"What are you waiting for?" He asked calmly, too calmly.
I was holding a damn gun to his head. "Come on shoot me!" For the very first time my hand began to tremble. Come on Val just pull the trigger. It's no different than the other times.
But it is different a little voice at the back of my head kept taunting me. Oh hell. Did I like him? Was that why I couldn't bring myself to put a bullet through his damn head? At the back of my mind I knew the answer was yes. Yes, Valentina Moretti actually learned to love, and at the worst time possible.

My Mafian Intern
"You're staring at him again," Valentina sighs. "Hm?" I responded, not catching on to what Valentina was inferring. She tugs on my arm and shakes her head, chuckling. "You were staring at Mateo." She takes a sip of her coffee, looking up at me. "I'm not," I reply, "I was just daydreaming in his direction, it's his fault for sitting there." "Then why was there that look on your face just now?" "What?" I turn to her and she raises an eyebrow, "What look, Val?" "You look a certain way when you see him," Val pauses, to turn towards Mateo who was laughing at some joke Diego made, "You look at him as if he's some sort of new high-tech gun." "And?" Valentina sips her coffee, grinning at me, "You love guns." Maliyah is a tough nut to crack. She was brought up for her shell to never crack, never to let anyone walk through the door that leads to her heart, which is why she vows to only fuck, never to open that door leading to a relationship. But Mateo has a way of doing things, he always manages to succeed in everything. When he finds that it might not be as easy to get into Maliyah's heart, he just broke down the door leading to it.

But I wanted it to be that way, I wanted to show how the lead character changes herself differently just to adapt to her surroundings, how she is good and at the same time, a bad person.Complete
