ADRIANO

ADRIANO LOOKED AROUND the park in distaste. "There is nowhere for me to park," he muttered. He had never been to this side of the city before.

"You'll find one," Avery said, getting out. "But before then, I and Iris will go ahead. Meet us later." She took Iris's hand, and before Adriano could argue, they walked away.

He sat back and watched them, noticing a slight bounce in Iris's walk. She was excited for this.

After almost 10 minutes of driving around slowly, he finally found a place where he paid to park his car before heading to look for Avery and Iris.

Children were playing around in the park, some people were walking their dogs, and the whole place was lively.

He quickly found Avery and Iris on a bench. Iris had ice cream all around her mouth. He was shocked, but pleased.

"I never knew she liked ice cream," he muttered as he walked by Avery and used a napkin to wipe Iris' mouth.

"She is a child," Avery answered. "All children love ice cream." Her tongue flicked out at th

    AVERYIT HAS BEEN two days since Clarance abducted Iris, and things were starting to die down. Adriano informed the police that it was just a misunderstanding, and he did not press charges. Iris seemed to be doing better, too. The event did not affect her as much as we thought it would. She was already a happy and secure child, so she easily bounced back.As I sat in my office, lazing about, I gazed the the ring on my finger. It sparkled and reflected light in different angles. There was no doubt that it was very expensive. It would be pure gold and diamonds, I was sure. I held my hand up to take a clearer look at it."Avery Quinn Mancini," I muttered. It doesn't sound that bad. It definitely had a good ring to it. I chuckled and ransacked my bag to bring out my notepad, but then I saw a small black card. I took it out and saw the name Jean Carter written in stylish cursive letters. I frowned and then remembered the man who had approached me a few weeks ago, begging me to attend to hi

    CLARANCE WAS FILLED with many conflicting emotions. She was mad, sad and confused all at once as Adriano walked away from the club. As she sat down on the chair, she was vaguely aware that Adriano was gone. In every sense of the word, he was gone. She did not have any effect on him anymore as she once did. He did not even fear her and the lawsuit waiting for him anymore.It was like since he got closer to the doctor, he had gotten immune to Clarance's wiles and charms."Pour me a shot!" Clarance yelled at the bartender.She downed them. Shots after shots. And then, in a drunken state, she reached for her phone and dialed Laura Hills, who turned out to be her only friend and the only person she could share the hate for Avery with."Hellooo," her voice was slurred."You're getting drunk without me?" Laura asked.Clarance chuckled and gave Laura the address of the bar. In a few minutes, Laura arrived. She joined Clarance at the table and they ordered more drinks. "So, what's the occasio

    ADRIANOFEELING WEIRDLY SATISFIED at the meeting he has with Enzo, Adriano went up to his chambers. He rubbed his neck in exhaustion as he pushed open the door. Avery was on the bed, but she was not sleeping. She was seating up, reading a book while she waited for him.As soon as he saw her, he remembered something very important."Did you dismiss Enzo?" She asked.He held up a finger. "I'll be back." He turned and hurried downstairs to the garage. He went to the car he had used to pick Iris. That was the car he drove when he bought the ring. He took the beautiful ring case from the glove box of the car. He opened it and admired as it glinted beautifully in the dim light of the garage.Putting the box in his pocket, he went back to his room. Avery had a surprised look on her face at the way he exited the room."What was that all about?" She asked when he walked in again.Smiling softly, he walked up to her side of the bed. As he went down on one knee, he brought out the box and opened

    ADRIANO SEEING HIS DAUGHTER scared and shaky on the bed like that stirred something in Adriano. It made him furious that she was in that state, and all because of Clarance. We had gotten used to Iris, being a lively and happy child, that he forgot how she used to be before they met Avery.As he kissed her forehead, his heart ached. He brushed a bit of hair from her forehead. She looked so peaceful as she slept.He sighed and took Avery's hand as they walked out. She squeezed his hand slightly to let him know that she was with him."I am going to make that bitch pay with every drop of her blood," he growled as soon as they were out of Iris's room.Avery was silent for a while then she said, "Can you not do that?"Adriano frowned, looking at her in surprise. "Do what?""Make her pay with every drop of her blood," Avery said. "Don't press charges, inform the police that it was all a misunderstanding."Adriano released her hand. "Where are all these coming from?" He asked. "Why? You know

    AVERYTHE MORE I listened to Enzo talk, the more I realized that he was not as we thought he was. At first glance, he would look like a street thug because of his muscular body and stern appearance, but I found out that he was an intelligent and well-spoken young man from the streets of Sicily. He had a grandmother still back at home, with his younger sister and brother. And even though he didn't work much, he still managed to send them some money every month for their upkeep."So what were you doing tonight where we found you?" I asked, pouring another drink for myself to refill my glass."I had an interview with the owners of one of the clubs to be a bouncer," he replied. "And when I saw Mr Mancini at first, my first instinct was to protect the bar, maybe it would increase my chances of getting the job.""But then you stepped back and even ignored your job interview," I said as I remembered the events. "Why?"He rubbed his hands on his neck uneasily. "I recognized him. Adriano Manci

    AVERYI KEPT MY hands firmly around Iris's as we made our way out of the dilapidated bar. The whole area was dark and dim. Between me and Iris, I did not know who was more afraid, but I put on a bold font, held her hand firmly, and walked through the dark street."This way, ma'am," the hefty man who had approached us earlier said. He was suddenly very respectful, but I was still wary of him and his intentions.We got to the car and I unlocked it, making sure Iris was well strapped in the back seat before I turned around. The man was waiting, unsure of what to do.I cleared my throat, observing his body language. It was one of the perks of being a therapist, I often knew someone's mind just from how they stood or moved."I can drive you and the young lady home," he said."What is your name?" I asked."Enzo," he replied.There was no hesitation, and he kept a steady eye contact with me."Enzo," I repeated and he nodded. "I can drive you home while you comfort the young miss," he gestur
