Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bella's Home

A young girl sits somewhat impatiently at the bottom of the staircase, staring out at the front door of her home, as well as the two windows on either side of it. Within ten minutes, her slave would arrive. Unless of course, they were late dropping him off, in which case they of course wouldn't be receiving more than half the amount she was to give them. Bella, though, wasn't very much excited for his arrival than she was scared. The information the shop had given her did not suffice; the only thing Bella was able to get out of them was his name, gender and race. No photos or anything. And when they went on to tell her of his race, they included 'half human' but nothing else. Though they assured her he was well worth the fourteen thousand she had invested in him. The amount disappointed her- they shouldn't be able to put a price on a human, or half human, especially not one like fourteen thousand. But, Bella promised herself she would try hard not to give in to any sympathy she felt for this man- He was to help her with her grandmother and serve as a sort of companion for her. She wondered how well that would work out.

When she noticed the black van pull up in front of the house, her face lit up and she stood. With a deep, nervous breath, she walked toward the front door, taking a step back as who appeared to be her new slave was pushed into her house. "He isn't dirty, is he?" The girl asked curiously, checking him over. Sighing, she looked up at the man holding the key and papers for her to sign and she shifted her weight uneasily. Once she took it from him, signed and then put the key into her pocket, her eyes were back on Danny. Seeing that the men hadn't yet left reminded her of the money and she quickly pulled it out, mouthing an 'oh' before handing it over. It paid for the man in full with a small tip for each of them, even though she felt as if they should have been here with her order much earlier. Once everything was done, she shut the door on the guards and locked it, turning on her heel to face Danny. "Uhh..." Now what? "Oh yeah!" She said, pulling out the key and unlocking the cuffs from his hands. She put them down on the steps of the staircase and forced a smile. "Er.....Hello! Welcome, I guess..." Bella managed to make pretty much everything awkward. "I'm Bella...I live here with my grandma, and now you I guess! What's your name?" She introduced, her fast speaking a result of her nervousness at the moment. Of course, she already knew his name, but she still felt like it'd be better for him to introduce himself to her rather than her just calling him by his name first and possibly scaring him.

Bella nodded in response to his question, though she said nothing of it. She bit her lip, then her tongue as she stifled back laughter at his question. Well, it wasn't really his question. It was just that the title of Mistress made her giggle. "Oh, please don't call me that. I'm Bella! B-e-l-l-a..Bella." The girl replied once she was able to stifle back the laughter. "Well..uh, cleaning for one thing. Like, do the dishes and mop the floors. You'll also have to help me take care of my grandmother- she's sick. It's really just serving her food and helping her get dressed every once and a while." Bella searched her mind for anything else but came up blank. There wasn't much else to do except keep her company, something she decided to leave out for now. "Come on, I'll show you your room." She said, motioning for him to follow her up the stairs. She stopped at the door, opening it and stepping back so he could see the room. "It's connected to mine." She added, pointing to the door in the room on the side that lead into her own room.

Bella smiled, giggling a little when he mentioned feeling uncomfortable. "That's understandable. Not even I like to. She can do it herself sometimes, but she might need help sometimes...I guess I can do that." Bella replied, feeling as if she was being too lenient. Well, it wasn't like she was going to force him to dress her grandmother. "I'll leave you alone for the most part should you decide to come in here during the day." She said, crossing her arms over her chest. "Are you hungry?" Bella asked softly.

Bella gave him a one over and nodded her head in agreement. "I thought so." She replied, going to grab his hand but instead taking his wrist, then leading him back down the stairs and into the kitchen. There was pretty much everything and anything edible there, mostly because Bella was the one who did the shopping and thought everything she saw in the stores would be necessary at home. Sighing softly and pursing her lips, she poured him a cup of water and handed it to him. "What do you usually eat? I can make you some soup if you want." The girl suggested, shrugging as she began pulling out some stuff needed to make her own food. She wondered what the slaves were fed in the shop, but she doubted it tasted good.

Bella raised an eyebrow at his response. "Oh...Gross. Uh.." She replied softly, beginning to make the soup. "Well...You don't have to worry about that anymore. I'll make sure you eat right. If you know how to cook you can start making your own meals." Bella assured him, waiting patiently for the soup to finish cooking, stirring it every few seconds. Once it was done, she drained out some of the water, pouring it into two separate bowls. After placing a spoon into each, she went to set it down on the table. "It's hot, so be careful." She warned, patting the seat next to her where she'd put his bowl.

Bella watched him closely as he took his first bite, clapping her hands together once at his response. Afterward, she began to eat hers, which was gone within seconds. "I'm glad you like it." She said happily. "Hopefully it's better than moldy bread." She joked, laughing softly. "So tell me...How long have you been in the shop for?" She asked curiously, seeing as she knew very little of the boy.

Bella frowned, regretting asking the question as she stood up and took their bowls into the kitchen, leaving them in the sink. She returned to the table and sat down, putting a hand on his shoulder. "It's alright. You won't have to return there any time soon, I promise." She said, trying to be nice. Instead of saying anything a little more comforting, she decided to change the subject. "Well...Tell me about yourself. So far the only thing I know is that your name is Danny, you're a guy and you're half human. I don't even know how old you are." She told him, forcing an awkward smile that looked a little too fake. He didn't look much older than her, though that wasn't the main thing she wanted answered. She just wanted to know more about him, and hopefully get him to tell her what the other half of his race was.
