I didn't know what to do.. Adriano the sweet, gentle guy... Just shoot a innocent man... In front of me. Please God this couldn't been happening..
Really.. No I wasn't falling for Adriano.. Well maybe.. But not after this.. Was he really standing there... Pointing his gun at me?! This.. I didn't appreciate this at all! No one points guns toward Catharina Calarodo!..
I don't know why.. I don't know how but I ran toward Adriano and slapped him in the face "I hate you!" I yelled. Adriano's expression went from angry to sad and he lowered his gun. I ran inside and upstairs before running into the first room I saw and locked the door.
I looked around and realized... I was.. In Adriano's room... Ugh Just great I couldn't believe Adriano... Killed this person.. Why? Really why? I sighted before crying. Why was I crying? Because yes I have to admit I loved him.. Before he shoot this guy. I heard footsteps on the staircase and knew it was Adriano.
"PRINCESS OPEN THIS DOOR NOW" he yelled angrily. "NEVER YOU DIRTY ASSHOLE!" I yelled back. I hated him now. I heard a sigh coming from Adriano. "Catharina ... Please open this door... We need to talk" I took a deep breath.
"Well I am listening but I don't want to see your f*****g dirty face ever again!" I answered. Adriano chuckled sadly. "Alright.. Well.. 13 years ago.. A man lived happily with his daughter... But what his little daughter didn't know was that he... Was the boss of a mafia... What brought him and his daughter in danger. One day.. This man got shot.. His last wish was that his daughter would be safe so they put her in a orphanage far away from the mafia world. But now she has returned for a reason.. "
I was sitting there on the bed..staring at the walls.. Starting to remember everything now.. My dads face the orphanage.... Everything..him falling down.. Right before my eyes..being shot I saw my father dying again. I couldn't help it.. I started sobbing. "Please... Princess open. " I opened the door and Adriano walked in.
"Princess.. I am so sorry" I ran toward him and hugged him tightly, sobbing in his chest. "Shhh.. Princess its okay" god I missed my dad and I couldn't believe I almost forgot him.
"Princess.. I.. " but he stopped when someone knocked on the door. "Boss... " Giano started. Adriano sighted "I am.. Busy" he said and I felt Giano looking at me.
"She... Knows?" Adriano nodded. "Sorry... Catharina .. Ma'am" Adriano looked at me "princess.. I am the one who rules the gang rn.. But in fact the throne is yours.. " I gasped.. No.. No I. Couldn't rule a gang.. No no this couldn't be my life... I don't want it to be!
"Adriano.. I can't" I whispered. Giano and Adriano both looked at me before looking at each other. "P-princess.. You don't have a choice.. " I stared at both of them. "Catharina ... Your the only real heir" Giano said. No.. I wanted a normal life.. A normal job , a lovely husband and some sweet kids.
"No" I said before pushing Adriano away and running downstairs. "princess come back!" Adriano yelled but I didn't listen and ran away. I ran outside and cried. My father.. A donn.. Me a.. Future mafia queen.. No that is just impossible.
That's not how I want my life to be.. Its not how my life is supposed to be. I ran away and took a room in the closest hotel. I was sobbing... Again.
Thinking about my dad.. And about Adriano...
