''Damien you would never guess who is here,'' Tony said clearly, he was angry and I could guess either Arthur or Brad. But Arthur would give notice if he was coming so the later.

''Brad?''

''Yes, he is here, and he wants to talk to you.''

What does he want now I sighed and followed Tony leading to where Brad was. 

''Damien!'' Brad said cheerfully. 

''What now Brad? Are we this interesting that you keep following us or have you fallen in love with one of us?'' 

''Um I'll go with the first one he said. I heard that you had a meeting in your house, and someone saw many cars coming to your house. So, I would like to know what was happening. Brad said getting comfortable.

''Someone saw? You cannot be serious. If you came all the way to tell me nonsense you better leave Damien said getting irritated.

''But you have not answered my question, Damien.'' 

''People cannot visit their own. Is that what you mean?'' 

''No, but your people look suspicious, and I do not understand why your house is filled with only men. Don't you have a girlfriend in here? Brad asked looking around. 

''Get out!''

''What, why the hurry Damien we...''

''Get. The. Fuck. Out!'' Damien said through gritted teeth.

''Just leave Brad,'' Joaquin said showing him out.

''Fine am leaving but we are not done he said and left.''

''This Brad problem needs to be taken care of soonest and I think i know the best way of keeping his ass out of our affairs,'' Damien said. 

''Finally, we are talking,'' Tony said excitedly.

Myra's POV

It has been a week since Damien and his friends visited our diner. I admit that I really want to see him again and even get to know him and know what is beyond his tall and handsome features, but that is not even possible I mean look at him, Expensive car and clothes am probably not his type. Leave alone that. We have never even exchanged meaningful words or sit down with him and talk. I brushed my thoughts away as I went to serve a customer. Today Mrs. Mabel did not come to work. She insisted that she stays at my apartment with Giada and look after her. Time went by fast, and it was closing time. It was eight in the evening, and it was late. I closed the door and headed towards the junction to wait for a cab. Suddenly a car pulled up beside me. I did not even look at it. I opened my bag and removed a pepper spray ready to face whoever. The person slid down the window. My heart was pumping hard probably the adrenaline.

''Myra.'' How did the person know my name? I decided to turn around and look.

''Damien Jesus Christ you scared me!'' I said holding on to my heart which was thudding so hard.

''Am sorry I did not mean to scare you.'' He said getting out of the car. ''Why are you walking at this time? it is very late.'' He asked worry in his voice.

''Yes, I know but Mrs. Mabel was not in today so,'' I said shrugging. ''I am glad that it was you who came out of the car.'' I blurted. I was really glad.

''Really?'' He said a small smirk appearing on his face.

''Yes, really,'' I said hurriedly. ''Otherwise,'' I said showing him the pepper spray.

''Okay okay, okay.'' He said raising his hands in surrender. ''Let me drive you home.'' He offered. 

I agreed. ''What were you doing here anyway,'' I asked him. 

''Um, I was coming from work.''

''Oh.''   

Myra this is your chance my inner self told me to talk to him and get to know him.

''How old are you.'' I suddenly asked. He looked at me and then smirked.

''What, do I look like a potential boyfriend?'' He asked jokingly.

''Well... I... um... '' I tried to formulate words, but they did not come out.

''Am twenty-six.''

''oh,'' I said again ''And you, how old are you?'' He asked.

''Twenty-one''.

 ''Oh.'' He spoke. Oh, that is an interesting word I thought. There was a sudden silence an awkward one.

''So where is Gia's father?'' He asked that caught me off-guard. I shifted in my seat uncomfortably before answering. ''It is a long story,'' I said and looked out of the window. I was not going to pour out my guts to a stranger about Gia. Not that it is a crime to tell your story. But not now.

After some time, we arrived at my place.

''Hey, am sorry I did not mean to pry into your business.'' He spoke.

''No, it's okay I am just not ready to talk. Especially to a stranger'' I added jokingly.

''I understand he said.''

We said our goodbyes and he left. Wow. 


Hello, my lovely people, I wanted my Damien to be a caring person, understanding and all that. We know he is a mafia boss, but it won't hurt him or us when he is being soft on Myra.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
