Mafia's Wrong girl Chapter 20
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

ISABELLA “What is this?” “Wh—what do you mean, ma?” “What do you mean by what do I mean?” She walked close to the carton she dropped on the table a while ago so that she could pick up another piece of cake. “Do you want to taste what you've brought to my home?” She put some in her mouth and spat it on the floor. Shock came on on my countenance. What did I just see? Was she—was she trying to tell me I did not do a good job? Tears welled up in my eyes, but I tried so hard so that they did not fall off. “I don't know what you're talking about, Nonna. Is something wrong with the cakes?” She burst into laughter. “I can't believe I am eating this nonsense.” She walked to the table and dropped the remnant of the cake she bit a while ago and turned to the woman who served me a glass of water. “Take this out of my sight.” She ordered and made a gesture with her hand so that the woman stopped. “Don't bother about it. Even the dogs cannot have this.” “What do I do with it, ma'am?” The

SERAPHINA The shop had done better than ever. I was proud of myself. More than proud that it gave me the guts to talk back to my once-best friend in the manner I did when her call came in the last time. Not only did I speak to her in that manner, but once again gave myself a name. The reputation I know I deserved. And as soon as the month started to end, her payment was ready. More than ready but I made up my mind to send it to her in my own time—not hers. Today was a Saturday. The day I planned to send her money. My mood asked me to and I was willing to do just that—so the very moment I stepped foot at the shop, I dumped my handbag as soon as my phone was retrieved from a purse inside of it. “Good morning, Isabella.” No one spoke from the other end.Looking at the screen of my phone, I realized it could be the network and ended the call, promising myself to reach out to her as soon as I could before the day ended. From the look of things, there was more than a lot to do at t

ISABELLA Did she just ask me what? Where were her manners? Did she forget I was still older than her even though things didn't work out well between us and it could have been my fault in a way? “What is it, Isabella?” Her tender voice, from the other end, brought me back to reality. “I don't have all day. You of all people should know how tiring and time-occupying the business is, or did you forget?” A smile came on my countenance. It was obvious Seraphina's business was now going well. Or maybe not. It was either it went well or she had the privilege of taking money from Carlos who wouldn't mind. The position I had seen them in several times wasn't a good one and the thought of it alone made me annoyed. “Good day, Seraphina.” “Good day to you, too, Isabella.” “Thank you—” I finally made up my mind to take a seat on the couch—opening my mouth to speak again. “I saw some money in my bank account. A message came in from the bank and when I checked, it was from your account. Did

ISABELLA The weekend came in a rush. It was the day when I would leave the house for the mansion where Carlos lived. As soon as I had taken a bath, I caught up with my room and was ready before that hour ended, grabbing my purse and then heading out of the house after wearing perfume and a watch on my wrist. Was Carlos as excited as I was to see him just as I was to see him? Several times, I asked myself this question as I caught up with the gate of the compound where I said a few words to the man who worked for me. “Have a nice day, ma'am.” Waving back at him, I led my way through the Estate and was catching up with a cab in no time, explaining my directions to him before asking for the fee. “It's almost an hour's journey. I believe you should pay half a hundred. That's what's fair.” Indeed, it was fair. Even if it wasn't, I would take the ride either way because at the end of the day, more than half a hundred dollars would be in my account and I would feel good again. Carl

CARLOSI burst into laughter at that moment. What did they think they were talking about? I stopped laughing and then looked at the men who moped at me as though they had seen a ghost. What could I say? Why couldn't they say something too? “What's going on here?” Finally, I popped a question. “Is there something I need to know and why are all of these coming at me?” “Carlos—” Mr. Robinson called. “We don't bring sentiment into this business and you know this. I'm sure you do. One thing you should know is my job and that of the others is to bring the company to life and that's what we're trying to do or can you not see it?” “No, I can't see it,” a chuckle escaped my mouth. “If there's something I can see then it's you being unfair to me by taking something I have spent the last decade building. What exactly is going on here?” “Carlos. This is a family business. It's a different thing if it were your business and you know this.” Frank was all smiles when I looked at him and he n

CARLOS “What? Why?” The same confusion that plastered on my countenance was the same as that of my man, Vito. “I wouldn't know, Vito. That's what he said.” Vito adjusted on the chair. He looked at me and looked around the room before facing me again. “I don't know what to say about this but you cannot run from the meeting. Maybe there's something he has to discuss with you and we'll never know until you get there.” “You're coming with me.” I got up and walked around the dining section. “I don't know how I'm supposed to face Frank if this is one of his games. I'm too weak to fight if one arises and the strength or courage to face him, I don't have. Do you see it?” “I understand, Boss. You mustn't kill yourself.” I turned to face him. So many thoughts ran around in my head and one that bothered me the most was what my cousin wanted. He rarely reached out to me on the phone. In fact, the last time Frank and I talked over the phone was months ago and it had to do with the Mafia g

CARLOSThe month didn't start well, or end well. No one needed to tell me but I knew I lagged in my tasks at the office. There was so much to do and whenever I walked into the office, I ended up doing only a few.What was wrong with me? I knew, but still needed to ask. A woman had never affected me in this manner and I didn't have the slightest idea what to do and how to go about what to do if I knew. I hit my hand on the table, shouting. Another month had started and this wasn't the right way to start the month—even the day. Especially when there was more than enough to attend to. What would I say to partners who I penned all these while? A frustrating sigh ran out of my mouth and I stopped trying while realizing how a woman would become my end. Standing up on my feet, I caught up with the door and walked out, catching up with the stairs and then the diner where Nonna and Jenny stayed to eat. Whenever I came into the diner and Jenny was there, she got up and left. But she didn

ISABELLA It was a good thing—watching from afar. Even though I wasn't sure what the news was, I knew there was no way the two would be together at the end of the day. Especially when I knew my once best friend hated lies more than her enemies. Or was she going to let this one be? No, she had better not. I snapped out of my thoughts when my phone rang. My gaze went to the phone and I nodded, smiling at the callers whose name appeared on the screen of my phone. Without any hesitation, I picked up the call. “Hello, Frank Gotti—” The man from the other end chuckled. “Good morning, Miss Isabella. You've done a great job and you don't know.” His words made the smile on my face widen and I nodded, happy that his suggestion worked after all. That was what we needed. “I'm happy to hear that, Frank. But how did you know? Did your cousin reach out to you so that you're told?” He laughed again, and now it annoyed me. Could this man go straight to the point? Could he answer my questions

SERAPHINA Life was difficult, more like different without him. I loved him enough and considered him my husband even though I didn't know his thoughts towards me. Arriving at the shop today, I had many thoughts running around in my head and one was how he was faring. Wasn't it better to pick up my phone and reach out to him, or maybe pick up his call when next he called? No. I wasn't going to do that. Not now or ever. The man had offended me and must live with it. How could he lie to me? What did he take me for? Obviously, a fool and only a fool was what I was to not try to check or confirm. But how would I know it was a lie? Sitting at my desk, I heaved a sigh and dropped my bag. Today was going to be another long day. I could not wait for it to come to an end so that I could be gone from the sight of neighbors who did nothing but ask if all was well with me since last week after the breakup. “Good morning, Miss Seraphina.” “Good morning—” I looked up. “Welcome to the s
Mafia's Wrong girl Chapter 42
CARLOSShock was on my countenance. What just happened? Before I could say a word, Seraphina turned and walked away from the table, her perfume filling my nostrils. So many thoughts ran around in my head as I thought about what to do and even how to do it. My gaze scanned the hall and I caught sight of people whose gazes were fixed on me and then I managed to stand on my feet. What was I doing here without Seraphina? I could not blame her either. One thing that bothered me was how she got to know about the real person that I am. I also wondered about who sold me out. While I led my way from the table, I turned around when I recalled my phone and pack remained on that same table. As soon as it was grabbed, I led my way towards the door of the hall, catching up with the lot and then my car. “Boss—” shock appeared on the countenance of Vito who did not and would not expect me to be back at this time. The man looked around before meeting my gaze with aid from a mirror in the car sp

CARLOSThe most awaited day came into existence. One thing I looked forward to was the evening. The same evening when I and the woman I loved more than another would meet after not seeing each other in a while. A knock on my door cut short my thoughts. “Jenny. What is it?” “Mr. Carlos. Good morning. I brought you ginger tea.” “Come on in then.” The door opened and Jenny walked in. Smiling, she caught up with the table next to the bed and dropped the mug of tea. “Is there something you'll be needing? I can get it for you before I go on leave.” Leave? Did she say leave? Oh. How could I forget? Twice a month, Jenny took leaves. Today was one of those days and I would be left with Nonna who would not hesitate to order me around—totally forgetting I was the head of the house. I shook my head. “Not at all, Jenny. There's nothing you should help me with unless you get back to the house as soon as you can. Seraphina and I have a date and you should be home early so that you can

SERAPHINA Another weekend came and passed. According to my calendar, it was three weeks into my relationship with Carlos and there was nothing I did not love about the man. He was everything to me, strangely as it sounded. I wanted him for a husband even though we were yet to get to that point and a part of me did not mind waiting. This Monday morning, I packed my hair in a bun as I moped at my new look in the mirror, all ready for the day. Even the week. Carlos and I had a date by the weekend. There was no way I would miss a moment with him for something else. Just at the right time, my phone beeped and I turned around to reach for it with a smile that came on my countenance as soon as the caller was sighted. “Hello, baby.” The thick voice of a man I loved sounded from the other end, making me wish he was right in front of me, and this way, we could share a kiss. “Are you there?” “Good morning, Carlos—” I said and realized this wasn't in any way the right way to say hello to

SERAPHINA “Wh—what are you doing?” I looked around to be certain it wasn't a prank. “Are you—” I looked around again. “Are you kidding me?” He shook his head. “No, Seraphina. I am not kidding you.” What then was happening? I did not stop looking around just so I could be certain I was not being pranked even though I wished for this to be real—especially because of the feelings I have for Carlos. How didn't I know he was in love with me as well? A smile came on my countenance as I got ready to confess. “There's something you should also know, Carlos. I have loved you from the moment in that party. You didn't have to know because you didn't ask for it and now, you've given me a reason to want this with you. I love you, too.” The happy man looked around. Instead of sitting opposite me so that he could see me clearly, he walked to my side and was seated next to me the very next moment. “Did you mean that?” “I mean everything, Carlos.” There was no need to feign ignorance. Not
