Forbidden Friendship

Damian Spinelli and Claudia Zaccarah were two very different people.

Spinelli was computer geek,one of the most brilliant men Claudia Zaccarah had ever met. He could certainly hack into anything and she personally suspected that if he got really pissed off at someone,he could make their lives a living hell with a few taps of the computer keys. Spinelli was always eager to help people,always believed the good in a person,he was a peaceful spirit with a very vibrant language. He was sensitive and kind and hopeful. So much better than the mob life.

Claudia was pretty much the exact opposite. She knew that not everyone had a good side. She understood that more than anyone. Unlike Spinelli,who she thought had many friends---especially female companions,she didn't have many at all. She could count on one hand the friends that she had,the people who cared for her. She was aggressive,rude,opinionated,and pessimistic.

So how was it that two very different people could conjure up a friendship? She guessed,it could have started a little back when they were quarantined together in Jason's penthouse. He'd been nice to her and had tried to get to know her despite her last name,that wasn't something she was used to. Usually people ran away screaming when she said her name. But they had truly developed a full blown friendship a few weeks ago,after he got out of jail for treason. She had given him a warning about how angry Sonny was that Jason had chosen him. It really worried her. Spinelli was her brother's age and Sonny had children of his own. It hurt her to think that her husband would want to hurt someone as sweet as Spinelli. It wasn't Spinelli's fault Jason had chosen him. And what Spinelli had said all those months ago kept rearing it's ugly head. She was sure Jason and Sonny would go to war with one another and one of them would end up dying. She didn't think Spinelli would've ever guessed that he would become such a huge part of it. Jason and Sonny had slowly and surely been becoming enemies. Now the tension had finally risen. Claudia and Spinelli's friendship was kept a secret from everyone---even Johnny,Jason,and Maxie. If Sonny were to find out,he would see it as a betrayal and then her's and Spinelli's lives would be in danger. And they couldn't have that,now could they?
