The Mafia's Daughter

ADAPTATION

MABEL'S POV
It's been a week here. All I do is bath,eat ,walk around the room, do my assignment and join classes online. Within this week I found out that my biological parent are very influential. Just because I had to take a week off classes and relax all classes were changed to be held online. Even lecturers who could never give tests online or have a class online all did it online. I guess there is more to this family than I know.

  From my window I saw people come in and go. Alot of people in suits and nice cars. Emily comes by everyday. She said the house scares her she do not want move in. Ouch I know right. Johnny can not move in because he's a boy and my mum would obviously agree with my biological parents on that no boys allowed. I dragged myself to the bathroom. I was finally going back to school and I wanted to move back into my old room but it seems like something that won't be possible now. I was still getting used to my luxurious bathroom and walk in closet. I choose a random black tank top and short black jeans added a black Nike to match, threw in my laptop and other accessories and walked out.

Oh my gosh!!! It was Laura. That woman has been nosy all around and as for her husband the scary man I haven't seen hin after the incident and I didn't even wanna see him but a part of me wanted to know him more.

Sorry I might have scared you. Well you're dad is back home and we wanted you to join us for dinner. She asked with a smile. At the sound of dad I flinched a little. Dad?? That sounded so foreign on my tongue. I looked at her and shook my head. I started to walk away. Flora is going to be there. She added. At the thought of my mum I knew I had no choice but to be there. She has been telling me to give these people a chance as they are also my family. I groan and decided to follow her. Oh and please say my mum not Flora. I added not looking up to her.

The dinning room was huge. I saw Mr Tiago at the head of the table and Laura ushered me to other head of the table. I hesitated but Mr Tiago voice came through, Sit down already girl. I simply sat. Something in the man's voice demanded obedience. Immediately as I sat Ash and Chloe entered. It took my a few minutes to process stuff because it's been a whole week since I saw Ash. With Chloe she comes with Emily to visit all the time. Ash face had a little cloth of blood and I was wondering where he got that. My mum entered later with my grandma.

I stood up and went straight into her hands. Gosh I missed my family, my home, my little freedom, my ability to not worry where I was and why I was there. My little angel, we're so sorry. Here I brought cookies. My grandma gave me her now customized packaged cookies. I remember anytime I went to her place I could smell it right from my room and anytime I could do part time at the bakery I would be smelling it. I always gave her the idea to customize but she refused. It brought me a little joy she considered. These thought just made tears drop from my eyes. Damn this is all that I would have ever wanted. We sat down and eating began. Silence fell at the table.

How have you been Mabel? A question I didn't expect from Mr Tiago popped out. I was a little surprised. It alright here but there is no place as home. I replied sternly. Everyone turned to look at me.

Well this is home now. Get used to it. He replied back sternly.
Like father like daughter. Laura whispered silently.
I can see she's enjoying this so called bond.
Am going to be driving you to school also. Ash and Chloe will come along as well to make you feel comfortable. Wow this man is quite surprising in his ways to show care and love. When he speaks he dosent request but commands who does he think he is. Well I can drive myself or take the bus or whatever. Thanks for the offer. I replied back stubbornly. Everyone looked up to me even mum and grandma. What?! I asked myself. This man gotta ask and not always command.
