Someplace in Silicity
Boss your phone is ringing, it has rang for the 3rd time Mario said
Armando was in the shower doing his normal morning thing
Take the call, Armando said. Sir, it seems important
I said answer it! He said in a domineering tone
Okay
Armando came out of the shower wearing a robe and went to the rooftop of his building
Then, he lay on the deck chair and poured himself some alcohol
The only thing that filled his head was the thought of Elena the way she spoke and moved
He took a sip of his Campari drink while he thought about how bold she was and the way she glared at him without fazing, he smiled
he held his glass between his fingers and twirled it, hmm I like her
Soon Mario came up to him with a file in his hands and stood next to Armando
You can sit down Mario he said as he pointed at the couch next to him, Mario took a few steps and sat on the couch
He dropped the file on the table in front of them
Boss, I've gotten what you asked for he said looking down at the file
What is that?
You ordered that I find out everything about that lady you met at the mall two days back
Armando quickly picked up the file and opened it
Her name is Elena Alberto, she's an 18-year-old high school lady in her final year
She lives alone with her dad
Hmm, interesting he said as he read through the file while stroking his beard with a smile plastered on his face
You did a good job, Mario
You couldn't get her phone number or socials? He asked as he looked front and back for her contact
Well surprisingly she isn't on any social app she doesn't even have a phone. Having a phone should be the least of her problems
Oh…I see
Armando's phone rang and he picked it up, it was from the consignee who was supposed to receive the goods that were sent to them
Hello Maxwell, what's the problem? He asked because Maxwell never calls him directly instead he settles everything himself
“Uhm…boss we have a problem, the goods that we were supposed to receive are being held and I've tried my best but they won't budge. It seems someone is behind this and if I'm not wrong it's Vicenzo!”
Vincenzo Di Lauro of the Camorra family the mortal enemy of the Cosa Nostra family
Goddammit! That sickening son of a b*tch!
He stood up from where he was sitting I will be there then he hung up, Mario we are leaving to meet with Maxwell, he went inside to his room to change his clothes
Elena has just woken up and is in preparation for school after the long vacation
She did her morning routine, dressed up, and brushed her hair
On her way out she saw her father sitting in the living room
She went and gave him a kiss on his cheek
Dad, aren't you going to work today? It's late already and you don't seem to have prepared
“Baby, I'm sorry I forgot to tell you I was laid off from work but I will be going out today to find another job,” he said with a sad face
You shouldn't be sad there's always a way out of everything. I'm sure you'll get a better job! one that will take us out of this place and I will work better to make sure I make you happy
She said trying to cheer him up
Why don't you stay home today and have a good rest all you've done is work, and you need rest too maybe it's a good thing that you will be home today
She gave him a hug, I'll be leaving now pops
She went to the bus station and took a bus to school which dropped her at the front of the school. She was about to walk in when she saw Anna and her minions walking toward her, she stood where she was, she wanted to pour her mind out to Anna for the trouble she caused her at the mall and for lying about her stealing jewels
Anna walked past her using her shoulder to push her aside and her minions followed her as she walked into the class
Elena fell to the floor on her butt
Shit! I'm going to get that ass-hole for this! How dare she push me after everything she made me go through!
She walked inside the class pissed off without minding that a teacher was standing in front of the class
Anna! What was that all about, you owe me an apology!!
An apology? For what?!
The whole class turned their attention to Elena and Anna
Do you suffer from amnesia or have you suddenly gone mad?!
You told those lies about me at the mall, calling me a thief and you're here pretending not to know anything about it, and now you pushed me away like I'm some fly you can just fling aside
Anna stood up from where she was sitting to face Elena
Aren't you just a fly? Because you go to school here with us you think you're something?
You are a thief, if not how do you get to pay to attend an elite school like this one? Because we all know how wretched you are, there's no way you can afford even the clothes you put on. The two girls who are always following her around stood up and stood beside Anna and started laughing
Anna continued to diss Elena, she folded her hands across her chest and took a step forward to Elena. “Or perhaps your dad does the stealing”
Elena without hesitation landed a slap on her left chin
I can take anything but I won't stand here a listen to you insult my Father
Anna flared up and dragged Elena's hair, Elena did the same to her
The teacher who was standing there watching quietly broke his silence
That's enough Elena! He said with a loud voice as he stepped in between them holding Elena's hands
That's enough, you keep disrupting my class. leave! He pointed at the exit as he stared at Elena
She scoffed. Why am I the only one being punished? She started it but of course, I'm the one who gets punished! She said with a stoic expression
Anna didn't barge into my class and start an argument ignoring my presence! Now leave! The teacher said
Anna who was at the back of the teacher was busy sticking out her tongue taunting Elena
Elena picked up her bag and walked out of the classroom
She left the school and went to an amusement park
She always goes there when she is pissed and needs some time to herself. She heard stories from her dad that her mum always took her there so it has been her safe haven
She went and sat on the swing, all she could do was swing back and forth while thinking of how much she wanted to pluck that tongue Anna stuck out to her
Before she knew it time had passed as she had dozed off there, the gatekeeper was the one who woke her up,she picked up her bag and left for the bus station
She took the bus down to her street where it came down and she walked down the path that led to her house. While she was walking down the lain she noticed she was being followed
