《SimpleMinded》Sister?!

I wake up to the sound of a child giggling. I slowly open my eyes and see Luca playing with Bean and Rafiki.

"Luca, has cepillado los dientes?" He nods his head and I stand up with a groan.

(Did you brush your teeth?)

I rub his head, "I speak English too." I let out a low chuckle and look down at him, "I speak Spanish too." He shows me a pout and I go to brush my teeth and wash my face.

It's been a year since William took Haven away from me. We moved to Cuba days after he took her away. I found Luca secretly living here by himself he was eight at the time, so now he stays with me permanently. You can say I took him in as my son.

"Did you take Bean out?" He nods his head, "Sí, Rafiki stole some more fruit from the market." Rafiki comes running in and hands me an apple, "You lucky it's a green apple and not red. Stop stealing." He screeches at me and holds up his thumb.

My hair has gotten longer and I just shaved not too long ago so my beard is okay. "Volver al trabajo?" I look at Luca and nod my head, "Yep, go wake the others up for me."

(Back to work?)

He runs off and heads to the kitchen. I start making breakfast. "Morning." I look up from the food and see Rylee coming with her hair everywhere, "Bed hair is not for you." She rolls her eyes, "Jay is the worst person to sleep with."

I laugh as I start on the bacon and sausage. "Why you say that?" Rylee and Jay are dating and so are Ty and Kylie.

"He moves in his sleep too much and then he squeezes me so hard while he's asleep or when we're cuddling." I shrug my shoulders, "You'll get used to it." She fixes her hair and stretch, "Need any help?" I shake my head, "No, I'm good."

She shows me a sad smile, "Everyday you cook for us. Why can't we return the favor?" I finish up with the food, I make mine and Luca plate, "I've only really cooked for one person and that was Haven. When she got taken away from me it felt weird not cooking for anyone."

I set her plate in front of her as Luca comes running in, "We fill in for Haven?" I slowly nod my head, "If I offend you I'm sorry." She shakes her head and laughs, "I'm not offended, it's just your way to cope with this situation we're in."

Jay comes in with a smile on his face, "Morning." I look at him with an arch eyebrow, "Why are you smiling so hard?" He shrugs his shoulders, "I feel like something good is going to happen today." I roll my eyes and everybody else comes downstairs.

We eat breakfast and then head to the planning room. I look over at Luca and see him looking guilty, "Que esta mal? You look guilty."

(What's wrong?)

He looks at me and then at his plate, "There's someone unconscious in the backyard." I arch my eyebrow, "What do you mean? Wait, what did you do?" I rush to the back and he follows me.

I look outside and see a man in a black suit unconscious. "Luca, what the hell did you do?!" Luca hides behind Rylee, "I was looking for Rafiki and I saw him sneaking back here." I arch my eyebrow and pat the man down.

"Ty, help me carry him to the planning room." He helps me pick the man up and we carry him to the planning room. I look at Luca and he looks away from me. I walk up to him and pat his head, "Good job. Sorry for yelling at you. You saved us all." He looks at me and then smiles, "You're welcome! Can you buy me an icy?!" I let out a soft laugh, "Yeah, I'll buy you one."

"Strip this man and make sure he doesn't have anything on him like a tracker. Tie him up once you're done." I put a hat and some shades on, "Do you really think it's safe for you to go out?" I look at Clare and shrug my shoulders, "It'll be alright, we're just going for some ice."

We walk outside and head towards the market. "Papa, mas a ests persona que estas buscando?" I look down at Luca, "One don't call me Papa and two mind your business." He starts laughing and I smile as we find a stand.

(Do you love this person you're looking for?)

"Pick out what you want?" He looks at the menu, "I want peach and strawberry." The man smiles at Luca and makes him a cup. I pay the man and hand Luca the icy. "Why can't I call you Papa?"

The market starts getting crowded, "Hang on to my shirt. Because I'm not your Papa. Call Jay or Ty your Papa." He shakes his head, "I want you to be my Papa, so you're going to be my Papa."

I look around and notice a couple men in suits. "Your stubbornness is really reminding me of someone." I start speed walking, "Why are you walking fast?"

I pick Luca up, "Because I see a few suspicious men and I don't want to cross paths with them."

"Tienes miedo? No tengas miedo, Papa." I roll my eyes at the teasing nine-year-old, "I'm not scared, it's called taking precautions. And stop calling me Papa." He starts laughing and put him on my back. "You drop some icy on my back I will not buy you another one ever again."

(Are you scared? Don't be scared, Papa)

Ten minutes later we make it back to our house. "What took you so long?" Ty asks as I put Luca down, "We took a long way. Did you wake the man up?" He nods his head, "Yeah, he just woke up."

We walk in the planning room and he looks at me, "Why were you in my backyard?" He looks at me with something in his eyes, "I was trying to get away from there. I only join them because it paid well, but I don't like what they do."

I arch my eyebrow, "Who is they? What are you talking about?" Luca comes up to me and looks at the man, "He might be scared like you." I hear Rylee and Kylie laugh and I glare at Luca, "I'm not scared to throw a little kid across this room." I push his head away from my face and he laughs.

"The man name is William." I look at back at the man with wide eyes. "Does he have a woman there named Haven?!" He shrugs his shoulders and shakes his head, "I-I don't know." I grab him by his neck, "Tell me!! Where are they hiding?!"

He taps my arm and Jay pulls me off of him, "I'm trying to remember!! H-He does have a woman. He actually has many women, but there is one in particular who stays in a room and not in a cell." Luca walks up to the man and pokes his face, "Why did you run away?"

"Because I don't like what they do." I grit my teeth, "What the hell do he do?! I need to know what he's doing with Haven!" Jay continues to hold me back, "He puts her on display. He puts her and the other women on display as if they are animals."

My words get caught in my throat and I rub my fingers through my hair, "I don't want to hear any more. I don't trust you yet, so you will be in handcuffs. I'm going to my room." I stand up and walk towards my room, "Luca, stay here with everybody else."

I go to my room and fall on my bed. What is the point in doing all of this? What does Haven bring him?

I look up at the ceiling and I grab the first thing I see and throw it at the door. The glass shatters everywhere and the door suddenly opens. "Luca, stay there. Didn't I tell you to stay with everybody else?"

I walk up to him and hold my arms out, "Jump." He jumps and I catch him midair, "What are you going to do?" I shrug my shoulders as I sit back on the bed, "I'm tired of waiting, go tell the others to get ready."

He starts jumping on the bed, "Papa said get ready!!" He shouts as he jumps, "Get ready, get ready!!" I roll my eyes as I hear footsteps coming closer to my room. "You know where's he hiding?" Clare asks as all of them almost step on the shattered glass, "No, but the man in handcuffs does."

"I need you to wait another day." We look towards the unknown voice. Anger rises through my body. I grab Hana by the neck, "Tell me why I shouldn't fucking kill you?!" She pulls out a knife and I snatch it out her hand and put the knife against her neck, "Not the right answer."

"J-Just l-listen to me." I throw her on the bed and she flips off and lands on her feet. "Drop every single weapon on you or will die with more than fifty bullets in your body." I say as I point at Jay and them. Each of them holding a gun and aiming at her.

"Luca, the closet now." He runs in the closet and closes the door. "Tell me your fucking reason in all of this!! Why did you tranq us and not kill us?! Why did you leave us a note?! Who side are you really on?!"

She steps towards me and I shoot by her foot and then hold my gun at her head, "All you need to do is talk."

"You must not have learned from your last lesson. I got in here so easily." I smirk at her, "You came in through the window, right? I left it open for a reason, you knew where we were the minute we moved here."

She looks at me with shock in her eyes, "I decided to play along with you to see when you will show yourself. Although this year has been the longest year of my life, I've waited for you. I caught you one night watching us. I didn't react or tell anyone."

She sits down on the floor, "Tell me why the fuck you're doing all of this?! Not to just anyone, but to your own sister."
