Mafia's Forbidden Touch のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Catherine:I knocked on the door, hoping to find her at her apartment.My friend Anne was the only hope for me to not sleep in the street. Since my purse was stolen by Nico…I didn’t have any money, my phone, or my apartment’s keys. “Come on in, you must be freezing out” She held my hand, the warmth coming from hers made me step inside immediately, closing the door shut behind us.After I finished the last slice of pizza, Anne came back from the kitchen, holding two mugs of hot chocolate. I smiled, but looked down as soon as I felt my eyes water, remembering how it felt to be around people, people who actually care about you.“So, what’s going on with you, it’s been three days since we talked, and you’ve never been as silent since your mother got sick…” She bit her tongue, regretting the last sentence.“I didn’t mean to remind you” She sighed then handed me my mug.I shook my head, then placed the mug on the coffee table in front me.“So, how is it going with you? Are

Nico:I grabbed her tiny wrist, and pulled her closer to me.She looked down at my chin, avoiding my gaze. “So you do remember that night” I moved even closer to her.Her messy hair and the way her soft skin felt between my fingers…My eyes suddenly betrayed me, stealing a glance at her full lips.I frowned when I noticed her eyes closing as she buried her nose deep in my chest. Well, I guess I left quite an effect on her that night.Suddenly, I started to feel her weight leaning heavier against me, “What are you…” My words trailed when her whole body began to drift, almost collapsing to the floor. But within seconds, she was in my arms, and I was holding her tightly.A few seconds ago she was arguing with me, and then she just fainted.From her pale face, it was obvious she wasn’t okay.I knocked on the door. As soon as I did, her friend opened it and stepped out, as if she was already behind the door, waiting for my knock.“Oh my…what happened?”“I don’t know” I answered,

Catherine:I had no idea why it never crossed my mind to ask the owner to give me the key to my apartment, since I lost mine.I walked inside the building, and headed directly toward Bob’s apartment. After I knocked, it took him only several seconds to open up.“Hey, Bob,” I smiled. It was kind of awkward to come ask for the keys while I still haven’t paid my six months’ rent in advance.“I’m glad you came, I was on my way to your apartment” I froze, staring down for a few seconds, cursing myself for knocking on his door.“Listen, Bob…” I smiled before staring up at him, but he didn’t listen, instead he had an annoyed look on his face.“Then I assume you’re not here to pay your rent?” I shook my head.“I came here because I lost my key…” I smiled sheepishly, embarrassed as hell.“Got it” He said, nodding his head.“I’ll get it, just wait a sec” He then disappeared, leaving the door open.I continued to play nervously with my fingers as I waited for him.After a few minutes or so, he s

Nico:Catherine and I were both sitting inside my car, both silent.It was the awkward kind of silence, where every thought was trying to come out, but both of them fought it back, and stayed quiet.That was until Catherine shot the question…“Why do you want to keep the baby?” I almost stopped the car, what kind of a question was that?I’m a lot of things that I’m proud of, but getting rid of a baby? Especially if that baby was mine…I shot her a serious look before taking a deep breath then stared back at the road. I couldn’t believe she was trying to keep this a secret from me.I couldn’t believe she’d want to get rid of it! So, I had to ask.“Why do you want to get rid of it?” I didn’t even bother to answer her question.She rolled her eyes, “That’s not an answer”I scoffed, “And yours is?”I could see the annoyed look on her face deepen, but it kind of made me smirk.“You do know I can make another appointment, right?” Her eyes were fixed on her lap. I squinted, noticing she was

Catherine:“And you said no!” Anne’s hands were covering her mouth, surprised and shocked she was as I was telling her about Enzo.I continued to glare at her, but she didn’t care, she refused to take her hands off her mouth for a few other moments.It kind of made me doubt my decision, saying no to Enzo? He was all I kept talking about for the past two years! But this year? I turned him down not only once, but twice!“I thought we liked Enzo?” She seemed confused, but I took a deep breath, then stared away. She realized then that she wasn’t only confused, but also wrong. “I can’t live like that, Anne. I can't spend the rest of my life running away from my father’s men! And now that I’m pregnant…” I placed my hand on my stomach, my eyes watering all of a sudden.Being pregnant was consuming all my emotions. For the past few days I cried for too many times that I lost counting.Anne was already beside me, patting on my back, “I’m here, I’ll always be here…You don’t need to be with a
