CHAPTER TWENTY NINE

CHAPTER TWENTY NINE
Rosetta's pov

Matteo had wanted to see me again, guess it blew his mind that we talked again at breakfast. I finally had someone to talk to, someone who didn't want to have my neck.

The night breeze was chilly, I took note of that as I walked side by side with Matteo, he had his hands in his pocket as he maintained peaceful strides while keeping up with my pace. I was very happy to be out here with him, I didn't mind that I was losing hours of sleep, it felt good to have a friend.

When he came to call me from my room I didn't want to answer the door but decided to having in mind that he might be the one, glad I didn't ignore the knock.

"So what were you doing when I came, it kind of took you a while to open the door," he said finally speaking since we came outside.

"Nothing, I didn't want to answer the door, you know it's weird having someone knock on my door, people here all want to knock me out, not my door," I said and he chuckled, he was so free to talk to, I didn't need to pretend like I liked anybody and it was good.

"I understand, I do not blame you honestly, I wouldn't have opened the door myself but it's good you did, and for that, I owe you breakfast, you just stay indoors and I'll get your breakfast for you, how about that?" He said and I smiled, it was an awesome idea not having to get breakfast myself or stand in a queue with people who don't see me as a person, hell yeah it was a solid idea.

"Deal, if it's sandwich gets me extra ham please," I said and he chuckled.

"Alright deal"

We walked for a few more minutes gisting like we had always known each other.

"Seriously, I just feel it's underrated"

"So let me get this straight, you are saying prison food is underrated? Are you kidding me?" Matteo said with a glint of wonder in his eyes, I smiled as I pat his arms.

"Maybe when you get there someday you'll remember these words, look they have this special, don't know how it is in other prisons but they have this special of beef and white rice, there's a certain way they arrange it, nothing fancy but man the taste is out of this world I kid you not," I said and Matteo nodded his head, he looked like he was enjoying my prison story, we laughed about my hype for prison food as we neared the court where we did our first training.

Asher was there, he sat down with two men and the moment we walked towards there as if he was waiting for somebody he looked up from where he sat and straight at me, then to my hands on Matteo's shoulders back at me. I didn't pay him or the rest of the men he sat with any attention as I continued my walk with Matteo.

"Asher seemed to have been staring at your hand on my shoulders h-"

"He can look all he wants, that's his problem, not mine," I said and he nodded his head slowly.

"It's hard to miss the whole feud you two have going on but I don't think he is someone to be messed with," Matteo said and I sighed, not him too.

I knew Asher wasn't somebody I should toy with, if he wasn't the person my revenge was targeted on he would have been the appropriate person to ask for help, I didn't care what they said about him I was going to end him either way.

"I should be getting back to my room, our task for tomorrow sounds stressful, we need to rest up," I said smiling as I looked up at Matteo, there was a lot of difference in our height and it was cute.

"That's alright, you need your sleep"

"Just don't forget our deal," I said grinning and he chuckled.

"Yeah, more ham, I won't forget" he repeated and I smiled, waved, and went back to my room, the moment my back hit the bed I went out.
………………..

Terrible sleeping position, I thought to myself as I tried to stretch out my stiff shoulder, I didn't even take off my clothes yesterday when I got in.

Done with everything for today I got ready for today's task, there was no certain task for today but I knew it was going to require more energy, it was past morning already,

While I was getting ready Matteo had brought me the breakfast he promised me. I completely forgot about that but it was cute watching him fidget with the small plate. Smiling I got up from the bed and went towards the sink to drink water before I ate, I grabbed the food from the table just beside my bed, it was covered with transparent nylon and had a tiny pink sticky note stuck to it, I removed it and read the note,

"I didn't forget the ham" There was a smiley face at the end of the note that made me chuckle. Sweet.

I tore the nylon off and sat on my bed, I couldn't believe I slept throughout breakfast. Without thinking much of it I put the bread in my mouth biting down on soft cheese and lots of ham it was so good my mouth felt like it was about to have a mini orgasm, bopping my head happily as I ate, when I was done I rested for a while before getting up to drink water from the sink.

"Fuck" I groaned out feeling pain at my sides, I must have rushed the sandwich, I thought as I bent to drink, few seconds into drinking the water, I fell, holding my stomach as I kept groaning in pain.

It couldn't be cramps right, because why had I started coughing blood?
