Dark Nights With The Mafia/Yolanda Kinsman

I run down the stairs as fast as I can to get to the subway, where there are a lot of people.New York is a beautiful city, but holy crap, it is so crowded! Whenever."Excuse me!" I yell as I squeeze between people one after the other. I hurry around the corner to the next set of stairs when I get to the end.I just don't have the strength to do all of this nonsense.When I feel a side stitch coming on, I hold my breath and hold on tight to my purse as I walk down the last flight. I skip the last step and press my hand against my hip as I run up to the platform.When I hear a train leave, my eyes get big, and when I see it leave, my eyes get even bigger. Shit.As I stand on the platform and watch my train go down the tracks, I sigh deeply and try to catch my breath.When I feel someone looking at me, I turn around and run my hand through my long blonde hair.Having to always depend on public transportation can be a real pain.When I had the chance, I should have taken driving lessons,

I'm always by myself.At least, that's what it looks like to me.Most of the time, people say that sadness is empty. Nothing but a total and complete absence of everything. They're wrong, though. Grief fills up. It's heavy as hell. It's not a hole you have to fill; it's a load you have to carry.Something you need to bring with you everywhere. A burden that sometimes makes it feel like you can't even breathe.It's hard to get enough air.A constant reminder of what you won't have anymore in the future. How you used to imagine your life would be.People who think things will get better. whoever said "time heals" was right. Everyone is lying. That's not true at all. All that happens is that you have to wait longer between times when you miss them. When you miss them again, it hurts to think about them.It hurts worse than anything. Even so, I haven't been through one.As soon as the pain of missing them goes away, guilt starts to set in. When you realize you haven't missed someone in a

My head hurts a lot. My eyes stinging. It hurts my ears.A strange smell fills my nose and gives me a strange feeling in the pit of my stomach. A mix of gasoline and dirt that made me feel sick to my stomach.When I hear a deep laugh that sounds like it came from behind me, I am immediately on high alert and my eyes are wide open. Not until then do I realize I'm no longer at home.I don't really know where I am, to be honest. In front of me is a dark grey wall, and to my right is a small window that lets in a little bit of light.When I look up, I have to squint to see the bright light hanging above my head. What the heck am I doing?When I look down to see my hands, I see that they are tied behind my back. My body is filled with fear and adrenaline, and I pull hard on whatever is holding my hands together, but they won't move."It's high time that you joined us." I turn my head from left to right to see who is talking to me."What did you do to me?" I keep moving around in the chair,

I don't know how long I've been here, but it feels like I've been here for hours and hours. Who knows, maybe even days.I don't remember how I got here or what happened after those men broke into my apartment. I only remember them putting me in a corner in my living room, and then everything went dark.After I fell asleep, I woke up here. Even though I don't know where this place is. I'm in a room with a small window and a hanging light that looks like it's been there through every single world war. The strange men around me sound like they have Italian accents.The sound of the door opening again pulls me out of my thoughts, and I look over to see the same man walk in again. He has two small cups in each hand and is nodding to the man standing against the wall next to me.He walks over and picks up a chair, unfolds it so the man can sit on it, and puts it right in front of me.I keep looking at him as he sits down, putting one of the cups on the floor by his foot and holding the othe

"This damned cat! Fuck you!" As the door is kicked in, a loud voice yells.Mattia walks in with Ares in his hands and hissing as Ares tries to get away. Mattia throws him down so hard that he lands on his paws. Ares sees me and runs over to me."Fucking hell, that cat is a devil." Mattia snaps as his hands brush against his black pants, which have small cuts on them.Nice job, Ares.Gianni, the person Dontae asked to keep an eye on me, laughs under his breath but tries to hide it by clearing his throat. I already heard it, so it's too late.Mattia must have heard, too, because he gives him a dirty look and walks over to me while avoiding the cat. "Pick up that thing and come with me, your boss wants you to go to your room."As Ares purrs against my leg, I look down at him. Now I know that people didn't just call him "that thing."Mattia tells me to pick him up, so I stand up and follow him out of the room. I can tell Gianni is following me, but I'm not going to look over my shoulder t
