He said what? I was stunned due to his unbelievable words, is he serious right now? He can't be, he knows what he said right?? I looked at him with my eyebrows slightly crushed, but he just looked at me with blank expression But soon that cold face turned into a mischievous smile, he wasn't smiling more like laughing, I was dumbfounded but soon he stopped and looked at me while smiling and said, "Don't dream, Ms., Wait I haven't asked your name right?", He added "What can I call you?"
But then the situation is annoying me, "that doesn't matter, first tell me why are you here?" , He stood up and his eyes were carrying a dark look, "if you won't tell me your name, I can't tell you the reason why I am here".
I sighed and decided to surrender, "Anna Quinn", his eyes went wide and he sat beside me making himself comfortable on my bed, "you're Zeff's?" He asked "Lil sister, now you know so tell me why are you here and wait, this is my bed and yet you have made yourself comfortable on it"
"That means you are Mr. Daniel Quinn's daughter", he surprised me with his question because after ages someone took my father's name. My eyes lit up and I got a bit excited. "How do you know my father?" I asked "You're father.... adopted me and put me in this world of gangster, I was a bit angry and rude first because I thought he adopted me just for his work but then I got in an argument with him, I asked him, "did he adopted me for this ridiculous work, I just wanted to be your son and you made me this" but then he said something that makes me keep going" he said while looking down,
"What did he say?", I wanted to know more "The position you are in Ace was supposed to be Zeff's, yeah, Zeff is just my son but you are my shadow, my weakness, my friend, my partner and my Son! Zeff doesn't have the quality that I wanted in my son but you do have, you are more than him to me"
"And from that day I decided to devote my whole life to his feet, I never saw or met someone as humble as your father even though he was a gangster but he was well known for his noble act and I am so glad I was orphan at least I was adopted by Mr.Quinn"
He finally looked up at me and our eyes met, but my curiosity grows more and more "Why did he suicide" I asked,
"It wasn't suicide Anna,
"it was a murder" he said and tears were ready to fall from my eyes, and after years I got to know that my father never suicide but was murdered, my mind stopped working and my hands were trembling, breaths weren't normal it was getting faster and faster, and with that I felt a warm palm covering my left hand, it was Ace's hand. He grabbed both of my hands and made me look at him,
"You won't be able to handle , what I am about to say now, you need to stay strong enough to hear me because you are just like Mr. Quinn's soul, your father was like a rock from outside all strong but he was so weak from inside and that's what you are from outside, WEAK! So be strong enough to hear my words"
"The person who killed your father is Zeff"
No way, he is lying after all they both are enemies maybe he is manipulating me and then he might kill my brother, Zeff would never do that moreover no one would do that to their own father! No fucking way , this guy right here is a stranger and there are 100% possibilities that he is lying! To kill my brother and I can't let this happen
"Get out from here or else I will scream and call my brother" and he knew this would be coming, "I know you won't believe me so, I won't force you on this but in case you change your mind! Then just call me, I am leaving my business card here" he said while getting up and placed his card in my hands, while he already made his way to the window. "Wait" I said
I went towards him and looked down, gosh! how will he jump from here to there, "you are really gonna jump from here?" I asked while looking at him and pointing my finger towards downward direction
"Yes" he replied by putting his hands in his pockets, "your bones might break" I said by avoiding eye contact, but he came closer, closer and closer,
"Don't worry about me, worry about yourself darling" he tucked my hair strand putting it behind my ear and making me look at him, his face was shining due to moonlight,
"Here you go, you are just like this"
He took out something from his pocket and handed it to me and then he jumped without saying anything else, I was on an urge to scream his name my eyes popped out by seeing his boldness and commitment towards his work. I saw him running out and jumping from the gate as he was about to sit in the car but he turned to look at me before going as he waved at me goodbye and unknowingly I smiled,
Stop Anna he was here to ruin you and nothing, i closed the windows and looked at the thing that he gave me was a....
"Ferrero Rocher", i chuckled while looking at it and got in my bed to drift into sleep
"He is such a flirt"
