Melting The Heart of A Gangster

Chapter 35 - The Song

Christopher's POV

I silently stood behind the door,watching her as she speedily ate the food I just bought for her at the K.F.C. Restaurant.

I sorta felt like she was my little sister,Nikari.

I just couldn't help treating her, making up for all the hurt I've brought to her.

I just couldn't bear torturing another infant.

That's just not my job.

After she was finished and had licked her fingers clean and belched,she began singing a melody:

~¤Friendship is a special love.

And as well as I know, a true friend like Jake is hard to find.

So when I do find one,I'll hang on tight and never let go like I did!

It also doesn't hurt to let Jake know every now and then just how much he means to me.

Oh how I wish that could be.¤~

"Jake? Who's Jake?"I thought to myself.

She rested her hands at her neck then I realised she had on a silver necklace with a small gem on it,and she continued singing:

~¤The last time I saw you, you said you hated life and wanted out since you may have thought no one cared for you.

Well I was there,waiting for you to give in and be that old, helping friend like you used to be.

We used to sit by the fireplace where you would slowly massage my shoulders while telling jokes and wondrous stories.

Jake oh Jake,why did you have to go with the bad guys?

If only you hadn't ran off to the gang,leaving me to cry

...feeling all alone...feeling so empty.¤~

After she said that, it instantly hit me.

I knew this guy named Jake Rodriguez in the gang.

He was twenty-four years of age, had short black hair,tiny facial hair and grey eyes.

The strange thing was he was also my cousin.

I was still not sure if it was him but after she had finished her hym, I walked into the room.

"Watcha doin?"I smiled taking a small glance at the chain around her neck.

"No-thing...I thought you said you were going to see me tomorrow,"she replied rather disturbed.

"Uhm well, I felt like checking up on you,"I explained.

"Why?"She asked seriously.

"Because I don't want...any guy to hurt you,"I said.

"I can fight.I'm not some baby,"she said sadly looking down at her wound.

"Believe me.There are men here who are even more stronger than me and tougher and I can manage you,"I explained.

She never answered only payed attention to her cut.

I walked over to the dresser and sat on it murmuring, "If you had been a nice girl, I probably could have given you what you want, Georgia."

"I want nothing here! How would you know I want something?"She stormed.

"Because I know the needs and wants, especially of a woman,"I said.

"Well I'm not. I'm a child,"she raged even more.

"Okay... You're a little girl then and I know that all little girls like pretty little things such as someone to make them hot chocolate tea,watch over them at nights, maybe a back rub and most of all the money,"I smirked.

She shook her head abruptly and shouted, "No!" "Georgia you can't tell me that's not what you want, "I said calmly.

"I don't want it, "she said lowly. "Then what do you want?...Whatever you want,you name it, it's yours, "I begged.

I wanted her to admit that she wanted to see the Jake guy because I wasn't sure if Rodriguez was him and I want her to be happy when she meets him,since she misses him so much.

"Leave!"She stormed.

"Make me, "I smiled faintishly.

"F* you,"she said giving me a middle finger then went under the covers, turning her back towards me.

I sat there for two minutes without saying a word then got off my ass and sighed, "Okee Dokee.See you tomorrow then."

I took up the plate and cup, that she ate and drank from earlier,from the floor.
