The Don's Love & downfall... by Little Writter Marjolein (phonics readers .txt) 📗

Julia.

I open the door and there stands Massimo dressed in very sexy mouth watering outfit an unknowingly i press my legs together. 

"Good morning Julia, i came here to give you your letter, have a nice day and take care Julia!" He says after giving me the envelope and henturns around to go back to his car but than i grab his wrist and he turns back to me. 

"What is it Julia?" He ask me gently caressing my cheek with one hand and i lean in to his touch to feel him more while closing my eyes...

"Babygirl please....let me go back...don't make it harder for both of us than it already is!" He says while stepping away from me. 

He says one more time goodbye and he drives off leaving me behind outside looking at him untill he's gone, out of sight!.

Kate stands on my right while Tommy is on my left. 

"I know it's a difficult decision specialy with your background but he really truly loves you Julia, i hope you know that!....he showed it by trying to safe you that night he got stabbed, because he thought his enemy would hurt you so he went but ended up almost losing his life because he didn't want to give your adres to his attacker while he knew it but he didn't give him so to safe you because he already started loving you!! 

So please make the right decision and don't break his heart more than it already is!" He tells me and i nod silently.  

"I hear you, i know what you are saying but i need more time! I'm not like Kate here who is fast making desicions i just need time!!" I tell him.

"That's fine but have it in mind that by the end of this month you need to give him you answer, if it's a no than you don't even need to contact him anymore although it would be nice to do so out of respect but is not a must but if your answer is going to be a yes than you have to attend our annual Gala where Massimo will introduce his chosen Donna to the world!"

"You mean everyone will know that i am with him from that moment?" 

"Yeah but i mean the Mafia world not the rest of the world!" And i nod in understanding.

" I think you will find with his letter also the invitation to that gala! So take care and make the right choice "Me Donna" he says and walks to his car and drives off.

Some weeks later...

Kate has accepted Tommy as her boyfriend officially since a couple of days back and they are very happy!!!

As for me, I've read Massimo's letter over and over again! And put his gala invitation next to my bed as a reminder but i still haven't made my choice!! 

I fully understand now what i means to be the leading couple of the Mafia, my role would be as a Donna to take care of my house and family, that every is heakthy and  happy and well fed and i mingle and keep close contact with other Donna's and help settle matters if these should occur between other Donna's. 

So strickly what a wife and mother would do in life kind of, so it's better than what i had expected!!

So yeah that i know and understand now and to be honest is not bad at all but the thing I'm still kind of struggling is that he's mafia's Don, and that means trouble according to what people know from the outside and i don't know if i can handle the pressure of keeping it a secret, who i will become and how my people will react specially my parents, i think they will lock me up for life!! I think. 

My grades went a bit down due to all the emotional stress i went trough over the last couple of weeks but I'm trying my best to recover! My parents have been bugging me ever sinds that fatefull night at their place to come back and talk about the whole thing and to persuade me to accept the offer of Bob for marriage but i refused and i blocked their call since than and I asked to university security to inform me.if they would try to sneak in and see me! Because I'm sick and tired of their sick games!!

The date is coming closer and closer and i still haven't made up my mind yet! 

I talked a lot with Tommy and Jose who helped me a lot in answering my questions and explaining things to me that i didn't understand so now i have a compleet image......The only question what is left is do i love him enough to step into his dark unconventional world??

One of those nights i went to the club again but this time on my own....

I just wanted to feel free and alive again so i dressed up and took a taxi to the club.

When i arrive i go direct to the bar and to my suprise i find Sam behind it!

" Hey girl! Long time no see!, How are you doing?"

"Could be better! Please give me a couple of your strong shots please!" I tell him feeling miserable!.

He poors me the drinks and i take them one by one after eachother just to kill that numb feeling inside of me.

After a while i feel already a bit drunk and i slowly walk to the dancefloor and start like my life depends on it!.

After some time i suddenly feel a pair of strong arms around me and they remind me me of Massi so i close my eyes and press my body against his!

I feel his hands all over ame and i moan softly against his cheek. After some minutes i feel suddenly that I'm being lift up by the same strong hands so i hold on to them and wrap my hands around his neck for comfort as we walk out to god knows where because my mind is so blurred that i only notice the cold air on my skin.

But than i start to her shouting and gunshots and than someone takes me away from those strong arms so i try to fight back!.

"L...et...g...go....i want to.....st....stay with....massi....mo!" I yell drunk!.

But nobody is listening and before i know it i start to see black dots in front of my eyes and i slowly fall into a deep darkness.....
