Two Broken Hearts

Chapter eleven

There are a lot of rules of mafia the main one is to not expose yourself to the world and always look after yourself and yourself only.

I woke up at around three in the morning with a pounding in my head. I was laying in my bed like I didn't pass out a few hours ago. I was exhausted and sad.

Matteo actually didn't care about me. He will just leave me in some strange country. I didn't have any family left anyway so I couldn't be with nobody. I just had him and I guess I just started to acknowledge that.

After some time I fell back asleep, not peacefully tho... There is nothing I could do to be peaceful.

"Come on Maria! Wake up!" Someone shouted. I grunted and opened my eyes.

"What?" I coldly looked at him. He sighed: "I'm not going to fight with you and I said to you to be ready at 6! It's 6:05! Get your lazy ass up and get dressed we're leaving!"

I rolled my eyes and glared at him. He met my look and glared right back.

"Don't challenge me flower, it won't go well!" I looked at him intensely for another 5 seconds and then I went to dress into something.

"Kel will come in with your clothes."

I flipped him off and he went away. I was really mad at him. Because one: he lied to me about his mafia and his life. Two: he is sending me away.

Kelsey knocked at the door and stumbled in the room chuckling.
"I can be so clumsy sometimes."

I smiled at her, she can be so happy yet she is living much similar life to mine. I admire her. I pretend I am strong and because of that she admires me like the rest. But really... I am pretending! She really is happy. I hope that's what she was always.

I'm glad she is with Marcus. Even though he is a little... Intense. Lucas is nicer to get along but Marcus is a story of his own....

"Well I brought you clothes so you will look good on your way to... Wherever you are heading." She chuckled nervously.

"Don't you know where am I going?" I asked her, begging with my eyes for her to tell me.

She opened her mouth but nothing came out.

After some time of silence she looked down at the floor and murmured a soft: "Sorry." I nodded my head.

I couldn't get mad at her. Not really. She is just following rules.

"Don't be mad Mia." No one ever called me that and I like the nickname. I smiled lightly at her: "It's fine Kel, I just... Ugh! I just really wish he told me things."

She shuffled nervously, not knowing what to say and I turned towards large window, looking out at the nice day outside.

"I just wish things were different. I don't mean just the stile of life we're leading, I mean everything. I thought that when we were kids there were no lies between us, he really was my knight in shining armor." I chuckled sadly.

"I know he didn't mean to hurt me... Or at least I think so. He lied to and manipulated me just like all the other men in my life and then he left me. That's the difference. All the other men stayed to torture me. But it's my fault. I was a little naive girl. Sometimes I wonder did he really loved me, the way I thought I loved him?"

Kel didn't answer. I sighed multiple times lost in my thoughts.

"I think I was just stupid to fall for him in this short amount of time... Again." My voice cracked at the end and I let a single tear fall down.

Kelsey didn't say anything yet again and I turned around only to be met with cold black eyes that seem to soften and for a moment I thought they glistened but that second was gone as soon as the thought came.
