eccentric man chapter one Writer/ Nada Mohsen The sun shines on a beautiful face, yes it is Rose, the beautiful girl who spreads happiness everywhere, she lives with her stepmother and she is a good woman with only her two children, but with Rose she is very cruel, she keeps asking her for deadly things, from cleaning, to going to shopping, serving her in everything she and her children, Rose moved her head several times, trying to get up: “I have to get up, there is a lot of work to do,” she said, standing in front of the woman after her, as she adjusts her clothes. She came out of her room to see her stepmother eating with her children. She had two children, "Emalia and Sam", who are Rose's brothers from her deceased father, and she had two young men from her ex-husband, "James and Joseph." James was two years older than Rose, and Joseph of the same age, Rose approached, feeling somewhat anxious about her stepmother's fickle mood, and spoke hesitantly: “Good morning, stepmother, sorry for sleeping so long but…” Rose spoke, and her stepmother stopped her by raising her hand; Until Rose stops talking. James intervenes when he finds his mother is going to start scolding Rose and possibly hitting her: "No problem, Rose, sit down and eat. Come on, I'll take you somewhere." James said, trying to change the conversation. Rose was so amazed why he was treating her so kindly! Where will he take her soon? She feels a lot of confusion and doesn't feel comfortable with him at all. She sat and ate, thinking about her father, how he was cruel to her after her mother's death, knowing that he did not love her mother, knowing that he did not even respect her, but why did he continue with her! Why didn't he break up with her? She closed her eyes after feeling a lot of pain. She woke up at James's hand, who put her on her shoulder. She wondered as she looked at him to pull his hand. He noticed her looks and refused to put his hand on her in any way. He nodded to her in understanding: "I wanted to tell you we're going, go change your house clothes, put something nice come on" James said and then went to his room to change his clothes. She stayed where she was, knowing full well that if she refused, she would be beaten by her stepmother and they would not let her eat. Rose's tears fell with great pain, all her wish became to live a quiet life away from problems, she remembered her small house with her mother before she passed away and came here, how warm this house was before she lived in this house where she does not feel belonging, indeed she went to her room And she wore an elegant dress, her heart was trembling and she didn't know why, why all this time! James won't hurt her, but he's also scaring her in his own way, so what should she do to calm down a bit! After they got out of the house, he made her get in his car to sit next to him and start driving away from the house. He looked at her out of the corner of his eye before paying attention to the road again: "Are you still mad at my mom?" He asked her with interest. Rose looked at him and shook her head in denial. "I'm not angry with your mother, anyway she doesn't like me, but I feel bad that she doesn't even want me to get close to my brothers! She doesn't want me to deal with them and I don't know why?!" Rose spoke, distressed in her voice. James did not speak after that and continued his driving, she was following the road with her eyes, she noticed that he was moving away from the highway, the more he traveled, the calmer it became and the sun disappeared. "What's going on, James, where are we going?" Rose asked him bewildered, but he did not pay attention to her talk. Parked in front of a strangely shaped house, with lots of lights uncomfortable to the eye, Rose looked at James in distress: "What are we doing here, James! Tell me what's going on here?!" Rose asked, distressed in her voice. James smiled as he watched her features, nodding his head in negation as he looked into her eyes: "You don't need to be afraid, girl, I'm just going to make you have a really good time, no need to think about anything else," said James, touching her cheek and dragging her into the house. She was watching everything around her in great astonishment, marveling at the people around her, all drunk and unaware of everything that was happening around them, the liquor everywhere, the gambling tables around them, Rose stopped walking, moved her head in denial, not accepting to come any closer: "Leave my hand James, I don't want to stay here, let me go to my father's house," she said, trembling, Rose was a tender girl who could not even defend herself, could not speak of her own affairs, how her father had treated her before And the treatment of her stepmother made her a cowardly girl, James was taking advantage of this to the worst, his friends approached him with a disgusting smile: "What's going on here! Who is that beautiful James?" one of his friends asked him, Rose looked worried as she saw them approaching her, one of them tried to put his hand on her shoulder to get away and hit his hand. She spoke angrily, "Get away from me, don't you dare approach me in any way, do you understand!" James smiled sarcastically as he shook his head in denial, "Stop acting, Rose, you don't need to play the innocent girl now." Rose turned away, feeling her heart trembling, "James let me go if you'll excuse me, I didn't do anything bad, let me go please." Rose heard his friends giggling as he watched her with amusement, Rose's tears fell as she walked away and one of James's friends grabbed her and smiled sarcastically, "You don't need to act, girl, be a nice girl so you don't get hurt, tell us how someone can be so beautiful!" Rose anxiously swallowed her throat, she raised her hand to slap him and then shove him and run away, she was running and James followed her with anger and fear at once, angry at her disobedience to him, and much in fear of his mother knowing everything going on here. Rose doesn't know where she got all that strength to run like this while she's spinning in closed places like in a maze or something, her tears fell in great pain and her chest rose and fell, she saw one of the huge transport cars and she sat down with both hands to her mouth in fear, wishing not to Someone finds her and hopes she is well in this place, she sees James turn away, looking for her, and smiles at ease. I waited for him to go to get out and run away from this place, trying to remember the main road to go there and stop a taxi, it really worked. She was a smart, skilled, quick-witted girl. She smiled as soon as she got into the taxi, she was going to go home straight but Worried that James would go now and be reprimanded by her stepmother, she decided to go to her mother's house, which had been abandoned for a long time and no one went there. Rose took a deep breath while standing in front of him, thanking God very much that she had found some money to give to the driver of the car, she took out a necklace with an old key and it seemed to be the key to this house, but as soon as she approached the house she saw light coming from inside through a hole in the door so what He might be waiting for it!
