Stalked By A Mafia
Chapter 8 and 9
“plea-se” Sila pleaded her face drowned in fear as the giant gave her another sl@p. she felt pain ran down her b©dy, every strength in her was gone.
“Tell me who s£nt you here” the Guy asked still charging on her as she crawled in an effort to flee.
“I wasn’t s£nt by anyone plea-se. I just followed that car.” She shook pointing at the BMW.
“oh well you followed a car for no reason at all?” Ken asked her raising his big hand to hit her again.
“plea-se plea-se! I have no idea what you people are doing here. let me go I won’t say anything.” she cried.
Ken moved his hand to hit her.
“st©p! ” Scar ordered as he c@m£ out of the un-derground,
” thats no way to treat ladies man ” he said as he walked closer to Sila. He turned her around to face him.
“what the hell!” He shouted as he realised who the woman was.
“what on earth are you doing here?” He asked his face furious.
Sila looked at him and grasped.
“you?” She pointed at him.
” it has been you all along. oh my God.” Sila shivered as she saw The scar on the t©p of Scar’s face. Up until that moment she had not been able to realise it was the ra-pist from her past. now that Scar had no shades on, she clearly identified him. she recalled him pushing himself into her as she tried to scream. his hands on her mouth. she recalled the stench of alcohol which almost made her throw up and it pained reliving the moment from the past.
What in God’s name had she put herself into.
“You thief!” she snapped
“leave me alone alre-ady you are a damn ra-pist. God will punish you.” She screamed loudly.
Scar watched her in silence as she shouted not un-derstanding clearly what she meant by ra-pist.
“Boss let’s get rid of her” one of the boys spoke up.
“she probably was s£nt by that Mafia Chile.” He suggested.
” I dont think so” Scar told him while inspecting Sila.
Another guy moved forward and sl@pped Sila ha-rd ,
“tell me who s£nt you, you bit-ch!” he yelled…
Sila fell to the ground again and coll@psed.
“How dare you!” Scar scolded him gr-abbing his shi-t and shaking him angrily,
“don’t ever hit a woman like that again you idiot.” he shoved him back.
“now everyone get back to work” he called out..
Ken put her in the car. I will take care of this myself.”
“but boss.” Ken almost spoke up..
“I said put her in the car dammit! has everyone gone deaf today?” he yelled.
Sila was put in the trunk.
Scar whispered something to Jo and drove off. He wondered how Sila had figured out his hideout. Scar had always wanted a life free of complications. everything had to be staright forward. he hated the complication Sila was putting on his life.
“damn woman” he cursed as he accelerated the car furious. had it been anyone else, the person could have been buried alre-ady.
He hooted continously as he reached his gate. Daka the gate man c@m£ running to open the gate.
“welcome back boss!” he greeted him.
Scar didn’t bother to look at him and Daka knew it was a bad day. He lifted the now shaking Sila. she was almost coming to. He l@yher down on the couch.
Sila screamed as she opened her eyes just to look at the face of her ra-pist close to her.
” Leave me alone alre-ady!” she screamed.
” plea-se I beg you I have a son to take care of don’t kill me.”
” well.” Scar grinned,
” you brou-ght this on yourself woman and no one goes free after seeing our faces and knowing our hideout.”
“I won’t say anything to the police plea-se I beg you in the name of God.” She cried
“Mmmmmmm take it easy Sila and tell me one thing, what the hell was that about me being a ra-pist..?” He asked trying to stay calm.
” Aaron or whatever your real name is, st©p pretending. I now know you have been following me around and even threatened my b©yfri£nd. you are the thvg that R@p£d me 10 years ago. plea-se st©p tormenting my life alre-ady I owe you nothing. I beg you let me go back home to my son.” She pleaded crying.
Scar was shocked and he sat down. “what? You are the girl in the toilet?” He held his head in confusion now that she had said it. Scar recalled the night he had R@p£d her. how could he forget her face.? No wonder she looked familiar the day he saw her first.
“dammit !” he spat, how was he going to handle the situation now.
The woman he had follen in love with was the same innocent girl he had R@p£d. He remembrred less about the r@p£ cause he was drun!k.
Looking at Sila he felt pity for her but letting her go was risk not for him but his whole gang. he was not going to risk his life’s work for a woman.
” Well then… Sila. it’s good to see you again.” he fodged a smile,
“to start with the reason you are even alive now is because I like you a lot. I stalked you without remembering you were the girl I accidentally R@p£d.” He mumbled standing up.
“So ap@rt from being a thief and a ra-pist you are a liar too” Sila snapped. she felt hate for the man before her. she wondered how posible a gentleman who looked calm and so responsible could turn out to be the mafia she was looking at that moment.
“you will pay for this you thvg” she added sacastically.
“Don’t bite more than you can chew woman. don’t take my leniency for granted. I don’t honestly care what you think of me. you have no idea who I am, so judge me all you can I dont give a damn.” Scar scolded.
Sila stood and ran to the door. Scar took quic-k steps and caught her by the door. He gave her a sl@p on her face.
” behave yourself now you hear? ” He shouted, pushing her back to the couch.
Sila hvgged her knees as she cried visibly. Scar felt bad he had sl@pped her. he felt like reaching out to her but hesitated, he loved her but as it was she made every thing even more complicated.
He was not one to be so attached to a woman. he always got a woman he wanted did whatever he wanted and got rid of her but for some reason he felt so attched to Sila it scared him.
He moved to her and gently t©uçhed her face,
“st©p crying now”
he whispered..
Sila spat in his face.
“you devil leave me alone!” she shouted.
Scar withdrew as he wiped his face with a hank .
“do that again and you will never see your son again” he warned her.
“Infact let me go see how his doing ” Scar announced after locking Sila in the spare be-droom.
Sila screamed and hit the door in anger
“stay away from my son you idiot Stay away!” She cried hopelessly.
“Give her something to eat” Scar ordered the man who worked in the house.
” make sure she doesn’t leave that room.” He added.
“Yes boss” the worker responded …
He got in the car. he felt sadiness in his heart.
” why is my life so bleeped up?” he said to himself.
“what the hell is wrong with me.. ?” He sighed angry
Scar decided to go see his mother. he hadnt visited her in a month, she was the only person he wanted to be with whenever things didn’t make s-en-se in his life..
His mother was seated outside on the corridor as Scar parked the car.
“wow my son, you are welcome Aaron” his mother smilled tying her wra-pper.
“Thank you mom” he said hvgging her.
His mother looked at him.
” now what made my Aaron have a sad face this afternoon?” She asked with concern.
“Let’s sit inside mom” Scar told her instead leading her in the house..
“Tell me what’s bothering you Aron. am your mother I can see something isn’t right with you.” She started the moment they sat down
Scar swallowed ha-rd , tears formed in his eyes. Everyone else had never seen him that weak and desparate. People around him thought he was the tough Mafia who had no time to cry., his was action, he was fearless, the master planner, little did they know their Mafia had a tender heart. He had his weak moments too and felt desparate. He too ran out of plans.
His mother held him as he sobbe-d in silence. she felt her son’s pain but had no idea what was going on in his life.
“Tell me what is eating you up my son?” His mother ru-bbe-d his back.
“I can’t mom” Scar told her.
“I feel so sad and lonely my life is meaningless mom I seem not to do anything worthwhile. ” he sniffed in sadly.
“Don’t say that Aaron. your life is worth more than anything in this world. God has blessed you with a good Job and rescued us from poverty. You have all the reasons to thank him..know that he protects your life… for u have a great purpose to fufil in this life.
“There’s no such thing as God mom, forget it. otherwise he could have put my life in a better position my life is So ruined mother.” He responded looking away.
“plea-se my son” his mother st©pped him.
“.there’s a God, don’t ever doubt that. no wonder you are breathing and alive today. He loves you and gives you life” she added.
After talking with his mother, Scar felt better. He got to his car and took off. He still was not convinced about the issue of God but he was glad his mother had talked to him he felt some relief..
He went to the shops and got some toys and other items. He was to see Zac. He knew the boy would miss his mom, he had to come up with something to calm him and the maid down.
Chapter 9
He stood by his car as he watched the boy pl@ysoccer. He felt a grip in his throat, tried to swallow it and felt pain. Scar’s mind went back to when he was Zac’s age.
His friends always made him a leader. He was bad at pla-ying the game but his confidence led other kids put him first.
Scars mother always told him God had a great purpose for his life,
” no wonder he gave you br@ins” she would add,
“continue trusting him Aaron and your future will blo-ssom like flowers. Decide to trust in God’s wisdom” she would say.
Zac noticed Scar watching him, he waved his hands at him.
Scar smiled waving him back and the boy ran to him.
“hey Zac!” Scar greeted.
“hey.” the boy answered.
“c@m£ to see your friend again? ” he asked p@n-ting..
“Yeah” Scar lied
“was just admiring your skill back there.” He smiled wi-dely
“Thank you” Zac smiled as he pla-yed with the ball in his hands. “did you want to greet mom too?” Zac asked…
“No kid, i was just pas-sing. but if she’s around then maybe I can say hi to her.”
“oh .. but she’s not yet back. she went to town this morning and has not come back yet.”
“Is that so? Scar asked..
“yes” replied Zac…
“I have something for you.”
Scar got the video game and other toys he had bought and handed them to Zac ..
“here enjoy the games.”
” Thank you but my mom won’t agree with me getting things from a stranger” the boy hesitated.
“well Zac don’t worry I talked to your mother on phone before coming here. she told me i can get you the games. So here I am.” He shrugged with a smile.
” Really?” Zac jumped with excitement.
“yes kid, come ask her yourself when she comes.”
“Thank you” Zac smiled running back to the house.
” am going to show aunty Maria.”
Scar watched the boy entered the house. He sat in his car and called Jo.
“hey boss!” he answered at the first ring.
“how is it going with the lady?” Jo asked.
” I nee-d to see you” Scar told him without answering his question.
“meet me home after the work is done. by the way how did the boys react? ” he asked before handing up
“You know how it is boss. no one goes against your orders. the general feeling is that we are not safe with the lady. she knows most of our faces and our most important territory.” Jo explained.
“I un-derstand Jo, but am working on it. tell every one to calm down.” “okay Boss” he acknowledged.
*********
Chile shook his head as he watched the news of robbers getting away with 6 br@nd new Mercedes Benz.
” damn you Scar. how in hell do you manage to pu-ll off big jobs without a trace? I trained the boy ” he spoke to his friend.
” now he’s acting all invisible like a god. I can’t just sit and watch him expand his territory un-der my nose.”
“Hmmmn the problem is he’s grown alre-ady and has too many people on his side. so it won’t be easy to take him down and remain standing yourself, you have to be careful.” Chile’s friend advised .
“well I don’t know what I hate the most, the fact that the boy is better than me or that I can’t find anyone like him on my team. All i have are a bunch of idiots who follow orders without any single s-en-se of reason. Just look at the idiot i planted to work at Scar’s house, it’s been 3 months now he doesn’t have any concrete thing for me. he’s so dull, ” Chile frowned angrily.
“I got to find a way to bring that boy down sooner than later” he added pouring some wine in a wine glas-s.
********
At Scar’s house…
Sila tried all she could do get out of the room but there was no way of escaping..
” that thvg! He’s so evil.” she thought. she missed her son and was getting worried with each pas-sing moment how her son was going to take it if she was killed.
She looked at the food in front of her. she hadn’t t©uçhed it since some man who looked at her strangely dropped it before locking the door immediately.
She wondered what Scar had planned for her.
“why has he haunted my life..?” She asked herself,
” it’s like he had a mission to make my life a living hell” Sila cried silently.
Her greatest fear was dying and leaving her son alone. She knew how her family looked at him, a bastard son. No one would take good care of him.
“Oh my God” Sila prayed,
“plea-se save my life and let me out of this place, plea-se.” She cried.
***********
Scar had been talking to Jo in the next room. From the other room.
“so that’s the story Jo.” Scar concluded as he finished narrating the whole story of him and Sila.
” Oh man, that’s de-ep” Jo sighed.
” it’s complicated the fact that she hates you. I don’t know, but it’s ha-rd to convince her otherwise especially that you R@p£d her man. She sees you as a monster.”
Scar looked at the floor really ha-rd , he walked around his be-droom and stood by the window. It was getting dark and he had to do something or Zac and the Nanny would start worrying.
“Give me the Phone” he told Jo.
” I have to see this woman now.”
“what are you going to say to her man?” Jo asked.
“it’s evident you are not going to kill her. You could have done that alre-ady.”
“I don’t know yet. but I have to do something. I don’t want the nanny or her friends to report to the police. I had a guy watch her house. He will keep me informed on the activities at the house.” He responded walking out.
He walked to the room where Sila was.
” hey Boyd!” he called the house worker,
” open that door for me now.”
“Of course boss” Boyd he answered nervously.
Scar had always noticed how nervous Boyd got around him but he had thought he was just being an idiot.
Boyd opened the door and Sila stood up as she saw him walk in.
” Sit down” he ordered her.
” I would rather stand ” Sila answered rudely.
“Very well then, you got to talk to someone, here is the phone. I want you to call your maid and tell her you have been called to work tonight, do anything stupid and your son is dead.” He threatened.
Sila looked at Scar with a hateful look. she couldn’t take chances with her son, gr-abbing the phone hastily she called Maria and told her she was working.
upon hearing it was his mother on the phone. Zac shouted,
“I want to talk to mom!”
” put him on.” Sila told Maria
“Halo mom!. when are you coming back?” Zac asked. Sila shed a tear at the sound of her son’s excited voice
“Tomorrow my son, be a good boy okay ? ” she sighed sadly.
“mom.” Zac added,
” that uncle, your friend with dark shades bought me a video game and other toys” he announced cheerfully.
Sila glanced at Scar with a knowing look.
“okay baby I have to go now. good night.”
“Good night mom” the boy answered.
“What the hell were you doing at my house you fool? you are so pathetic.” She screamed loudly.
“well someone had to keep an eye on him don’t you agree?” Scar responded calmly.
Sila looked at him.
“don’t you dare t©uçh my son, he has nothing to do with all this.”
Scar sat on the be-d quietly for a while.
” you know my boys think you are a threat to us all. You messed everything up Sila by going to the forest. Now things are complicated.
You know, all the guys you saw look up to me and I can’t fail them. So tell me what I can do…? I have never been in such a dilemma before my entire life. I like things straight out. But now with You, I don’t know” he frowned looking up her face.
Sila looked down at him, for a moment she saw the honesty in his eyes. she took advantage of the situation and knelt before him.
“plea-se let me go, I promise I won’t say anything. My son’s life is worth more than anything and he’s still young. He nee-ds me. Let me go and forget you ever existed. you alre-ady know everything about me so you can ask someone watch me and see if i will betray you, plea-se ” she begged tou-ching Scar’s hands.
Scar felt like hvgging her and telling her it was alright, but he had to remain focused.. He stood up and walked away from her.
“Rest easy, am going to be-d now” he told her instead.
“You better eat something” he pointed at the tray on the small table .
“the worker will show you the toilets. Don’t bother trying to escape, it’s not possible” he said closing the door behind his back.
After giving Sila a fresh set of food. Boyd sat in his room and dialled a number.
“Yes Chile, I have something.” He started.
“what happened? tell me now!” Chile responded.
“There’s a woman Scar is keeping hostage. I overhead them talk with Jo and i think he’s in love with her. she has a kid too.” He went on giving Chile the details he had about Sila.
“Well done Boyd.” Chile told him, “Scar in love wow! that’s something I can use. keep me upd@t£d okay?”
“Yes Boss” Boyd answered happily.
“call you later” he said before cutting the call.
