"I was going to ask you the squestion, Alessandro," Matteo shot back. "I thought you had work here for only two days. Now it's been more than a week and you're still here." "My work requiresto stay longer," Alessandro replied indifferently as he headed to his room, with Matteo following closely behind.
"Con, Alessandro. Look at yourself. What happened to the ruthless mafia king? You look like shit," Matteo said, wincing as Alessandro glared at him murderously through the mirror while taking off his tie.
"Look, I'm worried about you. You haven't eaten anything in a week, and you haven't even taken a bath," Matteo sighed, holding up his hands in surrender before the mafia king could pull out his gun and shoot him dead. "How long are you going to keep going like this, huh?" he asked, his tone laced with frustration.
"I am fine, Matteo. Leavealone. I don't need anyone," Alessandro growled as he went to his walk-in closet to change into comfortable sweatpants and a shirt.

With determination bubbling in his head, Matteo strode toward his friend with anger and snatched the glass of scotch from his hands. "I won't let you do this to yourself, even if you kill me," he announced firmly.
"What's your fucking problem?" Alessandro snarled, making Matteo tremble slightly, but he held his ground. "You. You are my problem, and I can't see you like this," Matteo told him, his eyes filled with concern and emotion.

Alessandro let out a heavy breath as he poured himself another drink, planning to drink until he passed out because he couldn't sleep without it. But even after consuming many drinks, which he lost count of, he couldn't forget about the reality and the pain and emptiness in his heart. He quickly grabbed his jacket, throwing it over his shoulder, and instructed his driver. to bring the car around as he descended to the parking lot of his apartment building.
After a while, he found himself standing before Mia Peterson's apartment building, staring hopelessly at her window. Her room was dark, and it seemed she would be asleep at this late hour of the night.
