Chapter 5 The Monster He Is Part 2

  • Roberto sat in the bath tub, he carried his apple iPad in his hands and went on social media with his anonymous handles.
  • He saw numerous news feeds on his social pages and it looked like what had gone down at the bar.
  • He clicked on one of the videos and began to watch it. His face was with no expression and he watched like he was watching the news.
  • He went through the comments and saw how people called her stupid for standing against him.
  • “Correct.” He thought.
  • “If he lets this girl go scot free then maybe he is a changed person and he is becoming soft. Because no one has ever done this and went scot free.” Roberto read someone’s comment and he furrowed his brows.
  • There were replies under this particular comment and he opened it to read it.
  • “What do you mean changed person? Roberto Galante can never change, he is heartless and inhumane.” Someone else commented.
  • “What if he is shocked because she stood up to him? Remember this is the first female saying no to him. The rest of them always fall to his feet as soon as he stands.He is a monster! It’s nothing to be proud of.” Another reply came in.
  • “I am so proud of her, you can say all you want but that asshole deserves someone to tell him he isn’t always right.” He read and he went off social media after.
  • “I should do something about her.” He thought and then waved the idea off his mind.
  • “If I do something, then it means I am pushed by what the crowd say and I am not moved by what anyone says. I do what I want to do.” He thought and got out of the tub.
  • He walked into the room and cleaned his body with his towel. He rubbed the water on his hair off with his towel, and laid on the bed.
  • As soon as he laid on the bed, he shut his eyes and began to think. The next person on his killing list was in his head already.
  • “Lorenzo Ferrari… Asshole!” He yelled in his head thinking of a better way to get back at him other than killing him right away.
  • “That would be too easy.” He muttered and opened his eyes again.
  • He sat up and reached for his phone, he put a call across to him assistant and waited for him to pick up.
  • “Mr. Roberto.” Vincenzo his assistant said in a cranky voice.
  • “What’s wrong?” Roberto asked in a hoarse voice.
  • “Some staffs got on my nerves, but it’s no problem Mr. Roberto.” Vincenzo responded.
  • “You are yet to get back to me on that bastard Lorenzo Ferrari. We need to meet up.” Roberto told.
  • “Tomorrow?” Vincenzo asked.
  • “Tomorrow it is. We’d see you before lunch, the normal time and place.” Roberto uttered and hung up the call.
  • He threw the phone across the room and it hit the wall making it shatter into pieces.
  • He pressed on the bell next to his bed and in the next few seconds, two of hid men were at the door already.
  • “Come in, pick it up and dispose it.” Roberto ordered and one of them came in.
  • He picked up the phone and headed out of the room. As soon as he got out, he removed the SIM card and threw it in his mouth.
  • “Do you have to do that every-time? You can just break it into pieces with something, not necessarily your mouth.” Bruno said to his colleague and Greco.
  • “You can’t understand why I love chewing these, I don’t know why I love doing that so much.” Greco stated.
  • “You have chewed more than 50 of that, if I’m not mistaken.” Bruno responded.
  • “You can’t blame me, he never stops breaking and ruining the phones.” Greco said and Bruno scoffed.
  • “Whatever.” Bruno muttered.
  • “Have you thought of something?” Bruno asked after some minutes of silence.
  • “What?” Greco asked.
  • “Have you ever thought one day the boss would talk to us? Not just order us around? But talk talk…” Bruno stated and Greco laughed sarcastically.
  • “What does he want to talk to us about? We are here to do what he says not help me ruminate over his problems. The earlier you realize this, the better.” Greco told and Bruno sighed.
  • “I have always kept my hopes up, thinking for us to have worked with his for years, I mean we are the eldest workers here, he could at least tell us about all these things. How these things work.” Bruno uttered.
  • “Come off it brother. It’s never going to happen, get used to that. Focus on your job, your girlfriend and you will be alright.” Greco told.
  • “Hmmm… speaking of girlfriend, when do you plan one having one? You are 30 already Greco.” Bruno said looking at him.
  • “Very soon, I have had my eyes on someone for some months now. I’m just looking for the right time to tell him.” Greco said and Bruno furrowed his brows.
  • “Tell him?” He asked and he sighed nodding.
  • “Yes, it’s a man.” Greco responded and Bruno’s eyes widened. After years of them working together, Bruno couldn’t believe his eyes and ears.
  • “You are gay?” He asked and Greco shook his head.
  • “Bi…” He responded and Bruno stared at him for a while before nodding reluctantly.
