"The love behind Violence"

Chapter 1-"Watch your back"

Today's morning was a tough one. Tom showed up paralysed with fear. I don't know why, but he wouldn't tell. Each day that passes we talk less. These mobsters are making our life a nightmare and I can't see the end of it.

Trying to forget all this shit, I went out with Sarah. Oh my God, my little girl was so naïve about this entire story. She didn't understand…of course, she is only five years old, but Jack was different, unfortunately. He understood everything, and it was distressing him.

All my hopes about having a calm afternoon were gone when Sarah disappeared. I called for her but she didn't showed up, instead I saw those friezing eyes looking to me. He was in the middle of the shop, like he as waiting for me, it was the guy from the diner that called Tom by Joey.

"My daughter, where is she?" I asked him

"Nothing to worry about, Mrs Stall, I've been watching over her." He answered with sarcasm

"Who are you?"

"I'm an old friend of your husband"

"I don't believe you"-or maybe I didn't want to

"Why don't you ask Tom…ask him. How come he's so good at killing people?" he said like he was devil himself.

He then pointed out "There she is!" he said, "Sarah is over there!"

I was surprised that he knew the name of my daughter, but didn't give a shit and walked away.

"Watch your back, Mrs Stall"

"Why?" I asked with both curiosity and sarcasm

"Because when I want something, I get it"

"I don't know what you want and I don't really care"

"You should care about what I want, because what I want might change your life" the conversation ended there; I just wanted to hold my daughter.

While we were leaving the shop I could still fell his eyes on my back, "watch your back, Mrs Stall" he had said, what in the hell does he think about coming all the way here just to destroy my family…maybe Tom had done something really bad…

Since then I started doubting my husband.

I arrived home exhausted, just to find Tom sounded asleep in the couch…he looked so peaceful, like nothing had happened.

I missed those normal days without reporters, mobsters…

I said to Sarah to go upstairs, Tom and I needed to talk.
