Chapter 36 Battered

• ~Mia~
• It was a long night with Nokio trying to come up with a plan to help Neela. The issue is Steven; he’s so controlling and violent. If we could find a way around Steven, we could help Neela do anything she likes. Steven paying those men to watch Neela makes things even worse.
• I didn’t get much sleep, but I did expect a message from Neela when I got up. My phone had no such message, so I called her. She didn’t answer, which was weird, but I figured that Steven was keeping her from answering. I continued to call her on my way to her place, but I was still met with nothing.
