2024-10-29 19:42:56Wash away beach, Sydney.
The sun gradually set on the horizon of the Pacific Ocean, it's dull orange glow simmered over the water surface and the evening sky, the tourists and beachcomers were scattered over the coastal sands, either packing up to head home or still having fun A huge tidal wave swept over the ocean, rushing towards the beach, everyone who stood on the sands watched in awe as the waves rushed towards them, and on top of it, a young handsome man surfed over the waves. They all cheered and applauded him, increasing his confidence, he let out a wide grin as he tamed the waves, surfing with grace and elegance until of them suddenly washed him off his board while another one rose up and drowned the surfer completely, the crowd that cheered him let out a unanimous gasp, followed by a period of quiet as they waited for him to resurface...which he did The cheers were on again in a celebratory style as the surfer rose out of the water with his board tucked in his left arm, while he threw his right fist to the crowd that cheered him, he shook his head aggressively as his dark brown hair which was usually curly was all soaked and had covered his eyes, he wore a silver necklace with a cross as the pendant, his athletic physique was made even more glorious by his tanned olive skin, he began to step away from the scene and crowd cheered him off. "Angelo!" some one called his name out, Angelo was still brushing off the water in the hair and eyes with his fingers but struggled to look up a bit, it was Walter, his newly found friend here in Australia, his skin was pale white unlike Angelo's and he held his own surfing board in his arm "You had another bath today mate?" he asked with his harsh British accent, Angelo laughed mildly and looked back at the ocean "The waves sure were strong today, it's like the harder I try the more powerful they just become, I lasted a lot longer than usual though..." Angelo paused immediately, he looked back at Walter who was about to laugh "Why do you have to make everything so awkward you asshole" he cursed, Walter laughed hard and Angelo bowed his head embarrassed "You'll get better eventually, spend a little more time here in Sydney and I'll show you the ropes, then you can surf the seas as long as you, wherever you want" Walter patted him on the shoulder, he noticed that Angelo had gone silent "Is there any problem?" he asked, Angelo who had zoned out earlier suddenly seemed to regain his consciousness, "what's on your mind mate?, you looked disturbed" "Nah it's nothing, I just remembered that I have only a few days left to spend in this place" Angelo replied "Why?, you gotta go to work or something?, your dad's a billionaire, it's not like you got a job or anything" "Nope, but I've already made up my mind to visit a new city every three weeks, and if I extend my stay here then I'll mess up my checklist for the year" "Fuck that mate" Walter hissed "you ain't got anything better to do wherever you want to go next, so reserve two spots on the check list for Sydney, where is your next location supposed to be anyway?" "Bali" Angelo replied "See?..., it's literally just the same as Sydney, nothing to do but visit another beach, push it forward or something and stay here, and I'm gonna make you a master of the tides buddy" he patted Angelo's shoulder "I guess you're right" Angelo concluded as he watched the sun set further, "I'm kinda hungry, what was that restaurant you talked about this afternoon?" "Oh it's uhh..." "Angelo Rocco Salvador" The two young men turned around slowly as a husky Latino voice recited Angelo's full name. They saw three men dressed in black suits and dark sunglasses, two very huge men stood behind, most likely body guards while a shorter guy stood ahead of them "Who the hell are these guys" Walter asked, his agitated face turned into confusion as he saw Angelo stare at the three men, his eyes wide open and his body was frozen The shorter man who called his name earlier stepped towards Angelo and Walter, he carried a scroll in his hands and handed it over to Angelo with a bow "Your father sent us to deliver this message for you, young master". Angelo and Walter glanced at each other before he took the scroll and began to open it, Walter wondered what kind of society he must be tangled with, using ancient style scrolls to send message rather than just sending a text or something. Angelo read the contents of the scroll, only murmuring a few words as he did, Walter tried to peep into it with a side eye. Angelo slowly folded the scroll and handed it back to the men in black "Are we permitted to leave young master" "Yeah sure, of course" he replied sharply and turned to Walter. The men bowed again and began to walk away "Hey what was that about?" Walter asked anxiously, Angelo was silent, he let out a sigh and blinked slowly, "My father...my father is dying" Walter glanced at the ground and back at Angelo, not knowing what to do or say next, this was probably the most random turn of events in a day that he had ever seen in his life, he cleared his throat in an attempt to break the silence but Angelo still didn't say anything "So what are you gonna do now?" Angelo clenched his fist and squinted his eyes, "I have to go home, as soon as I can" "Whoa is it that urgent?, how bad is it?" Walter looked very disturbed at this point "I don't know for sure, I just have to see him myself" Angelo began to walk away, his surfboard still tucked in his arm "Hey, Rocco..." Angelo stopped and turned to Walter, "If you ever need my help again you can always call" "Rocco?" Angelo asked, Walter smirked and both of them laughed it off, Angelo continued to walk off, his cheerful face vanished immediately he turned to keep going, he knew the implications of this news that had just arrived, he was the first son of the Great Salvador family, and if the situation was as bad as the news presented, then a great deal of duty and drama was about to unfold.

Palermo Falcone Airport, Sicily Angelo stared out the window as his private jet touched down on the airport runway, it was the first time in so many years that he'd be stepping foot on Italian soil, his homeland, the place he was born, and he didn't know how to feel at the moment, so many memories in this city, some of them good, most of them not so pleasant He could still remember the day his mother died and how close he was to joining her on that bloody afternoon, she had come to pick him up from the mansion where he was being home schooled, which he did because his father knew how dangerous it would be to let him school in the public. His mother was escorted by two black cars stacked with body guards as expected, and these were the kind of sights that Angelo grew up to experience everyday. An enemy of his father who had perfectly prepared their ambush attacked the three vehicles containing himself, his mother and all the guards, and they were all murdered that day as nearly

Angelo Salvador calmly walked into the large room, all eyes were fixed him as he went, the three body guards who had been following him the whole time made sure that there was space between him and the crowd as they walked by him at both sides while the other one marched in behind him, the first son and heir of the family had arrived and his entrance alone had already made a statement. He walked up to his step mother Lucia and her sons, his half brothers, who were having a conversation with Mr Silva and his wife Juana, their distant relatives from spain, the couple were happy to see him of course but Lucia and his brothers were cold and startled, it had been almost a decade since any of them set eyes on him, the last time was when he left to the US to study in college, but dropped out of the institution and never set foot home again or called any of them. A lot of parties, events and gatherings just like this one today had been held during this period, so many family members and gue

Bonucci Salvador stood over the crowd which had filled up his mansion, he looked down to his two sons who had been engaged in a heated brawl just a few seconds earlier, body guards and bouncers quickly rushed into the scene only to see that the fight was already over. Gio and Angelo patiently waited for their father to speak "Giovanni Andreas Salvador, so this is how you welcome your elder brother home, by disgracing our family in front of the whole world right?." Lucia held on to Marcel tightly, she was very frightened once she realized that Bonucci was vexed at Giovanni instead of Angelo, her plan had badly backfired "Honour, respect and loyalty, these are the three things our family pride ourselves in the most, but you've broken them all today by displaying such shameful behavior Giovanni, and I used to think that you were smart..." "Father I..." "Utter another word and today will be the last day you'd have a tongue, by challenging your elder brother you have proven to me

"What is this?, what is going on here?" That was all Angelo could think about as the beautiful young girl who was meant to be his bride stepped in front of him, along with her very dangerous looking father Herrera scanned Angelo from his head to his feet, he was still looking pretty rough due to the brief fight he had with his brother "What happened to you boy?, who shows up to a ceremony looking like this?" Angelo felt stiff after hearing Herrera's husky voice for the first time, but more so because he didn't know how to answer that question "Well...I..." "My son confronted some drunkard who tried to ruin this party and put him in his place, I apologize if you do not find his appearance pleasant, let us focus rather on the reason for this event my comrade" Bonucci stepped in for Angelo and pulled him gently so that he could be closer to Loretta, then he made both of them face the crowd "Mom, did you know about this?" Marcel asked Lucia, who still had disbelief all over

Angelo sat on the bed of a hotel that he'd booked last night after the whole drama, he looked out the window as he watched the sun rise, it was beautiful as it slowly lit up the sky, his head was flooded with thoughts, he began to feel like he might have made a mistake, he checked all of his bank accounts, they were frozen, his father acted very fast, and this was just phase one, he sighed in disappointment and bowed his head. Confusion, distress, pain, we was going through all sorts of emotions, and all he had left was some cash in his luggage, which wouldn't be enough for him to live on for a month. He had made up his mind to not go back to that house, but he badly needed to leave this city, this country all together, he didn't have enough money for that, and he definitely wasn't dumb enough to involve the police into this situation, because to be honest, he had every right to sue his family, but that would only make things even worse for him. Angelo was about to fall asleep when

Angelo and Sophia were still talking and having laughs at the table in the Ginger lady cafeteria, Sophia was doing most of the talking while Angelo just sat back and watched her go, his 'conversation starter' turned out to be very effective eventually, "Yeah, there was this other lady who just stormed in here a few weeks ago, she was like, really mad and angry, she brought a freaking baseball bat with her and just went berserk, she was screaming and cursing everyone, swinging her bat around like she wanted to destroy everything and everyone in this cafe" "Really?, why?" Angelo asked, he seemed to be fully immersed in the gist "She was saying something about her husband having an affair with someone who works here, which I found funny cuz she was like, really old, she was so old her arms looked like they were about to fall off her shoulders everytime she swung the bat, and it was almost half her height" Angelo laughed briefly and so did Sophia, she picked a cup which was on th

Back at the "Red Hot wings" restaurant, a blue Lamborghini Urus drove recklessly into the parking lot, almost hitting an old man who cursed at the vehicle and whoever was driving it, the car moved into one of the parking spots and stopped, the vehicle registration plate didn't have the standard figures and letters you'd see on almost any other car, instead it just read "GOODMAN", the front door of the driver's seat slowly opened up and the loud punk music which was being played in the car was now audible to the public, a young man stepped out of the car, he had shiny black hair which was parted at the middle with a very clean undercut, he wore a white polo T shirt and Gucci shorts and had a pair of Jordans on his feet, he had a Richard Mille's watch on his left wrist and some bracelets on his right, a silver chain dangled on his neck and dark shaded glasses covered his eyes, his chin was chiseled and completely beardless, he sipped some latte out of a Starbucks cup as he bounced into

Angelo walked out of the manager's office with the application form and a brown envelope he borrowed from there, he gently slid the form into it "How did it go?" Angelo turned and saw Kelly smiling, she and the other waiters seemed to be less busy "It was good, I'll be back tomorrow" he answered and smiled back at her, the both of them waved each other goodbye as he stepped out of the door and left the establishment, he looked back to the large neon signboard above the entrance, "Red Hot wings" he chuckled and continued going Today was an especially sunny spring afternoon, Angelo sat on a bench at a park as he munched down on a burger which was supposed to be his lunch and scrolled through his phone, he had just taken passport photographs earlier for his application form and the interview finale which was scheduled for the next day, it was just a fastfood job yet they made everything seem so formal, or maybe that was how all jobs were and he just never knew because he had nev

Angelo walked around town all afternoon searching for a good place to work for the meantime, the city was bustling with people and roadside businesses, the honks of cars and public vehicles as well, Angelo paid close attention to the vendors by the road side, Ice cream, hotdogs, jam, peanut butter and other kinds of groceries, they sold all kinds of stuff, he wondered if he could just do that, all he needed was a little capital to start and a good spot, he thought about the idea for a while until he came to a conclusion; "Nah..." He came across a restaurant that had a post of job vacancy, "Red Hot Wings?" he thought as he read the name of the restaurant which was brightly displayed by a large neon signboard above the entrance, "I guess we could start from here" he said to himself, he opened the glass doors of the establishment and observed the place, the place was filled with customers, which really surprised Angelo as there was a lot of competition in this area, which meant that

'BEEP!! BEEP!! BEEP!!!' Angelo's alarm clock blared loudly and harshly, almost like it was yelling at him to stand up and do something with his life, Angelo sighed disappointedly, "It's morning already" he thought. Every day felt the same to him now, it had been almost a week since that lovely Easter gathering with Walter, his family and Sophia, he rose his back from the bed and took a sitting position, he had only shorts on, his hair was rough and untidy, his eyes were gloomy, he looked around his tiny apartment, asking himself the same question that he did every morning for the past several days; "Is this my life now?" 'BEEP!!, BEEP!!, BEE...!!!' Angelo slammed the digital clock and shut it off instantly, he sighed and rubbed his face, he heard a notification from his phone and picked it up, it was a text from Sophia "Hi, how are you doing?", Angelo read it in his head with her voice, he looked at the mirror across his bed, his reflection helped him to answer Sophia's quest

Sicily, 6:00 PM Three black Roles Royce limousines arrived at a mansion that belonged to the Salvador family, this was just one of their many houses here in Sicily alone, it wasn't as big as the Paradiso which was their main family residence, but it was just as elegant. Several bodyguards stepped out of each car, all of them dressed in the customary black suits and dark sunglasses, they arranged themselves at both sides of the cars waiting for their master to step out. Bonucci Salvador rose from the second limousine which was in the middle, he looked around himself to see the environment while his guards shut the door of the car, he walked forward towards the entrance of the mansion and his guards marched behind him, two stayed behind for surveillance and two guards were already stationed at the large golden doors of the mansion before Bonucci even arrived, as he entered into the house, sixteen maids who were all of the same height and body size were arranged on both sides of the wa
