"Room 456, that's all you" he leaned against the wall outside of the door

"Cain, you came to help me" i rest my hand on the door handle

"I came to lookout for flirting men" he raises an eyebrow

"If you aren't going to help me assassinate your parents then why are you even here" i crossed my arms

"You didn't even know I had a living nonno, i feel like i'm helping a bunch" he crossed his arms looking at the wall in front of him

"You're right, I'm sorry" i walked over towards him and went in for a kiss

"i like this idea" he bit his lip

our lips were hovering over each other's

when i punched him in the gut

a short breath came out of his mouth while he clutched his stomach with his hand, bending over

"bitch" i mumbled and opened the room door

i opened the door to a faint beeping noise coming from a heart monitor

the man laying in the bed looked like a zombie

mentally dead but physically alive

this poor man

"who are you" he groaned out, running out of breath as he spoke

he attempted to lift his hand to point at me

"i'm Scarlett Rose sir" i sat down beside his bed

i don't think it's safe to give him my real name

"Scarlett Rose? Are you a American?" He slowly turned his head towards me

"Nope Italian" i forced a smile

"What do you know about your son, Roman Bianchi?"

"mostro" he exhaled out

"what do you mean by that" i tapped my finger on my thigh

"Roman and Nala, they were always evil. They would continuously try to kill me and take my authority." he coughed harshly

"take your time" i said, mentally taking notes

"he met nala at a bar, she used to be one of his one night stands. But he kept her around as more than that. Me and my son got along perfectly until that bitch came around."

not shocked, at all

"she worked so hard to get rid of me so my son could take my place. But i don't think she is doing it for my son's gain" he sighed

"are you implying that nala wants to kill her husband next for power?"

"sì" he rubs his temple

"but why would she wait so long, instead of just getting rid of him now?" i question

"she is waiting for the evidence to die off. Me, Cain, and now you. That's why she wants us both dead" malu said

"for someone with dementia sir you remember a lot" i chuckled trying to make him feel better

but he somehow found a way to make it sad again

"Scarlett, dementia erases good memories. But never the bad. I trust you to do the right thing with this information" he grabbed my hand almost pleading with me

"i will sir. Sleep well" i covered him with the blanket then walked out of the door

"So what did you find out." cain said walking up behind me

"Wouldn't you like to know" i rolled my eyes

"Yeah that's why i'm asking" he scoffed

"well you're asking the wrong person." I stopped walking

"Dementia patient Malu Bianchi. Room 456" i looked at him dead in his eyes

"cain, tell me right fucking now. Are you going to help me or continue to slow me down?"

"i'll help you amore"

"then show me" i started walking through the empty hallways again

"see you tomorrow" i yelled to him and we split ways

i got into my car turning on the engine when i saw a face in my window making me scream

i held my hand on my chest where my now racing heart was, seeing it was cain

i rolled the window down

"cain, usually when people say see you tomorrow they mean it" i say annoyed

"i need to live with you"

huh

"no you don't"

"mia the closer we are the easier it is to share information, correct?"

"i mean yea, but we have phones too"

"mia" he looked me in my eyes

"cain"

i don't want this to turn into something it shouldn't be

"only if you promise not to make moves on me, i'm not ready for that again" i sigh

"deal" he smiled

i unlock the car door

"i can't believe i'm doing this" i mumble

once he got in i drove into the distance

preparing for what is about to go down at home
