ALMOST AN HOUR AGO**
“Sorry,,, excuse me” Dew whispered.
“Yes, how may I help you?” Ariana asked with a small smile, after she had turned to him.
“Did you see a little kid run pass you?” He asked.
“Lttle kid?” She asked back, and looked around.
She looked at him and shook her head.
“No…I actually didn’t. What’s the gender?” She asked, worriedly.
“A little boy of about 4 years. He’s my only son” Dew sniffed, looking around.
Ariana sighed and stood up, looking around.
“Where last did you see him?”
“The hospital car lot” He answered.
“Have you searched there yet?” Ariana asked.
“Huh…Not completely”
“Hurry. Lets go search for him. There’s no time” Ariana said, and ran out.
“Wait,,,” Dew said, quickly.
“You don’t need to stress yourself. Don’t bother, okay?”
“Nope. Its fine. I’m not comfortable right now and finding your son can ease me. What’s his name??” She asked.
“Huh?” He muttered.
“Uhmm…His name? What’s your son’s name? I need to call him if we start the search”
“Oh…Huh..his name is Gilberto” He smirked. written by sommy pearl f.
“Huh? Gilberto? Okay then” She nodded.
“Let’s go” She added, and ran out.
RHODA’S APARTMENT**
Rhoda curled herself up, crying her eyes out, with muffled sobs.
Her pencil nose was already bright red, signifying that she has been crying hard, for so long now.
She remembered the first time she met Malcolm. It was just like yesterday.
FLASHBACK**
MILAN, ITALY**
MAFIA’S PALACE**
Rhoda slowly walked to the huge sitting room. On her hands was a tray of herbal tea for Leo Da Cruz himself.
Since her life as her maidservant in the mafia palace, She had never served the Don, himself.
She swallowed hard continuously in nervousness when she got to the door.
She breathed out heavily and looked at herself. She was wearing a black and cream colored fluffy gown meant for the maidservants.
She wore black flat shoes to match, and her hair was tied to a pony tail.
“Do you need help there?” She heard a deep masculine voice.
With slow mo, she turned her head around to see a handsome man behind her.
Since there were lots of people in the huge palace, it wasn’t surprising to meet strange people.
It was the first time she was meeting him and it was the first meeting her, based on his view.
Malcolm held the door knob, from behind her and slowly opened the door.
“Who are you?” She didn’t know when she whispered that.
Malcolm lips let out a smile.
“It Malcolm Keepers”
She widened her eyes.
“Malcolm Keepers? I’ve heard a lot about you but haven’t seen you before. You’re the consigliere here, right?”
He nodded.
“I guess you’re a maid servant here”
She smiled and nodded.
“Well, I need to go in now”
“Wait” His voice trailed off.
Rhoda turned to him again and they exchanged deep stares.
“What’s your name?” He asked.
“Huh?” She blinked her eyes.
“Hmm… You know my name but I don’t”
Rhoda chuckled slightly.
“I’m Rhoda Marks”
“Rhoda. I guess we are even now” He smiled and she smiled back.
THAT SAME DAY**
EVENING**
Rhoda was walking fast cause she noticed someone was following her.
She was heading to her room. written by sommy pearl f.
“Who could be behind me?” She thought and stopped walking.
She looked around and bit her lip, then continued walking, more faster.
She entered somewhere and hid. Later on, she saw a figure walk in. The figure looked around, trying to search for her.
“Got you” She scoffed lowly and walked to the person from behind.
“Looking for me?” She tapped the back.
The figure turned to her and Malcolm got exposed.
“Mal…Malcolm?” She blinked her eyes, shockingly.
“What…what are you doing here??” She asked.
“Were you following me?” She asked, again.
Malcolm was about to reply when their eyes fell on Mafia’s sodiers matching towards them.
“Oh no” Rhoda muttered.
She was in trouble cause she didn’t keep the curfew. All maids servants, slaves and male servants should be inside their rooms as soon as it clocks 10pm.
Now, It was quarter past 10. If she got caught, she would work extra than usual and get locked in the dungeon for a night for breaking the rule.
Malcolm quickly grabbed her arm and pulled her away, before the mafia soldiers would see them.
….
Rhoda gulped and looked up.
Malcolm looked down at her, and she quickly looked down.
They were against a pillar, hiding from them.
“Do you wanna know why I followed you?” He whispered.
Rhoda slowly took her eyes up.
“Why?” She asked.
“I couldn’t get my eyes off you. I couldn’t control them either so they decided to follow you. Anytime, my eyes catches something attractive. It keeps wanting it and doesn’t want it away”
Rhoda smiled.
“Rhoda?” He called.
She only raised her brows.
“I think I’m in love with you. I fell in love with you at first sight” He confessed.
“Me too” Rhoda whispered.
“I think I’m also in love with you” She added.
He smiled at her, gulped, which shook his adam’s apple and moved closer to her. Rhoda stretched her neck, in readiness to seize his lips.
She wrapped her arms around his shoulders as soon as his lips touched hers.
They both closed their eyes as they kissed, in ardor.
They didn’t want to stop and it also seemed time had stopped on their behalf.
They kissed their lips, affectionally and flashed their mouth and tongues together.
Rhoda fell her lips away and the kiss ended just like that. Malcolm lips were still slightly opened and his eyes still closed.
He slowly shut his mouth and opened his eyes. Rhoda inhaled and looked at him.
“I need to go now. Its late” She muttered, and proceeded to leave.
“Wait…will I see you tomorrow?” He asked.
She smiled and nodded.
“Sure. We are gonna be seeing each other every day from now on,, since, I’m now in charge of making Leo Da Cruz herbal tea”
He smiled.
“I guess this is our first dating day”
She nodded.
“Bye” She waved.
He waved back and chuckled.
Rhoda quickly tiptoed into her room.
She was shocked when she saw the head of the mafia army standing, waiting for her.
Her other two roommates were looking back at her.
Rhoda swallowed hard and bowed down. She looked up at him.
“Sir Gilberto….” She muttered.
“Where are you coming from, past curfew. Miss Rose?” He asked.
“Its Rhoda… not Rose” She quickly said.
Gilberto grunted lowly.
“Where are you coming from?!” He barked.
She blinked her eyes fast and knelt down.
“I’m sorry. I-
“I saw the scenario both of you played. You and Malcolm” He cut in.
She widened her eyes.
“Both of you will be in huge trouble”
She quickly stood up and held his arms.
“Please…Forgive us. Both of us”
“Rhoda? Love isn’t prohibited here so you guys have the right to kiss eachother. Why ask me to forgive you both? For what, exactly??” Gilberto asked.
“Huh…Nothing. I-
“Anyways, Its a big crime to break a rule here. It prohibited for peeps like you to stay out past curfew and therefore, you need to pay the price”
“Huh…”
“You’ll stay for a whole night at the dungeon” He blurted.
“Okay then”
“Also, Malcolm will be ripped from his title by Leo Da Cruz”
“But…but why?? Didn’t you just say-
“Malcolm!! Malcolm helped you escape when he knew you broke a rule, right?”
“Its…It isn’t his fault. Leave him out of this” Rhoda warned
“I’m sorry but he has to be punished according to the mafia’s law” Gilberto said.
“Wait. Let me take his punishment, please…”
“Huh??” Gilberto laughed.
“Then,,, can you stay in the dungeon for a week?” He raised his brows.
“I’ll do so” She nodded.
“Anything for him…”
