"Do you really think that after what you've done, I'll forgive you?" Charlie screamed at Renee. She cheated on him with another member. He's done it as well so this is a normal argument. Every argument between these two is normal
We were sitting at the table in the main dining room of our three story home. I prefer a country side ranch with land, but with my dad being a mafia boss, bigger is better. I'm getting used this at this point; all this screaming and fighting. I'm just focusing on the steak and potatoes on my plate and ignoring them. I look down at my dress.
My dress is a simple black long sleeve maxi dress. I'd rather wear sweatpants and a shirt but Charlie wants his family to look good by his side, even if we are sitting in our house.
I finish my food and look at my parents. They continue to go back and forth and I get bored easily. So, I pick my spoon off my plate and drop it because if I yell I'll get scolded at. They both stop to look at me.
"May I be excused?" I ask as I grab the napkin from the side of my plate and wipe my face.
"Yes you may." My mother says. I thank her and bid them both goodnights.
"You didn't ask me! Does my opinion not matter?" Charlie yelled at me. I stood up in shock. Well I guess if he is in a bad mood towards mom it is taken out on me as well. Don't have to be a dick, Charlie. "Excuse me, Isabella Marie Salvati?" My face paled. Oh no. I can't believe I said that aloud. No one talks to him that way with the power he has.
"Papa I'm sorry. I didn't mean it." I say and my mind goes haywire. I feel like I'm going to throw up because I'm so scared.
"Puttana ingrate!" He roared. I jumped and tears swam through my eyes. He charges around the table and I walk slowly back. He makes it to me faster than I can walk back in heels. He grabs me by the neck and slams me against the wall. I yelp as I feel a wave of pain radiate through my head as my head hits the wall and I feel bobby pins stab into my scalp. I call out for my mom but she sits there.
"You need to remember who you are talking to, piccola ragazza." He whispers in my ear, venom lacing itself through with every word said. I look into his eyes and see anger glazed over. His normal brown eyes are now dilated to the point that I only see black. He squeezes my neck harder, releases it, and takes a step back. I slump forward and heave. After I catch my breath, I stand up straight and rub my neck with tears running down my face. "Never call me out of my name again Isabella. You will regret it. Understand?" I nod slowly not wanting to cause pain in my neck. His eyes widen and he smacks me so hard that my body turns and falls to the floor because of the force. "Answer me properly!" He screams.
"Yes sir!" I sob out clutching my cheek. I stand up and wipe my face.
"Now leave my sight." I stand up and run to my room on the other side of the house.
