Mafia’s Doctor

Chapter 11: The Decision

After extracting the bullet out of Marco and patching him up, the guys carried him to our room. Since when did it became our room. Scoffing at myself I continued washing the blood out of my hands at the kitchen sink. I was tired and exhausted. I couldn't wait just to go back to bed and sleep. Turning around I saw Rickey and Nickey leaning on the counter with worried expression on their faces. 

"How is Mari?" I asked as I dried my hands. Remembering how she was terrified and kept screaming at me to save him and cring , while mumbling to herself that she can't live without. 

"Leo is putting her to bed" Nickey said looking at me with concern. 

"Are you ok" I opened my mouth to speak , but nothing came out. Within a week my life was turned upside down. Got married to a mob boss, found out the russian mafia is after me. Truthfully I wasn't ok. I was terrified. 

"No" I mumbled slowly lowering my head letting tears fall. I heard a chair screech and arms wrap around me. Nickey tired to comfort me as I cried. Sniffing away I straighten up and looked him with a small smile on my face. 

"Thank you" I said. clearing my throat 

"what happened" I asked. Nicky sighed and took a sit, looking at me. 

"We were at strip club trying to cool off from earlier" Jealous took over me, but nonetheless i nodded for him to continue.  

"For a while it was calm not much was happening. we were drinking, talking." Nieky continued. 

"Then out of nowhere Russians were there, I don't know how they knew where we were, but they did. They said somethings that pissed Marco off" 

"what did they say " I asked 

"They told him that they would do everything and anything to take you away " somehow I had the feeling that he wasn't telling the whole truth. 

"what do you mean by everything and anything" Nickey looked unsure whether he should tell me or not. 

"what did the mean Nicky" I asked .

"They would use his sister to get you and that pissed him off" Nickey said looking worried 

"I know what you are thinking and don't even think about that , Marco knows what he is doing and he will take care of it" Nicky said frantically

"how do you expect me to not do anything" I said with worry 

"Mari's life is in danger he got shot because of me" I started hyperventilating

"I am putting everyone in danger by just being here" that's why Marco was pissed when we went shopping, because of the safety of his sister. Nicky stood and placed both of his hands on my shoulder.  

"Calm down, he knows what he is doing. If he knew he couldn't protect you he wouldn't have made the promise to your father" Nicky said reassuring me. 

"Just take a deep and relax, go to bed and sleep it off , you are tired we all are" Nicky said letting go of me. At some point during our talk Ricky was gone. 

Nodding at Nicky I said my good as I walked back to my room. 

Marco was in bed sleeping , not wanting to bother him. I grabbed a blanket and the pillow and move towards the couch. Closing my eyes, I thought of everything that has happened. I can't let anyone get hurt because of me. I won't forgive myself if something happens to Mari. 

And in that moment I made the decision that when the time comes I will give myself in.
