THE SUN shines through the window of my bedroom as my curtains softly waved from the wind. It reminded me of my early childhood.

Every morning I would wake up beside my mother. My mother did not have a lot of money. Causing us to live in a tiny bachelor suit. I could tell it bothered my mother. Every birthday party we went to. The guilty look she wore as we watched the kids open there presents. But I was a child, I was happy just being with her.

I was 13 when my mother passed away. I had come home on afternoon from school. Police vehicles were parked outside my home. I ran, I don't think I ran so fast in my entire life. I bolted past the adults and into the bloodied house. Stairs covered in blood stains, like someone had
Been dragged down them. Walls were covered in blood. On the wall written in my moms own blood was 'she will be mine'. I watched in horror as my bloodied dead mother was being zipped up in a bag.

My father had to be involved. I just didn't know to what extent. The thought alone made my blood boil. I wanted to kill him.

A soft knock came at the door. "Come in." I softly spoke as I watched Giovanni peek his head in.

"Can I come in?" He asked asked hesitantly. I silently nodded my head. I watched as he fully entered the room. We watched each other in silence for a moment. He looked exhausted, but some how still looked good.

"I'll do the job." I spoke suddenly even surprising my self. Why did my mouth do that?

"It's ok Kitty." He said. It hurt a tiny bit when he said Kitty. But why? I told him just last night not to call me Adriana. "Im not here to tell you I'm not going to kill your dad, because I am. I can find someone els for those hits." He said coldly.

I pushed him away. And now he is cold with me. I really shouldn't of treated him that way last night.

"If anyone is going to kill my father it will be me." I said pushing the comforter off of me and hopping out of the bed.

"You will do as I say." He growled. "I let you disrespect me last night because you were weak, you do it again and you will be punished Kitty." I shivered.

He was right. I was being disrespectful towards him, but I didn't care.

"Is there a reason why you are here?" I asked, a little to sassy even for my liking.

"There is a mission I want done by tomorrow. I gave you time to wallow. It's 3pm and I have a plane waiting for you so get ready." He told me sternly. Any part of him that was soft towards me was now gone. "Here's the file." He told me throwing it on the bed.

Without another word Giovanni walked out the door. I stood there in silence. He has every right to think illy of me. I threw a shoe at him for gods sake. With a shake of my head I picked up the file on my bed.

Rodney Gambino, I knew the name automatically. Rodney was the son of Alle Gambino. Leader of the American mafias. Rodney was a very dangerous man. There was a long list of people he had killed in front of me. Giovanni really was giving be a better case.

I sighed and packed my bag light. I would get this done quickly and be home hopefully tomorrow.

I looked down at the file in front of me. Skimming for anything that stood out. I wanted to do this as quickly as possible as I saw he would be at a pizza store front. A drug business in a pizza store. I laughed at that out loud. But as my eyes skimmed where this pizza place would be, I groaned out loud. What place is so humid, gross and literally the worst place on the planet?

Florida.

I was sitting on the boom of a crane. The nights sky was full of stars. I whistled lowly as I slowly assembled my sniper rifle. I looked down at my watch 10:02. I smiled as I went back to assembly.
