"Anastasia, Can you take care of  Table 5?" my best friend Linda asked me. "Yea sure, no problem." I replied, and went to take their orders. I work in a small café in Italy. 

My life is actually quiet boring. Well, I go to university in Italy. I study business, from a young age, I have dreamed of having my own business and its crazy knowing that I have only a few steps for achieving that dream! 

Another thing is that I have guards 24x7 around me but, they are mostly in background and I sometimes feel that they are not even there. Well, the reason is that.. I am not an ordinary person at all, In fact I am the only daughter of the Leader of the English Mafia, Henry Williams. Yes, My dad's the leader. He as the leader has indeed a lot of enemies and therefore, I have guards. 

I was homeschooled until the age of 14. After that I somehow convinced my dad to let me go to school like the rest of the kids. My dad is my role model for everything, he is brave, strong and confident. He has been really protective of me and my brother since our mother, his wife died. 

I lost my mother when I was 8 years old during an attack. But my dad and my elder brother both have been there for me after the incident. My brother is Elijah Williams, the future heir of the English Mafia.  He is sweet and caring for only one person which is me, he is said to be ruthless to others. He loves me a lot like I love him. 

You maybe thinking why the hell I am working in a café, well we are rich but I love working and can't just sit at home and study everyday, so I work and my dad did have a problem with it at first but I convinced him saying that I will leave the job once I get my business degree. 

I live alone in Italy over here with my flat mate Linda, we both share a house. Home is actually in New York. Do I miss home? Hell Yes! But doesn't mean I don't like Italy, Its a beautiful place, I haven't got the time to discover each and every place as I had only been here for about 6 months but I had visited the famous ones.

 I miss my family very much and that's why am going to New York today for about 3 weeks! Yes, Finally and I can't wait to meet them. My flight is tonight at midnight.

My shift ended at 6 and it was perfect for me to pack and dress. I quickly gave Linda a hug and said bye to her as I won't be seeing her for 3 weeks, she was supposed to accompany me to the airport but her shift time was extended. I exited the café and went straight to my apartment.

 I packed for about 3 hours and my flight was in another 3 hours, I quickly finished it and went to my closet to change into something comfortable to wear. I found a white cotton crop top and paired it with a white denim skirt and a jacket, I grabbed wedges as heels will be soo uncomfortable. I put my hair into ponytail, grabbed my bag and locked the door and left.


"New York, Here I come back!" I breathed out

"New York, Here I come back!" I breathed out.

Little did I know it was my biggest mistake of all times!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was a 13 hour long flight and it was damn exhausting, I landed about 20 mins ago and I am currently waiting for James who is my brother's best friend to come and pick me up as Elijah was busy with Mafia stuff. After a few mins, his face came into view and I waved at him and quickly ran to him and gave a hug.

"James, How are you?" I asked. "I am fine Ana, but damn you look absolutely fine." he said causing me to blush. 

"Where is Elijah?" I asked. "He is at home, waiting for you." he replied. 

"How is everything going on? You know the mafia?" I asked. "It's alright, just facing a little difficulty with the Italian Mafia." He sighed. 

The rest of the car ride was silent and soon we were in front of my house, Uhhh How much I have missed my home!

When James parked the car, I literally jumped out of it running to the door and opening it and I ran to the hall. I saw Elijah speaking to someone on his phone facing his back towards me and after a few seconds he hung up, I took this as an opportunity and hugged him tightly from behind. At first he was stiff, but when he saw my face he instantly relaxed.

"Ana, How are you sissy?" he asked. "I am fine Eli, and I missed you a lot!" I replied still hugging him.

"I missed you too Ana. How is University going on?" he asked again. "Its going on well, just 1 more year and I can start up my own business." I replied confidently.

"Where is Dad?" I asked. "Here princess." my dad replied from the entrance of the house. "Dad!" I exclaimed and went to hug him. "How have you been Dad? I hope Elijah is taking care of you well." I asked. "I am fine princess, he is taking care of me, don't worry. Go and freshen up, Dinner will be served soon" he said, I nodded and went up to my room.

Opening the door of my room, it was still the same, just like how I left. I quickly washed my face, changed into comfy clothes and headed down to dinner thinking about how I will spend my holiday with them.
