The air was cold, the wind blew like a hurricane was about to happen. The streets were dead, all the shops were shut the only light there was, was the bright street lamps beaming down on me.

The streets looked abandoned, almost like everyone had fled and gone to another town in New York. This was the outskirts of New York, it was were the worst of people lived and were the worst clubs were for the creeps.

I heard chatter behind me as I turned my head slightly as I saw two men, drunk. They had alcohol in there hand as one of them pointed at me stabbing knives in me with his eyes.

"Hey little lady, why you going so fast?" One of them asked behind me as I felt revolted by ' little lady '. They laughed as I ignored them, speeding up my steps and walking quicker.

"Come on, give us some" They both said taking big gulps of there beer and making disgusting gestures at me as a black SUV pulled up as a man got out of the car.

"Phill, Jim. Ive told you both multiple times" The man started as I stopped dead in my tracks turning around. I hardly got a look as it was too dark.

"B-but we were just"- They were shushed by the sound of a gun clocking or something like that.

"Im not stupid enough to listen to you both and your shit, this is the fifth time" There was a serious tone in the mans face making me gulp.

"Sorry Mr Romano, we're both so sorry. We will never act in such a way ever again!" They begged making the man with the gun laugh.

"Oh I know you wont" Thats when I saw and heard the gunshot making me flinch and scream. Blood covered the cobble pathway as the man looked at me.

"Shit, Roman out of the car get this dealt with. Get the girl away" He said as he got back in the car as I ran away. I put my hood up not stopping running as I heard the car pull away.

What did I just watch?

I unlocked my front door as I locked it again throwing my keys on the sofa. The sound of the gunshot still filled my ears as I sat down taking a few deep breaths.

"My god" I whispered to myself getting up from the couch. I grabbed a glass from the cupboard and filled it up with water as I took a sip my breathing still raspy.

It was late at night, extremely late and I had to go do book signing tomorrow.

I had recently published a book and it blew up, more than I thought it would. It was my first and im so glad people enjoyed my work and hopefully I would be top of the charts one day.

A girl could dream.

I took my coat of hanging it up before walking upstairs and hearing my grandmothers voice.

"Babciu, co robisz, nie śpisz, jest już późno?" (Grandma, what are you doing awake its late?) I asked, I came from a Polish family my grandmother didnt speak hardly any English at all.

"Kochanie, nie mogę spać, to łóżko jest niewygodne i martwię się o ciebie" (Dear, this bed is uncomfy and i have been worrying about you) She replied as I tucked her in shutting her curtains and turning of her lamp.

"Mówiłam ci, że się o mnie martwisz, to niezdrowe". (Ive told you about worrying for me, its not healthy) I added sitting down on the edge of the bed kissing her forehead as she stroked my cheeks with her fragile hand.

"Kocham cię tak bardzo, kochanie, musisz przestać się mną opiekować. Masz swoje życie, do zrobienia". (I love you so much dear, you need to stop looking out for me you have tour own life to get to) I shook my head shushing her as I stood up.

"Śpij dobrze, kocham cię bardziej" (Sleep well I love you more) I added before gently shutting her bedroom door and walking down the hallway into mine.

I opened the door shutting it behind me as I took my shirt off and lingerie as I picked out a jumper and some shorts, taking of my jeans and putting them in a washing basket.

I got into bed turning off my lamp as I stared at the ceiling. I was still wondering what I saw tonight, was I meant to see that? Was it fate? Who were those people in the car?

My god I needed to shut up, like right now. I was thinking way to much about this whole entire thing. It was over and done with and thats that.

I hope.

"We cant be dealing with idiots like that anymore, its going to get us in shit" Roman started as I sat with my legs on the desk reloading my guns.

"That was an innocent woman they were messing with tonight, we cant have people like that in this city" I argued back as Roman only rolled his eyes as I took a deep sigh.

"Theres bigger problems in this city then some men who cant handle themselves being drunk" My fist slammed down on the desk as Roman immediately shut up.

"They weren't just men who cant handle being drunk, we've seen them before and I think its safe to say there rapists, you idiot" I snapped as Roman walked out of my office and came back in with one of the guys i've been after for the past week.

"And what about this guy? We just going to keep him alive now or what?" Roman went on with himself holding the man tightly making both of there skin red.

"Are you some sort of fucking idiot? He deserves to die hes a fucking kidnapper" I stood up walking over to the two with a knife and slitting his throat as Roman let him fall to the floor.

"People are as bad as each other in this world, even you and I are capable of this everybody is. It depends on how far you push them" I added.

Honestly, what do you all think of this chapter im curious.
