Capítulo 13: Run away tonight!
It had been 3 and a half month since I got my degree, and since I had started my physiotherapy with samara. With brain becoming the dean I heard even Chris was getting his degree handed at the beginning of 2nd year itself while someone else works in his stead for his final year project.
A lot had happened during these months though, I still remember the day Brian handed me my degree I cried a lot. Those were all the silent cries yet samara had somehow understood them and confronted me like a mother. That was the time I genuinely apologized to her, I never felt the presence of a mother like one from her. That day she told me of her both the daughter being caught by mafia and what terrible consequences they suffered, they died due to lack of care physically as well as mentally. Samara never want to see any girl or survivor go down that line, she always felt if she was in time she could have saved her daughters so now she takes cares of such girls like a mother. Today I just kept looking at her remembering that story as she brought me lunch and really wished she would feed it to me with her own hands, but I could never bring myself to ask that from her.
"Aphie dear are you lost somewhere?" Samara snapped me out of my train of thoughts and as I looked at her a lump formed in my throat, I wanted to say thank you, I just for once wanted to call someone caring 'MOM!' My eyes locked with hers as tears welled up and I immediately looked away. Samara asked again with concern, "Dear what's wrong? The food will get cold, eat up fast we want good nutrition entering your body!" I chuckled at that 'as always going on about the temperature'
I smiled and started eating all the food she served with all that care and love. To be honest she has taken care of me more than my mother would have. In the past 3 months we finished my physiotherapy and restored my physique, on top of that she made me work hard day and night to gain all my fight instincts back on line. Surprisingly samara was too good at fighting and teaching as all, so good it scared me. We have had 34 matches in total yet and I only won 15 of them.
"Aphie once you are done eating take some rest and meet me on the training ground after about an hour and half, till then I will set up everything" samara got up from the table and headed out after saying that, I just nodded in reply. The snow had melted away so we could practice in the training ground. I thought I was kept captive in the very building I was living in but reality is always different, this was a mansion with big land area surrounding and heavy security. Escape was no chance for me if I were to do it alone.
After I finished my lunch I took a break and looked way long into the stretch of land that surrounded us, 'should I get samara in on this!? I am still skeptical of it but I believe she understands this better than anyone else how hurtful this situation is for me'. I have been thinking of this for a long time and I am going to ask samara to help me today. So I got ready with my clothes on for practice and went down where samara had just finished cleaning up and arranging equipment.
Samara looked at me and her face beamed up, "Aphie! Never on time! lets start with warmup first". I smiled at her, "yes! Mind for another match with me today samara?" I asked it to her in a provoking way, she always gets happy after a good duel which ends in my victory. So I plan on winning today no matter what and when I win I'm gonna take that opportunity to ask her for my escape. Today is perfect I feel my best and my mind is practically ready for a win.
"Yes darling lets have a friendly match at the end of today's session" samara said it with a smile and I went in for the practice session.
We practiced with The wing-chun dummy for a while, then perfecting those kicks and punches and postures.... Samara gave a special lesson on blocking techniques today and went against me while I only stayed defensive. 'She is so good!' She must have a lotta tricks up her sleeves which I haven't known of yet, it's hard to believe she is just a caretaker.
We were done 15 min late than our usual time, samara looked at the clock and said, "oh dear look at the time! Lets have our bout of sparring tomorrow we better go inside before the sun dips into the mountains". Normally I would have agreed but not today! I insisted, "samara I'm feeling very lively today lets have a fight, it will take 15 minutes the first to be out of the ring loses" I wanted to escape before brian or chris returns here and I am not gonna slack around anymore. If chris gets his degree they will return and I need to be out before that happens.
"Are you feeling lucky today dear?" Samara chuckled, "lets have a small match using the white ring then, make sure you win fast or I will" samara came inside the Practice ring. There were two rings lined a small white one and a large red one, we usually used the red one of our matches but since she said white one it just got tougher now! It was only 12-15 foot in diameter it sounds big enough but for a fight its still small.
"Okay its ON!" I exclaimed as I went inside the ring and loosened up. "Whenever you are ready aphie!" Smiled samara gesturing me to attack. I ran at her as if I was to push her and she anticipated it letting my momentum do the deed of taking me out of the ring. But I caught her by her waist and jerked her with my momentum pushing her outside, or so I thought.
She was quick to catch on and got grip of my wrist, with all her strength she lifted me up on her back and threw my to the ground. "In a hurry are we!? Have some fun dear" Samara walked to the opposite end waiting for me to get up. There were lots of advantages she had on me here but I had made up my mind, today I will ask her to help me escape! And irrespective of her response I will run away tonight!
