Beauty and rage

chapter 4~the twins

"oh cara mia" my mother calls me dear while hugging me even though I told her thousand times that I don't do hugs

It's not like I can push her away, not because she's my mother and were same blood and shit excuse like that, no, I don't care if its blood that is connecting us, I don't care about that, its because she was the only one who took care of me as a child

"oh you're back" Antonio my mother's husband calls out

"yes" I say and hear two annoying voices that argue all the time

The twins

Who are they you might ask, they are Antonio's sons

Antonio and my mother Rosalina, or Rosa for short, they have been married past year, little longer might be but they have known each other for a while, my mother doesn't think I wouldn't know that she's been seeing someone and been out of the house way more than she usually is,

Don't call me controlling or harsh, I just know what my mother been through and don't want her to suffer more.

Antonio isn't a bad guy nor does he acts like it to me, he's good father to boys, someone like me would even say father that I never had but no, I don't care how he acts around his sons or towards me as long as he's good to my mom we're good.

As of my relationship with him isn't really good, I don't want to get close to people because protecting them from my enemies isn't easy task

"hii Silvia" Luca and Francis said at the same time and I just nod my head

"saliva tesoro why don't you show your brothers around they never been to London before" (honey)

"I amm- I can't i'm busy" I blur out

"doing what" mom asks me

"I need to choose new courses for my college and have to go shopping also for... collage" i lie, i have week to do those things

"good you will go shopping with your brothers"

"fratellastri" (stepbrothers) I correct her in Italian because twins don't know Italian

"doesn't matters" she gets close to me and says in whisper "it's been a year get to know them a little, they aren't bad kids... please"

I sigh and whisper back "fine"

~~~

We now are at the mall, with twins as request of my mom, surprisingly they are quiet but that doesn't mean I can't feel the glares that they are exchanging

"you guys are annoying the shit out of me just spill what do you want" I turn to them

"we were just-" he looks at his brother

"we forgot credit card that dad gave us" Francis said as he closed his eyes like he doesn't wants to see my angry face

"it's okay I will pay" i don't get angry there is no point in it right now

"what" they look at me in shock

"you don't have to"

"let's just get over with this"

After few hours of shopping we are done, twins really are trying to get close to me every time I would buy stuff or was shopping they would tell me that it would look beautiful on me or something like that but im still keeping my distance

"where should we eat" I ask them, I don't really eat fast foods

"were not hungry" Luca says shyly, but his stomach growlings were hard not to notice

"I am" i say

"oh then amm what about McDonald's" he suggests

"sure"

"why you don't like it" when did I said I didn't like it

"I don't know I never had it before" I answer and they look at me with their eyes widened

I started to look at the menu but all the burgers look the same to me so I don't know what to order, im confused but that doesn't show on my face

"we can order for you if you can't decide what to order" Francis says quietly, I nod and give him my card

I go take a seat and few minutes later they are back with bunch of food,

"Quarter Pounder with Cheese Deluxe, fries, Sweet 'N Sour Sauce and backed apple pie" I look at the burger and

"it looks nothing like it is on picture"

"yea that's true but it tasted good"

We started to eat and well known felling of someone watching me came cross

"are you okay" one of the twin asked, he probably saw I suddenly got tensed

"yea I just bit my tongue" I lie

It's too loud and noisy, I can't feel where his gaze is coming from but maybe it not him

It can't be im in London and he's in France

whatever

"do you guys know where the bathroom is here" I ask them and they told me where it was

I turned on the faucet and cold water started to pour, I splash water on my face

"it women's restroom you know that right" I question before opening my eyes

i know he's behind me

When I look into mirror and see him leaning against the door fame, his blue eyes are clocked on mine

He smiles, reveals his dimples along with it and says "how did you know it was me"

"how could I not" I sign "but the real question isn't that"

"then what is it"

"it's what do you want, I mean coming in London from France there has to be something, no?" I question but he doesn't say anything so I don't waist a moment and try to walk out

But as soon as he touches my arm to stop me I pull out a knife across his throat

" a knife are you flirting with me" he smirks

"I am not going to repeat myself, either say what you want or leave" I say to him

I walk out and see twins sitting in the same spot I left them

"are you guys ready to leave" they nod and take shopping bags

As soon as we got home I call Scarlett and tell her to find a man, I describe him to her in every detail i remember and tell her his name

"Silas"
