I am Leo Silva, age 20, a college student and new in this area....
I don't know the rules, Don't know the systems, I don't know anything....
It all started at that dark evening,
It was getting dark and there was not a single person on the road, I was all alone surrounded by the silence, the silence made the atmosphere scary and cold, the only thing I knew that time was to reach home safely, as I was reaching my apartment I heard a gun shot, with fear in my mind I went to check, only to find a bleeding man who was heavily injured.
Without any hesitation I approached him, he was silent, no one was around so I decided to help him, I brought him in my apartment, clean his wounds and applied medicine and dress his wounds, who could be so cruel to leave him in such conditions..... I was hurt see him injured. I stayed by his side all night, but there was no sign of him waking up, there was nothing I can do. Finally the night fall ended. A new day a new beginning, I changed his bandages, dressed hus wounds again and left for my college.
I introduced myself and my day went well... I made some new friends, and I learnt that, This area is known as Mafia den, Mafia's mostly roam at night, like animals, I realized that the person in my house is a killer, and I saved him.
With all my courage I opened the door and I was relaxed, he's still sleeping, no worries until and unless he's awake, as usual I made my way towards the kitchen to cook for me, I remembered some rules which my new friends told me to follow
Rule no 1- don't go out after 7 pm and before 6 am
Rule no 2- if you want to do part time job then the only option u have is, you have to work under gangsters
Rule no 3- obey them or die
Rule no 4- if they ask for money, give it directly or else you will cut in pieces.
This rules are really weird...... If I want to work, I have to work under Mafia, never, I hate this, I decided to leave this area, even if it will be difficult for me to attend my college.
As I was Cooking, I was completely lost in my thoughts, my mind was playing tricks with me, I was lost, completely lost into the unknown, but suddenly, I felt someone's presence behind me, I paused and turned around to look at a figure who was leaning on the wall and silently watching me, I grabbed a knife and pointed at him, " you saved me, now you want to kill me" he said in a husky voice while approaching towards me, I swear if he was not a gangster, I would like to melt in his voice but no..... For now I want to save myself. I was trembling, he must have noticed it, but instead of doing anything to me he grabbed a spoon and, " Make it spicy, I don't like tangy flavour", at that time I wanted to kick his *ss, "I'm not your slave get that thing fixed in your mind" I said to him, instead of getting angry, he smiled 🙂 and left the kitchen, what the hell is with this guy, all I know was I am staying with a mafia under a same roof, I finished preparing the food, then I went in the living room, he was sleeping peacefully, I got my chance to change his bandages, just do it quickly and run away from him as far as I can, I started to remove his bandages but he opened his eyes, my heart skipped a beat, he closed his eyes again, for the first time, I was scared to death, I quickly removed his bandages, clean the wounds with wet cloth and dressed his wounds...... I serve the plates and started to eat, but I noticed that he was not eating anything, I looked at him with confused facial expression, "do you think I can use my hand to eat.... Feed me" feed you?... He's so bossy, 🙄 I rolled my eyes and sat beside him and started to feed him, as I was feeding, he was staring at me like I'm his prey, I hate this feeling, I was feeling insecure about it, why the hell is he staring at me like this, I looked away, I feed him while avoiding eye contact.... After finishing the meal he went to sleep...
I completed my task and went in my bedroom, fu*k where the hell he went, he's not in the room, the hell, is going on here, I searched everywhere in my apartment, but no sign of him.....
