1 YEAR LATER…
DOMINIC
Full moon. Shining brightly among the small twinkling stars but still lonely. Did it feel as lonely as me, living among these people? The whole Cosa Nostra, my family, my soldiers who looked up to me. Everyone was there but still, no one was there.
Why did you leave me? Why didn't you hear me out? Was it so insignificant, what we had? You should have trusted me or at least given me a benefit of doubt. I lost my child too and then I lost you.
My heart squeezed so painfully that I couldn't breathe. I couldn't breathe every time I was alone, since the day she…
I sat up with a jolt and clutched my chest, trying to breathe hard. Grabbing the bottle of water beside me, I uncapped it and took big gulps. Water spilt from the corners of my lips, sliding down my neck and wetting my t-shirt underneath the woollen jacket.
