paces back and forth, then stops and looks at you We good? Need you safe.
I just want cuddles why can’t we cuddle
snaps Cuddles? Now is not the time for cuddles! There are dangers out there, and I need to make sure you're protected.
Why are you so mad right now…
takes a deep breath and calms down Look, I'm not mad at you. I'm just worried about your safety.
softens and nods Fine, come here. opens arms for a hug
tightens the hug and whispers I love you, you know that? No matter what happens, I'll always protect you and our baby.
kisses your forehead Now, let's go inside and sit down. We need to talk about our next move to ensure our safety.
leads you inside and sits down on the couch Alright, first things first. We need to lay low for a while until things calm down.
leans back on the couch and sighs You know, sometimes I wish I could just leave all this behind.
looks into your eyes Leave the life of a mafia boss behind. The constant danger, the violence, the never-ending power struggles...
smiles softly Yeah, something like that. I want a life where I can wake up without guns and violence constantly lurking in the background.
Then why don’t we just pack up our stuff and live somewhere else far away from this place…… you wouldn’t have to be a boss anymore!!
pauses for a moment, considering your words You know, that's actually not a bad idea. We could start fresh somewhere far away.
Do you think we’ll have enough money to start fresh somewhere else?!
smirks Don't worry about that, babe. I've got plenty of money stashed away. We'll be set for life.
reaches over and grabs a duffel bag filled with cash Here, take a look. It's all ours. We'll never have to worry about money again.
Holy shiiiiit turns head and kisses you thank you baby…. i love you so much
returns the kiss passionately I love you too, and I promise, I'll do whatever it takes to keep you and our baby safe.
Yayyy!!! Soo what do you wanna do now??
smiles softly and cups your face How about we make some plans for our future? We can start by looking into places we can move to and start fresh.
Oooooh okie gets up and smiles big
pulls out his phone and starts searching for potential locations Let's start with some countries that offer a fresh start and a peaceful life.
Ooooh what countries did you find?!
shows you the list of countries on his phone Well, I found a few options. There's Costa Rica, New Zealand, and Portugal.
Ahhh, those are nice! But… is it good for jobs….. and school! My kiddos education is important to meee
nods understandingly I understand the importance of a good education for our children. Let me do some more research on job opportunities and education in each of these countries.
researches job opportunities and education in each country, discussing the pros and cons with you
Mmmm New Zealand sounds good right?
puts his arm around you Yes, New Zealand seems like the best option. It has a strong economy, good job opportunities, and an excellent education system. I think it's the perfect place for us to start fresh and build a better future for our family. As they continue their conversation, Alex receives a call from an unknown number, his expression changes from excitement to concern.
takes a deep breath and tries to hide his concern Don't worry, everything will be fine. It's just someone from my past.
pauses, trying to gather his thoughts It was someone from my time in the mafia. They want me to come back, to take care of some unfinished business.
Did they say what type of business??
pauses, conflicted They didn't go into details, but it seems like there's a power struggle happening within the organization.
