Mafia fascinations(2nd book in mafias obsession series)

chapter 43: Help me the child is crying

Waking up I realised something was wrong. Something felt off. I just couldn't put my finger on it.

Going to take a shower and picking my outfit, a white skirt and matching blouse, my purple cardigan, some frilly socks and my Mary Janes, I plaited my hair into two braids. Smiling softly and skipping downstairs.

I decided to make everyone waffles with strawberries and cream for breakfast, hoping everyone will like it and placed their plates in their places, before sitting down and waiting for them all to come downstairs.

"Is that waffles I smell?" Liver asked, spying the waffles and making me nod softly. But before he went to eat one, I shook my head and gestured that we were to wait for everyone to come down first.

"Fair I guess." He shrugged and went to the living room, to play a video game. "Wanna play with me?" He asked, and I nodded in response.

Sitting beside him, we started to play the game together, seemingly having some sort of bonding moment as we waited for the others.

Eventually they all came downstairs and we ate our breakfast together, them laughing over conversations whilst I was silently giggling.

"Allia, is everything ok?" Fern asked, looking at me and seeing how quiet I was. Nodding my head, I only prayed she wouldn't realise what was truly up. Fiddling with my skirt, I kept my eyes down, trying to keep back my tears.

I wished I could talk them, communicate about how I was feeling. But communication was very much impossible when you physically couldn't talk.

As everyone went back to what they were originally doing, I decided to wash up the dishes. But as I was doing so all I could think about was how I couldn't talk. I hated when I went involuntarily non-verbal. It felt like the worst feeling in the world and it was even worst that I couldn't communicate how it made me feel.

Eventually giving up, I sat on the floor with my head in my hands, silently crying.

"Allia is everything ok here? The waters been running for a while." Liver stated, walking into the room and seeing me.

"Guys!" Instantly I grabbed his hand, trying to stop him from getting the others attention but it was too late. The tears seemed to be streaming down my face quicker at the worry that the others would judge me.

"Baby girl.. breathe. what's wrong?" Lye asked, making tears fall even more. I wished I could tell him what was wrong, I wished I could communicate.

"Wait.. darling, are you non-verbal?" Sadie asked softly, making me nod my head. "Aww is someone just my soft baby that needs some cuddles?" Her tone instantly changed to a soft mama's voice as she spoke to me. Making me wrap my arms around her as she played with my hair.

"You can come play with us if you likes!" Fynn suggested, holding his hand out to me which I took.

"We were running our own shop, you can help me run it and Fynn can be the customer!" Summer squealed. I loved how they were making me feel inclusive, instead of making fun of me.

As we played together, the others watched over us, like they were older siblings or babysitters.

As time went past, Fern and Sadie decided to make us a picnic whilst the others got us ready to go to the park.

"You want uppies?" Lye asked, as I did uppies hands to him. I wanted to be in dada's arms, to feel him holding me and keeping me protected. Nodding my head, he picked me up and placed me on his hip as I wrapped my arms around his neck, swinging my feet. "My adorable little girl aren't you" he cooed, making me nod my head with another silent giggle.

Eventually, when we were all ready, we made our way towards the park. Finding a place to sit, we took out our colouring books and lunch.

Colouring a picture determinedly, Lye looked over at me and chuckled. "What are you colouring that's so important baby?" He asked softly and I showed him the paper with a smile.

I had drew all of us, taking time on each of us.

"Aww! That's adorable!" Fern smiled, looking at the picture.

Once we all finished eating, we decided to take a walk by the sea, making the day a lot more fun. Summer and Fynn decided they wanted to build a sand castle, Liver and Blade instantly chased each other whilst splashing water at one another, making me smile, Sadie, Zara and Fern decided to sit and talk about things, Sadie allowing me to lay my head on their lap as they did, and Lye and Creed watched over us protectively.

Everyone's role seemed to fit them perfectly, the fact that they treated me no different other than being a little more careful and protective, brought a smile to my face. They weren't judging me, instead they were looking after me like it was in their nature to do so.

Eventually we all decided to go up to the pier to relax for a bit. Lye holding me in his lap, as he brought out a cigarette, smoking a bit of it before I took it out of his mouth and placed it in mine.

"Hey!" he chuckled, but simply ruffled my hair and allowed me to smoke it. My dada. Looking over at Sadie, laughing at something Fern had said, my smile brightened. And my mama.

As Lye and Sadie gave each other a kiss and whispered the words I love you to each other, I felt even happier. Mama and Dada sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes a baby in a golden carriage. I'm tha baby! A soft giggle left my mouth at my thought.

"What you giggling about little one?" Lye asked me, placing a kiss on the top of my head, but all I did was smile at him. He would never know my secret, or maybe he already did and thought so too.
