Carmen
It took a month before I was finally discharged from the hospital.
A month that didn't pass nearly fast enough, especially with all the rumors continuing to spread.
Gang violence.
Most of it centered around Vito's territory.
And no matter how many times Nico denied being involved, I knew better.
Still, I kept my cool and waited until I was released. My body had mostly recovered apart from my left arm, which still rested in a sling.
But the moment I returned to the estate, the first thing I tried to do was speak to Nico about what exactly he was doing and why.
Only to be ignored.
"You're yet to recover. Should you really be asking me these questions?" he asked, making it painfully clear that as far as he was concerned, I was still too weak to do anything except rest.
At first, I tried to let it go.
