Mafia's Forbidden Touch

Catherine:

“We’re sorry, but miss Moretti, if you don’t pay the bill any time soon, I’m afraid we can no longer offer our services” The nurse said, a sad look on her face.

My mother had been laying on the same bed for a few weeks, the treatments took all the money that was left.

I nod, looking back at the nurse, “Just make sure my mother is fine, I’ll handle the bills” I answered her, glancing at my mom’s thin, weak body through the window.

“And please, don't allow anyone in…” I added, my eyes suddenly staring at the nurse’s surprised face.

“Well, there was this man…He said he’s a friend. He even left flowers” My eyes widened, and I could feel my heart pounding in my chest.

I sighed, wiping the tear that’d been struggling to fall, still wandering aimlessly down the street, but suddenly a red lightning sign blinded my sight, capturing my attention right away.

I looked up and narrowed my eyes, as if that red sign suddenly wasn’t something you could just ignore and walk away from. Like it was the sign, the solution to all of my problems.

The sign said “For Gentlemen Only”

My eyes darted to his sharp, well- defined chin. For some reason,
