Chapter 6
I drink the first bottle while looking at the pictures on my phone; it seems like it was just yesterday that we had so much fun. Planning how to get her pregnant, we study the positions that shoot the egg cell. Then now, another woman is swimming with his sperm cell.
The world is unfair to me; whoever the person who is my world is, he is the one who left me and was able to fool me. How, how has it been in our time? I gave everything since I am sure that he is the person I see who will knock and shake my life, but nothing happened. Gago is married to another woman. Don’t want to freeze his small cock
A bottle is overturned, and I feel like a fool for kicking it even though nothing has been spilled. This is stupid.
“You fool, you run out fast!” I throw it away, open a new bottle, and it’s like water when swallowed. I can’t taste the alcohol anymore; it’s like water. Maybe because of my cigarettes
“I swear, you will regret what you did.”
“But why, what, and where am I missing, Leto?” I whispered to the void: “The bitterness of wine does not taste good.” But what Leto did to me was bitter. Unique
“I still love you no matter what the news is, and you don’t want me anymore; why are you like that?” I’m good,” I said between sobs and drank the remaining alcohol in the bottle. I inhaled the smoke from the cigarette and drained the contents of the bottle.
I want more; it’s running out immediately. I’ve been drinking for a while now.
I’m about to throw the cigarette when my phone rings. It’s my younger sister, Lesaiah.
I answered it and waited for her response.
“Sister, where are you?” It’s one o’clock. “Are you going home?” She’s such a sweet girl, very considerate. And I don’t want him to see his sister wasted and brokenhearted. I don’t want him to be afraid of love. Because not everyone is really stupid.
“Sorry, baby, but sister won’t go home tonight.” Maybe tomorrow,” she sighed; it was sad that she might ask something of me or need me. Maybe tomorrow
“See you tomorrow, okay? My sister loves you,” I said.
“I love you too, sister, take care.” I end the call and get into the car. I’m going home to the condo and getting drunk so that tomorrow it’s like everything is gone.
I start opening all the compartments of my car as well as my bag, but I cannot find the key to my condo unit. I want to cry. Lord, is it true? Don’t you love me? I’m very unlucky, one after another.
I try to calm down so I can drive home and rest because my stomach has turned upside down. I started puking at the window of my car.
I hate this madness, damn it!
It’s my third time coming home drunk and crawling around the house; well, I don’t want to disturb people, but why is it that I still have the key to my condo with as much as I can leave behind?
“I fucking hate you, Le-ack!” You fell on the Bermuda grass in front of the main door. I’ve thrown out everything I’ve eaten, but I’m still vomiting.
“God, I swear to god. I will not drink more tequila, and I will not mix it with vodka!” My stomach turned upside down; I vomited semen from Leto, but that was a long time ago. I’m amazed. I called all the saints and gods to get me up until I recovered, and finally, I grabbed the doorknob.
I will reduce the wages of the helpers; they are not there when I need support.
After I opened the door, I fell and hit my forehead on the floor. Really stupid, Thana! You are one of a kind in the whole world, awarded with golden stupidity and bad luck.
“Really, oh gosh.” I groaned because of irritation. Why is there no condo key in my car?
“FUCK!” I didn’t notice that Xyan was there, holding a glass of water, showing his bench body that could be attributed to Alden Richards when he didn’t even know the word diet.
“What happened to you?” It squatted to get level with me.
“Swimming, see this. It’s freestyle,” I promised angrily, knowing that when I fell, I would be asked what happened to you. Once this is my brother, I feel like I missed the moon.
Xyan ignored it. Xyan helps me sit on the sofa, he’s so sweet and handy when he knows that his help is needed, and I am sure that he is my baby brother.
“I’ll just grab some water.” I immediately opened Xyan’s hand to stop him from taking my water.
“Why water? Do I look haggard as-ack!” and I cannot hold back my puke, I’m going to throw up my intestines now, holy gracious!
He caresses my back and when I stopped vomiting, he immediately held a glass.
I looked at him and said thanks, such a sweet baby boy of mine.
“Thanks, tell mom to reduce the wages of the servants. They are all slacking, it’s early!” I pout and sip the water. Warm water feels good on the stomach, it’s refreshing.
“Ahm. It’s 2 AM. Maids do sleep too, Sister.” I frowned at him and my grumpy brother facepalmed, the fuck? 2 AM?!
“Okay fine, I’ll go up and rest” I stood up but was out of balance and my hip hit the edge of the table, this is bull shit!
I’m about to shout because of the pain of Xyan covering my mouth
“Shhh. Don’t shout. Just don’t.” It was said calmly to me and I nodded like a child. He picked me up like paper and ran to the second floor.
I wanna cry out loud because of the pain. When you look at me oh.
He opened the door of my room, and the door of my bathroom then opened the shower, Xyan was catching his breath while lying in front of me and I was getting wet from the splash of the shower
“I’ll just leave you here for a while. Just call me if you need something.”
I nod like a lost puppy and pout “Okay brother,” I mock him and smirk, sometimes I wonder who is the oldest among us.
I watch him walk out and close the door.
I start removing what I wear and feel the coldness of the water, it’s annoying to think that I have nothing to go back to.
I’m too gorgeous to abandon and then leave me unreasonably angry, what is he? Always angry? Now he wants to end the engagement. Of course, he still has the strength to do that. It’s good to be trampled by a crocodile, I get the shampoo and soap. I want to go to the US but I don’t have the courage, I don’t know what will be my next move.
I rinse all the soap on my body and brush my teeth, I open the door of my walk-in closet and wear my night ware.
Xyan is still standing there, holding a bottle of Brandy and a glass. Shit, I’m thirsty.
“Thanks for this.” I grabbed it and smiled, but it takes five seconds before the alcohol disappears from me.
“I’m planning to drink this since I cannot sleep.” I raised an eyebrow at him and then pushed him out.
“Thank you, go to sleep. I have work tomorrow.” I said and I closed the door. I remembered something so I opened the door and took my wallet with me, got my spare credit card, and handed it to Xyan.
“Treat yourself, thanks again.” I give a quick kiss to his cheeks before going back to the room, I will bribe him. Maybe later I will report to mom. It’s hard, even with Leto.
I threw myself on the bed and my phone lit up, it was a mail from Hestia. I didn’t check the mail. But there is a text immediately following.
It’s like she wants to meet me and have a date, just now she didn’t want to talk to me and now she has a meeting.
“The org?”
Chapter 7
“Ola, your most beautiful cousin is here. No other than Thana” I smile at Brother Mage and show my white and milky legs.
“Stop showing your skin.” “What’s a BOLD star?” I chuckle and place the black, double-brewed coffee that he likes.
“The old-fashioned of the bold star brother, the porn star is new.” I wasn’t done yet when I teased him by squeezing my cheek and placing his forehead against my forehead.
“Porn star your ass; I won’t allow any of you to show your body over that social media platform or any social media platforms.” I slapped his hand, and I couldn’t find Yuki in my brother Mage’s office.
“Kj. Don’t want it,” I leaned back, then removed the shades and put on glasses. I remembered that he needed me today to review the proposals from other branches and our alliance companies.
“How’s Leto?” I smirked and put down the papers. I don’t like to talk about him. I’m not ready to face what I’m scared of.
“Brother, it’s good; your receptionist is ugly; you can change her.” It ruins the day. That adds to your stress, brother, pinch my nose and make a face.
“You’re lazy,” I shrug my shoulders and bite the bottom of the ballpen.
“Since birth, brother, let’s finish this. I want to go home, Leto, and I still have to talk,” I lied. I haven’t seen his ass since that day I argued with him.
“There’s nothing we haven’t talked about yet, Thana.” I act like I didn’t hear him; I can’t bring Leto to the topic yet. It hurts too much. When he gets home, I hope he’ll come back to me, but it seems to be vaguer than a fish since Zoe and Xyan give me something that makes me more insane. Those kids are really special. Being an investigator is overpowering. I can’t blame my baby brother; he loves his sister very much.
“Anyway, did you like Yuki’s makeover?” I raised my eyebrows, and then my brother sneered at me as if he couldn’t believe what I was doing. “I love dressing someone up and giving them a sex life.”
“Could you please stop taking drugs if you are taking drugs?” Thana, my brother is kind, but I have a headache with you. “You will make me old soon.” I looked at him with disbelief. I’m the one who will grow up with him.
“You’ve been old for a long time, brother; don’t assume you’re young. Then I’ll stop hurting your head when you have a sex life with Yuk-!” My brother hugged me and covered my mouth. The door opened, and Yuki was there with coffee and looking fine. My brother’s thoughts, which I know very well, are many.
I licked my brother Mage’s palm, and he screamed. Yuki spilled the coffee due to the shock and loudness of his scream.
“Athanasia, you’re a fool!” He went to the bathroom in his office to wash his hands. Every corner of my body can smell the fragrance; I’m just not sure if it’s a habit.
I wink at her, and her cheeks turn red. I walked over to Yuki and gave her a condom.
“Use this condom, and remember that a Del Russo man has a big dick,” her face went red, and she shyly reached for the condom. Brother Mage just came out and saw me handing the condom to his secretary.
“Athanasia! You Yuki. Go back to your table outside first. I’ll just leave some papers for Thana.” I dragged myself away from his secretary and she cornered me in a corner.
“You’re crazy.”
“Why, I just want to give you a sex life, brother. I know you’ve been dry for twenty-nine years. Road to thirty years now,” his face went red, and he looked at me, annoyed. My hair will be a mess!
“You know my head hurts; I can’t even find a wife because of what you’re doing.” I chuckled and took out the wine from my bag and sat in the living room set in his office and then hit the floor, one by one, with the proposals before I passed them to brother Mage for the finalization of projects and others.
I remember before, some women flirted with my brother Mage, but I know that money is all they want, so when my brother went on a date, I suddenly appeared and pretended to be his girlfriend. The worst is that I act like a pregnant woman, so there was gossip and news that my brother had a child. Mom and dad scolded me, so I was grounded then.
“I’ll choose; the one you dated is ugly. Look at Yuki; she looks nice and virgin. I like her for you. Listen to me, and I’m your cousin,” he shook his head and stood next to me, and I handed over the signed papers.
“You’re getting worse day by day. Do you not have a brain disease?” I fell into the glass, poured wine again, and tied my hair. My brows met and I rolled my eyes.
“I always visit my doctor, brother, you. And my doctor said that I am too pretty to have a disease.” Yuki came in and brought another paper, put it on my side, and left in a hurry.
“I’ll leave, brother.” I put my legs on my brother’s thigh, and it’s hard to remove the strap of my pumps because it’s annoying. I can’t sit properly.
“I can’t believe this problem with our other cousins.” I frowned and changed my other legs to remove the obstacle.
“Why are you going to trouble Jacob? That’s a good kid; Treyton and Louis are the ones we should watch out for. Those kids,” I said, and drank the remaining alcohol in the glass.
“Jacob held a wedding last month.” I threw out the wine and then wondered more, “What the heck?” Jacob’s child is still young! Why?
“Did Jane get pregnant?” I asked, then my brother looked down and took out the folder. I read it and tore it. Tearing it and trying to calm myself, I removed the stopper of the rum I was carrying and opened it.
“Fuck, what’s going to happen to them?” I get my bag and my heels. My brother shouts and calls my name. I look at him.
“You’re going out on your feet, and where are you going?” he asked, and I pointed to the papers that I just signed.
“I’m going out; the bar needs me. Then the other papers, please go to my condo okay, you have my keys. I need to go, bye!” I ran to the elevator, and many people were looking at me.
They say I’m too beautiful and I’m aware of it.
Chapter 8
I almost threw the bra I was wearing when I took it off and spun it around in the air while grinding on the dance floor. People are looking at me like I am fucking insane, but why? I am hyped up with the music.
I saw Radence upstairs, in the VIP room, who winked at me. I show my middle finger and stick my tongue out. I just shook my head and then I screamed, especially when they sprinkled water while people on the dance floor got wet.
My hips went wilder when Shakira’s Hips Don’t Lie played. With the remix of Boyfriend by Arianna Grande.
I close my eyes and dance. Someone touched my waist, and when I opened my eyes, it was Christ Nielson’s face that almost kissed me, and didn’t want to let go of my waist.
“Athanasia, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you.” I immediately pulled away and avoided him; he was a good friend of mine. Del Russo is connected to the Mafia Organization since my father is a good friend of Avenson.
Christ Nielson is the firstborn and heir of La Avignon Mafia, which owns the Underground City on the Lake Side, and I am very familiar with it since it’s my responsibility as a firstborn. We all have the proper training for ourselves.
“Christ,” I claimed, and I quickly dodged; he’s insane. He wants me badly. I know that I am a goddamn goddess from the heavens, but it’s hard to chase and hide from the Mafia boss.
“Come on, my marriage proposal is this available. Always available when it comes to my baby boo,” I almost puked as I pulled away and looked away.
“You’re drunk, I need to go,” and Barbara came closer, pushed her older brother away from me, and winked at me. I was going to the restroom when I saw a woman.
She looks familiar, like Radence’s colleague or friend; that’s a silly kid.
“Hey, Miss are you okay?” I called her attention; I was surprised, and it’s like Radence’s fiancée or girlfriend; I can’t tell. I’m a bit tipsy too; I finished the alcohol when I was going to the bar, and there was still rum in brother Mage’s office.
“I need Rad.” She said and closed her eyes.” I have a mini panic since I don’t know how to take care of a drunk, I’m so drunk I can’t take care of myself, or other people.
“Okay, I’ll call my cousin. It’s Radence Del Russo, right?” I asked, and she nodded weakly. This child is pitiful. I dialed Radence’s number and got no answer.
“I’m Athanasia Del Russo, by the way.” When I introduce myself and Rad doesn’t answer.
“Please call Radence.” I sigh and decide to call him and rush to VIP.
“Okay, okay. Just wait here. He’s probably upstairs.” I left her there and went up to the VIP area. The guard stopped me, but the bouncer came upstairs and no one stopped me. I opened the doors one by one until I saw Rad. Drinking with his friends
“Radence Del Russo, come down. The woman who looks Korean is looking for you,” I said, and his face went pale. He just passed me, and I was left with his friends who were still looking at me. I sat where Rad has been sitting lately and swallowed its cheers.
“I will be here until Rad is back.” I said and enjoying every shot, until I didn’t know how many shots I drink.
I didn’t notice the time, and the owner of the bar informed us that they were closing. It’s 6 AM, and I’m fucking dead. I hate my brother Mage. The paper that I need to sign, Oh my gosh! I can not walk properly. I don’t know how I got out and got to my car; I felt like I was going to throw up.
“Damn,” I groaned when a warm hand touched my back; I couldn’t see him. But he’s wearing a gym outfit. He handed me coffee and a towel before jogging away from me. I got dressed and got into my car. I use the warm towel and drink the warm espresso. Wow, just wow.
I always order a warm espresso, especially when I come from a night out and have no rest. I smile and see the initials on the towel. It’s EJ.
I smirk and drive to my condo. I still need to arrange and sign the papers. I’m going to hate you, mom, if they find out that I’m behaving like this; they’ll know what Leto said to me, and I can’t allow it.
I will face them in a crash, and I swear to God, they are angry with me, and they will be held accountable. I will not rest until I beat Leto.
And yes, I will catch my fiance, who has an itchy stomach, so the American scratched his raw skin. I can’t oppress them. I need to be strong.
