Kim was surprised by the fact that Carla started screaming again just because Ethan walked towards her to go up the stairs, and Ethan rolled his eyes about it as he complained walking up the stairs. The poor girl was so scared and Kim felt so badly for Carla, she had made a point never to actually hate the people she had to give money to for the family as the bookie. Though Liz had done enough to cause Kim to break her own rule, if she wasn’t just the brain of things, if she was the muscle or the head of the family, that woman wouldn’t even be alive…….okay no, Kim could never kill someone maybe just beat her into the place she belonged. 

[b]”I mean that I told you this morning when I brought you here, that I didn’t want to hurt you.”[/b] She told her voice a soft coo, she didn’t want Carla to be afraid of her, that wasn’t why she bought her. Kim shook her head frowning when she if it was a dream, she seemed on the verge of crying again and Kim watched her sadly. As much as she wished to climb the stairs and wrap her arms around the girl, she didn’t want to frighten her even more. [b]”It’s fine mia carissima, I understand you are afraid…I have been hit by worse.”[/b] She answered keeping her same soft tone, a slight smile creeping onto her lips. It likely was foolish to turn her back to Carla by she knew enough from when she had helped Kim, that Carla wouldn’t hit her again. It also helped that Kim had a gun strapped to her leg under her dress. 

In the kitchen Ethan brought her a towel for her arm and Kim muttered a grazie to him smiling, there really wasn’t any reason for Carla to be afraid of Ethan. He had no interest in the woman and he was checking the wound on Kim’s arm, which turned out to be just a deep scratch after the blood was gone. She noticed the fact that Carla looking at Ethan before starting to answer her question, the fact that it felt like a dream wasn’t a surprise though, and the men had drugged her with drugs and Kim was unsure of what they used. It would be hard to figure it out without asking them, and Kim did not want to go back to ask them either. 

Carla said she remembered her face which despite her trying not to, it caused her to blush slightly and she looked away as Ethan raised an eyebrow smirking. Kim listened quietly as Carla told her what she remembered, she didn’t know who Hale was though and Ethan cleared his throat. [b]”I’m sorry but that was my…you called me this Hale person.”[/b] He said softly to her, she had called him Hale before she realized he wasn’t and tried to hit him. He really was trying to help though it likely wouldn’t.

Carla was on the fall in the corner, crying, in a ball and it broke Kim’s heart slightly, she took a deep breath before looking at Ethan. (Italian) [b]”Why don’t you leave so we can talk Ethan?”[/b] Ethan nodded his head slowly, before turning and walking out of the kitchen to the living room to his bowl and watching TV. After he was gone Kim took the two bowls putting and spoon in each before slowly walking over to Carla. [b]”Please, stop crying Carla. And I will explain, but please hear me out all the way, okay?”[/b] She said softly as she sat on the floor in front of her a little ways, and pushed the bowl to her slightly, she took a bite of her own soup looking at her. She didn’t know if Carla would think something was wrong with the soup in her site of mind, by both bowls came from the same pot. 

[b]”Your cousin Liz, you are aware that she owes the wrong people money right?”[/b] She started slowly, she didn’t know if Carla knew this or not, she didn’t know if she lived with Liz because she hadn’t seen Carla answer the door when she came to collect. [b]”I would like to assure you that my brothers had nothing to do with what happened. The Grasso’s do a lot of things, but we don’t kidnap people for our money. Your cousin had you kidnapped so she could sale you for the money. When I came to collect she told me she would have the money tonight, and told what she had done. I bought you before those other…..sick bastards could.”[/b] She said shaking her head her voice becoming darker a bit at the end, before she took a deep breath and ate some more soup.
