Val's pov

He looked at me with no emotions on his face. I didn't know what to say at all. He was right in front of me, my childhood friend. He was so tall and more handsome.

"Val?" He decided to speak first. His voice was so deep and sexy, oh my god, what am I thinking.

I snapped out of my trance and took a step towards him. I stopped when I saw he was taking a step back. I looked at him, confused and hurt.

"I see you're back, huh?" he said with an emotion I couldn't describe.

"Ye...."

"Well that's good to know, anyways nice to meet you again Valentina but I guess I have to take my leave" he cut me off before I could finish speaking and turned back to get inside the car which then set off.

I stood still where he left me. I just couldn't believe it. What's wrong with him? How can he be like this even after not seeing each other for 5 yrs? Why is he so cold?

Em, what happened to you?

"Val! Val!" I snapped out of my thoughts and turned to look at the person who was calling me.

"Yeah?"

"I have been calling you. What are you thinking? and why did you run outside like that? You scared me, you know, " Eve said worryingly, looking at me.

"I'm okay, don't worry. Did the order arrive? I'm sure it did. Let's go inside and eat, I'm hungry, " I said, changing the topic and heading inside the restaurant with Eve behind me.

"Are you sure you're okay, twin?" Eve said after we sat down.

"Yes, I'm fine,"

"I don't think so, I mean, you've been playing with your food, but you said you were hungry,"

"I just want to go home," I sighed.

"Okay, let's go,"

"But you haven't finished eating," I said.

"Nothing is more important than you, now stand up we are going," with that she paid and we went to her car outside.  We got inside and set off home.

"Hey girls, how was your day?" Uncle Marc asked the moment we got inside the house.

"It was fine uncle, where is dad?"

"He has some business to deal with, so I think he will be back late," he said.

"Oh okay,"

"Sir, can I stay for the night with Val?" Eve asked.

"Of course, and please don't call me sir, you could just say Marco or Uncle Marc just like Val." Uncle Marc said.

"Thanks, Uncle Marc," Eve said

"We are going upstairs, uncle to my room uncle," I said.

"Okay, sure, but don't forget to come downstairs for dinner," he said

"Roger that uncle." With that, we went upstairs to my room.

We went inside my room and I closed the door. I sat on my couch and sighed.

"Girl, what's with you?"

"Nothing to worry about Eve, by the way, did you hear that Mellisa from our school is hosting a party?" I said.

"OH MY GOD , A PARTY, REALLY BY MELLISA!?" she shouted happily.

"When and where?"

"Shouldn't the first question be 'whether or not we are invited,' " I said.

"You're right, you know, but how will we get invited? I surely wanna go to Melissa's party. I heard that her parties never dissapoints." She said

"Well, I'm not sure whether we will be invited and by the way, I heard the party will be this week Saturday." I said. Well, it was posted on social media.

She sighed as she lay down on my bed, scrolling down her phone.

"I'm too tired," I said, putting my head on her stomach. The rest of my body on the bed.

"By the way, will you tell me why you were sad at the restaurant?" Eve asked as she began massaging my head.

"I don't want you to get worried. Wake me up when it's time to go downstairs. " I said and soon fell asleep because she was playing with my hair.

Emilio's pov

"I'm furious right now, so it will be better if you tell me who sent you cause the moment I start my torture, I swear it would not be nice" I said dangerously calm to the two tied men infront of me.

"W-we, a-are n-not a-l-lowed to...aaaa," one of the men cried out

I cut him off by stabbing him with my knife on his thigh.

"Look, stop telling me nonsense, I just want the name,"

"P-p-lease d-on't, h-e will k-ill my f-am-ily"

"Do I look like I fucking care? No, fucking NO"

"I knew you were heartless but I never thought it was to this extent, just imagine if your loved one was taken it could be your family, your friend or maybe your love. What made you turn into this heartless person, oh wait, I heard it was your childhood friend or might I say love what's her name again? Oh yeah, Valentina, her name is Val..." Before the other man who was silent since I came here could finish speaking, I shot a bullet straight into his skull. He was once one of my dad's men in the past. That's why he knows about Valentina.

I just couldn't tolerate his nonsense, especially if Val was included. Speaking of Val, I know I was rude to her today at the restaurant, but what could you expect me to do, especially after what she has done?. When I saw her at first, I just wanted to kiss and hug the hell out of her, I know it's crazy but that's what I thought at first. I'm angry, I'm so angry, I don't know if it is to her or to me.

"Oh, you were about to say the name of the person who sent you, right? I'm listening, " I said, turning to the already shivering man.

"Mike, pass the torture tools to me, I don't think he will ever speak, I will just enjoy torturing him to release my anger." I said, wearing my torture gloves.

"I will tell you, I will tell you the name"

"Tape him, Mike. He had already lost his chance to speak up." With that, Mike taped the man's mouth to cover up his screams.

"Untape him." I said after I cut all the fingers on his right hand.

"Look, I normally don't spare anyone nor give anyone options, but today, since I saw my girl, I will give you 2 options, the first one is that you tell me the name of person who sent you and I give you an easy death, the second one is that you don't tell me the name and I will torture you in a way that will make you regret ever being born and I swear you wouldn't want that. So what do you say?"

"I-it's Cl-ayton, Gerrit's son. H-e s-ent us to come kill you, " he said.

"That's a stupid and impossible move," I heard Mike whispering behind me.

"To kill me?" I asked, and he nodded. This Clay has some nerves, huh?

"Well, say hi to Devil for me." With that, I pulled my trigger and shot a bullet through his skull. at least I gave an easy death as promised.
