Chapter 10: Innocence - Avril Lavigne (Part 1)

Cecilia's POV

Cecilia did not touch her meal, and she pushed the plate. Her Nonno looked at her, "now what we gonna do? We made a mistake, we lose our job due ages, and…" Cecilia stood up and walked outside the building alone.

She sat on the bench and waiting for Julia to come back.

Julia's POV

Julia opened the rolling door, and she saw a lot of the DiNozzo clan's henchmen kneel, including Rico's parents. "D-Don Salvatore, I swear to God…" she shot his leg and eyes mercilessly.

"I'm sorry! I-I…" Julia shot all of DiNozzo's Capos's on the head.

"So, you the one who declares a gang war?" Julia squat in front of him and slapped his face, "or you the one who brainwashed my uncle, hm?" She rubbed DiNozzo's face with her baseball bat.

Julia looked at his wife. "How old are you?" She lifted her head and looks at her.

"2-24 years old," she said. Julia stood up and took a deep breath. She saw a ton of cash behind them and whistle. "It's much," all of Julia's henchmen were cheering.

"I will give you a gift to who present, today and…" Julia walked towards Don DiNozzo's wife.

"This woman is now a widow," Julia shot Don DiNozzo's head and flee from the scene. She gave the gun to Giusto and took off her gloves.

"Brings all the money, all their business paper, and goods. Calculated them all, and give me the report tomorrow afternoon." Julia said. She looks at Don DiNozzo's wife from the distant, "sell her to the brothel, before that makes sure she's clean," she walked to her car and make a call.

Julia picked her phone and called Cecilia, but her call interrupted by a shout from Giusto. She groan and forced to end the call.

Cecilia's POV

Cecilia waiting for hours now and the night began to became cold. She rubs her arms, but she won't move an inch.

A footsteps sound echoing in her ears. Her face turned into red. "Hey…" Cecilia stood up, and she walked to the main entrance, but Chester hold her head.

"Go home, Chester." Chester gripped her hand.

"Irene is not my wife, Cecilia!" Cecilia tries to let go of his hand, but his grip began to tight every struggle that Cecilia made.

"Let go of me!" Chester gives up and strolled back. Tears fall from Cecilia's eyes.

Cecilia faced him. "let's break up. I guess you only love me when I have everything, or you only want to sleep with me!?" Cecilia asked as she burst into tears. Chester shook his head.

"I…" he clenched his jaw. He pinned Cecilia on the wall. "she's not my wife, Cecilia. Please believes me!" He said.

Cecilia tries to push him away. "Let me go!" Chester was adamant about letting her go, then he slapped her face.

They were stunned. She used this opportunity to push him. Chester didn't give up to give up on Cecilia, he pulled her and pinned her again against the wall. Once again, she burst into tears.

"Are you done, Mr. Kingston!?" Chester clenched his fist, and lift Cecilia's head with his finger.

"Tell me, Cecilia. How to get back to you? How to…" Cecilia pushed and glared at him.

"Please, don't comeback to me. I hate you." When Chester was about to hold Cecilia's hand, Julia pulled his coat collar.

Julia's POV

"Shit!" Julia pushed him to the ground and stared at him.

"Are you okay?" Julia cupped Cecilia's face and hugged her tight. She can feel her body was trembling on her embrace.

"Why took it so long!?" Julia wiped her tears and kissed her forehead. Cecilia holds Julia's arms. Julia took off her jacket and wearing it on her shoulders.

"It's cold out here. Let's get inside." Their hand twined, Chester who looked at their hand took a deep breath. He stared at them from the back as he strolled slowly.

Julia opened the door for Cecilia, and she let her get inside first.

"You want to stay for the night?" Julia looked at their hand tangled. She let her go.

Julia wants to stay there, but she won't let Mariano feels alone. Julia put her hand inside her pocket and took a deep breath. She hugs Cecilia tight and kissed her forehead. "Cry if you wanted to cry. I'm waiting." Cecilia shook her head.

Julia took a deep breath. "Please, stay." Cecilia hugs her tight, trembling.

No one wants to start a conversation. Julia looked at her face and saw a red bruise on her cheek. She touched the bruise and kissed it slowly. Without a permission, she pulled Cecilia's hand to the kitchen and sat her on the chair. No one dare to speak.

Julia opened the freezer, and she didn't find an ice. "H-hows the meeting?" Julia took a glance at her.

"Not that bad, Rico alive," Julia closed the fridge and she lean her back on the sink.

"I…" Cecilia stood up. Julia approached her and let her rubbed her face. Julia grabbed her hand and put her hand on her shoulder.

"Don DiNozzo's wife stabbed me on the shoulder. I did not expect that." Julia kissed Cecilia's fingers. "You should listen to him," Cecilia let go of her hand, and sit back.

Julia kneel and grabbed her two hands. "Hey…" Cecilia stood and walked to her room. Leaving Julia alone in the kitchen and she took a deep breath.

Cecilia's POV

Cecilia slammed the door and sit leaned on the door and took a deep breath. The world was not fair to her. She loses her sight, parents, and a boyfriend that she loves him so much. Before this happened, she never shed a tear.

She hugged her knees and closed her eyes. Memory about her relationship with Chester played inside her brain like a movie.

"Hey, I want to go home, but I will tell Giusto to pick you up." Cecilia ignores her. "Don't be hard to yourself. Good night," she wants makes her to stay, but her tongue stopped her to say a word. God was not fair, that's what she thought. God took everything from her.

God works mysterious way, but for her, God can't treat human equal. She heard her stomach growled. She felt her head spinning in the dark and fall.
