The Lily Underground

25.

No wait I thought why would I need to prove myself? I've already told them who I am and my reputation which should be more than enough.  Who the hell are they to force themselves into my life, make rules for how I live and making me need to prove my capabilities? - Enough, I don't want to do this anymore, this was never the life I wanted.

"Zack I'm done with you - all of you", "you forced yourselves into my life, presented me with your extravagant life as if you hoped that it would hide the fact that I left everything behind to be with you, I can't and I won't do this anymore. Truly I had dreamed of the moment I would meet family again but right now, you are expecting me to leave the ring behind, the ring that saved me. And yes I could fight with Jace but I'm not going to, I don't need to prove myself anymore. I am Lily the name should cary enough weight."

"So what you are saying is?" - Niko looked at me with so much guilt, he knew who Lily was, he has heard about me so many times  and it was clear that he knew how wrong they were.

"I'm going back to New York and yes the Italians can come after me as much as they want I will be ready"

They were all mad? disappointed? - truly I had no idea although it was very obvious that Zack was furious

"I won't force you to stay but if you step out of the front door today you will never be able to step one foot in this house again"

I wanted to punch Zack so bad, who the hell does he think he is?

"Living without you for the past seventeen years hasn't.. well let's just say that I won't even realize you are no longer in my life"

I knew that was a lie, but I couldn't show them that I cared for them that every second from the day mom died, I had only thought about finding my other family members - my brothers my dad.

"Well if that is the case Miya then I hope you won't regret your choice"

"I won't", "you can all leave now I need to pack my stuff"

If I didn't make my brothers and Jace leave now they would see me cry something I couldn't show them.

Why hadn't anyone said anything to Zack maybe objected to his idea, but as the heir I guess they had to accept his choice.

...

So there I was not even a month had passed and I was leaving my brothers. My life, their lives it seemed as if our lives were just too far apart, maybe they weren't but we couldn't accept how different we had become, how different we each other had become.

I heard a knock my door it was Niko

"what is it Niko im kind of busy"

" I just thought you should know that you can always call me if you need me or if you just want to talk. You know Zack has made a decision, and I can't do much about it but the least I can do is to be there for you, if you are ever in any trouble. Although I am very aware that you probably don't need me"

"You're right I don't need you,  at least not right now but I promise I'll give you a call.

It was becoming dark outside and I realized that tomorrow morning this would all become a memory.

Today there was one person I needed to have by my side - I miss you mom.
