The Life of a Thug(no one cares about)

Bad Table Manners

"No one ever cares about the thug working for the mafia boss. If he has a family, a love life, depressed or happy about his job".

"Well I do care, and I guess I'm the only one that care so it's gonna be a short story".

"You want to know why else I care?
Because I'm that depressed newly engaged thug who faces life and death situation working for the boss".
"I'm also that guy that's about to loose the love of his life and his only son.
Don't think too much, I'm not loosing them to death or anything".

"Here's the story,
My name is Mark, I wouldn't have told you my name because you wouldn't care but I'm telling you my story and every main character's name should be known"

" Hell yes! I'm a main character. For once all attention is drawn to my story"

" Okay, I'm twenty-seven years old and you wouldn't bother doubting because you think I'm insignificant. Well don't feel guilty, you're not the only person who's never doubted"

" Not as if you doubted but I'm actually twenty-four but every single person believes I'm twenty-seven, including my fiancee 😬"

" I'm still wondering what's so important about my story but every single person is important. Even those I killed mistakenly during some operations for the boss. I'm sure you just believed that right away...damn! So gullible!"

"Okay,back to the story. I'm twenty-seven. Sorry twenty-four and wealthy or rather living well to thee. I don't actually live well in the actual sense cause I hate my job(though it pays me really well). I work for the biggest mafia group in Mexico. You don't need to know the name though (all attention is on me not some mafia group)."

"Ivy is or was the love of my life. I don't know. You can say it's complicated or about to be complicated or about to be less complicated because I think I'm about joining the single gang(another very popular gang with members who don't know themselves) if I don't say what I'm supposed to say now to her"

'Ivy I swear to you. I'm not a thug. You heard wrong'

'Liar!' Ivy shouted back

"Well I guess it didn't work, so I'm moving to the single gang if I keep lying"

' I'm sorry Ivy'

'Sorry for?' my pink haired princess questioned me.

'Lying to you'

'About?' Ivy asked again as if she knew all the lies I had told her.

"But seriously, women and their problems. She should obviously know what I'm apologizing for. Must I be specific?"

' C'mon Ivy. You know what I'm apologizing for. You're all I got. You and my baby Junior'

" Well, at this point, I was really sentimental and honest"

' Liar! I'm sure you've got other hoes and side pieces to keep you company whenever I'm not around. Probably you even have a baby mama '

' Ivy?'

" Well this time I wasn't going to fight for anything again. I'm being honest at the moment and she's still mad at me. Nahh I'm totally not set for this. Besides, I didn't even tell you what time it is. It's 4pm and I've not had breakfast, neither was lunch served. But I think I'm gonna be eating breakfast for dinner with Ivy's attitude".

' You are speechless right?' She said as though she had caught me at the neck.

' Ivy baby, I'm not having this convo with you okay? What's for dinner? I'm so hungry'

"I'm totally not getting a breakfast as dinner. No not this night. Not ever"

'Hungry? You must be kidding right now'

' Ivy, you know I'm not. Okay, let's talk this over dinner'

' Get out my house!'

" Ouch, I wasn't expecting that. But it was my house. Oh well, I bought for her"

' Sure sure' I motioned to leave.

'Erm... where's Junior?' I asked realizing she really wanted me to leave.

' None of your business' she replied furiously.

" But seriously I'm the innocent and hurt one here. C'mon how can she chase me out of my own house or rather her house I bought. Don't judge me that I lied about being a thug, I was planning a retirement after our marriage. Incase you don't know, I studied nursing at Harvard but there's always buts and it's not important. Maybe you'll get to find out in the next or next two chapters or probably at the end of the novel before I die...I know you didn't believe this one. The truth is bitter 😔"
