Mattia's POV
"Alejandro stop sniffing cocaine in front of me" - I told him as he was literally showering in white powder. He's gonna die from this cocaine addiction. I mean i enjoy it too but he doesn't know limits.
" well, Mattia... I mean boss, you have alcohol addiction so you can't be the one pointing your finger towards me. We all have our weak sides."
I laughed at his words, knowing he's right. My phone vibrated in my pocket and I put the whiskey bottle on the table to see who was calling me. My heart stopped when I saw her number on my phone screen. Why could she possibly be calling me at this time? I answered it with deep "yes" and waited to hear her smooth voice.
" can we talk?" - that's all she said. I knew she wouldn't call me if it wasn't something serious so I didn't wait any second and told her :
"Meet me in front of your local cafe."
I hung up the phone and looked at Alejandro who was already staring at me with " who was that " face.
"Nana called me ."
" what ? She called you ? What does she want?"
" I have no clue "
I smiled and he sniffed cocaine one more time from the table.
I went to the bathroom and changed into something fancy. I took the hair gel and styled my messy hair. Should I do middle part? Or should I let it be messy and natural? I looked in the mirror while having these thoughts and stopped for a second, realizing what kind of stupid shit I was thinking about right now. Middle part Mattia ? Really?
I shook my head and searched for my car keys.
"don't do anything stupid " Alejandro yelled before I'd leave the hotel room.
"What could I possibly do ? Kill her?" I smiled and shut the door behind my back.

I didn't get out of the car when I went to the cafe. I just sat there, checking if she already came or not. Impatience was taking over me and I was nervously tapping my fingers on the wheel.
It's crazy how I let her go alive. All jokes aside she must be dead by now for owning the information about my gang. But I didn't because .... I couldn't kill her for the second time. I know that they're both whole different people but I wouldn't be able to pull the trigger for the second time.
Then I saw her brown hair which was glowing under the building lights. She took off her jacket and sat down at one of the tables. She looked scared and nervous, just like I did. I don't know why was i nervous, I just felt that way and didn't wanna think about the reasons.
I finally got out of the car and went inside the cafe. I approached her table and sat in front of her without saying anything. She looked up and down at me and looked away.
" why did you call me? "
" nothing serious I was just -"
" - then why did you call me ?!" - I didn't let her finish the sentence. She better explain why she decided to see my face again since I'm tryna forget about her.
" who's Amalia ?"
I froze on the place. How does she know about it, who told her. I know that she's been spending too much time with Lea and my people but I didn't expect her to know that.
" who told you that "
" doesn't matter" - she said and I felt how my blood boiled in veins. How dare she's this confident in front of me.
"what the fuck do you wanna know ?"
Did that sound too mean?
"Nothing, I just wanted to know about the girl who looked like my twin"
She stared down at her fingers.
"That's it ? You wanted to talk about it ?"
" yes " - she said and I felt disappointed somewhere deep in my heart.
I lit up the cigarette and leaned back on the chair, telling her the full story. She just sat there, not saying anything or moving. The fact that she was learning my face features made me nervous as fuck the whole time. I hated my self for feeling that way.
"So that's why you were interested in me ? "
I looked at her, wondering why was she asking.
"listen, I'm not gonna start apologizing you because of what happened. Your life has been a little... well a lot crazy lately. I suggest you to disappear from Lea's life and forget everything you saw or heard."
She still didn't say anything, just kept playing with her long fingers.
"And I don't feel fucking sorry for shooting your pussy ass boyfriend. You do realize that he was never good enough for you right?"
She got nervous when I mentioned him. Does he have this much effect on her? Or did she... wait did they get back together? I knew it wasn't my business but I still asked :
"Did he finally accept your problematic ass and got back with you ?" - I said ironically and she raised left eyebrow.
"no we aren't together, you can be happy about it. Anyways do you have the picture of her ? "
She quickly changed the subject which was weird but I didn't pay attention.
I took out wallet and grabbed the little picture of her which I was taking with me everywhere.
I handed her and she closely studied Amalias photo.
" wow it's... insane "
She gave it back and I put it right back in the wallet.
"You loved her didn't you?"
I gasped. Didn't know what to answer.
"Maybe, maybe I didn't. I'm still not familiar with this feeling. And will never be."
"Why do you think that way? "
" because I'm not just an average boy"
" I get it but I feel like you're not that emotionless deep down. "
I didn't understand the point of her words.
"I don't have to prove anything to you "
" don't worry, you already did when you came drunk to my house. I saw the real you"
I laughed:
"And what exactly did you you see".
"That you're hurt and how you hate your father because he's cruel".
Fuck. Why does she have to talk about this stuff.
"What the fuck is your point Nana"- I said calmly.
"I wanna know more about you " - I gasped and felt how my hands got sweaty.
She stood up and left without any other word. I didn't sleep that night at all.

Earlier :

Nana's POV
"So when was the last time did you meet him? "
Mr. Simons was giving me and Jacob lots of questions with other police officer which I've never seen before.
"Last night. "
He nodded and sat on the table.
"Listen, there are zero evidence against them. I'm the FBI agent for 30 years already and have never seen gang functioning without any mistakes. I honestly don't know from where to start investigation. I keep this between four of us on purpose."
He looked over at the other FBI agent and continued talking.
" you guys came, telling me that there's some Italian gang who just arrived in America and they continue their criminal life right?"
" exactly " Jacob answered.
" listen kids, I want to believe you but none of this people you're telling me about physically exist. You can't search them in any country's database. "
" That's because they don't have identity mr.Simons. Do you really think they're that dumb? "
"okay I understand, but still I don't want to involve whole FBI into this situation yet. I have to know if you guys are telling the truth in the first place. You know that this is not a joke right?"
" we absolutely know and have thought about consequences." Jacob said and looked over at me.
"Okay I'll be helping you. But I have a question. Why two young people are so interested in this case? If you guys are telling the truth and this gang really exists then you're practically risking your life. Why's that ?"
For the first time I thought about this. Why am I doing what I'm doing ? Because of Jacob? Because of love? I guess that's the truth but why's Jacob so interested ? What is his point?
"Sir they're representing danger for society."
That's not true. They never harm normal people.
"plus, they shot me in the arm"
"Okay I see, I see" Simons said and stood up.
" I have a plan and you should follow it. Since I don't want to let the whole FBI know about this I can't hire special agents to investigate more things about them. Nana are you ready to cooperate with us? "
I swallowed hard and Jacob hold my hand. God I don't want to do this. I wanna go to Lea and tell her everything before something bad happens. Why why why are you making me do this. Fuck, Jacob.
"what exactly am I supposed to do?" I asked.
" you have to get close to one of the bosses, I'll give you listening device and you have to make them talk. Simple."
"I think she can do that. Right babe?" Jacob smiled and I fake smiled too.
" yy...e..ss, I can do that "
Mattia was the first one who came up in my mind.
