Chapter 8.

He wants me to be desperate about wanting him? Wait and see how I'll make you for me Lorenzo! I smirked and had the perfect plan in my mind.

I called my guy best friend who lives here in San Martino. "Hello Jacob?" "I need your help" I told him everything and then asked if he'll be my fake boyfriend to make Enzo jealous and he agreed.

That evening I called Jac over and discussed what all we could do and it was actually nice to talk to an old friend. I intentionally sat either on the chairs beside the window of my room or on the terrace so that if Enzo ever came up then he could see me and Jacob together. It was an absolute fail because Enzo didn't come up to his terrace or window. Once Jacob went home, I felt like eating ice cream so I took one of my father's cars and headed to a ice cream parlor. It was dark and the city was lit up with car lights and shop lights and stuff like that. I looked all around the streets while walking and eating my chocolate cone. Indeed there were changes in 5 years.

" Buona sera, signora" I turned around and spotted an old man standing there, "May I help you?" "I was wondering if you would help me cross the road, dear?" "yes sure" I helped him cross the road and then started walking on that side of the road. It was comparatively lonely on this side with dark lanes and it didn't feel safe here, I was about to cross the road when I heard someone talking in one of the lanes. I shouldn't sneak but I couldn't control my curiosity.

I slowly walked near the lane and the voices became clear, one voice sounded familiar. I slightly moved my head to see and was left shocked to see a group of men with guns in their hands and one familiar person was holding a gun straight to the head of a man kneeling down. It was Enzo! I could figure it out even in the dim light. I had lost my breathing and felt like the ground beneath my feet was taken away. And then boom! My heart skipped numerous beats and I almost tripped on absolutely nothing. It made a small sound but it blended with the sound of the bullet. I looked up and all I felt was fear and horror. Lorenzo had seen me there and was looking at me, I ran as fast as I could from there and crossed the road without looking anywhere, I ran until I reached my car and unlocked it. I drove as fast as I could and then I felt a car chasing me, I sped up my speed but so did the other car. Ii was driving at full speed right now and there was no way the other car could reach me but I was wrong. They were almost to my car but then I took a steep turn to my left without knowing where I was going. I drove for long distance with the same speed and the car chasing me, I had my heart in my mouth and my brain had shut itself from bringing any ideas. I looked through the mirror and saw that the person in the car was pointing a gun to shoot the wheels, I started crying because I knew these people were great at shooting. I closed my eyes and slowed my car so that even if the car skid it wouldn't cause a huge accident and the bullet punctured my car, it skid for a bit and then it crashed on the divider. My head hit the steering wheel even before the air bag could do anything.

The door of my car opened and I kept repeating 'please don't hurt me' 'please don't hurt me'
