Chereads / La Nostra Pace (Our Peace) / Chapter 14 - Chapter 13: Ruined Peace

Chapter 14 - Chapter 13: Ruined Peace

It's been 3 days since they attacked, but Fantasma Rosso haven't made their move. Everything's not back to normal, stated by the Branch 1 members. Delta has been distancing herself, the doctors of the House Quattrocchi declared Flavio that he is currently in comatose, Letizia is currently attending counseling, while the others are having their break. The cafe is still being fixed, that's why, but still, they should be cautious when roaming around the city.

Luciano decided to cheer Dorotea up by walking around the city, it is a bit hot but thankfully the buildings are blocking the sun rays. While walking, the two ate an ice cream and then went malling but still, Dorotea stays silent the whole time. Upon walking around, they saw Dante in the Pet Shop, buying some pet foods.

The two approached Dante, "Yo, femboy." Luciano greeted, "Call me Dante Marco the 2nd, also, what brought you here...? With Doro?" Dante responded.

"We could hang out if you want." Luciano offered, "Nah, I will pass.. I have a lot of things to do.." Dante rejected as he walks away while carrying the paper bag.

"Wait, are those nuts...?" Dorotea asked.

"Uhh, yeah, and how'd you knew it was nuts...?" Dante asked back.

"I just guessed it.." she averted her gaze.

"These nuts are for Flavio's pet hamster though.. I'll be taking care of Pucci since he's still in coma." Dante responded.

"C-can I come..with you..?" Dorotea bashfully looks down

"Sure.. Luci you comin'?" Dante shots a sideward glance at Luciano, he nodded in response.

The three walk together towards the apartment, after reaching the building they entered their apartment.

"Giusto anong ginagawa mo rito?! (Giusto what are you doing in here?!)"Dante exclaimed upon seeing Giusto laying on Flavio's bed.

"I can't understand a thing Dante." Giusto sighed while poking Flavio's pet hamster, Pucci. "Adorable!" Dorotea exclaimed before rushing towards the hamster.

"Wait, do you like hamsters...? We can buy one if you want." Luciano offered.

"No, I want to look after Pucci and also, stop poking the furball you simp." Dorotea responded while glaring at Giusto who stopped poking the hamster.

"Jeez.... I guess we four will be hanging out in here.." Dante sighed while putting the paper bag in the cabinet.

"Who said four?"

"Tomasso why the hell are you here?!" Dante threw a canned good at him yet he only caught it. "I was bored... So after seeing you three walking towards this establishment, it piqued my interest." Tomasso explained, "Don't worry, I brought snacks." he added while showing his backpack filled with foods.

Meanwhile, Delta can be seen feeding the pigeons with seeds in the park nearby the fountain. Pio has been watching over her.

"Say.. wanna visit them..?" Pio suggested while looking at Delta.

"Sure.." she responded while standing up.

He ride on his bicycle while Delta sits on the back of the bicycle. As Pio started peddling, Delta hugs him from behind, since she'll fall if she's not gonna hold onto him. He whistles while peddling while she's gripping on him tightly. The two arrived at the cemetery, Delta proceeds to the Flower Vendor to buy some fresh chrysanthemum, Pio waited for her at the entrance. Delta arrives while bringing three bouquet of chrysanthemum. They visited three graves who are placed next to each other, she placed a bouquet of chrysanthemum on each graves.

Pio only looked at one grave, "Fausta Fiore.." he read the embedded name on it, "Even though only half of your body was found.... Atleast we gave the other half a proper burial.." he added while looking down.

Meanwhile, Delta stares at the other two, owned by Klaus Sapienti and Rosabella Acerbi. A hint of sadness could be seen in her eyes but her facial expression remains stoic. "I really thank you... Klaus.. for bringing me in the Mafia." Delta puts on a tough smile while kneeling, "Even though I never met you, I'm still thanking you for saving me from that old lady's plans." she added while looking at the other gravestone.

"Delta..?" Salvatore was surprised seeing both Delta and Pio in here.

"Ohh.. Salvi.." Delta smiles at him, "Who are you visiting??" Salvatore asks Delta.

"My mom, Klaus and Fausta." she answered while looking at the gravestones.

"So your mother's name is Rosabella.. nice." Salvatore smiles.

"Also, what is your relationship with Klaus from the House Sapienti..?" he asked.

"He was my fiance, we were almost married but his intention was to recruit me in the Mafia." Delta answered while smiling.

"I guess he was a great person..." Salvatore averted his gaze at Delta, she just nodded in response.

Pio can be seen pouting while spying the two, while spying, he spotted Gamma with his girlfriend visiting someone but he just ignored the two. Salvatore and Delta continues to chat while Pio's been spying on them.

On the other hand, Filippo, Beta II, Arturo and Marco has been monitoring the Fantasma Rosso's movements for the past days. Marco concluded the sixth word was revenge while the last one was our peace is ruined. Even him doesn't have any idea on what are those clues for yet he's interested on knowing the truth about the House Quattrocchi. He noticed the weird differences of each 'Arturo' whenever the two interacts. Sometimes the Arturo he knows has this habbit of drinking a lot of coffee while the other only prefers cappuccino. The other is serious while the other is somewhat a joker. He began researching after he overheard Delta and Salvatore's conversation at the House Sapienti garage. He happened to be walking around the area until he heard the two talking about the experiments. It piqued his interest so he started researching about the House Quattrocchi. He's also working hard to be the House Maestri's candidate, in that way, he could fix the corruption inside of the Mafia that the others can't notice nor see. The secrets of the House Quattrocchi is one of the examples. He do know he's one of Eduardo Maestri's 13 sons, perfect memory, that what others call it.
