1 week after Demar's accident, he was released today and was heading to the grocery store to do some grocery shopping since it's his month to do the cooking and grocery shopping.
***
Before he decides to do grocery shopping...
"Here's a list of things you need to buy," Demarco said as he hand a grocery list long as a toilet roll.
Demar scan the list from top to bottom, then asks, "What the actual father! What the hell! I ain't buying all this!"
All Demar's men look at him with a smirk and ask at the same time, "So, you want to do our laundry?"
"Father no! I'm the one who pays you all! Why should I feed you too!" Demar cursed.
"Well, that's a reasonable answer, but your cooking is the best out of us all," Demarco said as he wink at Demar.
*Sigh*
"Fine, I'll," Demar said as he finally give in.
"YAYYY! Now go shopping!" all Demar's men shout as they rejoice.
***
*Sigh*
"Those guys are a pain in the ass."
While walking to the entrance of the grocery store, his eyes were laid on the girl his heart was stolen by.
"I. . ." Demar said, not knowing what to say because he was shocked to see her here, so he just kept staring at her.
He quickly rush over to her before she left the store, pulled on her hand and pinned her to a wall in a corner where no one was able to see him.
"Huh? What are you doing?" Zora shouts. "He's a Mafia Lord! He's going to kill me!" Zora shouts in her mind as she thought she was going to die.
As Demar puts his face closer to Zora's face, she thought he had some special weapon that was going to come from his mouth and kill her, but surprisingly, he plants a kiss on her pink lips.
"Wait, what!" Zora's thoughts explode as Demar kissed her.
"I know you don't want me around, but please, give me a chance! You're the first girl I ever loved so much!" Demar beg for another chance as he was pinning Zora to a wall.
Unable to believe what had just happened, Zora hide her blushing face and asked, "Can you let me go first?"
"NO!" Demar said in a strict tone. Hearing Demar speak in that tone scares Zora a little, then she remembers; after all, he's a Mafia Lord.
"I'm sorry to use that tone, but because I love you, I don't want you to leave me alone. Give me a chance; after all, you can't bang me just like that, then leave. You need to take responsibility for me," Demar said with a smirk, then let go of Zora.
Hearing what Demar said made Zora's cheeks redder than how they were before.
"Maybe I could give him a chance; after all, I need to know what he wants with me. It can't be that bad, right?" Zora thought to herself.
"Okay, I'll give you a second chance," Zora said, then was greeted with another kiss on the lip from Demar.
"Alright, come do grocery shopping with me. We can get to know each other while I shop!" Demar said as he spoke childishly and pulled Zora into the grocery store with him.

Walking beside each other with Demar pushing the shopping cart, Zora looks over at Demar and watches how focus he was reading the shopping list and picking up the groceries.
Admiring his handsome features and observing him do the shopping, she thought to herself, "How can a handsome and so focused on his work type of guy be a mafia lord? Weird, right?"
"But he's, he's so good looking and h—", Zora thought was cut off as Demar asked her, "Do you think I'm handsome looking why you are staring at me?"
Realizing that Demar catch her staring at him, she replied, "I wasn't looking at you."
He smile and said, "You don't get to admit," then wink at her.
Seeing Demar smile at her, she hid her face because she was becoming red.
"How can a guy like him be a mafia lord!"? Zora asks herself as she hid her blushing face.
Soon after teasing Zora, Demar and Zora were in total silence until Zora broke the ice and asks, "Why are you buying so many groceries?"
Hearing Zora's question, Demar stop what he was doing, then said to her, "I live with a lot of persons I care about. I would even put my life on the line for them and I know they would do the same for me."
Zora became quiet after hearing what Demar had to say and then thought to herself, "It must be nice to have him as your mafia lord because he sounds very caring for the people he works with."
"Okay, time to cash items," Demar said as he smiles cheekily at Zora.
Seeing him smile so happily at her, she felt this warm feeling she has never felt around her family or friend.
Soon after grocery shopping, it was time for the two to go their separate ways, but the time they both spent with each other today, they never wanted to stop spending it.
Demar, who kept glancing over on Zora, was struggling to find a topic to speak about to make the conversation continue, smiles widely at Zora as she spotted him looking at him.
Making eye contact with each other came like time had slowed down as they both look deep within themself.
It was like bright lights; soft and fluffy clouds; doves chirping; the sweet sound of happiness which flooded the fairyland, Zora saw within Demar's eyes, while Demar saw the queen who stole his sadness and replace it with happiness, which cause his world to be brighter than ever.
The two new lovers were on to make history, whether it was new friends or enemy; sadness or happiness; rich or poor; blood or water, they were going to make history.
A second chance isn't so bad...
