Dilara

Chapter 32:

I bury my head into the pillow on my bed and scream.

Sometimes I hate being a girl. Sometimes. Like this moment now.

Someone knocks on my door.

'Go away!' I yell. They open the door, ignoring me.

'Pazza, I got the hot water bottle you wanted,' Adriano says.

'Give it,' I say my voice muffled because of the pillow.

He hands it to me and I put it on my uterus area.

'What can I do to make you feel better?' He asks.

'Nothing.' I reply. He sighs and gets into the bed next to me.

I glare at him and he ignores me and turns on the TV opposite my bed.

He goes onto Disney +, and puts on Mulan. I look up at him.

That's my favourite Disney movie.

'How did you know?' I ask.

'She reminds me of you?' He replies.

He thinks of me while watching Disney. That's fucking adorable.

'Who knew the tough scary mafia man watches Disney movies.' I laugh.

'Everyone has their own guilty pleasure.' He says smirking.

He pulls me onto his chest as the opening credits finish. He strokes my hair and I wrap my arms around him.

'We're under attack light the signal!' The guard yells from the screen.

I look up at Adriano and see that he's very focused on the movie.

It's funny how a mafia man can sit down and enjoy a peaceful night watching a Disney movie.

He takes out his phone and looks down at me.

'What do you want to eat?' He asks.

'Nothing,' I reply.

'Wendys?' He asks. I nod.

'Double stack burger and a chocolate frosty?'

'Yes please.'

'Quiet and demure...graceful...polite...' Mulan says from the screen.

'Amira, could you bring up our food when it comes?' He speaks through the phone.

'I'm in Dilara's room,' he waits for a reply. 'Thanks.'

He puts his phone down and continues watching the movie.

I continue admiring him. He catches me staring.

'Are you going to keep on looking at me like that, or are you going to do something about it?' He asks.

I smirk and take my attention back to the TV. I hear him sigh.

Not long later, there's another knock on my door.

'Come in,' I say.

Amira walks in with a smile on her face.

'Here's your food,' she says.
