One Night Only

Lillie

I haven’t been able to communicate with Dante for almost three weeks. There is no response at all, no sign of him or his mastodons, nor does this Ivan respond. Have you forgotten me already? Or maybe I never meant anything to him, just sex, until he got what he wanted and disappeared. Perhaps he realized that the time had already come to walk away after getting what he wanted. Not responding makes me believe in that. And since I haven’t received a single message since that night, all that makes me realize the reality. I thought he really had feelings for me, at least that he liked me, but even that didn’t seem to have happened. I was delusional. I do not know how I could believe in that man, trust him knowing that he is a mafioso and murderer. If my mother knew my stupidity and to have given me to such a guy, she would be completely disappointed in me.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

I had to go to see her today, but I told her that it would happen after I got out of college. As I have not been feeling very well, I have decided to skip the last classes to go to visit her earlier than agreed and then return home early and be able to rest. Lately I have been feeling very tired, wanting to sleep more than usual and also a little dizzy, but nothing alarming. I don’t stay up late anymore, because I stopped working at the club. I had to quit because Dante forbade Julie not to hire me again. Now there is also the other reason why I should not return: I will go with my family to Germany.

In relation to what is happening with Dante I made this decision, which I have thought about a lot these days since I found out about the trip. I was thinking not to leave and stay with him while I was still studying here, but now I’ve changed my mind. I’ll leave and I won’t come back.

I leave the university to go to the hospital, but in that I visualize the figure of my friend Mika. That stunning brunette how can I not recognize her? He approaches with a smile of happiness.

“What are you doing here?” I ask him when he gets to me. He greets me with a kiss on the cheek and a big hug.

“After so long I thought you’d be glad to see me” he answers when he turns away from me to see me.

“Of course I do, but it seems strange to me that you come to this place of rich kids, as you used to tell me.

Mika is not a big fan of this site. He always said that he hated coming to see me here because of the spoiled and rich guys, since the first time he came he had a bad experience with a classmate. When her boyfriend was left watching her amazed by her beauty, the girl made a scene of jealousy and everything went overboard. Many insulted her, showing support for the girlfriend, and I was the only one who defended my friend. After that almost everyone stopped talking to me, which I don’t even care about.

“Yes, but this occasion deserves it, since I have some great news to tell you” she comments cheerfully.

I pucker my lips. I don’t understand his emotion. What is that so great that you have to tell me?

“Well? What is that great news you have to tell me?

Her eyes are shining with joy. She grabs my hands and moves restlessly.

“Ivan proposed that I go to live with him in Italy. “He says everything running and fast while letting out a squeal of emotion when he says Italy.

I am impressed with what he says. I wasn’t expecting this, well, not so soon. I’m happy for her, that she does well in what she loves the most as long as she is reciprocated, not like me. I waited for Dante’s calls and nothing. In fact, his friend is not responding either. I have to know if they are avoiding only me or both.

“How? When did that happen? “I’m trying to get something out of him.

“Almost a month or so ago, only he had to leave for Italy on an emergency… I don’t know what business, that he didn’t tell me either, but that he will come back for me as soon as he vacates his duties.

That means he’s also missing. I don’t want to doubt and nor do I want to generate distrust in my friend, but I have to tell her what I fear about it.

“And you haven’t heard from him since then?” i’m just curious. She shakes her head. What I was afraid of”. Mika, I think he lied to you. I didn’t want to tell you what I suspect, but learning about this makes me think I was right about it.

“What are you talking about? I don’t understand you” she says confused.

“That he has made fun of you and will not return as he had told you.

“Where the hell are you getting that from?” she inquires exasperated.

“I know because I haven’t heard from Dante for more than three weeks. When I talked to him the last time, he told me that he would return the next day to Italy to return in two days here, and since then I have not heard anything from him.

“And what does that have to do with Ivan?” question something exalted.

“That Dante left me his number along with Ivan’s so that I could communicate either with his friend if he did not respond. “She looks at me with an incredulous face and crosses her arms”. And that’s what I did, but he hasn’t responded either. That’s why my doubts that they have left us as village girls, rowdy and excited.

“Don’t be silly, Lillie. They are mafiosi, what did you expect from them? They are not fairy tale princes.

“But at least a message saying that they are fine. Doesn’t it worry you?

“Yes, but I know he’s too busy to take care of my whims. They are men of danger, they live among problems every day. Get off the cloud and don’t be so naive.

I don’t like his tone.

“Why are you telling me that?” I inquire with sadness. I don’t know why he’s on the defensive.

“I just don’t know what you expect from the Devil. He’s a fucking mafioso. For God’s sake, Lillie, open that mind and realize. He more than anyone is very difficult to tie, if that’s what you want to do. I shake my head, I didn’t want to do that. Then stop being naive and grow up at once.

“Like you?

“Maybe. I’ve already fallen in front of my mafia danger and I’m not going to let him doubt him much less because of what you just said. You must understand that they have a very different life from that of a normal man, that they are not silly college kids like these “the university points out-. He won’t always have contact with you. Don’t be a tantrum.

“I’m not throwing tantrums, I just told you my doubts, but apparently you’re not in the mood to listen to my concerns anymore. You didn’t even like them before.

“I remind you that the one who didn’t like them was you. I only told you what I knew about the Devil, since you are a good and correct girl in your home” she says with contempt and irritation.

Why is he reacting like this? Did my comment bother you that much?
