Yearning For The Badboy Mafia’s Love

CALISTA RAYMONDS

Hearing a deep voice around me made me to open my eyes. As much as I try to get whose voice it is, I can tell I’ve never heard that voice in my entire existence.

My eyes first landed on Emma who was sitting next to me and holding my hands. Her eyes were weak and she looked like someone who has been crying.

I recall everything that happened almost immediately. My eyes watered, Chase.

I saw him drowning and he had a bullet shot. My head aches and I squeeze myself in pain before calling out Emma’s name.

“Emma.” I said slowly but my voice was surprisingly low and I couldn’t even hear myself. I blink and move my finger, more like a way to make Emma realize I’m awake which happened.

She looks at me and immediately stood up from her sit smiling.

“She’s awake!” She announced and lean to kiss my cheeks. I gave her a weak smile.

Emma helped me sit up so I can lean on the bed wall and that was when my eyes moved to the other side of the end. And there was a man in all black suit, looking dangerous.

He’s probably in his fifty but he looks quite young. When our eyes meet, he smiled at me but I looked away as I also noticed two men standing behind him, like his guards or something.

“Who are they?” I asked turning to look at Emma whose prey sad eyes were looking down at me.

I was expecting waking up and seeing Chase or any of the family member around me. But no, I wake up to meet someone I have never meet in my life.

“How long have I been out and where’s Chase?” I asked Emma again as she seem not willingly to answer my first question.

I have a headache and it’s just like my head is on fire, but still, I’m awake and I need to know what’s going on and how Chase is doing.

“Why isn’t Chase here? Where’s he?” I asked her once again.

Afraid to hear that something tragic happened to Chase or anything.

” You’ve been knocked out for two days. So is Chase. Don’t worry about him, he’s already awake and he’s in his ward.” Emma said to me slowly.

I could feel something is off. Emma have been my friend for years now and I know almost everything about her. Looking at her right now, she seems bothered and felling tense.

And she won’t stop looking at this men sitting over the far end. Why isn’t Chase here if he’s awake?

“I want to see Chase. Take me to him.” I told Emma ignoring the man in the room with us. I just want to be with Chase, or maybe , I wanted to be away from this man.

Then suddenly I heard him say. “That’s enough Emma, You can excuse us now.”

Emma bowed a little and made to leave but I held her hand and she looks at me.

“He knows your name? What’s going on here Emma! Who is he?” I asked her, but she wasn’t even ready to say a word to me.

It hurts me. Something is not right with her.

“Don’t worry princess. I’m going to explain everything to you.” The man told me.

I watched Emma walk away without a word and it makes everything even more tense and confusing. The man stood up and approaches my bed, he stops and hold my hand and I just looked at him.

“Lucia…” He uttered slowly and I raised my eyebrows in confusion but I didn’t say anything. I look down at his hand on mine and just swallowed.

“You don’t remember me, Do you?” I could notice a pain that came with this word, but whatever it is… I need to know who this man is.

Mere looking at him, you can tell he’s a bad guy. He’s either a Mafia Boss or something similar.

“Do I know you, sorry?” I chuckled nervously and he let go of my hand to fetch his phone.

Showing me a picture of him holding a little baby. I arched my brows again and look at him. His eyes were wet, it seems he’s about tearing up.

Shouldn’t he be ashamed or something?

I laugh again.. nervously. ” That’s your daughter?”

He nods. “She’s beautiful.” I tell him, not knowing what else to say.

He smile and slowly clean his tears then look back at me , taking my hand into his again.

“You see Lucia…” He said slowly and I nervously pull out my hand from his.

“My name is Calista. Calista Raymonds” I told him and he nods and wipe his face slowly before saying.

“You’re right. You’re Calista, But you see…. You’re Lucia too. So allow me to call you that.”

He tried taking my hand again but I slapped him off. He looks like one psycho now, and I looked at the door.

Where on earth is Chase, Emma and others? Why and how could they leave me alone with this man!?

Then more like he was reading my mind. I heard him say…

“I’m your father, Calista…. I’m your father.” He was staring deep at me.

I looked at him and chuckle. “You are?”

He nods and smile at me. But his smile instead disgust me.

“What do you think you’re doing? I didn’t lost my mind so don’t try to brain wash me or something. Actually, I never said I’m looking for my father and sure I’ll recognize him if I see him.” I tell him plainly and look away.

“I know this might be hard for you. But believe me, everyone knows.”

“Knows what?” I arched my brows.

“That you’re my daughter. I’m your father, believe me.”

This time, he looks even more serious than ever and I’m so losing it.

“Look, I’ll be 21 years old soon. And I have spent 20 years of my life with my family. My parents! You can’t tell me otherwise.”

“Actually. You’ve spent 15 years of your life with the Raymonds. You spent 5 years with me…” He said slowly and I looked at him.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

I folded my hand and look at him again and again. “Are you okay or something? Does Chase even know you’re here?”

He nods. “Everyone knows. I tell you.”

Next, the door slowly opened and my father walked in. I looked from this man next to me to my father… And I felt tears clouding up in my eyes.

“Father…. I thought I’d never see you again.” I muttered slowly as he came to my bed to hug me..

I couldn’t help myself, I just let the tears flow. How long have it been since I lived apart from him?
