"What the fuck are you doing here Florina... Do you know what you have done, do you have any idea how much trouble you are in..."
Florina threw herself in the arms of that person.
"I don't know what to do Jenny... I am scared, everyone Is involved... They will kill me..."
Jenny was her best friend in the office.
"I know... I know..."
Jenny rubbed her back.
"Listen Florina... You need to go underground for few days. Russian mafia wants you dead at any cost and no one is here to support you. I can't do much darling I have a family..."
Florina nodded her head.
"I know... I don't want you to get in trouble because of me..."
Jenny took out a card from her pocket.
"Take this... It's my apartment in NewYork. My mom used to stay there but now it's vacant. Hide there for some time away from this town. It will be difficult for them to track you down in a big city..."
"Oh my god... Thank you so much Jenny. Thank you so much..."
Florina cried hugging her tightly.
"Why did you have to get yourself in such a big trouble darling... But I am proud of you for what you did, go now... Hurry up..."
Jenny pushed her towards the exit door.
Florina smiled at her and wiped her tears.
"Yeah girl power..."
Jenny wiped her tears too.
"Yeah Girl power... Stupid brave girl..." she said smiling with tears when she saw her running away.

Florina reached her house quickly hiding herself under her black hoodie. Her house was a nice two story house which her parents made with so much love but unfortunately she lost them in an accident. Florina being a single child was left alone after their death at the age of seventeen.
It was hard to manage everything in the beginning but her father was prepared for the future. He had left a beautiful house and all his savings for Florina so did her mother.
Her father was a news reporter too and she wanted to became like him so she persuaded her dream and achieved success by her talent inherited to her from her father.
She transferred all the data into a pendrive with all the video clips and pictures she clicked. The pendrive was in the form of a pendant so no one could guess it was pendrive. She quickly wore it around her neck as a beautiful pastel color necklace and started packing since they could reach at her house any moment now to get her.
Packing all her necessary belongings in the bagpack she head towards the door but her heart skipped a bit when she saw few men in front of her house. Those men wore black clothes and she was smart enough to know who they were.
'Russian mafia...'
She didn't wait for a second and ran outside from the back door. Luckily no one was there yet.
She climbed and jumped down the compound and hurriedly went towards their towns railway station.
The guards broke in her house and destroyed all the things. They checked her house but didn't found any evidence.
"We are so dead... Where the fuck is that girl..."
The man kicked the small table in front of him.
"How did she manage to escape everytime..."

Florina sighed in relief once she was safely in the train. No one was following her and she didn't find anyone suspicious in the train too.
"Hii... Want some..."
The boy beside her asked. He looked younger than her, around 22 years old. Florina looked at him and the beer can in his hand that he was offering.
She was thirsty and with all these messy situation she didn't got the chance to eat anything or pack something for the journey.
"Thank you so much... I will pay__"
"Ohh come on... Don't be so formal you know. Just give me some beauty tips and that will be all..."
He waved his perfectly manicured hand in the air and winked at her.
Florina looked at her hands and then his, his was much more beautiful and well pampered.
"I am cherry by the way... And what you are thinking is right, I am gay..."
He giggled.
"You are beautiful..."
She said looking at him.
"Shut up I like hot men... You are nowhere in line..."
He gave her a bitchy look and she laughed along with him.
"So are you a tourist..."
He asked sipping his beer.
"No it was my town but I am moving out to New York..."
She sighed and took a big gulp from the can.
"Ohh... Did something happen, some tragedy maybe..."
"It's actually a bit like a film but I don't really wanna talk about it... Life of a news reporter sucks... Seriously !..."
She huffed.
"Wow... Are you really a news reporter, girl I seriously need one in my media house right now... I mean where I work, so if you are free then can you join there. I'll also get some commission in that way. Actually our media house is new and we need some cool staff right now..."
He blabbered in excitement.
Florina was on the run. She was definitely short on money and had a limited to no reach to her account. Maybe mafia was tracking it and she can't risk it. It was her best chance, she can earn some money and the media house is new means it won't be any problem for her to hide.
"Really I would love too... Oh my god cherry you are such an angel. You saved my life..."
She hugged him in excitement.
"Hey girl you are ruining my branded shirt and I am doing it for the commission by the way..."
Cherry said in a bitchy voice.
Florina grinned.
"Thank you..."
And he smiled.
"Okay so give me some spicy gossip... Do you have a hot boyfriend..."
Cherry finished his beer and so did Florina.
"Yeah but bastard cheated on me..."
She took another can from him.
"Ohh sorry..."
He gave her an apologizing smile.
"Don't be... I don't regret ending it... He was no good anyway..."
She said finishing the can in one gulp.
"Not good as in..."
Cherry asked wiggling his eyebrows.
"It's bad manners... Even if he is my ex now, I shouldn't bitch about him..."
She answered.
"You weren't satisfied... Were you?..."
Cherry said grinning.
Florina looked at him surprised.
"How did___"
Cherry waved his hand boringly.
"Oh come on... that's the main reason for most of the breakups and divorce. But I can't blame you, girls has needs... What's your type by the way..."
Florina thought for a second.
"Umm... I don't know, but I want a man who knows what he is doing in bed. He should know how to handle his partner. Are you getting me..."
Cherry smirked.
"You want someone dominant..."
"You mean Christian gray type..."
Her eyes widened.
Cherry's smirk widened.
"NO Massimo Torricelli type... He is such a daddy material..."
He was fangirling.
"365 days... Well that's hot, but it's just a movie. No man is like him in real life..."
She said leaning back in her seat lazily.
'And I think I have enough mafia problem in my life right now'
Cherry huffed.
"Yeah can't agree more... But hey don't loose hope maybe you will find some daddy who will fulfill all your dark fantasies... Come on you have a body of a sex goddess..."
"Wish me luck..."
They cheered on that even though Florina's can was empty.
She rested back in her seat.
'My life became a mess in just one night... Can't think what NewYork has in store for me now...'
