~{SAN FRANCISCO}~
In the deep town of deshmac,a young lady in her early twenty's stood in front of a large mirror to check her self out.
"This seems nice for the first day at work" this young lady assured her self, she picked up her hair brush and began combing her long brown curly hair ,it was naturally curly and no amount of combing could make it straight.
She defeatedly dropped the brush after much struggle to make the mop of a hair straight.
Who was this young lady ??,meet ESMERALDA SANTOUS also known as Elsa a vibrant ,arrogant and stubborn young lady leaving with her parents and her cousin in the town of deshmac.
Esla walked down the stairs in a hurry since she was running late for her first day at work.
"Mom am late ,am not eating breakfast can you pack it up" esla said as she reached the living room.
"But you didn't eat anything last night dear" Mrs santous said from the kitchen.
Elsa rolled her eyes and sat on the sofa,she brought out her phone and saw a message from her best friend Alice.
"hey Bestie are you at work??" Alice sent to esla.
"Nahh,mom wants me to eat breakfast before I go"Elsa typed back.
" but you're going be late,do you want to get fired on your first day of work"Alice typed back.
"Not like I care"Elsa typed back then she threw the phone back into her bag..
Yeah she didn't care about the job but because of her father who always saw her as a workload in "his house", Elsa had to work and contribute also to the family.
" gosh mom am running late ,I'll just have it when I get back"Elsa half yelled ,she was an impatient squid.
"Then just leave" shasha ,Elsa cousin said from behind her.
Elsa glanced at shasha as she took her seat next to Elsa.
"Don't you have somewhere else to be??" Elsa asked.
"Nope,just gonna press my phone all day and stalk aurelio romez all day" shasha said and brought out phone and as she said she went to Instagram and began glued to her phone.
Elsa picked up are bag and dashed out of the house.
Minutes later Mrs Santos came out of the kitchen with a tray of food in her hands.
"She left already" Mrs santous sighed sadly,Sasha stood up and walked over to her.
"Don't feel sad aunty,let Elsa starve I'll eat this food" Sasha said hungrily and collected the tray from Mrs Santos hands.
"I wanted to speak to her about something important" Mrs Santos muttered ,she left the tray with Sasha and walked up the stairs to her room.
"Did you speak to your daughter??" A voice said as Mrs Santos (Tina)entered the bedroom.
"She is your daughter also" Tina said
"Answer me "Mr Santos(Marcel) said this time in a High voice.
" no,I didn't get the chance to"Tina said
"Then it will be a surprise to her then" Marcel said with a smirk on his face.
~~{ ROMEZ MANSION ; OUT OF DESHMAC}~~
Two people were since discussing in the living room and by the way there voices were loud it could tell that they were arguing with each other.
"You can't just believe what your priest tells you honey" a man's voice could be heard.
"No,I believe him cos anything he says about our family always comes to pass" the lady argued back..
They were Mr and Mrs romez,owners of the romez company in San Francisco, one of the largest company in the whole city known for their wealth and fame and also there handsome son AURELIO ROMEZ.
"How can you believe such things nothing is going to happen to aurelio you" Mr romez tried to convince his wife but she was determined
"That is when he gets married to the girl that was chosen for him not that liliana of a prostitute" Mrs romez shot back.
" honey, don't say that please "Mr romez said
" I will say what ever I want ,and if you don't accept what am saying I will kill my self "Mrs Romexz(Victoria) shot back and Mr romez(Fred)eyes widened in shock.
" you don't mean that "Fred said
" try me"Victoria said and stormed out of the house.
Fred roughed his hair in frustration
"What the hell is wrong with her,is what she's saying true" Fred thought for a while.
"You know what to do,fire her immediately she gets to the restaurant, I don't want my daughter in law working" Victoria said over the phone to someone as she entered her car.
"Yes ma'am" the person said from the other side then ended the call.
Victoria then made another call to someone else.
"Round up what ever you are doing and come home early I have something to discus with you" she said at once
"Alright" the person said and ended the call.
~~{ROMEZ WAREHOUSE}~~
the warehouse was dark and scary only a blub was lit and it shined on a man who was tired on all four side with chains.
"Please don't kill me" the man begged he was already brutally beaten with marks all over his body as if he was wiped several times on the same spot leaving a deep cut.
His nose were bleeding so was his hands since his pinky finger was cut off.
Creepy foot steps were heard coming forward then it became louder till it stopped finally.
"You still having died yet" his muscular voice boomed the walls of the warehouse.
He walked to the table and picked a knife ,the mad began to tremble in fear once more.
"May be I should just kill you once and for all" his voice echoed again through the walls..
"Tsk tsk" he twisted the knife and brought it near the man face.
"Are you gonna talk or should I bring the Truth out of you"he said and he stabbed the man on the stomach.
The man cried in pain " I will talk,master aurelio please don't kill me"the man cried.
Aurelio smirked as he used the knife to tap the mans cheek "good boy" he said.
"Why did you betray the gang and plan my attack" aurelio asked with a killer look on his face.
AURELIO ROMEZ the first and only son of the family, a dashing ,handsome and charming demigod as some would call him. Also a mafia boss and an expert killer the best of Hus kind ,he was brutal when it came to torture. He tortured his prisoners with no mercy like a man with no heart.
"I did it for the money he offered to pay me,Ryan boss, I wasn't thinking straight back then boss am sorry please forgive" the man begged for forgiveness even when he knew there was none.
"Should I forgive him Derek" aurelio asked his best friend also right hand man in the mafia world.
"Its your choice aurelio " Derek answered with no hint of a smile on his face.
"Aurelio romez shows no mercy" aurelio uttered ,he used the knife and stabbed it through the man throat ,he died instantly.
"Get rid of the body,I don't want my warehouse smelling traitors" aurelio said to Derek
"And what are you going to do about Ryan,the dude hates you so much" Derek said as they both walked out of the warehouse,getting into aurelio's car, he drove with full speed out of the area.
"I think its high time I deal with him once and for all,get the men track down his location and keep tabs on him,we will attack when he Keats expects" aurelio said ,his look was deadly ,to show his was angry.
"Alright" derek said and faxed the road,he was a man of few words.
"Mom called she wants me home early ,saying she has an important discussion with me,what ever it is" aurelio said and rolled his eyes.
"Why are you then telling me??" Derek asked
"Am inviting you over for dinner idiot" aurelio snapped.
"Then you could have said so,fool" Derek shot Back and they both burst into laughter.
The only person aurelio ever smiled to was his parents,Derek and his girlfriend liliana.
6PM ~~{DESHMAC STREET}~~
Elsa walked down the streets back to her house with her hand bag with her ,she had some traces of tear in her eyes to show that she was crying.
"Just this one job I couldn't even keep it am I cursed or what??" Elsa asked her self,earlier when she went to the restaurant, the owner fired her immediately saying she was late and they don't tolerate lateness.
"Don't say that Bestie,the owner is a doof head,how can he just fire you just like that" Alice said trying to cheer Elsa up.
"Just forget it ,I wasn't meant to get the jib in the first place, so ..." Elsa trialed off.
Alice sighed and hugged Elsa by the side.
"Don't best your self up,we will find you another job,or better still get married to a rich family so you can be free from your dad tauntings" Alice said and Elsa chuckled lightly.
"I don't even have a boyfriend and you are talking about marriage keep dreaming Alice,keep dreaming" Elsa said
"Whatever,see you tomorrow at my place,ace is back so mom wantsme to prepare dinner tonight" Alice said
"Oh,good night then,say hi to ace for me and aunty yasmen" Elsa said,alsice nodded and took the other turn to her house.
Elsa reached the front of her house and sighed ,how she was going to explain to her parents that she lost another job for the third time.
Immediately Elsa opened the door she bumped into Sasha .
"Gosh ,are you blind or what" Sasha shot at Elsa.
"You are the blind one get the f*ck out of my way" Elsa shot back and pushed Sasha out of the way.
Sasha scoffed and went out of the house.
They just never got along.
"Darling how was your first day at work??" Tina asked Elsa,she was sitting on the sofa waiting for Elsa to return so she could speak to her.
Elsa didn't say a thing,where would she start from.
Just then marcel came down the stairs with a sore look on his face ,he had been sleeping all day..
"Your mother asked you a question kid" Marcel said as he sat on the chair.
"Mom ,dad,I got fired" Elsa dropped the bomb shell.
Tina eyes widened in shock.
"How did..."
"I knew it,you useless child,you can't do anything right,on your first day for Christ sake,Esmeralda!!!" Marcel shouted and Elsa founded in fear.
"Dad...dad.I can.." Esla tried to say but she couldn't find the words
"Don't dad me,I knew I wasted my money on you through your university only for you not to get a simple job god!!" Marcel shouted the more.
Elsa did by know when she began shedding tears,how those words hurt her deeply.
"Its not my fault dad" Elsa managed to say.
"Honey please don't blame her" tina said to Marcel who shot are a glance and she kept site immediately.
Marcel walked over to Elsa and held her chin and made her look him in the eye.
"I knew this would happen that was why I already made sure I wouldn't go broke feeding you in my house" Marcel said to Elsa who just let her tears flow down her cheeks,she was confused by his words
"You are getting married the day after tomorrow,get that into your skull" Marcel snapped and Elsa eyes widened in shock,she used her hands to remove Marcel hands from her chin
"What..what..what do you mean am getting married??" Elsa asked ,she couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"You heard me the first time,ask your mother for the details and if you don't I repeat my self if you don't agree to this marriage co sided your self dead in this house!!" Marcel snapped at Elsa who flinched .
Like that he left the house banging the door really loudly.
"Mom??" Elsa called out.
"Am so sorry" was all Tina could say.
~~{ROMEZ MANSION}~~
Aurelio"s car pulled in front of the house and he and Derek highlighted the car.
"Any idea what you mom wants to discuss??" Derek asked and aurelio nodded his head sideways.
"Welcome master" a maiden said as they walked in.
"Thank you" aurelio said having a mischievous and naughty smile on his face,he scanned the maid from head to toe then licked his tongue together.
One thing to add to the list,he was a s*x god, loves anything with a p**sy .
"Dude you have a girlfriend for crying out loud,change!!" Derek said as he smacked aurelio head.
"Man shall not leave by bread alone" aurelio joked as he quoted a bible verse.
"When did the devil start going to church" Derek said sarcastically.
"Shut up" aurelio said .
"Son you are back" Fred said as he came down the stairs, behind him was Victoria.
"My baby" Victoria said with joy as if she hadn't seen him for a very long time,she engulfed him in a tight hug.
"Mom you just saw me this morning" Aurelio said as he tried to break free from her hold.
"I guess am a ghost " Derek said hurtfully.
Victoria broke the hug and went to hug Derek too.
"Of course not my boy,mama loves you all" Victoria said and aurelio chuckled
They all went to sit in the dinning room few minutes the maids served them and they began eating.
"Mom you had something important to tell me" aurelio said
"Yes,and it is very important" Victoria said and Fred coughed a little.
"What is it mom??" Aurelio asked again.
"You are getting married in two days time" Victoria dropped the bomb shell.
"What!!!" Aurelio half yelled as he stood up from his chair
"You heard me,and what I say his final in this house" Victoria said
"No way mom,you can say and do what so ever you want but me get married no way I have a girlfriend already and am not even ready to get married to her" aurelio snapped.
"And I don't care you are getting married ant that is final" Victoria shot back.
"What the f*ck mom!!!!" Aurelio shouted as he threw the glass on the table on the wall.
"Aurelio!" Fred called and he stood up,Derek stood up also.
"Bro you have to calm down" derek said but aurelio was already angry
He picked up his phone and dashed out the room he was about leaving when Victoria next words made him stop in his track.
"And if you don't, prepare to see me dead in the next two days,my blood will be in your hands aurelio romez" Victoria said with no ounce of kidding in her words.
