I was sitting in lounge overlooking the pond which was visible through the glass doors. I had been with these two for the past 3 days. I've been slacking my work, I was unable to attend billions of worth's meetings and not to mention my people going crazy as to where the hell am I. Today; when Axel and Nikolai will come back from work, I'll sort this thing out.
I kept on drinking my coffee which was handed to e by Rose. She is such a sweet girl. She had been with me from the start. Looking after me like my mother. I chuckled at this thought. I was running away, hiding from them and few others for the past 5 years almost; yet the fate decided to just through me in their hands again.
What if history repeats?
History always repeats itself, woman. Brain.
I was engrossed in my thoughts that I failed to notice men standing In front of me.
"MARY!!"
With a jerk; I looked towards the source and soon enough found their men looking at me. I was confused. What is going on?
"Yes?" I asked, putting my cup down and giving them my undivided attention.
"We were thinking if you would like to join us for lunch at Taco's?" Ivan said, scratching his head.
Let me tell you what, Mafia world is no walk in the garden. You, if got in it, cannot walk out. You pay. If you're lucky enough to have men like Nikolai and Axel, then maybe just then your life is not that bad. I know this because; well I had paid the price when I was not even wrong.
I looked intently at Ivan. Thinking what had happened 4 years ago is useless. I know this but I cannot keep myself from say it.
"Why, Ivan?" I looked down at the floor, feelings coming back with full force crushing me.
He took a deep breath, pulled out a chair and sat. He was handsome. Hell, every man here is handsome. If you're in Mafia, it is like some sort of requirement to be handsome. Everyone in this room, apart from me and Rose is killer.
Cold-blooded Murderers.
"I knew this was bound to come out." Ivan said, his voice laced with remorse. "Look, I know what I did back then, it cannot be corrected nor my actions can be justified. I was angry at me for doing that to you but trust me, this I never regretted it Mary."
"I trusted you, Ivan. I bloody trusted you. You said you won't let anyone hurt me, yet you . . You gave them me. You knew I was running away from all this mess, yet you handed me to them on a fucking golden platter. This was both hurting and . I don't know . Like I lost my trust on you." I said, looking at him in the eye.
I'm not that Mary anymore. I'm a woman of steel. I know what I'm, alone, capable to do. I've earned and learned the hard way. I tried to run away from all this, because frankly speaking, I paid a terrible price of this entire Mafia shit which was dumped in my life like I asked for it.
