MY MAFIA MAN

CHAPTER 1

I get down from the taxi and quickly run towards the pizza shop.

It's raining heavily right now and it's super cold outside.  

Immediately, I run into the shop I feel so relieved but it is still a little cold so I clutch my long coat around my body tightly.

Good day miss.  How may I help you?, the pretty        Ask me.    

She has long black hair and pretty brown eyes.  Her dimple and sparkling white teeth makes her smile look so beautiful.    By her accent, I think she is of Spanish decent.   

Hello, please can I get a box of pizza?, I tell her.    

Alright, give me some minutes, she says and then goes to prepare the pizza for me.    

Wait no please make it two boxes of pizza, I tell her changing my mind.    

Ok, she replies giving me that beautiful smile of hers.      

I always come here every Friday to buy pizza.       I love pizza so much.    But for the past 3 years that I have been coming here, the            And I have never spoken past how are you?, what can I get you? and please can I get a box of pizza?.     

After an hour of waiting, my pizza is finally done.     After getting my pizza, I thank the         And walk out the shop to the taxi I came here in.        I told the middle-aged driver to wait for me so he can drive me home as well, am going to pay him extra for it.      

When I arrived at my apartment building, it is already so dark outside and still raining heavily.     I exit the taxi and pay the driver.    He thanks me and I reply by nodding my head.     
I run quickly into my apartment building to avoid the rain and cold.      I enter the elevator which takes me to the 20th floor of the building, that's where my apartment room is.     

When I get to my floor, I exit the elevator and start walking to room No109 which is my apartment room.  

On getting to my room Mrs Rosa Comes out from her room with a man.   They are talking and laughing happily with each other.      I tried to hurriedly open my door and get into my apartment but unfortunately, my key is just not cooperating with me today and Mrs Rosa has already spotted me.         

Natasha, your back from work.   
How was work today?, she ask me.      

Shit, I curse quietly.    I love Mrs          A lot.   She is very kind, sweet and supportive.     But she can be so clingy sometimes, she is too fond of me.    I know she means well by asking me how my day went but she is going to want to have a very long conversation with me right now.        But am so tired from work and just want to relax, eat my pizza and go to bed.

Hello Mrs Rosa.      Work was hectic and tiring.    I hope you are doing fine?, I ask.    I work as a banker and damn it's hectic.         

Am doing fine my daughter.    You know am old now so I try my best, she says smiling.     

Ok, am glad your doing fine, I say and wanted to enter my apartment but she stopped me.   

Fuck, I mutter lowly.       

Wait Natasha. I want to introduce you to someone, she says.     

Who?, I ask.    Natasha meet Leonardo travinni, my first son.       
Son, meet Natasha brown.   She is a very good friend of mine.    She is like a daughter to me.        She takes good care of me whenever am feeling down.   

She is the one that rushed me to the hospital the day I had a crisis.    Remember?, she ask her son.    

Yes, I remember mom, he says his eyes not leaving mine.      His voice is so deep, wow, I think to myself.    

It's nice to meet you, I say moving closer to him and bringing my hand forward for a handshake. 

He looks at my hand for awhile then smirks a little and then shakes it.    

It's my pleasure to finally meet you Natasha.    My mom talks about you a lot.    She really adores you, he says smiling.   

Wow, she does?. That's nice, I say smiling as well.  

Why don't you come join us for dinner.   You don't mind waiting back a little. Right son?, Mrs Rosa Says.    

I don't mind, he says looking at me.  His eyes has not left my face since he saw me.    Shit is creepy as hell.      

Am sorry Mrs Rosa, I can't join you guys for dinner.   Am really tired and just wanna go to bed and sleep, I say putting on a sad face.      

Ok darling.  I don't have a problem with that.   Make sure you have a good night sleep.  We will talk tomorrow, ok?, she tells me.    

Ok. Good night, I say to her.    Good night, sir, I say to her son who just stands there staring at me looking like a zombie.    

Good night beautiful, he says before I close my room door after entering into my room.  I also heard Mrs.             Say to her son.  Isn't she very nice and pretty?, then her son replies, yes, mom. She is.  She is a very attractive woman and seems really nice.      

Did that guy just call me pretty?, I ask myself after sitting on my chair.    That man is so creepy.  Whatever direction I move, his eyes follows me.   
He just stands there with an expressionless face, not moving and just stares at me.    He looked like a zombie.  A handsome zombie might I add.  

He is very handsome but really weird.    He looks very expensive though.      Am not surprised because Mrs Rosa Is always around really expensive looking people. 

 Sometimes I wonder if she is rich but if she is. 
Why is she living in this apartment building?.   Sure it's a middle class apartment building but if she really is rich.   She is supposed to be living in a very big and beautiful house, right?, I think to myself.   

After relaxing for a while.  I eat my delicious pizza then I go to bed to have my nights rest.
