Rage

♠THIRTY THREE♠

•Salvatore Camara•

Every drink I had, tasted blank. I was starting to believe It had nothing to with my taste buds but with the liquid in the glass.

I gulped the last drop, placing the glass on the counter, as the female bartender stared at my stoic expression with disappointment.

"This would be the trick" she stated, pouring different coloured liquids into a stainless bottle.

"I doubt" I state as I wait for the magic she's about to shock me with.

she starts shaking the bottle and only then did I notice she was trying to be seductive, her big blue eyes stare at me wildly as she adjusts her dress lower to expose her cleavage.

So her trick wasn't the cocktail. For fuck sakes, poor lady thinks I'm into her. Because unknowingly I've been entertaining the shitty idea.

Instead of being a dick and telling her to entirely fuck off, I look at her with nothing but pity.

"I have a girlfriend" I state blankly, her performative puppy eyes suddenly turn pale.

"Excuse you, I- I wasn't —" she drops her napkin. "I'm no— not—"

I raise my brows at her hesitation towards responding.

"I need to go" she turns around and speed walks to the back of the bar.

Wow, that's new. I relax on the stole as I spot Antonio leading a red haired girl into another room. That fucking man whore.

I still find it odd that every time i see him, he's with a different girl, and yet I'm the one who Rocco can't take his eyes off. Instead of bothering about me soo much he should take some time to focus on his womaniser of a brother.

Speak of the ugly ass devil, I spot him at the far end of the bar talking to short bald man, or rather the short bald man keeps talking to him and he's not listening, I follow his gaze only for it to trace to his wife.

The long full curly haired woman in a silver dress is too busy ranting on to Raquel.

Sometimes I feel like handing Nadia a billion euros anytime she plays the *I hate my husband* card.

It's satisfying to see my brother lose his shit to a woman he's tied to for the rest of the life.

When we we're kids, me, Antonio, Nico and Nadia always pulled hilarious pranks on Rocco and then he'll stop talking and playing with us, several times he tried turning Nadia against us. Complete fail, just made her a bigger ally of the crew

I look at him once again and I can't help but chuckle, the way the short man keeps on ranting to a gone man is just hilarious.

I didn't think I was that loud but I may have been wrong, because Rocco eyes lands on me.

I stare at him with the same lost questioning look, then his lips curves into an evil grin.

He stands up and walks into a hidden hall at the end of the room, out of instinct my eyes scan the room for Raquel and I don't see her anywhere. For God sake why doesn't she listen.
