Sweet drug

Mother

Aurora's POV:
I woke up while the sun was hitting me directly in the face. It felt a bit weird being in another room when you are used to waking up everyday in your own room but I guess that has to change now. I stand up, did some stretches, opened the window, did the bed and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face.

Just when I was about to leave the bathroom I heard a knocking on the door. "Come in." I said when the door slowly opened and Enzo came in. "Good morning." He greeted me while I did the same thing. "I will be going to work now so you are basically all alone. Here is a phone and the only number in there is mine for now." He handed me a phone and also added, "in a few minutes my housemaid will come and make u something to eat and clean the house. After it when I come home from work we can go out shopping..." he stopped and eyed me up and down. "Okay I understand. Can I also go out alone?"

"No, you can only go out with me or a bodyguard of mine but definitely not alone." He stated. "Anyways I will go out for work now so you better stay put and don't do anything stupid, got it?"

He's so fine. Girl what?

I just nodded my head and told him to have fun at work. Now he's gone and I'm all alone. Damn did he really got me a new phone? I mean that's actually crazy. So I unlocked the phone and saw his number saved as 'Enzo Russo' and immediately went to edit it to 'coldie❄️' which seems more my type. I watched some YouTube videos, played some music, danced and god knows what. I am sooo bored. But as long as I will go shopping with him after he comes back I'm good.

Suddenly I heard someone opening the door, so i immediately went downstairs to see who it was. It was and elderly woman with black hair tied into a little bun and small. Not saying that I'm taller. "Hello!" I greeted her with a big smile. She strangely looked at me but then smiled too greeting me back. "You're Ms Romano right?", she said with a thick accent which is probably also Italian. "Yes, I am but please call me Aurora and you are?" I tried asking her back not trying to sound rude. "A pretty name for a beautiful woman. My name is Beatrice, dear." She smiled softly. 'Beautiful woman', 'Dear' it is weird to hear that. My mom never ever called me like that let alone someone else but she just did. I felt my heart hurting a little because the fact that my mom never called me like that hit me hard.

"So dear how old are you?" She asked while unpacking her bag. "I am 20 years old." I answered her. "Ohhh that's a really good age." She smiled and started cleaning the kitchen. "Are you hungry?". "No thank you." I smiled at her sweetly. She's so cute. "Can I ask something too?". "Ofc cara (dear)."

"How long have you been working for Enzo?" I asked out of curiosity. She thought about a moment and then answered me, "I worked for his parents first so I know Enzo since he had diapers on but I started working for him after his parents died in a car accident." Damn that must have been terrible for him. "Oh that's really sad it must have been so hard for him." Nah cause that's really fucked up.

"Yeah it was, I think he was about 16? When they passed away, after it his uncle took care of him ever since and me a little bit. He was trained hard to join the Mafia at such a young age. The sweet little boy is not the cold, fearless Mafia." Oh wow. No idea he is so cold I mean who wouldn't be cold after this happend to you. As she finished the kitchen I tried to help her but declined my help i don't know how many times I asked her so she gave up and let me vacuum the floor and do all the 'hard' things so her back won't hurt.

For about 3 hours we cleaned the whole manson and we are tired asf now. "Thank you so much Cara for helping me out!" She thanked me while sitting on the couch. "Oh no need to thank me really it's nothing!" I told her and got up to get us both a class of water with tons of ice. "Here you go." Placing the glass infront of her on the table and mine too. I laid down the couch and turned on the TV watching some dramas. She explained me the whole situation what happened and everything.

I think I have never felt happier. Is this how it feels to having a caring mother or something like that?? Cause if it is please never stop.

There was a door right next to the living room closed. "What is in there?" I asked pointing out my finger at the pop a door. "That door you should never enter or open it." "Okay." I replied still being curious what was behind it? Cause when we were cleaning we didn't go in there but whatever.

The more we talked to each other the closer we got and she suddenly told me to lay my head on her lap telling me how lucky my mother is having a daughter like me and how happy she is while infact she is the quite opposite of everything but I didn't tell her. She slowly started stroking my hair and as she did that I couldn't handle it anymore and tears began to fall down but I stayed silence so she wouldn't notice how pathetic I look right now. Cant believe I'm feeling more appreciated by a stranger I met a few hours ago then my mother that had been here for my whole life.

My eyes slowly closed and tried to relax. Little did I know I feel asleep then.
