” On my back. And it says the heart can be darker too. And free drugs. I was seventeen then.” He says and I smile.
” Second?”
” Omertà.” He answers.
” You know I actually thought that was supposed to be your first tattoo.”
” Nah. My dad never wanted me to have that in case I decide to leave the mob.” He says.
” And what does the Arabic tattoo mean? And why Arabic?” I ask.
” I like them and the language. And the meaning; It means ‘my soul is darker than night’. The other one ‘angels don’t die’.”
” So your soul is dark? What inspired the angels don’t die?” I ask as I draw random circles around his arm.
” My soul is really dark babe. You gave me light.” He says as he sits up to kiss my forehead and lay back down. I brought him light. Wow.
” And what inspired angels don’t die. I got shot and was supposed to die , I didn’t. Found out God loves me a lot.” He says and kisses my hair.
I rest my head on his chest and kiss his chest.
