CHAPTER 22
Leonardo's pov(dad of klara)
"cosa vuoi dire che non riesci a trovarla?" Two hours. Two fckn hours and klara is still not at home.
Anthony and mario didn't even realised that klara had heard the business of mafia.
One day it was bound to happen but not in this way, where she accidentally hears it.
I know it must be a lot to take in such information after all she is just sixteen.
(Translation- what do you mean you can't find her.)
"Sir she tricked her two guards, jim informed that klara was bored and was roaming so she heard" Mike right hand man of Lorenzo explained.
Since Klara's disappearance everyone started fuming with anger and sadness.
"Anthony mario can't you be more careful" amelia said
"Mom we didn't even knew" Anthony tried to explain.
"che cazzo stavano facendo Jim e Tim? avrebbero dovuto guardarla ogni volta" lorenzo now finally said anything, well more like shouted. He has been awfully quite since she went away.
(Translation-What the fuck jim and tim were doing? They were supposed to watch her everytime.)
Before jim and tim could reply , Mr oreo's bark was heard , everyone turned their head towards door
"I am back" klara yelled.
"What the fck klara"
"Where did you go"
"It could be so dangerous"
"Why didn't you take your guards"
Before anyone could say anything more i shouted "stop everyone" twins and Grayson stopped bombarding her with questions.
"Klara I know you heard everything come on we have to talk" Amelia said politely, she was trying very hard to not cry .
"Okay mom" what changed her mind so quickly? I wonder
Klara's pov
"Okay mom" I replied.
I love them, if they hid something it must be something for my benefit, i know they will provide a reason.
"Yes klara we are in mafia, Lorenzo is the current Don and dad used to be the don too but he gave the business to Lorenzo" Mario explained.
"Okay, but why you hid it from me" my expression changed into sad one
"You are the youngest klara, we were protecting you, why do you think Anthony started teaching you boxing out of nowhere, why twins and gray used to keep an eye on you school? There are many reasons , we did it because you are our weakness, and if enemies come to know about you something bad can happen"
Dad explained, it all makes sense. How much i love my family.
"But i am seen at public gatherings, then at my birthday there were paparazzi" but why? People already know about me .
"I know k bear , but we don't know what happens in mafia next. Maybe some enemies can think that you are special or like other children. We don't know klara"
Mother explained. Mom knew too? WHAT THE HELL
Of course she knows, if she didn't knew why she will marry your dad
But its mafia
Shut up klara
You are my subconscious
"Earth to klara" aiden snapped his fingers in front of my face.
"Dad you guys don't sell children or something like that right?" I shivered at the thought of selling
"No no klara we totally oppose that" dad chuckled
"Is there someone i know and they are in mafia too?" I wondered
"The Kings family, they are number one mafia in the whole world then we are at second place"
That bloody fool of Azrael he is in mafia , what can i expect from the dumbwick
But the thing is that I don't hate him.
I started laughing, everyone were looking at me like i have grown two heads.
"What now klara" andrew smacked his forehead
They are tired of me being so weirdo
"Nothing i was just thinking" i shrugged
"Why are you so calm?" Grayson asked
In a fact i am thinking the same!
"Is it because i already know what mafia is?"
"What the hell"
"How?"
"When"
Again the chaos.
I am done. Done with the abuse both mentally and physically. I am so feed up with my so called parents. They don't deserve the title of parents.
After my regular beatings both John and elena went out leaving me in this bloody hell.
I have to go and get some fresh air.
I cleaned myself, did some self treatment, which barely had anything and got out.
I started walking towards nowhere, after sometimes when I finally put myself together i saw myself at dark allyway.
No no i have to get out. But faith has different plans because two very creepy looking man came towards me
"Woah woah , what a pretty girl like you is doing her alone" the one with lot of tattoos said. Honestly he was so scary . And smelled of alcohol
"Please leave me" i trembled
"Now if we let you go, we will miss our fun" the other said. They are bad very bad. My eleven year old can't stand them. I started crying . Both the man started coming towards me
"N-no go a-away"
"P-please i w-will go"
I was crying mess, before both the man could come towards me they both were pinned to the wall and someone held their throat.
"No need to panic child just wait" a little less scary dude said. He too looked dangerous but is nice.
I quickly backed up
"What are you doing with little girl? Never treat them like shit" the man who was less dangerous said.
"Now get lost if you don't want yourself to get killed" both my attackers hurriedly went off.
I clapped
"Thank you Mr..?"
"Ivan Sokolov and you"
"Klara Smith" i smiled
"What are you doing here klara it could be so dangerous" Mr ivan came towards me and started checking for any injuries.
"My parents are bad. They beat me so i am here" i lowered my head
"What the hell! Why!" Mr ivan yelled.
I shrugged
"I am sorry for yelling, its okay no one will hurt you more now come hug me" He stretched his arms and i hugged him but flinched
"You are hurt. Come i will help you" he smiled . I don't know why but i felt safe with him. I just met him but he saved me and is polite so i went
"Why are you helping me Mr"
"Honestly i too don't know . I live in russia and do bad work but i feel like you are very sweet" he pinched my cheeks
"Bad work and russia" i questioned
"When you will get older you will understand , its like guns, some powder things and etc and yes i live in russia" he smiled
"Oh mafia?" I asked dumbfoundly.
Mr ivan stopped the car and looked at me
"How do you know?" He raised his eyebrows
"Oh i read books and i love those 'guns, powdery thing' i know i am underage and all but i don't have any choice because i am always bored." I explained
"You are something else" he muttered under his breath
We went to hospital and got my injuries healed. He then gave me some money and clothes then dropped me at my home , thank god those two abuser's weren't at home. He told me that we will meet again and he will take me to russia with him.
But we never met again after our first encounter.
Flashback over>
i then recited the whole five years old memory except Mr ivans name, saying I don't remember his name.
Why i didn't told them the name ? What if he is enemy?
What if he was an imposter?
We then had dinner and i went to sleep.
