Innocent Love Of A Deadly Gangster

She slowly picked up the note. It read-

'Good morning, wifey... I have some work so I left early... Wash up and we can go to the Han mansion together...' It had a cute heart emoji at the end.

She stared at the heart as her face lit up with a bright smile. It was the time when she had received something caring, especially since she came back. No one ever informed the reason they were going away from her. Her dad, her sister even her mom left her without telling her the reason...

Thinking about old memories Jessica felt her heart growing heavier. She immediately suppressed her sad memories and got up. She drew the curtains and let the light in then she walked in the bathroom.

She did not wish to go back to her past timid self. When she had traveled abroad she fell into depression and it took her years to get well. She still could not forget that night... No one knew about her depression except those two...

After a long shower, Jessica stepped out of the bathroom and walked to the kitchen. She never knew cooking because she was never allowed to step in the kitchen as she was the pampered young miss. But some circ.u.mstances so happened that she learned to cook for herself as all the dishes tasted awful after her mom who used to coo for her left her.

As she was about to get some eggs from the fridge her eyes fell on a covered plate with an eye-catching note on it. From her distance, the note had the same handwriting.

She walked to the table and picked up the note.

'Eat your breakfast sweety... Don't starve yourself. Warm the food before eating.' It had a smiling emoji at the end.

Her heart filled with warmth. The warmth she had long forgotten. Deep in her heart, she was happy that someone cared but she also had another feeling that was... Fear. She was afraid of losing this happiness and comfort... She was afraid that someone would snatch away her happiness, her joy, and her love. She wanted to protect her love. She had lost enough and now she would fight back if someone had ill intentions towards her loved ones and she carried the power to do so.

She again glanced at the plate before sitting down and revealing the food to eat it. She was engulfed by the appetizing aroma, but the food had turned sligtly cold. Jessica was not in the habit to eat food that was cold or not to her taste even if she was on the verge of fainting due to hunger.

She got up and took the food to re-heat it. Checking the tempreature was up to her choice she walked back to her seat and sat down.

Her kitchen was an open space and had a small dining table fit for two people but more can sit down on the counter. One could be able to see the television in the living room from the kitchen.

Jessica switched on the television and moved to the cartoon channels. No one in paticular would feel bored watching a cartoon series and this applied to any age group. Personally, Jessica was a huge fan of cartoons and she even researched them. There was no such cartoon that she would not have watched.

When she was abroad her friends would joke around her saying she was childish but a few of them would accompany her to watch all the cartoons. It gave off the vibe that they were still young and would never leave their childishness.

Suddenly her phone's screen lit up showing a new notification. She picked up her phone it was a message from Steve. She opened it with a smile.

'Get dressed. I am coming to pick you up.'

After reading the message Jessica got up immediately and rushed in her room to find something to wear. Soon her bed was filled with clothes as she stared at them not able to decide what to wear.
