I woke up, did my daily routine which includes my gym session and then getting ready for the day. Now lets proceed to kitchen. When I was entering kitchen, I could hear faint tune of 'Shape of You'..

Oh so Scarlet likes to listen to music and cook.

"Breakfast ready?" I ask loudly so she could hear through the music.

"Gosh. Do you plan on scaring me everyday?"

"No. I dont plan to do that as I have more important things to do."

"Yeah like doing illegal stuff." She smirked.

"What the hell is your problem?" I shouted.

"You. You are my problem. I dont wish to work for a mafia."

"You know what you are stuck with me, Scarlet. And dare you say again about me being a mafia."

She had a no emotion face.

"Now serve me."

She brought plate full of pancakes. She also brought few fruits and black coffee.

"May I leave for the diner?" She asked.

"Dont you have to eat?"

"No. I dont wish to eat with jerk." She yelled.

This girl will be death of me.

I stood up and grab her arm and pushed her to the wall. She was shocked by this. I caged her body to the wall. We were in very close proximity. Her eyes were deep brown. We were so close that we could feel our breaths.

No no no this isnt good Xavier. I did what my brain told me to do. I pushed her away.

"I am your boss. You dont get to yell at me." I calmly yet firmly told her.

"You know what why dont you fire me?"

"I cant because you owe me lot of money."

"I will pay you off."

"How? By your not making profit diner?"

"You are not allowed to make fun of my diner."

"So work for me."

"You know what I am leaving. I dont wish to make my day more unlucky by talking with you."

" Go go. You have to come back here tonight."

"Ugh." She stormed off.

She is really something else.

This guy is so...ugh. I cant even describe him. He annoys me to hell. I am the boss huh?! Like hell. I dont know why even I agreed to this deal. I know he paid off my debts but he is so rude, annoying.

Full day it was very tiring. As it was saturday it was little more crowded than usual. And my assistant chef called in sick today.

Time really flied and it was closing time.

Now I have to go back to jerk's house and cook for him. Lovely! (Note the sarcasm)

I was in bus when my bestie, my only family decides to call me. I happily answer her phone.

"Amelia!!" I say.

"Scarlet! Where on earth are you living?" She yelled.

"I am at your house. The neighbours say you moved yesterday. Where the hell are you? And with whom?" She yelled again

"Okay. Listen to me very carefully."

So I told her whole mafia story.

"Have you lost your freaking mind? Why the fuck did you agree to that jerk? I could help your with your debts. Why him Scar?"

"Lia I didnt want you to burden yourself. You have done enough for me already."

"Oh please Scarlet. Stop with this. I am always there with you."

"I know. I love you."

"Love you too. Now pack your bags I am coming to pick you. I can use my savings to give it to that mafia leader. You are not living with any jerk."

"No no Amelia. Please trust me. I can manage. We will talk daily. Please?"

"Fine but anything you need I am there." She sighed.

"Yes honey. Gotta go. I will call you later."

"Okay. Bye take care." She said and we hung up as my stop came.

I reached Xavier's condo. Maids greeted me. They think that I am some mam or something I dont know why. Well I enjoy it. Little bit.

I asked one of the made whose name was Lucy.

"Is Mr. Romano there?"

"Yeah. He must be in his room."

"Okay. Thanks."

I went to my room. I took long shower and got myself in pink crop top and grey shorts. As I was about to leave for Xavier's room to ask him what he wants to eat, there was a knock on my door.

"Yes come in." I said.

"Hi." It was Xavier.

"Oh hey. I was about to come to you."

"Oh is it? What for?"

"To ask what do you wanna have for dinner?" I said in duh tone.

"Yes I came here to tell you that. Arbaitta pasta would do great."

"Oh its my fav. I will be on it." I smiled.

"Great." He left.

I came to the kitchen. I started my music too. I have this habbit to listen to music while I cook. Amelia always teases me that how do I manage to concentrate on cooking. Because she cant cook with pin drop silence also.

I was complete with my cooking so I decided to proceed to Xavier's room. I have to search for it. God such a big house it is. And he lives alone.

As I was outside his room, I knocked.

He answered come in. So I went in.

Holy shit! His room was heaven. Though it was white fully but it was so beautiful. Aesthetically it was perfect.

"Dinner's ready." I said.

"Yeah. Lets go."
