The Mafia's Heir

Chapter 15

Silence isn't empty.
its full of answers.

Neveah Russo

The drive back home was filled with nothing but silence something l've gotten quite used to ever since l came here.

"What's your favourite colour"l finally speak up.

"Black, l've heard it's the colour of my soul"he replies in a dark tone.

Okay.

"Mines yellow it's a cheerful and lively colour that represents joy,energy and vitality"l say.

He just ignores me but deep down l know he's listening, he just chooses to ignore things that he thinks are stupid.

I fiddle with my fingers something l do when l'm nervous or bored.

"What's your favourite movie"he asks taking me by surprise.

"Someone Great and you"l reply nonchalantly.

Before he could reply we pull up to the driveway and l unbuckle my seatbelt and open the door for myself before he can even get out.

I haven't seen Nikolas all day so l went to his room just to check up on him.

I knocked the door about three times before he yelled "come in".

He was sitting in his wheelchair reading a book with glasses on which fit him perfectly.

I closed the door behind me and sat on the edge of his bed.

"Well good afternoon to you too"l said sarcastically.

"My my if it isn't my little sister who chose dick over me"he said.

"I didn't choose dick over you l chose clothes over you"l replied with a small grin.

"Whatever what do you want"he asked removing his glasses and putting them on the night stand next to him.

"I came to check up on my lovely big brother"l said.

"Listen l've only known you for a few days now and l know when you want something what is it"

"Tomorrow's Ace's birthday and l don't know what to get him you a guy what do you like"l say laying on his bed just feeling mentally exhausted.

"I wish l could help you but then again me and Ace are two different people from different worlds, so l wouldn't know but l suggest maybe throwing him a surprise party or maybe just spending time together"he said.

Ace does like attention but he might wake up on the wrong side of the bed and me throwing him a suprise party might piss him off but at the same time if l do nothing he will be more pissed.

"I don't know but l will for sure bake him a homemade cake"l reply snuggling in Nikolas's pillow.

"You better go start now while he is out, he might come back in the evening and by the time he comes back you will be done"he says.

I thank him and head downstairs so l can begin baking.

*2 hours later*

Its been two freaking hours already and l haven't even started beacuse apparently there aren't any baking ingredients, so l sent Giovanni my personal bodyguard and he ain't back yet.

In times like these l wish that Raphael and l were on better terms because he would have gotten the ingredients for me in less than ten minutes.

I see Giovanni walk in the kitchen holding the ingredients and l release a breath l didn't even know l was holding.
