Can you tell me more about the mafia you deal with?"Nicole stuttered as she sat up, horrified by his statements.She truly didn't know why she was interested in knowing more about Raphael.Raphael ran his hands across his black raven locks, he then stood up and sat close to her.Nicole became puzzled and wondered why he came over to sit by her."You really want to know more gattina?" "That's Italian. Does he speak Italian?" Nicole wondered.Nicole nodded her head at him without turning to face him.

Raphael buried his face down wards with his hands resting on the table in front of him. He didn't know how long he had been thinking but his thoughts ran wild.
