Revenge And Desire of The Mafia
125. Approaching Ilena

Ilena was stunned after hearing the story of Darla and Mr. Mayor. All this time he did know if the mayor only wanted to be served by Darla only. But Ilena didn't think their relationship would go that far. It was all Darla's decision. As a friend, Ilena had no right to interfere.

Ilena recalled Blue's proposal. According to Ilena, Blue is a good man. Despite her nickname as 'one night man', in front of Ilena even Blue did not demand her to get in touch more.

Now Ilena became a dilemma. Moreover, Red suddenly came and appeared before him after several weeks without his nose.

"Red...?" lirih Ilena looked at Red who was in front of her.

"Isn't it still your practice hours?" ask Red.

"Yes. I take a short break and want to go to the kitchen," replied Ilena.

"Well? A kitchen? Do you always remember that dark alley? Until you always wanted to go there?" cecar Red's.

"Eh? Nah! That's not what I meant..." Ilena tried to explain.

"I just want to get some water to drink" said Ilena, looking down.

"It!" Red thrusts a bottle of water at Ilena.

Ilena looked at Red's hand which was holding a bottle of drinking water.

"Thank you, Red." Ilena received the bottle from Red's hand.

After that Red passed without saying a word to Ilena. Ilena smiled slightly as she got a warmth from a Red.

Ilena returned to the training room with a well-flowered heart. They started training excitedly because tonight was a historic day for Darla.

In the evening, Ilena and her friends look stunning as usual. Applause echoed throughout the room.

Ilena's eyes were fixed on the man who had been staring at her. The man did not move a bit from the figure of Ilena who was moving her body following the music.

The stage is over. The man sauntered away and headed for his study. Who else if not Red. The man with a million mysteries that attracted Ilena.

Red sat in his big chair and stared at Ilena's photos one by one. The photo of the girl obtained from her man.

In the photo, Ilena was playing with the children of the orphanage. A wide smile adorned his beautiful and simple face without the slightest makeup polish.

The Ilena that Red saw was different. He rubbed his face rough.

"How come you're the withering daughter, huh?! Why should you?"

Red asked himself. It seemed that he was beginning to hesitate to begin his act of revenge. What's wrong with Red?"

Back to Ilena and her friends. Darla is currently preparing to join the Mayor, Jose Abraham. The man seriously made Darla as the wife he kept.

Jose Abraham is negotiating with Madam Jane to get Darla out of the place. The compensation required by Madam Jane is no joke.

There are several things that Jose has to fulfill including money. Madam Jane saw Jose's cheque.

Madam Jane knocked on the door and saw the girls hugging each other. Darla hugged her friends one by one.

"Come, Darla. The mayor is waiting for you!" said it.

Darla nodded.

"I'll miss you guys!" Darla wiped her tears. He really did not want to lose friends like them.

"What about your family, Darla? Don't you have to keep sending them money?" ask Ilena who is curious about what Darla's life is like after the mayor married.

Darla smiles. "Mr Jose gave me a cake shop to manage. From there I can still support my family" Darla replied.

Ilena was silent for a moment. It's really lucky to be Darla. Meeting people who love him so much, and giving him a new life. That's what Ilena thought.

If only his life had been as lucky as Darla's. Since childhood no one cared about Ilena's happiness. He must live independently by being a strong child and not giving up easily. Now, I think it was enough to fight. He wants to be able to live with the people who love him. Does anybody?

Ilena and friends drove Darla to the doorstep of the building. They waved as soon as the car carrying Darla sped away from the place.

"Alright, Children! Now there are four of you. So, keep doing your best. Understood?" said Madam Jane.

Blondy looked at each other with Ilena and the others. "Yes, Madame. We will do our best for this club" Blondy replied.

The night is getting late. Ilena still could not close her eyes. He turned his back and saw Darla's empty bed.

"May you always be happy, Darla. May I also have happiness like you.." Inner Ilena.

Ilena woke up and chose to leave the room. He grabbed a drinking bottle that turned out to be toilet. That was Red's gift.

Ilena came out of the room and would refill the bottle. He walked slowly to the kitchen. He didn't want to be caught sneaking into the kitchen.

Ilena filled the bottle with water until it was a little full.

"You always hang around at night, huh?!"

A voice made Ilena jump in shock.

"You!" show Ilena.

For the whole time Ilena was in a situation that made her flutter.

"You thirsty?" ask that person who is Red.

Ilena nodded slowly. "I'm sorry if I always break the rules here. I won't repeat it again."

"Hmm? I will not punish you! Come with me!" take Red by pulling Ilena's hand until the bottle she is holding falls and the water inside spills onto the floor.
