Explain To Best Friend: Part 1

Upon arrived at Sweden, Stella quickly checks them both in a hotel, freshen up before she and Marius both head out for dinner and buy the necessity that she needed to deal with people that disturb her.

After putting Marius to bed she quickly on her laptop and alter her personal stuff first in which hack into the National Registration Department to register Marius under her as the legal guardian.

Then she hacks into the Rome airport CCTV on the night of the incident to get a clear view on what happened from there she saw the kidnapper's tattoo and by that lead, she hit the Blood-Rose Gang, the fifth-biggest Mafia gang in Rome.

"But why are you targeting the Manzano family? Is this gang want to get eliminate from this planet that bad?" asked Stella to herself as she murmurs lowly.

Then she searches deeper and deeper into the organisation in which she hit a jackpot and things start to get clear.

"So he's a Manzano who run away from Zeta Rose aka the trouble maker young daughter who is a married woman another man but why want to hurt the Manzano and kill them?" asked Stella again to herself.

"Or it happens because of jealousy? But that doesn't prove anything unless.. urgh, goosebumps. No, no, this isn't some drama shit" add Stella as she looks out at the window and thinks hard on how to eliminate them first before they come for her or Marius.

For the next couple of days, Stella and Marius stay and blend in like a local Sweden people as they enjoy their mother-son time without realising the weekend was up and so does her freedom with her son as she just landed at JFK airport (New York) after a long almost 12 hours flight direct from Sweden to NY.

Stella breath in and out trying to ignore and ease her body from the tiredness from the long flight before she halts a cab and head over to their penthouse to face her best friend who probably fuming in anger.

'Okay, she might be pissed at me, no scratch that she's going to get really angry at me for ditching her but it wasn't my fault though' said Stella to herself as she arrived at her penthouse.

It was as if the whole situation turn slow motion as the lift door open and Stella stiffen up looking at Skylar folding her arms in an angry stance while her face plastered with 'you better explain yourself' facial expression and Lucian on the other stand beside her in a relaxed manner but soon both facial expression turn to a shocking one as they saw Stella with Marius.

"Haha, haha, hi guys. What's up?" asked Stella after her fake laugh.

She then walks inside the foyer while rolling her cabin size luggage in with her and a babbling Marius who play with his mother's shirt.

"What. The. F!" said Skylar a little loud in which startle Marius and he started to cry.

"Oh baby, shh.. mummy got you," said Stella as she bouncing Marius and cooing him trying to get him to settle while walk over to the sofa.

She then unbuckled the baby carrier and the baby backpack before she proceeds to put Marius down in which intensify his crying fit, she then quickly pick him up and walk over to the window but it didn't help at all.

"Grab the backpack and search for his bottle and take the milk out," said Stella as she turns to look at Skylar who still looks at them in shock.

"Skylar, the bottle and the milk," said Stella again.

"Right" reply Skylar quickly and get the milk and bottle out from the bag.

She then follows Stella to the kitchen as she expertly makes Marius milk then she walks over to her room and gets him to bed a few minutes later Marius quiet down up to a point that he falls asleep.

"Okay he's asleep," said Stella as she exits her room without closing her bedroom door.

"You and I need to talk, Lucian you need to go," said Skylar as she stands in the middle of the room with her hands on her hips.

"Okay, then that's my cue. Bye ladies" said Lucian as he exits the living room and walks over to the lift in which the lift automatically open for him.

"Take me with you" murmur Stella as she looks at Lucian who walks towards the lift while giving her the good luck sign.

"You are not going anywhere. You have shit tons of explanation to do" said Skylar as she overheard what Stella saying.

"Now explain yourself," said Skylar in a small voice as she feels bad for her best friend who looks tired as she takes a seat while Skylar walks over to the kitchen to brew some green tea.

"It's going to be dinner time soon you know, there's no need for tea now," said Stella as she seat on the high chair.

"I know but your tired eyes is killing me" reply Skylar as she put the tea in front of her which instantly Stella smile at Skylar and bring the cup near her lips and give it a few blows before she takes a small sip.

"Now could you please explain to me?" asked Skylar as she walks over and takes her seat next to her.

"Remember after we still text each other in the flight, well after the text I close my phone and waited for a couple more minutes before the plane takes off but then I heard crying baby wailing because his ear was in pain," said Stella.

" Which is a normal thing to do for a baby to do which is to express themselves duh," said Skylar annoyingly.

"Yes exactly but not everyone agrees on that idea as the other passenger slowly angry as the wailing baby some passengers were groans and grumpy as the murmur start so I call the stewardess just because I fear for his health as it was going for more than 30 minutes, so stewardess went and check on the baby and at that time I can see the mother's face, a very visible tired eyes. Babe if you were there you'll help her too, trust me it was bad. She looks like she's going to collapse any time soon. The stewardess suggest a different idea to the mother but the baby won't cooperate then out of nowhere a moron suggests to give the baby some sleeping pill as soon as I heard that I got so angry and speak up to them before I offer my help to them" said Stella in a proud voice.

"I'm proud of you my babe, you did a very good job defending the poor mother. Cheers to that" said Skylar as she smiles at her best friend who smiles back at her before she does a 'toast' action.

"Then babe you know what she said next, it really breaks my heart to hear that. She said that she's tired, her baby is cranky, people are adding fire to the tiredness that she's trying her best to deal with and people not even help her but keep on complaining. While she silently crying as she looks down. I feel so bad for her like this shit should be done unto her at all, then at that moment an angel who was asleep the whole time woke up and asked about her mother why is she crying. She's the sweetest I'm telling you, wait let's go to the living room and I'll show you their pictures" said Stella as she walks over to the living room together with Skylar.

"Give me a minute, let me on the laptop and show you," said Stella as she zips open the luggage and pull her laptop.

"New laptop?" asked Skylar.

"Have too since I didn't bring my laptop from home and I have to buy this new laptop and phone just to clear my tracks and baby Marius track," said Stella as she clicking the photo of the lady and her family.

"Baby Marius?" asked Skylar as she raises her eyebrows.

"Yes baby Marius the one I just hold and he's my legally adopted son," said Stella with smile plaster at her face.

"Here," said Stella as she shows the picture to Skylar who stiffens at the picture.

"Fuck! Stella, do you know who are they?" asked Skylar.

"No, why?" asked Stella looking puzzled.

"What is Lucian's last name?" asked Skylar.

"Manzano, why?" asked Stella back still don't get it.

"My God you still don't get it to do you?" asked Skylar.

"I know that Marius is a Manzano, that's how I decided to change his name to mine. I know he is from the Manzano's clan, that is why I want to eliminate any evidence of him being born in that family. He's in danger Skylar, he really is and so am I. The Blood-Rose Clan is chasing after us that's why I'm here. To tell you everything, explain everything so that you know if anything bad happens to us you have to go to our family and hide there but now you're with Lucian that won't be any problem as he is the biggest Mafia clan out there and everyone know not to fuck with that, well except this Blood-Rose clan if they dare to do so" said Stella in a serious tone.
