Born A Gangster

Chapter 11

NYA

I watch as Teresa walks out from the isle pretending to be oblivious to the gunmen.

"Stop,put your hands where I can see them!" They yell like they're cops.

As they point their find at her ago jumps behind a rack and rolls behind a freezer.

I jump out And kick one in the back making him fall down.

I feel pain explode in my shoulder.I fall to my knees.

I look down to see a lot of blood.He barely missed my heart.

Zack tackles him and wrestles him for the gun.

I pull out my pistol and shoot the guy in the lower leg.

He lets go of the gun and grabs his leg in pain.

Zack backs up slowly getting to his feet.

I hear sirens and smile and say" put the gun down before they get here."

Zack does as I ask him.

There's blood flowing out of my shoulder.

I'm so lucky.It barely missed my heart.I could've died today.

The cops get here and start.questioning us while the others put the robbers in squad cars.Well one of them anyway.

I have to go to the hospital.Even though I tell them I'm fine.A detective goes with me.She tells me I need to give a statement and that black blah blah if I lie I'll be charged with a lot of stuff.

I roll my eyes and don't say anything to her.

MARCO

I get into my car and shove my keys in the ignition.

I just got a call from a detective saying I needed to pick up Nya from the police station.

I knew I should've gotten rid of her already.

First she's talking to my enemies most likely about me.Then she's getting herself arrested.

I'm going to hurt that kid.

You already have,a voice whispers to me.

More than you know,it says.

Maybe so. I think to myself

I stop when I get to the police station parking lot and sit.I remember the first time I got arrested.I smile remembering how the cops had tried to talk some since into me.It never worked though I knew the gangster life was for me.Some people bite off more than they can chew when they become gangsters.But not me,I knew exactly what I was getting myself into and I welcomed it and made it the base of my entire life.

Maybe Nya would do the same.Maybe she could be in my gang.Maybe I would adopt her.

Maybe,maybe,maybe.

Aw god what the hell am I gonna do.

I feel like something is missing I can't sleep I can't eat.I have this funny feeling in my stomach.My head hurts.

I sigh and get out of car.

I walk up to the front desk.

"I'm here to pick up Nya."I say to her.

"Are you Marco?"she asks me.

I nod.

She smiles at me and says"Right this way sir.I bet your proud of your daughter for what she did."

I follow her through a door."Why would I be proud of her."I ask confused.

"Well she did take down two robbers who have robbed twenty-seven stores and comitted several homicides."

"Oh." I all I can say.

RAGE

It feels like i've been here for hours.I've talked to several different people some nice some not so nice.I want to go home.Where is home though?With Marco?

I guess so.The thing is lateley Marco has this look in his eye when he looks at me.I can't place it.......but,i'm pretty sure he's gone crazy.He stays up at night stomping around his office.

He keeps muttering something is missing.I think he lost something.I quite personally think it's his mind he's lost.I smile at the thought of Marco the oh so serious gang leader acting like he belongs in the looney bin.I feel a pang in my heart though at the thought of him going crazy and not being able to be part of societey anymore becuase he would be a danger not only to his self but to the public.People would laugh at him and call him a retarded or something worse.

His sons who worship him would probably go crazy not to long after him.

I look upwhen I hear the door open.

"Marco!"I say getting up and runing to him.

He wraps his arms around me in a tight hug.I sigh in relief.I felt something only I remember feeling when I was a small child.

Loved.I felt loved.

He took me home and when we for there he asked me to sit down with him in th he kitchen.

"Talk." Is all he says.

I tell him what all happened from the moment we saw the robbers.He's mostly interested in what the cops asked me though.Which makes me angry.I haven't even told him I got shot.

" That's all? " he asks.

" Yeah" I say stiffly" and I got shot in the shoulder." I open my jacket and show him the bandages.Damn it hurts there.

His mouth forms an O.He reaches out and touches the red spot where the blood is starting to bleed through the bandage.

I flinch away in pain.

He traces from the wound to where my heart is.

"To close." He murmurs.

"Marco,can I ask you something?" I ask him.

"Uh.....yeah,sure." He says unsure.

"Do you hate me or have something against me.I mean it's confusing how you.....like act sometimes?"

MARCO

I look at her in shock.I never thought she could be so forward.

I don't hate her I know that.It feels like talking to her kept the pain at bay.My head felt light,my chest wasn't tight anymore.Maybe this is what's missing.

"No,I don't hate you.I don't .......I just,don't know." I say confused.

I put my head in my hands shaking it. I feel a hand on my shoulder.I look up at her.For the first time I look into her eyes closely.I see she had a faraway look in .Like she's here but she's not.I can probably bet I've had that same look in my eyes for a while .The stories this little girl could probably tell someone.

She smiles down at me.Her smile is the smile of a perfect little angel.

I couldn't imagine anyone trying to hurt her.Who could do something so brutal?

My phone rings.I don't recognize the number.It's past eight thirty.Who the hell is calling me.

I answer it." Hello? "

" Yes I was calling to speak with Marco? " a Womans voice says.

"I am he."

"Oh good,I was wondering if I could interview your daughter.Nya I believe is her name? "

"No,no interviews!" I say hanging up quickly.

" Interviews? Since when are you a celebrity?" Nya jokes tiredly rubbing her eyes.

"Not me you." I say leaning back in my chair.

"Great." She mutters getting up and trudging upstairs.

I smile.
