It was night time already and the rain poured heavily. The rain poured so hard it block a man’s view and the loud sound didn’t help him at all. Running through the rain, the man panted and was covered with panic and fear. The man was running away, running for his life.

From what you ask?

Well, just some distances behind that man was another man, chasing him with no sign of giving up. Though the man had screamed for help, it was blocked by the sound of the rain.

Reaching his limit, the man tripped by himself to the wet hard ground. Quickly he turned around and was trying to get up and run again, but it was too late. The chaser stood before him, glaring at him sharply like a knife.

“I-I- I’ll give you w-whatever you w-want! H-here, all of my money!” he took out all the money he brought with him, “P-please don’t kill me! I’ll give you how much money you want!”

The man before him didn’t give any respond. He just stared at the other man’s weak look with his eyes. Kicking the man’s hands full of money, the chaser took out a knife from his pocket and without any more talk, he stabbed the man, killing him and left the corpse as is.

```

Now you were walking to the café you work at. Humming along the way, you walked happily. Once you arrived, there were your co-workers gathered in front of the café. It seemed they were discussing something. You couldn’t help but made your way to them and asked what happened.

“Hey, Jess, what happen? Why are you all here?” you asked one of your friend.

“Oh, (name), have you not heard it? Our boss, he died!” she replied.

Hearing that, you were shocked. How come? He was still here yesterday, organizing everything before you all started working in his café. You couldn’t think of any disease he had. He was too healthy to be considered sick.

“What?! How come?!” was your only respond to the news.

“I heard from Martin that he was murdered…”

“What?!” again you said, “That’s horrible…”

“Yeah… I heard he was stabbed with a knife… And now we don’t know how our fate will be. Without boss, the café won’t work like always.”

“Oh God…”

It was the worst for you. If the café was closed, you had no idea what to do with your life. This café was your only source of money right now. Your life was on the line here.

You all waited for hours before finally had the news that the café couldn’t continue and they had to close the café and all workers were dismissed.

You walked home desperate and disappointed. Now you had to look for the new one and it was not easy to do. Your heart felt burdened right now. You had to start looking for the new one before it was too late.

You let out a long sigh as you arrived at your house. You saw a car and you knew whose it was. Maybe it was a right time for him to come. You entered your house and saw the owner of the car was sitting on your couch, watching TV.

“Hi, Luci,” you said as you put your bag to the floor near the coffee table. You threw yourself to the couch and sighed again.

“Go home early?” he asked casually.

You didn’t know how to answer his question. “Well… no, actually…”

“It’s about your boss, isn’t it?”

“So even you knew… yeah… he’s… murdered…”

Silence overtook and you held your head, not knowing what to do from now on. The more you thought, the more your friend’s words came to your mind.

That’s when you remembered something about knife… You turned your head to see Luciano was staring blankly at the screen. After a while, he also looked at you, “Hm?”

You kept staring at him and you had a bad feeling.

“Hey, Luci… I’m wondering…”

“About what?”

“Uh… Firstly I want to apologize if it’s strange and seem really bad to you, but I can’t help it…”

“Just spit it out, ragazza, I’m listening.”

“Uh okay… Again I’m sorry if I hurt your feeling, but… What did you do yesterday?”

At first, he was silent. Then he stood up.

You looked at his figure, trying to figure out what he was doing.

“If you’re wondering whether I’m the one who killed your boss… then I’ll admit it, I did.”

Well… WHAT?!

Even though you were really shocked, you couldn’t let out any sound. You were too shock. You knew about his bad doing, and it’s the first time that he meddled with your life. Luciano looked over his shoulder. His eyes were locked with you and you jumped at the contact. Because of what? Fear?

“I did that for you ragazza…”

You raised an eyebrow.

“After all this time, I decided to do it, just for you.”

You questioned yourself, is it true? But-

“It’s for your own good.”

That’s it.

“ENOUGH!!” you suddenly snapped. Silence once again filled the room and you glared at him with all you’d got.

“For my own good, you said? Is it? Well, maybe it’s just for your own good, Luciano. You know what? This morning I lost my job, my source of money, to live this cruel unfair life and all of that is because of your stupid decision!” your voice raised in each word. You were truly angry right now.

What’s wrong with him, really! You thought. You couldn’t see this as something good.

“Listen first, ragazza-“

“No! I don’t want to hear any poor excuses of yours! I don’t know what’s in your mind anymore. I thought you understand my situation and condition, but now, I don’t think so,” you were too angry to hear his reasons.

“Bella, please just-“

Once again you interrupted him, “Stop. Don’t call me that again.” You glared at him, “Get out of my house. Now. Luciano Vargas.”

At the sound of his full name, Luciano’s eyes darkened somehow. “I thought we have a deal about that, (name). I told you not to ever mention my last name again.”

You didn’t answer anything and just motion him to get out with your finger.

He just sighed and walked to your front door. “Whatever you think, ragazza, I really did it for you.”

Once he closed the door and walked away, you broke into tears. You let yourself fell into the couch and cried.

```

It had been hours since you sent Luciano out of your house. You had calmed down yourself and were watching news right now, too lazy to change the channel. The news was boring, just like you expected to be, but then you heard your boss’ name was mentioned. You quickly set your attention to the news and saw it through to the end.

You couldn’t believe what you saw. Your boss… he was full with crimes. Corrupting, black marketing and sexual harassing women. You never thought of any of those. He was a fine man in your eyes and even he gave you high salary.

Then the news even said that his victims were usually the ones who was closed to him, from ‘friends’ to his workers, which meant you were almost included to the list of the victims. So far he hadn’t done anything to you, but… what if he would in the future?

Then you recalled Luciano’s words.

You looked down at the floor, feeling really guilty of accusing him. So he wanted to explain this. Oh no, you were really angry and ignored whatever he told you just now. You must have hurt him. What had you done? It really was for your own good, and you couldn’t see that just now.

You quickly grabbed your phone and called him, hoping that he answered your call. But it was in vain, no matter how many times you called him, he never answered. So you decided to go to his house and apologize directly to him.

```

~ Luciano’s POV ~

That (name)… she didn’t even listen to me. Ugh I just didn’t want something bad happened to her. That man was full of crimes, how could she not notice it?

But what she said was true. It was the only job she had and because of that, she could live.

Tch! These thinking made me pissed off. I left my phone in my house so no one would add my anger again.

As if that would be enough, someone bumped to me and said, “Heh, you little brat! Watch where you’re going!”

I sighed, not this, not now. I stayed still in front of him until he spoke another insult, that’s when I replied, “You trash should do better.”

As if that was the cue, the big man before me swung his hand to punch me but I easily dodged it. If he was alone it would be very easy, but there were three of them. I should be careful not to be surrounded by them.

The fight went smoothly as I dodged every move they made until the big man pulled out a knife and swung it to my face. I jumped back, but I miscalculated it as the knife slashed my skin a bit. It was right over my left eye.

The worse was the blood made my vision blurry and before I knew it, the other two men tackled me and held me to the wall. Dammit!

That big man started to wreck his anger to me as he punched me. I tried to struggle and kicked him. That didn’t come out nice though. Out of his anger he suddenly broke my knee, causing me to both lose control of it and suffered a really hurtful pain.

When he was about to hit me again, I heard (name)’s voice.

```

~ Normal POV ~

You panted as you looked for him. You had gone to his home but Flavio said Luciano was going out somewhere. He shouldn’t be that far from his house yet. Flavio said he just went out.

You ran once again and when you saw a fight, you stopped and thought of taking another route. That’s what you thought, before you heard a scream and you recognized the voice.

Your eyes whipped back and scanned from a not-too-far distance and saw that familiar brown uniform and dark brown hair. OMG that’s him! Luciano!

You actually went through a hard thinking. Should you save him? But your life would be at risk too. When that big man wanted to hit Luciano again, you took off from your spot as you shouted, “Stop it!”

They all stopped and looked at you. You looked at the big man, well he really looked like a gorilla if you looked closer. The more you looked at him, the more you scared. The big man, or let’s call him Gori, lowered his fist as he kept staring at you. He smirked.

“Well, we get something more valuable than this little brat.”

The way he looked at you frightened you actually, but you kept wearing that poker face showing you were brave.

“Boys, we have something more here, let go of that trash,” the Gori said. The other men released Luciano, letting him slid down the wall. Now there were three men in front of you and how could you not be scared?!

God, you almost regretted your decision, but seeing they released Luciano was a good point.

Gori ordered his men to stay away and that he would handle you alone.

Well, you absolutely didn’t want to be captured by him. With your heart beating fast, you also prepared yourself for whatever he would do. Gori suddenly charged at you and you dodged to the side. It was like that for a while until he began to be fiercer.

He charged and you dodged but you tripped on your own. You let out a small ‘Ow…’ and that’s when you realized something was in your pocket. It was a pocket knife Luciano gave you one year ago. He told you to have some self-defense thing so he got you that.

You were unsure if you were going to use it or not, but maybe this man deserved it. You took it out of your pocket, and you gripped it in your fist, hiding it. You got up just to see that man ran to you. You dodged to the side again and used his back as a turning board. You landed on the ground and as soon as that man faced you, you slid open the knife and stabbed him, causing blood to taint your hand.

You released your grip on the knife and the man fell down. You panted out of fear and tired. The other two shrieked and left the place at once.

You went to Luciano and bent beside him.

“Luci, you’re still alive, right?” you asked.

“Heh… Yes I am. You pulled a nice move there ragazza…”

His voice was weak and you couldn’t stand it anymore. You helped him stood as his arm wrapped around your shoulder. “Let’s go to the hospital real quick.”

“Ugh… no. Just bring me home.”

“What? No, you have to go to the hospital.”

“Nah, my idiot fratello can treat it better than anyone else. Just help me go home.”

You half-heartedly agreed, but you went to his house.

Once you were there, you let Flavio treated Luciano and you washed your hands from the blood. After you were done, you waited at the living room for Flavio. Also, you planned on what you should say to apologize to Luciano.

After what had been like forever, Flavio went downstairs and called you, “(name), you’re still here?”

You got up and walked to him, “Yes, I mean sorry I’m still here, but I’m worried about Luciano.”

“Oh no, you’re free to be here whenever you want, bella. And about Luci, he’s alright, just a broken bone and bruises. He’d been worse than this before.

You sighed in relief. “Can I… see him?”

Flavio beamed you a smile, “Of course! But I think he’s sleeping right now.”

“It’s fine, thanks.” With that you went upstairs to his room.

Opening the door with a creek, you found him sleeping. No matter how often you saw him in peace like this made your heart beat faster. You approached his bead and sat on the side of the bed. You run your fingers through his hair and said, “I’m sorry… I realize you were right. I’m sorry for accusing you of something you’ve never done.”

You knew he wouldn’t hear you, but you needed to say it. “I’m sorry... so sorry…”

You leaned down to kiss his forehead and his lips. Once you parted, you saw his eyelids opened and you met with those beautiful purple orbs.

“Bella… it’s okay, I know you’re just upset.”

You began to tear up, “B-but you were right. I’m sorry.”

“I forgive you, please stop apologizing.. I hate seeing you cry,” he said as he wiped your tears with his finger.

You were still crying, but you smiled and you put your forehead against his.

“Thank you.. I love you.”

He kissed you and said, “I love you too.”
