His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

After feeling emotionally numb for several hours I decided to call my doctor and was scheduled for a meday. The most difficult thing would be me taking a pregnancy test yet once again to confirm it.

Hearing that the baby was the size of a blueberry was enough reason for me to ignore the doctor all throultrasound. When I was younger I had dreamed of this moment and wished it would be a happy one butcomplete opposite.

I did not know how to ask for a referral to an abortion clinic but I managed to do it. If I removed the babget too attached to the idea of something living inside of my belly.

Yes, that was what I was going to do. I was going to live my life and move on as if nothing happened andremoved the baby everything would go back to normal, there was no reason for me to be stressed and tto work as usual.

But I didn’t want an abortion. I wanted to raise my child and have something completely of my own whicand treasure.

Despite having done it before the idea of stripping while having something inside of me made me sick, adefinitely not something I wanted. “Enzo,” I called out before he closed his office door. He turned aroundeyebrows and a big smile on his face, probably happy that I had approached him for the first time in the had worked here and that it was not the usual other way around. “Do you think you can schedule me betonight?”

Enzo lead me into his office with his arms and closed the door. Just as he did yesterday, he held his handforehead, trying to find something. “Are you sick again?”

“No, I mean yes, maybe a little but I’m still good to work…just not dance.” I quickly made up. It wasn’t exalso far from the truth. Enzo took a map and quickly scrolled through it before closing it again and threw“You know what, I’ll talk to my brother, you go ahead.” He said, and I couldn’t help but feel guilty. Gio wperson to talk to and took everything extremely seriously which is why I went to Enzo in the first place, bwilling to go as far as asking his brother for me.

“Are you sure? Because if I can’t then that’s okay.” I asked trying to play nice, hoping he would ignore mhe luckily did. “Yes, go ahead it’s fine.”

I didn’t have to hear it for the third time and had already turned around to leave but in the process, I bumbody as hard as stone and knew exactly who it belonged to. “Is this some kind of habit of yours?” I heardvoice as he pushed me back.
