MASSIMO'S POVI stood rigid when I heard that, it was like I was glued to the floor, I listened intently to Gladys and looked around, content the men who came to me were far away, I stumbled back, going into the shadows. I didn't look back until I got to the men's toilet then I took a deep breathe and continued the phone call. Surprise was evident in my eyes. My mind went to what Zino told me, he wasn't the type that joked with words. Everything he told me, he meant it as hell. It wasn't every day that someone like him made a sudden appearance and say something so sinister, yet, calmly said. My heart was palpitating, my fear palpable in the air. But I knew I had to be strong and help navigate this dangerous situation.But I couldn't help but replay his harsh words in my head, his words echoed in my mind, urging caution and submission. I could sense the panic rising in me as the gravity of the situation sank in. It dawned on him that Zino wouldn't simply talk, but would go to any leng

MASSIMOWe sat over breakfast. By me, I was referring to the three of us; I, father and mother. I struggled hard to eat some food, I didn't want him noticing that I wasn't myself, but he kept on making matters worse.I sat at the head of the table, directly opposite him while Mum sat at his right side. He claimed I had earned a spot at the head of the table. Staring down at my breakfast of eggs, sausages, bread, pancakes and maple syrup, tea and some french toast, I kept on trying to drown father's voice. "You made me proud yesterday Massimo, it's good you finally decided to be useful." On a normal day, those words would be as precious as dear life, I had been longing to hear him say that since forever and now that he did, I didn't really care about it. "I bagged two deals at the coronation yesterday, the people were impressed by my choice which is you, I really -" he continued, talking with his mouth full of all kinds of food. Father hardly talked at the table, but today it was li

I stopped dead in my tracks. How did he know? How did he find out? Gladys and I were the only ones expected to know. Although I wasn't so happy he was proud of me, I didn't need his disappointment either, at least not at this point.I clenched my fists and played with my fingers, struggling with myself for words to defend myself with. Something to let him know that I knew exactly what I was doing even though I didn't. "You don't have an answer?" Father asked, his voice clearly laced with anger.I searched for answers in my head. "It's not true, I heard the rumours but it's just a speculation because his body wasn't found," I lied, hoping I sounded as serious as I should. "Right, it's just a speculation. I'm sure you killed him." His tone didn't sound like he was convinced, it sounded more like sarcasm but I couldn't care less as long as I was off the hook. "Do you remember the Dante's family she talked about?" He asked. It was at this point I turned around to face him. "What?" I a

MASSIMO "Someone get me a fucking stretcher," I got down from the car and started to scream for help as soon as we reached the hospital. Mom was still inside with blood all over the seat of the car. "Help please," I screamed with my hands on my head, not caring about the blood. "I'll take her in," the driver offered as I tried to lift her but couldn't as my hands were shaking vigorously. "She can't die, she can't die," I kept on screaming as I followed him into the hospital where we were net with nurses and a gurney. A nurse’s rubber gloved hand removed my hand from the iron stand as we approached the inner rooms that no one except trained personnel was allowed to enter. I imagined the tall nurse giving me a smile over the facemask she had on her face as she said “We’ll take it from here."I reluctantly removed my grip from the stretcher and cast one last glance at mother “Please take care of her.”The nurse said nothing more and herself and the rest of her team pushed through th

TIFFANY'S POVI woke up groggily, feeling like I fought demons in my sleep, my body was damn heavy and my head pounding with dull ache I was seeing stars.I could hear the soft murmurings of voices around me, they seemed distant, as if coming from a faraway place. It irked me to know I wasn't alone, I wanted to drown in my pain and sleep it away. I tried to open my eyes, but the bright light from the room made me squint and I quickly shut them again.Someone was touching me, cleaning me up and caressing me carefully like a mother changing her baby's diaper. I wanted to pull away but I was so weak.'Damnnnn'I heard someone pacing, taking heavy steps at a time, the steps made me want to scream but my voice was gone. I heard the person's worry and restlessness in the room. I discovered it was Gladys.I could hear the shuffling of her feet as she paced back and forth. She was talking to someone, her voice filled with frustration and anger. I strained my ears to listen, but the words were

TIFFANYI kept pacing around the room as I chewed the food in my mouth, I was in the same place with Gladys but she wasn't focused. I looked at her and I could that there was something bothering her. I chewed and then swallowed hard. Gladys kept looking over the window and somehow, I understood her fear.She was so certain that nothing could happen and no one would find out but someone checked her house. I don't know how but the person seemed to know exactly what he was checking for. Although I didn't want to eat more, I felt it would be better than the fruits and fiver I've actually been having.As I stayed there, I tried collecting everything that happened the previous day and somehow, the guy looked familiar. I raised my brow as I tried to think and remember. I had no idea where exactly I knew him from or where I had seen him before yesterday.Just as I was trying to recall, Gladys kept walking about and it made me unable to focus on what I was doing.She was not just walking

TIFFANYGladys walked back and stood beside my phone. She was charging it herself and then turned back to look at me.I gave a nod asking her to go ahead and do it. All I needed to do was make her see reasons why she should give me my phone. She looked at me and then back at the phone before turning in my direction again. “I cant believe I’m doing this,” she muttered and I swallowed hard.“I know you are a nice person,” I said softly. “I can say that because I know you.” I paused. “You’re right that I’m spoiled and I have no idea what pain is but I can see—I can see how difficult things can be and you deserve the best, Gladys.”“You deserve every single good thing you can think of because you’re human. There’s good in you and I can see it.” I gave a convincing nod as I spoke. “You’re such a sweet person, Gladys and I’ve always loved you. Right from when we became friends, I’ve seen and loved you as a sister.”Although that was a lie that I only intended to use to make her feel good b

TiffanyMy eyes were slightly opened and as I yawned, I became more aware of the surrounding. I was half awake and could hear the footsteps approaching the room.My tummy grumbled at that point and all I could think of was food. I didn’t have any meal last night and that was somehow making me to feel dizzy. “Oh lord I’m so hungry,” I muttered as my tummy grumbled the more. The door to the room flared open and the broad-chested man walked to my bed and grabbed my hands. He dragged me out of the bed like I was weightless and that just made me yell at him.“Get away from me!” I yelled. “What do you think you’re doing?” I frowned as I turned to look at him.“Getting you out of here,” he responded. “We need to leave now.”“stop! Let go of my hands now or I’ll scream.” I wriggled away but he yanked my arms. He ignored me and kept dragging me till we got to the door and he was about to drag me through the door. “You fucking asshole!” I screamed. “Let go of my hands now or I’ll scream that

My whole body felt different from looking at bodies and blood. I had no idea which felt worse; watching the blood gush out or actually being in this situation to start with. “Oh my God,” I growled as I kept puking over and over. I tried to shut my eyes and brush it off but I couldn’t cause I was in the midst of dead men. I looked over their bodies and tried my best to remain calm. I felt utterly irritated but at the same time, I felt like the price. The noise coming from the sides didn’t stop and soon I figured people were fighting. I don’t know the whole thing resulted into me standing in the middle. I was between Gladys and Luciano and I swallowed hard and looked around me. “Don’t you even think of it,” Gladys’ voice muttered from behind me and I looked in her direction. Luciano laughed out loud and I also wondered what the hell was going on.“Come over here,” Tiffany beckoned. “You know you don’t have a choice>”I looked at her and then at Luciano. I was trying to get a perfec

I can't believe what I was looking at!“No fucking way,” I blurted and laughed when I realized he was being serious about getting into a private jet. I looked around and couldn’t even keep my excitement hidden.I used my hand to cover my mouth and then shook my head. “I’m serious,” Luciano said and smiled at me. “This way.”“Wait what?” I asked again. “I don’t even know what it feels like to be in a jet. I’ve never been in one.” I paused to make sure this was real and it truly was. Everything seemed like it was real and I was real too.It felt too good to be true and I couldn’t stop smiling hard. My heartbeat had increased so badly and it kept pounding in my chest. I tried to remain calm but the nervousness and excitement was making it impossible.“You know?” I said and looked at Luciano. “I jet should probably be called TEJ cause it makes a person feel upside down.”He looked at me, not impressed by my lame joke but that didn’t stop me from laughing out loud and chucking beside me.
