                       Diana

I looked at the job offer card I was holding in my hand. My mouth wide open in surprise and my heart soaring in delight. My dream, my passion, my wish had come true. I had been offered at job at my dream fashion company, Trends. It was the best fashion company in the entire USA.
"Diana you need to close your mouth before something goes in." said Roran, my best friend.
"Roar, I have been offered a job at the best fashion company in the USA." I yelled in delight.
"I know baby but you need to stop calling me Roar. We are not the same five year old kids." he said
I ignored his words and threw my arms around him hugging him tightly.
"I Love You, Roar." I yelled
"I love you too, Diana." he yelled back, griping me in his iron strong grip.
He then lifted me up and swirled me making me scream.
Finally exhausted we both fell on the bed, the job offer card now clutched in his hands.
"We need to tell Dad about this." I said to him
"Yeah but, Diana you know that he wants you to lead his mafia rather than join a fashion and modeling company." said Roran in low voice

"But he said that I could work on my dreams but later I would have to lead the mafia. And Roar I learned fighting, spying, hacking, seducing, thieving and a million other things on his saying. I trained myself as a mafia leader. I lead the gang in a million missions. I tortured million criminals. Why? I was the mafia leader's daughter and to protect myself from inevitable dangers I did all this. I trained myself, I killed people even though it wasn't the most easy thing. But this is my life. I want to live it the way my heart wants. And it isn't like my dad is dropping dead right now so I guess that mafia inheritance isn't a problem." I explained more to myself than him.

"I know Diana." he said
Then we both re-read the card for a millionth time.

Suddenly Roran sat up and said
"Hey Diana let's go to bar and have fun okay?"
"But what about the explaining- to- dad- mission.?" I asked
"Do it tomorrow." Roran murmered as he grabbed my hand and started to drag me.
"Roar let me change at least." I said trying to escape from his hulk like strong grip.
"Do you always change clothes before going to the kitchen?" he asked
"Kitchen?" I asked
"Kitchen." he replied "Can't you smell the heavenly cookies of Emma?"
"Now that you mention it, I CAN." I yelled my voice raising from low to high.

Laughing we both ran towards the kitchen, hands entwined.

Bursting into the kitchen we raced towards the cookies and grabbed them before Emma saw us.
But luck was against us.
"Why do you guys still have to behave like five year old kids. I swear that since you two have become friends my cookies always run short." Emma said standing by the kitchen door, all flustered but love for both of us coating her voice.
We both smiled and wrapped our arms around her hugging her.
At first she tried to act angry but then hugged us back too.

Emma was our cook since I was five year old. Me and Roran became friends and she used to look after both of us. We used to steal her cookies since then and till today.
After Roran and I lost our mothers in a car accident our friendship increased to a level where nothing could break it. Roran was my everything and I was his. We were siblings. We were friends. We were partners. And we even fought together. He is my fathers second in command in the gang.

And will remain even when I become the leader. I hope my dad never dies.

Emma looked at my clothes and wrinkled her nose in disgust.

"Diana go change your clothes and you too Roran. You both smell like dirty pigs." she ordered

Both Roran and I ignored her and continued stuffing our cookies. This infuriated her and she snatched the plate from us and pushed us out of the kitchen. Laughing, Roran and I headed towards our rooms.

"Let's go to the bar after gym." said Roran and I nodded in agreement.

I changed into my gym outfit which consisted of black skin tight shirt and black elastic pants. Then I grabbed my black leather jacket and stuffed my phone, purse and gun in my shoulder bag.

I came out of my room at the same time as Roran and we both looked at each other realizing our outfits were exactly same. Looking like some bandits we headed towards the gym.

"Bye Emma." We both yelled in unison.
"Take care" she replied "Bring some flour, sugar, chocolate and strawberries on the way back." she added
"Text me the list. I can't remember these fucking things." said Roran.
"Language Mr Roran Swift." Emma's voice boomed
Roran face palmed himself as I laughed silently.
"What's so funny!?" asked Roran
"What's not funny!? Emma scolds you for saying fuck when you spend your nights fucking and killing enemies!" I said while laughing
Roran rolled his eyes at me and I just laughed.

We sat in Rorans black Ferrari as he drove away. My hand instantly moved towards the music player. I played Taylor Swifts 'Blank Space' on high volume while singing along it.

We reached the gym in ten minutes thanks to Rorans fast driving.
I swaped my card at the entrance and grabbed a drink from the fridge as I headed towards the treadmill.

**
Three hour later we both were dripping with sweat as we left the gym. We had used all the gym machines, than we boxed, than we used our guns for target training and then we fought against each other. This whole process left me dripping with sweat and a few scratches but other than that I was still fresh. No part of me was aching neither did I felt tired. Well that's what you call stamina.

Roran stopped his car outside my dad's gang warehouse which was more of a palace than a warehouse.
I grabbed some of my files as did Roran.
"How about we race back home?" asked Roran
"How many kilometers?" I asked while still arranging the files.
"Not much just 3 to 4." he replied
"OKs" I said

We dumped our files and other things in his car as he handed his car keys to a gang driver and asked him to bring the car to our home.
"Drive it with us in case we get tired." he added
"Very less chances of that." I claimed
"Grocery shopping is also there." Roran reminded me
"Ohh well than lets race till there and drive the rest of the way." I said
"Are you trying to run away from the task?" asked Roran with his eyebrows lifted.
"You wish." I said

With that we zipped our jackets, plugged Apple buds into our ears and broke into a run.
