Amanda pulled down her gown which had ridden up, she looked down at her hands which were trembling slightly, she had just gotten this new job and this was her first order, it needed to be perfect.
Taking her feel breathe, she tried to put herself under control, once her hands had reduced it shakiness she grabbed the tray containing the food and walked out of the kitchen.
"Tessy, who am I giving this too?" She asked the red haired behind the counter who was looking at her phone.
"Uh... Table six." Tessy told her without raising her head up. With a sigh Amanda walked towards the table which a young man was sitting down in.
"Here's your order sir," She dropped it on the table before him."I hope it's to your satisfa-"
"You have got to be kidding me!" The man exclaimed, dropping his magazine and slamming his head.
"Pardon sir?"
He looked up at her."Seriously,
"We should go to the police," Alex finally said after silence had reigned for few minutes."No, not the police, they have my brother," Amanda said. "I am not going to put his life at risk."Alex sighed. "Well, what do you suggest then, those people don't look like they would stop looking for us anytime. Also..."She looked at him. "Also?""Well, if you're not the Amanda that stole from him, and the one I met earlier wasn't the one that stole from him then-""How do you know she's not the one? I know I am not the one, and if it isn't me, then that's leaves her.""She isn't the one, she can't be," Alex found himself saying."Why are you defending her? Isn't she the same person you said stole from you? If she's a thief, what stops her from being a liar?"Alex didn't speak after that."We need to find her, my brother's life is on deck a
"Oh, Las Vegas is the life!" Amanda gave a big whoop, a big grin on her face. She had just cheated some men off their money in a game, and as usual, underestimating the power of a young woman, they were too stupid to notice that she cheated. She was interrupted from her happy thought by a vibration then chime that came from her phone. With a sigh, she pulled it out, it was probably the guys worrying over her as usual. They acted all tough because of how big they were but deep down, they were just cuddly bears, she giggled at that thought.Opening her phone she saw it wasn't from the guys like she had expected, it was from that stupid dating app she had join about a month ago. She hadn't dated for awhile and since the guys scared off any guy that came close to her, she decided to try online dating, and that's where she had met Alex. The reason she had texted him was because he was really cute and he had been on a yatch that she suspected was his, but Alex turned out
Don Torento raised an eyebrow, Amanda looked away from him quickly, she wanted to slam her palm on her forehead for saying something stupid. Don Torento was looking at her like he wanted to tear her limbs to limbs, she gulped. "S—sorry, I say stupid things sometimes.""Really?" He gave a wicked smile. "Well, you also happen to do stupid things too, lots and lots of stupid things." He stood up, making Amanda to lean back in her chair when she thought he was coming to her, but he turned around and walked to the window. "Stealing from me," he gave a low laugh. "You've got some gut girl, I would give you that. But it's also your gut that would get you killled." Amanda froze as the last words left his mouth. He turned around and walked away from the window, he walked over to the seat he was in and sat down.Amanda didn't know much, but she knew she didn't want to die, she wasn't ready to die, she was just twenty five, she still had many more years to go
Amanda clicked her tongue, staring at the young man right in front of her. "You know, for someone as cute as you, it sucks that you are out of your head."He raised an eyebrow, his face spelling out confusion. He sighed and shook his head. "Would you just untie me Amanda, I have an itch and I can't scratch it," He said."Fine!" She stood up. "But if you try anything funny, I am not weak, I will burst your balls." She sent him a warning look."My balls? Why would you try to destroy a man by bursting his balls?" He asked in disbelief."What's a man without his balls," She murmured and went behind the young man. She reached down and worked her fingers through the rope tying him."So," He said as she untied him. "Are you ready to tell me what happened after I was taken?""I don't know what you're talking about psycho, if this is an act they told you to put up to
"There has to be another way out of here," Amanda said while searching around."If there was a way out of here they wouldn't have left you unchained and even if there was, it should be blocked, those men are evil, not stupid." Just as the last word left his mouth, they heard a clanking noise."What's that?" Amanda asked alarmed."Someone is coming," Jerry told her. Quickly she rushed back to the place she was seated. They heard chains being pulled back and locks and bolts too. Just how many locks do that door have? Amanda wondered.Finally the noise stopped and what came next was the creaking sound of the door being opened, Amanda turned around to see who had entered, her eyes widened when she saw it was Don Torento, she looked back at Jerry who was groaning at the injuries from the beatens he had received.Torento looked down at her from the top of the stairs, two of his men were behind him. One of
"Move it!" Terry barked, Josh and Alex walking few feets before him, hands in the air, while he pointed a gun at their backs. "Boss would be so glad to see you Torento, we've got Amanda already, you're like dessert.""What am I?" Alex murmured under his breath. "I want to be something."Terry led them into the house, Alex looked round at the faces of the people in the living room. They stopped what they were doing immediately they saw Terry walk in with the two men."Welcome our new friends!" Terry announced in a loud voice."Josh?" One of them said then laughed. "Where did you find him hiding Terry?""Oh, I didn't find him hiding, in fact, he came right here."Josh rolled his eyes. "If you're going to kill us then just do it right away.""Woah, woah, hold on a minute," Alex said shooting Josh a look, then looking at Terry he gave a small laugh. "He doesn't me
"So you're saying Alex and Jude-""Josh.""Right... that guy, so they went back to go get us, but since Psycho and I already escaped...""What should we do?"Amanda slammed her palm on her forehead. "Call your boyfriend Jake and tell him to abort the mission.""Right!""What if they already have them?""Stop talking!" Amanda snapped. "This whole thing is creeping me out and hearing me talk and knowing it's not actually me talking is not helping the situation.""Fine," Amanda muttered. "Come on Jerry, let's go home.""What? You can't leave.""I have no business here again, and I have a job and a town I need to get back too.""Josh didn't want to help, and from what I understand you were the one that dragged the Alex dude over here, all to help your best friend. Now that you have him back you are just
Torento was still missing, the police had been on the lookout, but it seemed he had gone out of this earth. His picture had been placed everywhere around town saying he was wanted. His house was watched for weeks, but there was no sign of him, no one has heard anything from him for two weeks now.Everyone's life seemed to be going well. The chef, who now goes by Elena, moved out of town with her best friend Jerry, to stay away from all the drama and because of the new job she got. Josh and Rebecca finally moved to Florida, living their dream life. Amanda and her brothers went back to their 'business'. While Alex... Alex was nearly fired, but with after begging, Ross moved him down to the commentary section, where he would be working for two months. He had called the story Alex had given for excuse, load of bullshit. It actually was load of bullshit, since Alex wasn't a good liar. He still sucked at softball and Stacie had suggested he took lessons because their loss
