*Recap*
Ok. Lets go." He says and I follow him out of the kitchen.

Jennaia's pov

Inside the office(third person)

Sean goes inside the office.

"Si, what do you want?" Dimitri asks.

"I'm bringing your girl, she wants to talk to you." He says in a teasing manner.

"You ......... *sigh*...Let her in." He said.

Sean laujghs and opens the door for Jennaia to go in.

(Back to 1st pov)

I go in and Sean goes out.

"Jennaia, hi. How are you? Please, have a seat." He says looking up from his computer.

I sit on the chocolatey brown sofa. I think if I sat on the chair facing him I'd just shamelessly stare. I mean his hair tied back with blue light glasses on and a simple grey tee.

Y'know better safe than sorry.

"Thank y-you and hi, i-i'm good. And yourself? I could come b-back later when y-your not busy?" I say stuttering a few times. I mean, he's very nice, understanding and makes it hard not to stare but he's a Don.
I don't want to give him any reason to, y'know, put me 6feet under.

"I'm good. No, I'm done *closes laptop and takes off glasses*.
So how was the mall?
He says giving me his full attention.

"It was very nice, we loved it. Uhm, it's a-actually why I'm here. *Pause*
I want to say thank you for today.

No one has ever done that and not cared about the money.
I, we're very grateful for what you've done b-but it's, a lot.

So, i-if you have any job offer or anything I cou-could do at all for you, please let me know. You can deduct as much of a percent you want but I'm going to pay you back every single penny we took from you." I said.

He gets up from his chair and sits on the left arm of the sofa. Just a few millimeters away.

Why am I being punished like this? 🤦🏾‍♀️

"Jennaia, your welcome but I don't mind helping people at all, especially people who need it.

You don't have to pay anything back because I don't want you to feel indebted to me. Besides, I was the one who got myself into this." He said.

"I k-know you don't want that but the problem is, I'm already indeb-indebted to you. You've done so much and you still continue to do a lot for us." I said.

*Deep breath*, "I can see I'm not going to win this one am I?" He asks and I shake my head in response.

*Silence*

"Hmm, fine. I'll let you know if there are any jobs available." He says.

Wow. I did not expect that.

"You, i, thank you. Thank you so much." I said.

"You know, when you fight for something you have, this look, this fire in your eyes, a very stubborn fire which you can't put out. Keep that fire." He said.

And I nod.

"Good." He says.

"Um, Don, i wanted to ask you something else."

"Jennaia, please call me Dimitri, it sounds better and what do you want to ask?"

"Dimitri, I wanted to ask you if I could, um, learn Italian?"
