Roman's POV

It's been a month since I've been seeing Mira. We have been taking it really slow. She's so innocent and I don't want to push her to do anything she's uncomfortable doing.

I've been working a lot lately, but I get to see her for lunch and every weekend we go on a date. I feel like I know her more and have gotten attached. I worry about her when she's not by my side, so I have eyes on her most of the time and my men report back to me.

I was typing in my computer until I get a call.

"Mr Graziano there is a Ms.Carolina on the other line."

She annoys me every chance she gets. I used to use her for just sex, but she lost it when I cut ties with her, which was 2 months ago.

I just found out that she was working for the Russo's, then Mira fired her. I'm sure she's calling about her.

"Put her through."

"Hey Roman, miss me yet baby?

"I told you to stop calling. Why can't you let it go?"

"Because I love you baby. When I found out you were dating Mira, my heart broke."

"It's none of your business, next time you call me I'll see to it myself that you take your last breaths."

There was silence on the phone and I heard a faint cry.

"We'll be together again..soon."

She hung up and I pinched the bridge of my nose. Why are woman so psycho sometimes?

Mira's POV

My mother sent me to run errands for her since the staff was off already. She made a list of things she wanted me to buy.

I put on some black joggers and a light green baggy sweatshirt. The driver was waiting for me outside, so I quickly made my way downstairs.

I walked around inside of the grocery store gathering all the items in the list. My mother mostly wrote down ingredients for a cake I think.

Once I was finished I payed and helped the driver load the stuff in the trunk. From the corner of my eye I saw an icecream place.

I asked the driver to wait for me while I ordered something. I ordered a banana split and a iced coffee.

I took the coffee to Franco, our driver and came back to sit outside of the icecream place. They had small tables outside. I enjoyed my icecream when a tall man sits across from me at my table.

"Hey Mira, fate has brought us together once again."

"Roberto? What are you doing here?"

"I was taking a walk when I saw you from a distance. I need someone to talk to."

He kind of looked embarrassed to ask me whatever was on his mind.

"Go on."

"There's this woman. I like her, but I think she likes someone else. I want her to be with me, but I don't know how to approach her. She's easy to talk to when she's around."

"Well next time you see her you should confess your feelings. And after you do if the moment is right lean in and steal a kiss." I replyed taking a bite of the banana.

"You're right."

I didn't expect him to lean in closer to me. He took me by surprise.

"You're the one I'm talking about Mira."
