Once they all returned to Vito’s home after the funeral, Coraline excused herself in order to get some sleep. Due to the havoc the miscarriage was having on her body, she felt more drained than ever. After making sure she was okay in bed, Vito walks down the stairs to find Jayden in the kitchen pulling the tie from around his neck. “I never like wearing these contradictions, feels as though I’m being strangled, which I have multiple times, so I don’t need a demonstration.” Jayden grumbles throwing the tie to lay on the counter, whilst Vito only lets out a sign brewing some coffee. “How’s she doing?” Jayden asks understanding why Vito looked a little low, he was more than worried about Coraline and all that has been happening with her. “She’s okay, she’s putting a brave face on, but I can see how much the miscarriage is affecting her.” Vito explains grabbing a glass cup out of the cupboard whilst Jayden just smiled looking over at him. “She’ll be okay, she’s made of some tough st

The morning was spent with welcoming all of the old regulars back, most would tell me how great it was that the café had reopened and how great I looked through everything. There would be the odd person who would bring Shane up and explain how it would never be the same without him and ask me if I had more information on his death, where I’d simply agree with them that it would never be the same but be quick to tell them I didn’t know much and we’re leaving it up to the police to solve. I couldn’t believe how happy being back and making all of these drinks for the regulars made me, for once I had something else on my mind other than grieve or pain. The many conversations I had with people telling me what they had done whilst the café was closed really put a smile on me face, for me over the past few months, it was as though my life had come to a standstill due to Shane and the café shutting. But now I’m talking with people, it’s showing me that no, life carried on and even though I

Vito sat in his car with Jayden shaking with anger, he knew he shouldn’t have ignored Henson and wonder why he hadn’t tried anything in a few months. Of course, the first person he would go for is Coraline, how could Vito have been so stupid to allow Coraline to go back to work after they were seen together in public numerous times, it’s as though he was asking someone to try and hurt her! “It ain’t your fault man, you’ve had a lot on-” Jayden begins to say knowing how much Vito was beating himself up due to what happened to Coraline. “But it is! She’s my fucking girlfriend, parading her around the way I did and than allowing her off on her own was asking for trouble! For fuck's sake she’s just had a miscarriage, she doesn’t need all this bullshit, especially, getting shot!” Vito shouts mostly towards himself, he had a feeling it was a little too quiet on that front but still, he allowed the silence to continue! “Scott did what he had to, you know if they would have found Corali

The van soon pulled up outside of an old factory right at the edge of the city, away from any peeping eyes who may have some questions and far away enough, so no one was to hear a thing, no matter how loud you were. “Get the girl.” Vito tells Buster who sat in the front with Jayden, he nodded his head and jumped out to pick up the tied and gagged girl shaking in the back, whilst Vito looked down at Coraline who still lay asleep on his lap. “Are you sure this is what you want do to Vito, once you pull that trigger, there’s no turning back?” Jayden asks from the front looking through the mirror at his friend, who only looked down at the girl on his lap stroking his hair. “That man attempted to kill her, sending his men to shoot at her when my back was turned. She was forced to endure such pain and fear, the only way for him to truly pay for that is to make him feel that same pain again and again, until he realises, I’m not one to be fucked with.” Vito says still looking down at Co

After showering until the feeling that I was finally clean came and Vito, inspecting my body to ensure the man hadn’t placed a tracker somewhere on my body, even though I think he didn’t fully believe a tracker would be on my body and used the time to take in each area as though he was undoing what that man did, I enter into the the huge living area of the hotel room. Jayden sat on one of the chairs reading what appeared to be some car magazine. “It’s nice to see you up and about Coraline… how many times have I said that now?” Jayden smiled towards me before looking off into the distance recalling the recent events which had been taking me out. “Too many times, talking about up and about, have you been to see my father today?” I ask getting a little worried that it seemed he’d been sitting here and not with my father like he said he would, if he doesn’t feel up to it, I’ll stay behind I truly do not mind. “I’ve just gotten back, whilst you were showering, I went to see him, gave
