In Love With A Gangster

STREET RUCKUS

“No one is interested in hearing what you did at work and I am going to have fun” she said rudely and slammed the door.

Wow what a sis. Sometimes I feel lonely. She has just graduated from university and is leaving off my hard-earning money. I will soon starve her to look for a job. For the main time I need some beauty sleep so I can wake up early and beautifully I am hungry. I dashed into the kitchen and found out Annie had eaten the leftovers. I can’t simply go out to look for food I should have eaten at the restaurant. I take some noodles out of my fridge and cook them.

I enter my room after eating. I jump on my bed without taking off my heels which slip out of my feet as I land on the bed, I take my sleeping mask and wear it and put on some cool music. What a day I hope to see him again. I muttered to myself and buried my head on the pillow.

The next day, I woke up as early as 6:00 am. I bathed, cook and Annie comes back with a guy looking all drunk and smelly. I take her from the guys' arms and put her on her bed to sleep and the guy leaves.

“What a silly girl, I told her the day she gets pregnant she should pack out of my house”, I muttered to myself, and left some of the food I made beside Annie’s bed.

I wore and causal office clothes and grabbed my bag, I waited at the bus stop for a bus. I got on the bus and on the road the bus came to a halt. I wonder what’s the matter. I saw a lot of people gathered all staring at someone.

The driver got down from the bus to see what was causing the traffic jam. I used the opportunity to see for myself. I and some other passengers went down; from my view, I could see a gang beating up a man in the middle of the road.

“This demon and his gang have started again" a man declared.

Isn’t he the guy I met at our restaurant yesterday? Why are they beating up that poor man? I watched for a second and got into their middle.

I stand at akimbo

“Stop hitting him” I said and the gang leader, smirked.

“Get the f**k out of here”, he drags me by the hair and tosses me to the floor .

I got up

“I can’t just stand here seeing you maltreating a fellow citizen like this”, I protested, trying to interfere.

Another gang member gave me a massive slap across the cheek. I was literally seeing stars.

They dragged the man along with them. People just stare at us. What’s wrong with people nowadays? I muttered

I managed to get out of the shock of being slapped. I reach into my bag and bring out my pepper spray.

And ran towards them, taking the man away. I sprayed it across their faces and they all screamed and the man ran without looking back. I hopped onto the bus and it zoomed off.

I arrived at work early. As usual, I entered my office looking at my clothes to see if they had any stain.

“I pray not to see those gangs again, I muttered to myself and opened my laptop and started posting on our social media handles.

Author's POV

Lion and his gang struggle to open their eyes. They all jump into the pool, washing their eyes with water continuously.

“Boss, who was that lady that had the guts to spoil our plan?” Steve inquired.

“I don’t know but I will deal with her, she will make up for the 30-million-dollar deal that we lost. What will I tell the boss? I am so furious if I lay my hands on that girl she will be sorry she messed with me” Lion declared, gnashing his teeth.

Lion got out of the pool all drenched and walked into his luxurious big master bedroom and lay on the bed.

Later in the evening

Lion and his gang get up to go have some dinner at a nearby restaurant. They enter the restaurant.

"I remember I saw that girl here the other day." Lion muttered to himself and used his eyes to scan the restaurant.

Red's boss dragged her into his office as soon as she arrived.

She stood before him bowing her head.

"What does he want from me?" She mumbled.

“You are asking yourself what I want from you,” he muttered.

“What! How do you know what’s on my mind?" She inquired

“I saw the disgraceful act of yours yesterday at my restaurant. Give me a reason why I shouldn’t fire you” he asked.

She went down on her knees holding his leg firmly.

“Sir, please don’t fire me, it won’t happen again. I really need this job” he smirked.

“You need this job and you are misbehaving”, just then Ella walked in.

“Sorry sir, the customers Red answered yesterday are demanding her. I think they like her service.”

“Go and attend to them and behave yourself” he stated in a serious tone.

“I rather not,” she protested.

“Isn’t that what you wanted the other day”. Ella chuckled.

“You better go before I fire you wholeheartedly” he replied.

Red slowly walked out of his office with the menu and eyed the gang.

"I am so dead." She whispered to herself.

“How may I help you, Sir?" She asked, bowing slightly.

“Go and get take-out for us. We don’t want to eat here”, he stated, and, pointed at the list of food they would like to order on the menu.

Red walked to the kitchen.

"That was easy. They didn’t recognize me. I am so happy." She smiled widely at the chef and

he handed her the food.

She walked to their table and gave them the food. A gang hit her hard on the head and her vision became blurry as she fell into Lion's arms.

Lion carried her in my arms, ignoring her boss who kept pleading to let her go.

“I will call the police now” he muttered.

“It seems like you don’t know we run this area. All the cops are afraid of us”, Lion snarled, and one of the gang members kicked Red's boss's phone out of his hand and it crashed on the floor.

“Sir, let them go. He is the demon of town." Ella added.

"She is the most sensitive one among you," Lion remarked, and went with the lady in his arms.
