CARLOS

What was I going to do?

I know I asked Seraphina to go home and not worry about the issue we had on the ground, but there was no way I could know what to do.

What was I going to do?

I arrived home a while ago, realizing also that there was a need to employ another man who would drive me.

Since the last one died, or rather—was killed, Vito had been the only one driving me around when that was not his job - he was my PA, not a driver.

“Vito?”

When relaxed on a couch in my living room, I called.

“I might need you to do something for me. But the time is not right - not yet.” I announced while the young man took a seat on the couch on the other end.

“Sure, Boss. You know I can do anything at all.”

That was a good thing to hear. “What would you love me to do for you, Boss? I have waited all these while for a task.”

Nodding, I sat up on the couch.

“I have no idea how this would go yet—” I sounded.

“I'll let you know when the time is right but right now, we need a man to dr

    CARLOS This—was—beautiful. “Vito.” “Boss,” he called back. “Do you like what you see?” I knew I was going to love what I was seeing, but how do I know what exactly I was seeing if I wasn't told? Did Vito think I was a witch to know these things? “I believe so, but what am I seeing?” He took the blindfold off the man's eyes and now I could see his face, but I didn't recognize him. “What, Vito? Who is he? Can you tell me already? I don't think I have all day.” “This is Mr. Johnson—” Vito explained. “He's the man who has been dropping bad reviews on the website. It wasn't a hard thing catching him - especially when he lives around - with his entire family.” “Let me go—” the so-called Mr. Johnson cried. “No, not yet, Mr. Johnson—” I walked closer, meeting Vito's gaze as I gave him a nod. “This is a good job you've done, Vito. I wasn't expecting you to do it soon.” “Of course, Boss. Thank you.” “Can you give us some time?” I now asked. Vito dropped t

    SERAPHINA Worry became my second name. All day and all night, I worried about the fate of my bakery. Even though Carlos, my new partner, promised to do something about it, I wondered all the time what exactly he was going to do to save the day. Did he have connections I didn't know about? These and many thoughts ran around in my head this morning when I opened my eyes in my small apartment. Standing up on my feet, I walked over to the dressing mirror so that I could take a look at myself. I didn't look okay. How could I look okay with the many things that went on with me? It was barely forty-eight hours since I spoke with him at the bakery and since then, he had yet to reach out to me again which left me with none other but the impression that I wasn't wanted in his life anymore. One thing I needed to do was clean up the bakery just as Carlos suggested. Then, I left the side of the mirror and caught up with the closet where my outfit for the day was selected, after which I grab

    CARLOS“Wh—where are we going?” “To the market, Seraphina.” I walked away from the office, and reached the table where my wristwatch was dumped. Picking it up, I walked to the door and turned to look at my new boss. “You should be fast about it.” “I don't think you should do this.” “Why not?” I stopped walking. “I owe you enough already, Mr. Carlos.” When was she going to stop this? A tired sigh ran out of my mouth as I walked back to the desk. “It's a gift, Seraphina. Oh, please. Come on. You cannot refuse my gifts, can you? And don't pity me because I can afford it, so shall we?” She picked up her purse after some time and walked to the door. I did the same with a sigh of relief running out of my mouth and then I reached my car in a short while. “Give me a moment—” I let out, walking to a corner where I knew it was safe to make calls. “Hello, Vito.” “Yes, Boss. Good morning.” “Can you do something for me?” “Of course, Boss. What can I do for you?” “We need to change the

    SERAPHINA The new week did not take long to begin. Unlike the past week, I woke up with a happy look on my countenance, looking forward to starting the day and the new week even—but in the shop. Looking at the wall clock hanging on the wall, I realized how much time I had to get ready for work today. The plan was to be at the shop as early as I could, so I set to work, getting my cleaning tools ready as I planned to clean certain parts of the house—especially when I didn't do that on Saturday, but spent all day at the shop. With Carlos. The man who I had found favor in his sight. Thoughts of him brought a smile to my face. But I shrugged off my thoughts and set to the bathroom for my tools, setting to work the next moment as I mouthed words—humming a song even. While I cleaned, I hummed my favorite song. So many thoughts ran around in my head. Out of these thoughts were the thoughts of how stocked the shop was with the necessary ingredients for the next ten batches of cake

    ISABELLA Anger welled up inside of me like blood flowing through my veins. Walking in, I shut the door of my apartment, holding back myself from shouting, especially at the thought of how unfortunate I could be. Why was it not working? Why couldn't this thing work out for me just as I wanted it? A deep sigh ran out of my mouth as I flung my handbag on the couch, falling on another couch. How could Carlos have a thing to do with her? Not even without taking my permission. What did he think he was doing? Didn't he know I didn't want him with her? Another sigh ran out of my mouth and I got on my feet. There was no need to sit and do nothing. I needed a solution. What the fuck was wrong with the man? Didn't he see I wanted him so much in my life? Even after lying that my birthday was coming up when it wasn't and was long gone since the year started, my plans didn't work. What else was I supposed to do? Not even the accident I feigned would work on him. Sex, even. What happened

    ISABELLA “Yes!” I almost screamed my lungs out this morning. So many thoughts were running around in my head but one of them remained the fact that I had an idea of what to do exactly and how to go about it. I have had the idea for a while now—long before this morning. The idea popped up in my head the very moment I dropped the call with Seraphina the other day when I reached out to her to know the day I would be getting paid. What more could I ask for? Standing from the bed, I caught up with the dressing table—taking a glance at myself with the aid that came from the mirror, after which I walked over to the closet so that I could select an outfit for today. What about Carlos? What happened to reaching out to me and checking on me? Didn't he want me in his life anymore? I knew he didn't from the onset but I still cared to know about why he didn't reach out to me. Was the man pushing me away? How could he do that to a woman who saved him?! But it wasn't me who saved him. Mayb

    CARLOSNo matter how hard I wanted to run away from her, she kept running back to me without caution. “Spend a day together?” As though I didn't hear what she said even though I did, I had to ask just so I could be sure. “I should be busy this weekend, Isabella. I'm not sure.” “It's just the weekend, Carlos. Why are you so uptight?” Her question made me jump on my feet and I paced the space of Seraphina's shop where we were attending to new customers. “I have a life, too, Carlos. Do you think I won't let go of some things for the day just to be with you?” Right. Did she think she was as busy as me? The last time I checked, I was the Mafia Don of a gang in the whole of the city. Did she think it was as easy as staying back at home and being busy with cooking? A sigh ran out of my mouth and I thought about it, nodding. “We should see this weekend, then. I'm sure I can spare a few hours. Maybe three—if that's okay for you. What do you say?” “Perfect, Carlos. Thank you so much.” N

    ISABELLA The master plan had been found, but it hadn't been worked on—not just yet. The last time I met with Carlos, he announced the soon arrival of his Nonna who made it to the house on that same day even though I did not set eyes on her. I had to leave before the woman would make it. But why? Was he so ashamed of me that he didn't want his mother setting eyes on me? I wondered with a grimace on my countenance when I walked into the kitchen this morning. It was early in the morning and I woke up at an unusual hour because of the task I had at hand. Cupcakes had to be made before the morning would come. Then I would make it to the mansion and give the cupcakes to the woman who I planned to impress. A knowing smile now appeared on my countenance. I led my way further into the kitchen and gave a nod, relaxing on the wall before setting to work. How would it turn out? I had never really baked cupcakes even when I stayed in the same shop as Seraphina who did better th

    CARLOSI looked at the entrance of the church. My wife was on her way, dressed in the wedding gown we've always wanted to see her in. A flower in her hand, and of course, Jenny behind. It was strange but the two had developed a bond I could not explain, a bond I approved of long ago. Their friendship was far better than the one Isabella thought she could offer to my woman. “She's so beautiful.” Someone whispered. He was behind me. He was none other than Vito who said these words. “Lucky man that you are.” The people who came for the event were on their feet, singing as the woman I love caught up with me, the smile on her countenance unfading. “You look responsible.” I chuckled. “You leave me with no choice, Seraphina. I must look like a responsible man whenever you're involved. Don't you think so?” A smile was on my face and I took her hand. “How are you feeling?” I looked at my legs. They were strong. I was a strong man and gunshots could not have anything on me. Not once or

    CARLOS“You'll get your ass down here if you know what's good for you, flyboy.” A voice I recognized sounded in my eyes, from the phone. The call ended and I jumped on my feet. It all made sense now. It made sense now why Sera shouted and I didn't hear from her any longer. It was an hour ago and it felt like forever. I had tried so hard to reach out to the people living in the same house as her but I couldn't and I don't know why, even though I knew they were asleep. According to the words of Seraphina. What should I do? I was alone in the whole house. With the men who were watching over me. My legs led me down the stairs again and I looked around with a sigh, many sighs running out of my mouth. What do I do? I reached the living room entrance. It was almost late in the evening but this was a matter of life and death and I could not miss it for anything. I reached for my phone and dialed Vito. “Yes, boss?”“Come over to the house and be as fast as you can. I was talking to Ser

    SERAPHINA It was a blast!Starting off from the wedding gown, down to the suit Carlos showed me at the end of the day. We were on our way home but stopped by a restaurant to get some food. There was no time to cook, maybe there were, as a matter of fact, there were more than enough meals in that fridge at home. And I didn't forget that Jenny cooked something this morning, long before now. “Is this necessary?” That was Jenny asking. She looked at me from where she was seated so that she could ask. “Maybe we should cook something when we're home. You know fully well that there's food in the fridge or have you forgotten so quickly?” How could I forget? Of all things, not what went on in my house. “I want everyone to eat something from a restaurant, is there something wrong with that?” As I opened the door and hopped down, Jonathan did the same. “You two can remain in the car. Myself and Jonathan can handle the purchase.” “Alright.” On their behalf, Nicholas announced. Myself and

    SERAPHINA After several plans and arrangements, the wedding was in two weeks. But before then, myself and Carlos needed to go shop for the things we knew we needed on that big day. With Jenny on my side, and Vito on his, we were ready to go shop for my wedding gown as well as the suit we'd both agreed on. I woke up to the beeping sound of my phone. Sitting up, there was a call from Carlos who promised to call at this time in the morning. Without any hesitation, I picked up the call. “Good morning, boyfriend. How are you today?” “Boyfriend?” He laughed. “You're forgetting I put a ring on your finger. It's something no one would do, I mean, no Boyfriend. I'm fine, baby.” He laughed. It was genuine and I felt happy for him. A man like Carlos who was worse than ever, finding peace, all of a sudden. “How are you?” His next questions cut short my thoughts. I was on my feet, leading my way through to the closet so that I could grab my towel. “I'm fine. I believe I am. Are we getting re

    CARLOSI didn't know what to expect. The look on her face told me she might reject me. Seraphina wasn't smiling. How could she smile? The woman was shocked and needed time. Time to process this. “Are you joking with me?” She cried. I stayed on my knees, unmoving. I cast her a stare and shook my head. “This is never going to be a joke and you know it.” I winked and now she smiled. Seraphina smiled! She looked at the whole room before facing me. “I love you, Carlos Gotti.” Now, that was it. I didn't expect her to say such to me. I no longer felt tense but relieved. “I love you, too, Seraphina. What do you think? Take my ring and become my wife, or take your time to think about this move I have made. I know I haven't been a perfect man for you. I know. Hiding my identity at some point, I recall it, but—” “But nothing, Carlos. I'll be your wife.” Nonna, Jenny, and the others with us in the room cheered. They laughed and clapped while I got on my feet so that the ring could be fi

    SERAPHINA It was the weekend. The day went well and I was ready for what would come in the evening. Tonight. Myself and the men got back from work an hour ago. We were almost ready to leave, not really, but after our bath and a meal, of course. I had barely dropped my phone and bag on the bed when it beeped. There was a call from Carlos. Without any hesitation, I picked it up. “Yes? Good evening, Carlos. How are you doing?” “Good evening, baby.” The sound of that made me feel good. I didn't know why but I felt good. “Good evening,” I said again. I didn't know why and when but I was seated on the couch not so far from my bed in a short while. “How are you?” “Never been better,” Carlos said. I nodded, patient but impatient. There was a lot to do before the call would end. More than a lot. A sigh ran out of my mouth when I looked at the clock hanging on the wall. “I'm doing well, Sera. I wanted to know if I should expect you at the house soon. I know we talked about it this m

    SERAPHINA It was a week after everything that happened. Life went back to normal. The fear of being hurt, according to the words of my enemies who were currently dining in jail, did not disturb me as before. Not any longer. This morning, I woke up on the right side of my bed. The smile on my countenance all morning could not be explained. And with this energy, I was getting ready to leave the house for work. My life did not remain the same. Not any longer. Not when the loneliness and boredom I used to feel didn't exist. Not with Nicholas and Jonathan by my side all the time. “Good morning, guys.” I walked into the living room and looked at both men. “Are you two ready? Or aren't you coming with me to work?” “We'll be ready in an hour.” “Perfect.” “Good morning, Seraphina.” They greeted me and I nodded, heading to the kitchen only to perceive the aroma of good food, a meal I didn't cook. “What's happening here?” I walked out of the kitchen at that same instant. “Do you two

    CARLOSEveryone, including me, adjusted on our seats. This was the time we were waiting for. I wanted this to come and go. It had come, now was time for it to go and I could not wait. “They are guilty, all of them.” I heard Seraphina sigh loudly. She looked at me, and relaxed her back now on the chair. “They shall all serve jail terms. Since nobody was killed in the process, I'm saying the three of them will be sentenced to jail for thirty years. Sam Giancana will be sentenced to jail for forty years.” “Yes!” That was my voice. How could I not be happy with what I heard? A smile came on my countenance. I looked at Frank, then Sam before Isabella. Maybe this would not be happening to them. If not because of anything but because they joined Sam Giancana in trying to hurt me. Only Sam would have been in this shoe, but no, so what happens to the money? The many money they've made off him. “Court!” A young man got up. The meeting had come to an end. What was there to talk about?

  • Mafia's Wrong girl    Chapter 75

    SERAPHINA I sat in a large room where many others were gathered. So many thoughts ran around in my head and I didn't know what to do or even think. But whenever I looked to my left, there was more than a reason to smile. “Relax, okay?” Carlos would say. And I would relax. I would feel better and my nerves would be relaxed the next moment. After a long time of waiting for this day to come, it was the day of their final trial. A day when their fate gets to be decided by the court. I watched a door open. Then three people were pushed out like animals. There was Isabella, Frank, and Sam Giancana. It was as though they planned to look in my direction because until now, I didn't understand why and how they all knew I was seated there. The thoughts I had about being kidnapped or put in trouble came running into my head. I thought about what Isabella could do to me. “Welcome!” Someone's voice snapped me out of my thoughts and I looked up to see the clerk, and then the judge nodding. “
