His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Fabio High School Diary 2-

This week has been a disaster.

On my way home from school, I got stalked by the transfer student. I’ll call her Snooper.

To make matters worse, it turns out she’s my neighbor, and no matter how hard I try, I just can’t run away from her.

I thought she was just joking around about marrying me, but her parents are one of the most influential people in town, and if there’s something dad loves even more than his Mustang, it’s money.

Please keep me in your prayers!!!

I’ll need them!!!

“Well, dad,” I mumbled, closing the book. “Turns out our life isn’t that different after all.”

The Snooper figure in his diary reminded me an awful lot of my wife.

I would love to have read further, but the loud cries from downstairs stopped me from doing so.

Only one person had a baby, and that was none other than Livia. The confusing woman who would one day decide to be friendly, and the other, treat me with a cold shoulder.

Having nothing better to do, I went downstairs to tease the woman for a bit.

With a worried expression, she tried to shush Dace while an uncomfortable Luis stood beside her with his book in his hands.

“I’m sorry, he isn’t usually like this.” She struggled with the bottle in her hands.

I stopped in my steps, wondering whether it would be okay to tease a mother who was clearly having a hard time.

Fuck it.

It was just, Livia.

“Hey, hey!” I ran down the stairs, shaking my head disapprovingly. “Why is this random baby disturbing my peace?”

Luis chuckled, begging me to stop teasing her with his pitiful look.

“Vince, I am so sorry!” Lívia apologized, rocking her baby. “I know I promised he wouldn’t be a problem, and usually he isn’t, but-”

“It’s a joke.” I would’ve loved to make her sweat for a bit longer, but for some reason, with her, I just couldn’t do it. My heart wouldn’t allow it.

I stretched my arms to offer help and grabbed the baby from her hands. “We don’t cry in this house.” My eyes moved to the cute little pout on his lips as he was seconds away from waking the city.

“Only laughing is allowed.”

Strangely enough, those words helped as Dace went into fits of laughter. He reached his tiny hands and scratched my nose.

“That’s impossible.” Livia gasped, as did Luis.

“It’s really not.” Knowing I had done something to impress her boosted my confidence. I had been trying to do that for a while now, and she was not an easy target. “Everyone likes me, isn’t that right, Dace?”
