Dear diary...
And there she was, the most beautiful girl a man could see.
Swiftly swaying along the beach. Her long brown locks blowing in the wind.
My heart filled with joy and stomach full of butterflies as she locked eyes with me. Bright green eyes and a big smile on her face that lit up my entire life. The girl of my dreams.But I don't have time for love. Mafia bosses don't fall in love.
Until tomorrow...

Dear diary...
I met her again today but I didn't have time to talk. She's been on my mind ever since I layer eyes on her. But I can't get her involved with my life. I have people hunting me down and if anyone finds out I had a girlfriend they'd use her as bait.If only life was different. I wouldn't hesitate to ask for her name. Maybe I should I mean what harm can that do.
Until tomorrow...

3rd April 1962
Dear diary...
I haven't seen her today. But she was a distraction anyway.I shot a man today. I hated it but it had to be done or it would of been me. Ever since my dad died he left me in charge of his whole business. I saw how dangerous his life was ever since I was 6 and I knew one day it would be me. I've always hated conflict but my dad owned another group money that he never paid back so they...You know.
We're now know as the most dangerous mafia group in this time period. But that's not what I wanted but like my father always said
"la vita è pericolosa giocala come un gioco. nessuno ne esce vivo"
Translation for
"Life is dangerous play it like a game. No one comes out alive"
Until tomorrow...

Dear diary...
It's been two days since I last saw her and today I'm going back to Italy so I don't think I'll ever see her again. I don't know how I feel. I regret not asking for her name. Until I see her again il mio amore.

5th April 1962
Dear diary...
I saw a girl today. She looked very familiar . Long brown locks and bright green eyes that could make you fall in love with just a look. I was certain it's her. But what's she doing here? Maybe I'll see her again tomorrow.I never said why I came here did I? Well my biggest rival is here in Italy and I heard they are planning an assassination on me. I don't have a plan yet but I'm sure it'll be good enough to end them. If not then I have nothing to live for anyways.
Until tomorrow...

6th April 1962
Dear diary...
I spoke to her today. Her name is Eliza Ophelia Monroe. That name sounds so familiar.
She was wearing a long red silky dress and red lipstick.
*earlier that day*
"Hello" I said
"Hello Jacob" she said with a smirk on her face
"How do you know my name" I asked.
"Don't act like you don't know my father Fernando" she said as she moved her hand down my arm looking deep into my eyes.
"Monroe" I said in shock. My biggest rivals daughter.
"You may think I'm just an innocent vulnerable girl. But let me tell you Fernando I'm your biggest nightmare" she lent in and gave me a kiss on my cheek leaving a red lip mark and walked of.What do I do! It's as if she new I'd be there.
Until tomorrow...

7th April 1962
Dear diary...
I couldn't stay away. I met her again near the fountain I used to go to and make a wish whenever I felt sad.
*earlier that day*
"Monroe" I said as I made my way and stood next to her. She looked sad.
"Are you ok?" I asked. A tear dropped down her cheek.
"It's my father" she replied
"I can't tell you... I shouldn't even be talking to you he'll kill me" I reached into my pocket and took out a lira.
"I used to come here when I was younger and I would take out a lira and make a wish and then I'd throw it into the fountain" I said as I handed her the lira.
"I can't trust you Jacob you want to kill my dad so how do I know you won't kill me" she asked
"Your the most beautiful girl I've ever seen... I don't want to lose you before your even mine to lose" i replied. I looked down as the lira and told her to make a wish. She closed her eyes and threw the lira into the fountain.
"What is your real name Monroe" she looked at me and smiled. For a moment the whole world stopped as she looked into my eyes.
"That's a secret" she whispered as she turned around and walked of.I don't know how I feel. It's weird. This is the happiest I've ever been. It's scary because I have everything to lose yet nothing at the same time.
Until tomorrow...
