Nicolas:
I met her, she was unknown, a stranger, I had been observing her as I was walking down the street, she was looking exhausted as she was running from someone,she was continuously looking backwards assuring whether she is safe or not,when she collided to me.Her dark brown locks, met my face and I was somehow attracted to her smell, she had those perfect chocolate brown eyes, I stared... I was mesmerized for a minute, when her sweet angelic voice feasted my ears.
" please help me... hide" without wasting a second, I did the same, somehow I was stunned at myself, what was I doing.I found myself obeying ... her.๐ ๐ช๐จ๐ฉ ๐ก๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ฃ ๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ก ๐ ๐๐จ๐จ, ๐จ๐๐ ๐ข๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ ๐ค๐๐๐ฎ ๐๐๐ง.I looked at her, she clutched my jacket, strongly, was she feeling safe???The irony is she seeked help from the most bloody hungry assassin, whose hands are drained in blood.But I never want to vanish off the assurance her eyes carry, I can't do this no.
I called her Bambina, she was perplexed, I can say.
Her features told me.She wasn't accquinted to Italian, I guess.She was looking downwards when she talked to me.I had the strongest urge to gently lift that pointed chin and make her face me, but I did the contrary.I was looking at her, she was trying hard to maintain her posture, since my face was slightly covered she wasn't able to completely look at my face.
๐๐๐ ๐ข๐๐ฉ ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ก ๐ฉ๐ค๐๐๐ฎ.She finally questioned , about my name, only if she knew.
She wouldn't dare to do so again.But I involuntarily blabbered my name, Nico , the one mom used to call me.I don't know why, but I told her ,a strong force compelled me to do so, and I did it.I never ever told anyone my nickname, or none ever dared to ask.I am only Capo in the world of blood, drugs and Mafia.
A person everyone fears, a name whose existence is enough to drop a shiver in spines.I let her go, she was looking flabbergasted yet I did, not before knowing name, Sofia.
...............................................................
"Layla was asking for you" Luka smiled playfully pouring a glass of red wine." So?? tell her I'm busy!! "
" Busy.. I see... who is she, should I tell Layla, that Capo is no more interested in her?? "He said wiggling his eyebrows, he seldom does such stuff, which annoys me." What do you want Luca?? " I asked him, maintaining a calm tone." you tell me who is she?? simple!! "" I don't know who are you talking about "
" the one to whom, a bouquet of flowers are sent on regular basis, the one about whom every single information is extracted, the one who was followed till that hotel, assuring she reached safely there"he keenly smirked.I took the nearest knuckle duster from my table and threw it to him, in the speed of light.
" woah" he caught it in a millisecond." you are intending to kill me,... this soon, so tell me should I clear Layla, that Capo, the great isn't anymore interested in her??"" yeah, clear her expenses, I wouldn't be seeing her anymore?? "" you sure?? "" yeah, otherwise I wouldn't be telling you!!! " he nodded and gave me an assuring smile.
I sipped my wine thinking about the newly met girl Sofia.Sophia Costantinovich.๏ฟผ

Sofia:
It's july seven, his birthday, as I completely remember.Since the past three years, I was the one celebrating his birthday with him.Paul wasn't really fond of birthdays, but I was.
I used to think why not make a day special, with someone's presence you require the most.I still remember, on his last birthday when we kissed, he immediately put me in his embrace.
A commotion of feelings almost aroused in my heart that time.Who knew, the one I had feelings for will never reciprocate the feelings.
He never confessed it, was just a simple liking enough?
He considered the bond we shared was just a mere infatuation.I knew there isn't a hope, my message will straight go to the voice call, but strangely he picked.
He picked my call.I jumped out of excitement, sometimes even a mere thing can make your heart fluttered and it did." Hii, Paul... how are you?? " I Chirped
" good, you? "" Happy birthday to my dearest friend present " my excitements knew no boundaries.My heart was racing, after hearing his voice, it makes you crave for more, when the person appears after a long time.Happens, when a person who is the reason behind your smile talks to you after a long time."thanks... "" It's been ten months and twenty six days since we last met, I thought you were busy!!! ""are you even counting?? " he let's a deep sigh.
" anyways, Sophie, listen... I'm just here to tell you, I'll be busy for another two months "" so shall we meet??? anywhere you want?? "" I guess, due to my busy schedule it isn't possible!! "
" ohh....have you thought something about us?? Paul?? " this time I straight away asked that question.
" look Sophie, I also wanted to talk to you about this!! I just need time.. please don't force me, on something I don't want "
" I understand!! " I said and cut the call.Eleven months weren't sufficient I guess for him.
In this time I almost thought of him every second.
I don't know, he considers it a mere infatuation, is it so??
Hope I could sort out this.He considers me a friend, a good friend, do friends kiss??I've never heard of this.I hadn't talked to Vanessa since three days, my dad's men will be after her if I do so.
Vanessa must have tried to contact me, but I changed the number, this is safe for both of us.
I know dad will try his best to reach me,therefore I had already planned out everything.
I'll be flying to Rome the other day, I don't think, I'll be able to continue my counselling job anymore, but I'll be applying for the job as soon as I reach there.My bank balance I have saved till date is running out, I just can't sit and expend everything.
I can't seek dad's help, I know, he'll definitely reach out to me, and cage me in that mansion.Struggling freedom is better than caged peace.At least I'm able to understand the world.Sofia:Landing up in Rome wasn't an easy thing, especially when your dad's minions are everywhere around the international airports. My dad is a really an overprotective father, he tried to dig every single pithole where there was a possibility to find me. Can't an adult live her life peacefully without restrictions? A deep sigh escapes my mouth. The atmosphere of Rome isn't familiar. They speak Italian, most of the people. I can't interpret a single word out of it.I think I need to learn this alien language soon. I applied for a job, nearby, it's a cafe, I'll not be able to apply for any professional job until I get back my documents. I contacted my friend in Italy, he was my colleague when I was pursuing my bachelors in psychology. He assured me to get a xerox of my degree soon. so to clear my expenses I had to work.The people here are not bad, they are not friendly
๐๐๐๐ค๐ก๐๐จ:sitting in front of her, and watch her sipping her Mocha cautiously, made me do an undesirable deed.I had an urge, a sudden urge to touch those luscious lips and to devour the taste inside them.The perfect way on how she is doing so is making me crazy.As I was watching her carefully, a ring of phone breaks my focus.Luca, the caller id says.I immediately picked up the call, for an unknown reason, I don't want to go away from her.Even for a second.That's why I didn't excuse myself and tried to talk to my brother in front of her." Hello Luca!! "" What happened!! ? "" our men at the coast are missing!! "And most probably we still don't know who is the reason behind this sudden turmoil." I'm coming " I said as I hummed in response.I never wanted to leave her sight, I didn't.But I have to.Luca calle
๐๐ค๐๐๐:Another month, and another set of bouquet and that too in Rome too, should I be feeling cherished that someone cares, Or should I be gloomy that someone is stalking. I think latter one is the better option to rely on. These flower bouquets are arriving in my place ever since I left USA. But the most unusual thing is why in Rome?? I don't have much friends in Italy, or should I say, about no friends in Italy. I am a simple girl. I just aspire to fulfill my dreams. But these flowers make me suspicious, that someone is stalking me. It's creepy, a lot. Everytime I think about it, my heart sinks on imagining different kinds of possibilities. Is someone peeping my personal life or more than that?? Initially when this bouquet arrived, I ignored it. Ignored it cause I thought it can be a sending mistake, or a coincidence. It's all mechanical, so we can expect mistake. But now, everything is different. I don
๐๐ค๐๐๐:My eyes went open when I found myself in Carniella's room, bedridden. She was sitting aside me. I fidgeted and my movement attracted her attention. She turned towards me. " you okay?? " she asked with a concerned voice.I crawled my head up and rested on headrest. " yeah just a headache, how come I'm here?? "" you don't remember?? "I shook my head. " you paased out, when the guards informed me, that you were lying outside.Did something happlying"I thought of that blonde guy, his creepy touches, and nothing else. I thought of not creating a scene so I ignored. " may be bad weather, I'm not so used to with this weather"She nodded and gave me a medicine.I thought of leaving, so to not become a burden on Carniella, and obviously not ruin her party, so I asked for my leave. Initially she denied but after giving some careful mommy suggestions, she bid me goodbye. My heart was
๐๐ค๐๐๐:You can't fight your demons, your insecurities lying there at your bed and doing nothing.I know what I'm doing I'm trying to escape this shit.The sadistic environment created in my mind can only be swept off through working.I just have to do so.I can't be there and expect everything to be alright.I started working in the cafe since three days and I'm feeling better.No distraction no insecurities, nothing just peace mind.I was working when I had a glance on him.Nico.Again.after so many days he appeared.I don't know but I had an urge to see him.His eyes have something in this.I ascended my steps to him.And he was standing there, not looking at me.Is he always like this??Ignorant about the surroundings??What's happening around is just untouched to him.I went near him, touched his shoulder an

๐๐๐๐ค๐ก๐๐จ:She asked me for lunch.After years I'm feeling excited.I'm a man earning millions in a day, still not contented but when she invited me ,I couldn't deny.I just couldn't.She wanted it.Her eyes beamed with delight when I nodded my head positively.I'm sure about it.But is it just her who wanted this??Or me??I think this time I know the answer and I'm well aware about it.Yeah I wanted this.Spending time with her.I took a deep breath, when I stood in front of my large mirror placed at my room.My buttons were undone and then I could observe my tattoos.That black ink suiting my persona indicating the kind of monster I am.All around my chest, abdomen, arms and forearms, reminding me of what I'm.I did it for always reminding the ultimate goal of my life, revenge.And his thought crossed my mind, Dimit
