my feelings until we reached the spacious living room.

"Hey, Sons!" he called.

I immediately looked at the two men sitting on the sofa. One man stood up and turned to us. I was amazed at how handsome he was. Blue eyes, blonde curly hair, pointed nose, white complexion, and masculine body. He approached us with a smile. But before he could get closer, I turned my attention to the man sitting quietly on the sofa while reading a book. I don't know why he looks so attractive despite being quiet. Black hair, brown eyes, pointed nose, perfect jawline, fair complexion. His handsomeness can't be denied compared to his brother. He looks earnest and mysterious.

I heard his father calling him. And I listened to his beautiful name. His name is William.

"Amarah?"

I didn't realize I was stunned momentarily while staring at his beautiful and mysterious face.

"Hey, Amarah!"

S—Sir?" I stammered.

"Are you okay?" Sir Conrad asked me.

"Yes, Sir. I'm good," I answered.

"Okay, here's my son, Zeus!" he introduced his son with a smile.

"Hi, Amarah. I'm Zeus," the handsome man in front of me introduced himself with a smile.

I turned my eyes to the mysterious man who was with Zeus.

"William, introduce yourself to Amarah," Sir Conrad ordered him.

"William," he said sparingly and returned to the sofa.

I saw Sir Conrad shake his head at what William did. He was uninterested in me, and I don't know why I was disappointed. I looked at myself from the bottom. And he asked why I would be disappointed.

"Can I have her tonight, Dad?" Zeus asked.

I immediately looked at Sir Conrad, waiting for him to answer Zeus's question. Is this the beginning of my ordeal?
