There was a knock on the gate and I went to open it, It was the Mafia. Not anymore. I was tied of running.
this time they were more than I expected twelve of them and now the Mafia king came out of the vehicle.
I was still trying to place where I had known him and just he approached. I remembered his smell, his eyes , his look.
He was the stranger I had a night stand with a year back.
He was the Mafia king. Many thought ran through my head. First how on earth did know I was ever the one and how did he know I was pregnant.
I confronted him for having put my life and that of my baby at risk. I was beginning to cry not because I was tired of running but because my life was getting much more complicated.
He was now very close to me, he held my hand and begged me for putting me in every pain I was in. I was too young to have been through all that.
I lost family but atleast I was able to know who the real friends were.
'Lets start all over again', he said to me.
I just couldn't hold my pain and before I knew it I was pouring out my anger.
'I wanted to try everything, I wanted to explore I wanted to study I have always wanted to be a tourist and further my education in the world best university which I never got to go just because I fell in love, I got kicked out, I was homeless I was in pain'. I said in pain as he quickly hugged me and for the first time in a while I got to cry my pain out.
I let him into the mansion and for the first time I knew his name. His name was 'Christian'.
He kept apologizing to me especially for not coming back. he explained how he went back to the club three months after and always wished he met me again.
'I still never forget the moment we shared together', he said.
'I looked for you around and finally when I got to know where you were but you never lived there anymore', he said
'I couldn't take the gamble anymore then I finally revealed to him the truth that I was was pregnant for him and got kicked out, "i got pregnant after a night stand', I added
' I always had the feeling it was mine'. Christian said
what if I tell you the baby isn't yours I said.
'The very first moment I met you, I knew I was your first', he whispered as I felt chills.
WHAT NEXT? I ASKED my self
I didn't let him see Jordan I feared he might take him away from me
'We're better off without you' I said as I stood up in anger.
'I have always looked for you I promise', he said
I could tell he wasn't lying but he was a Mafia king it wasn't safe I wasn't ready to put my son's life in danger.
'sometimes two people need to fall apart to realize how much they need to fall back together', he said.
i don't know if he always casted a spell on me because with him around me I feel all different. I was scared of falling in love with him all over again. I was happy he was back to my life but I just wasn't sure if he' wanted me as much as I wanted him and as much as I have always wished he did.
He left without seeing Jordan. I still wasn't sure if I wanted to risk it. I know Jordan was a part of him too and I have no right to deprive him of Jordan but with all I went through I love my son with my life.
since I finally knew Christian was the Mafia king I thought hiding wasn't something i should continue since he already knew where I lived .
Few days passed without a sign of Christian and deep down I had a feeling he had left again and this time maybe it was forever. I just wanted a perfect life.
As I stepped out of the mansion i saw Christian, he was alone, he had no escort and I was shaking in stock.
He approached me and immediately he kissed me.
What was happening I thought to myself.
Christian had given up being a Mafia. he wanted a perfect life with me.
He said he had never been the same the very moment he met me and he wasn't going to suffer any more heart break. he kept begging me to forgive him and accept him.
The truth is I have always loved him . 'Don't deny me of your love', Christian begged.
True love stories never have an ending I thought to myself.
I finally allowed him to meet with Jordan his son. you should see the joy in his face, he was so excited and happy. There is no love on earth greater than that of a father for his son."
Christian spent the whole day with Jordan, he Just didn't want to leave him as well.
'You two are what matters to me now, I want us to start all over you, Jordan and I, I want to give you the life you lost and much more love you deserve, I want to fulfil your dreams and most of all I want to love you', Christian said as he drops Jordan on the bed and walks to me. he pulls me slowly to him and kisses me softly. I was so excited that even after my life was falling I finally had a reason to be happy. my prayers wasn't in vain and my night mares were over.
I was going to spend the rest of my life with the love of my life.
Christian and I started all over again, we went to live in a much more quiet environment away from the cops and away from trouble, i was able to start college even though it was part time because I had a son to be with a husband to take care of.
I was able to get back in contact with Lola through her mother who gave me her contact and she was eager to meet with Jordan and she was much more surprised and shocked when she knew that the stranger I had one night stand with, my first love was now my forever man.
I just only wished my parent would accept me back. but I have a feeling it was late.
someday I'll visit my home and I hope they'll receive me with hands open.
'Sure they will', Christian says walking into the room as he stares at rose who was telling her son Jordan the journey of her life.
'How long have you been here ', rose asked
'Hours ago", he replied 'you forgot to tell him just one part ', Christian said
'What part? rose asked.
'where I pulled you close to me and kissed you sweetly', he added.
"common', rose said smiling as Christians pulls her close to him with her chest against his, he could feel her heart beating so fast, he strokes her hair to the side of her ears, inhaling her sweetly cold breathe he makes way to her ears and whispering into it. 'I bless the day I met you', he said.
