Judy stared at the home address on the piece of paper in her hand. She couldn’t resist the urge to knock with her itchy hands, but at the same time, her nerves were wrecked. Could he really help her?. With one deep breath, she knocked, her feet tapping nervously as the door remained closed longer than she was comfortable with.The door finally opened but to her surprise and little child answered instead, if judy wasn’t so emotionally stressed she would have found the little girl incredibly cute, but she wore a frown that struggled to turn into a smile on her face “Can I help you?” The little girl asked softly “Hi, is there a grown up I can speak to?Judy observed with amusement as the little girl crossed her arms, appearing offended.“And who do you think you’re talking to, lady?, a child?Judy was surprised by the girl’s strong and sassy comeback.Judy chuckled nervously, scratching the back of her head. She opened her mouth to respond, but someone beat her to it.“What did I say abo
Santo knew better than to walk into his father’s house unarmed and without assistance, and that’s why he had a total of twelve of his finest men with him along with Rico, the last time he was alone, it left them both with a scar. They all walked through the front door. None of his father’s men dared to stop. Him, they knew him well enough “Santo...” the familiar cheerful voice made santo halt from his walk to his father’s office, santo turned to the direction of the voice, a frown fell on his face “Elena?” Rico beat Santo to it. “What are you doing here?” “Keeping your father in place” the elderly woman spoke dusting off invisible lint from Rico’s suit “you boys are always so formal” she chuckled “now, not here for trouble are we?” she asked her eyes directed to santo “As long as Enzo doesn’t find any” Santo replied before walking past her, Rico followed behind, they both got to Enzo’s office the door shut in front of them, santo took a deep breath, his hands clenching and unclenc
“What’s going on?” Santo asked, frozen in place as he stared at sunny, at the beautiful dress she wore, at her perfect face nicely coated with makeup and her hair styled back perfectly. She looked beautiful “I was all Rosa’s idea,” sunny said. Santo looked behind him only to see Rosa closing the door and sly smile on her face “Enjoy..” Rosa whispered before shutting the door Sunny bit her lips and watched as santo shook his head before looking back at her. Her fingers danced around with each other. “You scared the hell out of me,” Santo said, taking slow steps towards her. Sunny stepped back on instinct, halting santo from moving closer than well. He tilted his head at her, his eyes narrowed as well. “Are you scared of me?” He asked, she Shaked her head but the look on her face said otherwise. “sunny..?” He called “Yes.. of course I’m scared of you, you haven’t given me a reason not to be,” she said, her eyes glancing to her feet “Sunn...” he tried to speak, but she cut him off
Santo froze, his jaw hanging low as he stared at sunny. The shock of her own actions was evident in her eyes, but she shook it away and smiled softly instead, their faces seconds apart.“I’m sorry you had to face that all by yourself” sunny whispered his fingers softly stroking his face “but you’re not alone anymore” she said watching as Santos eyes flickered from her eyes to her lips, tempted to kiss her again “you’ve got Rosa, Rico..” she paused for a while, almost like she was debated if what she was about to say was the right thing “and you’ve got me” she decided it was.The air was thick with anticipation as they gazed into each other’s eyes, feeling the electricity crackling between them. Without a word, santo reached out and gently cupped sunny’s face in his hands, his touch sending shivers down her spine.With a soft, almost imperceptible sigh, Sunny leaned into santo, their lips meeting in a tender, tentative kiss. But as the moments passed, their desire ignited like a wildfi
Sunny was starting to regret suggesting she wanted to come, her fingers haven’t stopped toying with each other since they came off the chopper, her nerves were all over the place and the number of men santo Brought along weren’t helping either, the minute the car stopped in front of a heavily guarded house, sunny felt the need to get back into the chopper and fly back to the island, but instead she took a deep breath and got off the car putting on a brave faceSanto and Rico were the first ones in front while Rosa walked behind with her “You look scared as hell,” Rosa said, Sunny looked at her “Is It that obvious?” She asked “Yeah, I can practically smell if off you,” Rosa said chuckling “It’s not funny,” sunny said, nudging her in the side as they both walked through the front door Sunny tried not to show her surprise and fear as she stared at the beautiful house that was filled with so many men carrying ammunitions. She shifted closer to Rosa.Santo and Rico were speaking to so
"Did you really have to bring her?" Judy asked, taking a glance at Henry's daughter, who was currently engaging an old woman in conversations she had no idea about "It was either that or leave her with my neighbours, and I'm still paying the dues for the last time she stayed there" Henry said glancing at his daughter as well before turning back to Judy "so how do we get the camera footage?" He asked, watching as Judy stared into space after if she was searching for a solution "Oh.. I know.. just follow me" she said walking up to the receptionist "hey Lois" Judy said smiling brightly at the bored lady "Hey juds, what favour do you want now?" Lois asked, tilting her head at her before taking a look at Henry. She immediately strengthened herself and put on a broad smiled. Judy narrowed her eyes, glancing from her to Henry, who simply wasn't paying attention "I'm going to pay you back this time with something you seem to want," Judy said softly, nudging her head towards HenryLois see
"Three nights ago, two shipments were stolen from me.. twenty of my men dead, a very pissed father on my neck.. I haven't had the best week. " Santo leaned back into his seat and looked at the man opposite him, Russo...Russo was supposed to be his partner, he was supposed to be loyal, but you know the saying; 'when you give a kid a ladder he aims to build a castle' that's exactly what Russo was trying to do and Santo saw right through his fake smile and false obedience."No trace were found capo," Russo replied. His voice held no fear to it, no remorse, nothing, he was pretty confident that nothing was found.. ("boss")Santo's fist clenched to think he trusted this bastard. It angered him He stretched his hands to his side where his brother Rico stood... Rico stepped forward and handed him a file, Santo placed the file on the table in front of him and slid it towards RussoRusso eyes shot to the file and back at Santo as if he was asking for permission to look at the content of the
"My mommy looks just like you,” the little girl said just as Sunny helped her lie down. A subtle smile appeared on Sunny’s lips. “She’s very beautiful, just like you.”"I'll come after two hours to give you your meds... Till then rest and please oh please don't ring the bell again.. there's no monster under your bed, certainly not here in the hospital," sunny said and the little girl nodded.sunny chuckled before lightly tapping her head.. "Goodnight," sunny whispered before walking out of the hospital room..A small yawn left her lips, and she felt her eyes close for a secondIt was currently 1am in the morning.. Sunny's still thinking why in the world she agreed to do a night shift.."Try not to fall" Judy, her co- worker, said chuckling in the process"No promises," sunny replied, leaning against the wall... She looked at her friend and a sad smile fell on her lips..Judy was all dressed up, ready to go home, while she was gonna be here all throughout. She wouldn't be able to leav
