I didn't know if it was the effect of the alcoholic that I had taken earlier but my knees started feeling weak. The desire to let loose suddenly became stronger.As I walked near the main bar, Marco started following me.“Ma'am don't you think it's best you go home?” He asked, in a small tone. In fact it was more like a suggestion. I knew he was just trying to avoid his boss' wrath and I was trying to have some fun.I shrugged, “no, I don't wanna go home.” And there was nothing wrong about that if you ask me. A girl just gotta have some fun.Giving up, he raised his hands in mock surrender and disappeared. I loved that.Getting to the bar, I ordered for a shot of alcohol and another. I knew I should have stopped at some point but I kept going because it really feel relaxing to my soul andbI felt myself reaching a sweet high that I hadn't reached in a long time.Soon, Tomasso waltzed to the bar, his form blurry as his doe eyes widened like that of a doll. It was funny sight and I could

Marco glanced at me at the backseat before responding.I nodded, giving him a go ahead.“I'd appreciate if you respond to me in honesty.” The corp urged calmly but firmly.“Yes we are.” I said, calmly, trying to sweep my tension under the carpet. “Any problem?”“Actually no.” He replied. “But you have to come with us.” He pointed towards the corps van.“What?!” Marco exclaimed, his voice rising with my tension. “Have we been apprehended?”“Not in the slightest.” The cop guy smiled. “Me Stefano Carlo have ordered this for your safety.”I puffed a relieved a exhaled breath as a tired smile made its way to my lips.“What about our car?” Marco asked, his voice shaky. I knew the mention of his boss' name was scaring him because he had defaulted a rule. I wasn't going to allow Stefano punish him for my own mistake, I had assured him countless times but I guess he still didn't believe.“We'll take care of it.” He answered and gave a curt nod. “This has to done quickly so please could you kin

I honestly think I didn't hear him correctly.My brain struggled to process the information about Tomasso mother's death.I shook my head, pressing my hands together, trying to still myself.Before I could control myself, tears started streaming down my cheeks. I gazed at my husband, hoping he'd somehow tell me he was just being sarcastic. But with the sad expression on his face, I knew this will never be a joke and I'd have to accept her death.“How, how did this happen?” I asked, wiping my eyes with my bare hands.Stefano handed me support and I cleaned my eyes. He regarded me with a calm look, “I don't know honestly, but I'm certain Robin killed her knowing that will ruin Tomasso and probably bend him to do what they want.”“Ridiculous.” I spat out, sniffing my nose.“That's why he has been arrested.” Stefano chuckled darkly.As much as that piece of information was supposed to make me feel better, it didn't do much knowing that she would never come back to life. I sighed. “You a

“What?!” I let out a sharp screamStefano tore his gaze from his gaze from the doctor and stared at me, holding my hands and trying to put me in place.“Please calm down.” He said calmly, cleaning the the tears that flowed from my eyes.“Doctor isn't there anything we could do to help him regain his memory faster?” He asked.The doctor shook his head. “Unfortunately no, we can only administer drugs to him but we can't ultimately decide the efficiency of the drug as it differs from person to person.”“I don't understand what you're talking about? Explain in simple terms. If you know you'll keep confusing us, we better take him somewhere else.” I ranted, losing my Patience.”“You need to calm down, madam.” He urged with that practised smile I wished I could wipe off his features. I didn't know what was amusing him.“All I'm saying is that we can only give drugs but I can give any time frame with which he'll regain. It differs from person to person and the situation involved. Two people

“I can't bear this loss.” He announced as he held his chest and stared at me.“Who was she to you?” I dropped the question I had had on my mind the whole time. I knew they had an affair but was she his official girlfriend? Side piece? Did they have a child together that late died or something?I had so many questions but I wasn't sure if they had answers that would be given to me today.But first I had to try.“She was my uhm..” he started then sighed.“Your what?” I probed. “She didn't get to finish what she was saying in my dreams. She said you were supposed to tell me everything.” “She did say that in a dream?” He asked, probably trying to wrap his head around all of it. “Yes she did. She showed up in my dreams after she died which was really strange.”“We had a conversation just before the bar opening. We spoke about whether to tell you or him but we weren't sure yet.”My heart started beating fast. “Who is him?” I didn't know why for some weird reasons, my heart spiked up at th
