Mafia's Innocent Witness Chapter 54
Madison Rostov-CunninghamBeautiful Distaster The silence that followed was nerve wrecking. Everyone was giving me sympathetic looks. A tear even fell from Niyler's eye that she quickly wipes away. I focus on the small sips I took from my tea cup which was the only noise in the room. I wish they would say something. Were they disappointed after I summarize to them all that happen? The only part that I left out was the part about being pregnant.I even wish I could have kept it a secret for some time from my friends. I'm not even sure how they found out in the first place. I wish Alec knew, how would he react to such a news? Would he be happy with the idea of being a dad or would he think that it is too soon?"I can't believe I hated the guy. Why didn't I see it before that he was the one taking care of all your financial needs? I feel so bad right now, for being an awful cousin and for hating on a guy who was not as bad as I thought." Harper sulks. It

Niyler RostovRide For You Today will be my first day back to school after missing out two weeks. Stefano returned to school a week ago. He also turned in our chemical reaction project that uncle Micah helped us with. He took the notes for the classes we had together. Kat and Kendra did the same. I didn't see much of him although we are in the same house, when he is not at school he is running errands with my dad or Ms. Francesco. Dad and Stefano have become the best of friends and I'm not sure how I feel about that, especially when they both agree on things related to my life.I did not mind not seeing much of him, we both had different responsibility and by the end of the day he would snuck into bed next to me. It was hard for me to leave Madison, she is so hurt by what happened. She decided to take a year off school and spend that time with us. I was glad that she would be just doors away from me instead of hours. We weren't able to be there for her before so we are glad

Niyler RostovRide For You The wind brushes through my hair the moment I roll the windows down. Jhene Aiko beautiful voice singing, 'let me easy your mind' blasted from the speakers of Stefano's car. He didn't like my taste of music but he likes me so he had to tolerate it. I grin at the thought of how much men had to put up just for the women they like or love. "I still can not believe that Dad agreed to us spending the weekend at the beach house." I say after turning down the music.Stefano glance at me, a smirk present on his handsome face. "Why wouldn't he? Your dad loves me." He says cockily. "I guess you have a point there. I'm starting to feel like he even loves you more than he does me." I pout thinking of all the time they have been spending together lately.Stefano laughs and reaches over to pinch my cheek. "You are cute when you do that. I'm only making fun of you, Bella, no one can take the place you have in Mr. Rostov's heart."I smile. He was

Niyler RostovRide Or Die It has been a month since Alec's passing. Madison was finally ready to get her life back together, she wanted to start with visiting Italy where Alec resting place is. She told Harper and I that she didn't want to do it alone, she asked us to follow her. Although she did not have to ask us. Harper and I had already cancelled all plans when Madison told us what she wanted to do. We planned to be by her side no matter what.Currently we were walking in the cemetery. Harper had a fear of places like this so she was basically glued to my side as Madison leads the way. She was dress in a slick off the shoulder, knee length black dress. The cold did not seem to bother her. Her honey blonde hair was tied up in a high ponytail with a black hair tie. She's been wearing the colour black since Alec's passing to show that she was mouring the lost of her husband and I believe it was also a part of her Hungarian culture. It was cold and eerie s

Stefano SillicianiRide For You Everything was going according to the plan. I glance at Niyler who sat on the sand admiring the beauty before us. I must admit that I am nervous and I have never felt this way before.Niyler and I have not been dating for long, but if I have learned anything from Madison's and Alec's relationship is that time is short and it waits on no man or woman. It was better if I did this while time was still on our side.I reach over and pull Niyler down so that her head rested on my lap. I admired the beautiful smile she wore that made her grey eyes seem brighter and her entire face glow."What's on your mind?" She whispers."You, our future together."Niyler hums as if she was thinking about it. "What does our future look like to you? Will you be moving back to Italy after graduation?"I run my fingers through her hair and watch her. "About that, Bella. I brought a house close by, a week ago. Mother and I will be moving there soon."Niyler sits up, a smile gra

Niyler RostovRide For You *Two Months Later* I stare at my reflection in the mirror. My brunette hair was in a low bun, my makeup was simple and my body was dressed in a beautiful white knee-length dress with a sweetheart neckline. I kept my jewelry simple, diamond stud earrings that Dad had gifted me with the matching necklace and watch. "Are you ready?" Madison says poking her head into my room, before fully making an entrance. She wore a long black sleeveless dress, her honey-blonde hair cascading beautifully down her back. "I am," I say grabbing my silver clutch from the bed. "You look lovely cousin." Even though she is four months pregnant she was hardly showing. She didn't even have morning sickness, it was like she was not expecting.Harper and I are the only family members who knew that she is pregnant. She would be announcing it at dinner tonight, her mom, dad, and her stepmom who we all dislike will also be at dinn

Madison Rostov-CunninghamRide For You Harper is a trouble marker for sure. She had no intention of doing her final year of high school in Cuba. It has always been her dream to attend college in Cuba. Niyler and I support her decision, but seeing it from a parent's point of view I would understand why Micah didn't want her to go so far to study. Everyone had something to say about whether or not Harper should leave for another country for College. I decided to take some of the heat from her."I'm four months pregnant," I announce. It was not loud enough, but still, everyone fall silent.I stare at my dessert. I wanted to have chocolate cake, but now that I got it my stomach feels sick just looking at it. I could feel all eyes on me, but I ignored them.Jake's wife giggles, sounding like she had something stuck in her throat. "See honey cake, I told you your daughter looked like she had gained at least fifteen pounds. Now look at that, teenage pregnancy, and the

Madison RostovRide For You I stared at the image displayed on the screen from the sonogram. I could hear the heart beating and see the movements of the baby. Doctor Kingston points to the different parts of the baby's body that was visible. It is strange how much better my mindset got in the past couple of months. If someone had asked me to describe the baby on the screen I would have said it resumes a strange Alien. Now I could not help, but find it beautiful."Are you ready to hear the gender of your baby, Mrs. Cunningham or do you want it to be a surprise?" Doctor Kingston asks, her round flawless face holding a bright glow from the smile she wore. She was a young doctor who seems to love her job and by looking at the screen myself I can understand why. Babies are tiny beautiful gifts from Heaven.I did not want it to be a surprise. I want to be able to decorate the room accordingly and it will also be easier if I know the gender when I go shopping for baby clothes. "Yes, I am re

Harper RostovRide For You "I really hope this is the one. I am so exhausted and I have a test to study for." Ophelia says as we walk up the driveway of a four-bedroom house with our realtor Xandra leading the way. We have been viewing apartments and houses from eight-thirty this morning and it is now three forty-four pm. Who would have thought that it would take so much time and energy to find a decent place to live? It made it even more difficult because we all had different tastes and preferences."I agree. My feet are killing me." Olivia says."I can guarantee you, ladies, this one is my favourite and I am sure you will like it too," Xandra says. She removes the key from her purse and opens the door. We followed her in and looked around. So far, so good. I thought as I looked around the big empty space."Didn't she say the same thing for the last two?" Tamia whispers to me as we continue to follow behind her."She said that for the last three." I correct her and she rolls her eye

Harper RostovRide For You As soon as the door closes behind us Parker turns to face me. His hands were tucked into the pockets of a jean jacket he wore. "Can I get a hug?"I roll my eyes. "Do you think you deserve a hug? You ignored me for days Parker, then you just show up here pretending as if everything is okay."Parker cast his gaze downwards and scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. "I'm sorry Harp, I was in a tough situation." His eyes met mine. "Shouldn't I get a hug for facing my fears and going on a plane just so I can be with you?" He did deserve a hug. I was just being stubborn. He could have still replied to my messages to let me know that he was not alright. "You are such a brave boy, come here," I say playful with open arms.Parker smiles sweetly and pulls me into his arms. I melt away in the comfort his body provides and the amazing scent that comes from his body. It was just so intoxicating. "I missed you, Harper." He whispers."I miss

Harper RostovRide For You*Present Time* The girls and I were in a serious conversation regarding a book Ophelia's mom left her. She had confided in us after we promised to always remain friends. I would never have thought that Manny was so cruel and that Ophelia had gone through half of what she did. No wonder they say that you should never judge a book by its cover."I think you should forgive your mom. She was in a tough situation." Olivia shares her opinion.Tamia shakes her head while throwing peanuts in her mouth. "It is not my decision to make, but I wouldn't. My daughter would have been more important than money. The best thing she could have done was take you with her and run for the hills.""Right!" Ophelia says pointing at Tamia as if that was the best thing she heard all night. "That is what I said to Kain. What do you think, Harp?"I slumped further down on the couch and thought about the situation. Her dad wanted to harm her mom, so she left. Leaving

Tamia LarsonBefore University I don't give a damn 'bout my reputationYou're living in the past, it's a new generationA girl can do what she wants to doAnd that's what I'm gonna do The song by Joan Jett was loud in my ears as I hopped around a few times. I didn't care that the music was loud, I would worry about being hard of hearing in the future. I punched the big brown colour bag a few times. This is what I do to relax and blow off steam. Gunner and I used to practice together, but he left a month ago to serve his country. I punch the bag harder a few times. Having a boyfriend who was in the army was tough. Not one day goes by that I don't worry about him. Boxing and beating on a punching bag helped me a lot, he taught me how to box. He said it would help to release the pent-up anger I had after my father left me, my mom, and my brother, for another family and he was right. "Mia! Tamia!" The distant voice got louder making me look in the direc

Olivia McDonald Going to University in another country was going to cost an arm and a leg. Luckily I have been saving for years, I did side hustles while going to high school so that I could pay for University. It was not legal to sell things on the school compound, but I did that just to get by. I sold snacks and sweets to my classmates so that they could have something to chew on during classes, even though we weren't allowed to eat in class. When the teacher started to suspect me, I had to find another way to make money so I started to sell pens and pencils. Then I upgraded to babysitting and washing cars. When I was in the tenth grade I started my small business called Liv's Collection, where I sell crochet swimwear that I made and also regular two-piece and one-piece sets that I brought from overseas vendors. That was a good business idea and I hope to expand in the years to come.Sometimes business was slow, but other times I received huge orders which was

Ophelia Keaten All of what took place led to this moment. My mother did not abandon me because she hated me, but she did it to protect me and secure what was rightfully hers. Manny Keaten threatened me with a marriage proposal and to take away all my possessions when the truth was that none of what he had belonged to him. My mother was the rightful owner of the oil company my father runs. She is the brain and the one who started it from scratch. Manny had been scheming against my mother to send her to a mental institution under pretenses, he wanted to steal all that she had and blackmailed her for crimes that he committed. When she found out she set her plans into place. As soon as I turn eighteen everything will go to me as long as I stay living with Manny. I'm not sure how to feel about my mother leaving me with a man who wanted to harm her, just so I can own billions the day I turn eighteen.The reason why Manny wanted me gone was that he could delay th

Ophelia KeatenBefore University I was unable to focus on the match. I kept replaying what Quin said to me and how she hugged me tightly as if she was not going to see me again. I was worried about her. She knew things that I did not and that scared me."Hello gorgeous, why do you look so worried?" I glance up at the tall and handsome guy in front of me. He held his jersey in one hand with sweat dribbling from his golden abs. My eyes met Kain's hazel ones before they moved down to his full pink lips that wore a smile. I snapped myself out of it and looked around me, People were leaving and the scoreboard had the scores 159 to 103. Miami Heat won and I missed out half of the game."Congratulations player. I would hug you, but you are all sweaty." I smile at him. He reached a hand forward and I took it, allowing him to pull me up."Thanks, baby, you know we bring the heat wherever we go." He grins showing his perfect white teeth.I roll my eyes and slap his torso. He t

Ophelia KeatenBefore University "Ophelia?" Someone says shaking me from my slumber. "Helia," The voice says again. I recognize that it was Quin. She is the twenty-four-year-old daughter of Leoni. The woman who took care of me. When my mother left she took over and treated me like I was her daughter. Quin and I grew up together. Even though we were not the closest she treated me like a little sister. Quin was strange, one moment we got along and the next she was distant as if she was hiding something and was scared I would find out. For my safety, I try not to get very close to her or Leonie. Sure they were there when I was a child, but as soon as I reached my teens I spent most of my time alone. The closer we were the harder it would be when they decided to leave me. "Leave me alone, Quin," I mumble and pull the blanket over my head. "Sweetheart it is noon and you haven't left your bed from morning. Your dad wants to talk to you, unfortunately, that

Ophelia KeatenBefore University If I had to sit through another photoshoot then I would go blind from the damn lights flashing from the camera and into my face. This was the worst part of being Manny Keaten's daughter. I only see him for a few hours every month and during those hours I was completely devastated. It was draining and nerve-wracking being around him. We might share the same last name and the same blood, but he felt like a stranger.We put on a great picture for the world to see. To them, my annoying stepmother, Camila, Manny, and I were the perfect family. My reality sucks, my life was far from perfect and there was only one person who made me happy. That is Ryan Johnson, my boyfriend. I met him two years ago at the grand opening of Vikings, a new club in Miami. We made things official six months ago and after leaving the shoot I will visit him at his penthouse. I had an early birthday surprise for him that just can not wait."Ms. Keaten th
