New godfather

Zayn

I woke up with a really bad headache, my hangover is killing me, my head feels like it's going to explode. I checked the time,

it's already 9 o'clock. Damn, I've never woken up this late before! Since I started training at 15, today is the first day I woke up at 9 Am . I always wake up at 4 AM.

I called out to Judy,

'Judyyyy, where is my coffeeee?'

Judy entered the room with a big smile. I've known Judy since childhood; she came to this house with Mom after the wedding. Judy is in her late 50s, with white-grey hair, a warm baked cake smell, and a motherly smile.

Good morning, Godfather, she greeted me.

I gave her a blank stare and said, Judy, you're not going to call me Godfather. Please, call me by my name.

No, no, how could I? From today, you are our new Godfather. I'm just a servant, how can I address you by your name?

"Judy," I gave her a tight, sad smile and said, "You're not just an ordinary maid here. You're like my nanny, understand?

She gave me a motherly smile again and said, Okay, okay," as she walked out of the room.

Well, last night, I finally took over the throne. Now, I'm the new Godfather, the new lord of the Italian mafia.

For the last 14 years, the training I had been going through finally ended yesterday. Dad had wanted me to take over the throne for a long time, but I didn't want to. As long as Dad was healthy, it was better for him to handle everything. I didn't want the power in my hands. We had decided that until I turned 30, Dad would manage everything, but

After the drama with Rico, I can't stop now. I need to save those girls at any cost. And if Rico doesn't stop, there will be a war with the Russian mafia. I won't let Dad get involved in a war at his age.

And if Dad finds out that I'm planning a war with the Russians, he won't let me fight directly.

Dad and I have very different approaches. Dad likes to handle everything over dinner conversations, sipping red wine, while I'm the complete opposite. I handle things in my own way, which Dad doesn't particularly like.

I know dad is a concern for me, but these dogs don't deserve any attention until they're taught a lesson.

When Luca told me about girls at the Christmas party, I had already decided that I was going to take over. The next day, when I brought it up at the breakfast table, Mom and Dad were surprised.

Mom had already suspected that I was planning something, and she asked, 'Why now? All of a sudden?'

What are you planning to do? Mom asked, but before I could answer, Dad's excitement couldn't be contained.

Dad said, Forget about it. He was going to become the Godfather in a few months anyway. It's better he does it now—I'll get a break sooner.

Mom was still glaring at me, so I just gave her my sweetest smile.

But Dad was happy. He said, 'Great, now both of us will be free. We can relax and let the work be taken care of. Let's go on a honeymoon— you always tease me about not taking you on one, so let's go now. And maybe we can plan for a baby too. It would be nice to have another child, don't you think, Zayn?'

I was drinking coffee, and after hearing Dad's words, I was so shocked that the coffee went straight down my windpipe, and I started coughing. I was laughing while coughing at the same time.

Yes, why not? Whatever you both think is best.

Mom said, 'Have some shame. You say anything. Tell your son to get a girlfriend first; he's already 29.'

I just made a blank face after hearing her and walked away.

For the last 9 days, I was so busy with preparations that I didn't even have time to breathe. Last night, everything was finalized, and Dad announced me as the new Godfather before resigning.

The reason I woke up late this morning was that I went to bed at 3 AM. With so many people and associates, I knew Dad used to handle all this, but to be honest, managing everyone at once and dealing with their boring conversations was getting on my nerves.

Since last night, the wishes from people haven't stopped. The only conclusion I could draw from their conversations was that everyone just wanted to be on my good side.

Many have offered their daughters to me because I'm now on the throne, and a mafia queen is expected. But I haven't thought about it at all. Honestly, I won't be getting married. My mom was the mafia queen, and no other queen will be coming after her.

I had my coffee, did my morning routine, and got ready in my new Armani suit.

I went to the main living room, where everyone was running around. Some were doing this, and others were doing that. When I went to the kitchen, Mom and Dad weren't there.

I couldn't understand what was going on. I saw Mom coming in, with Dad following closely behind. Looking at Dad now, no one could say he's the ex-Godfather of the Italian mafia. In this home, Dad is all sweet and caring as a husband.

Mom saw me and gave me a tight hug, saying, 'My little boy.'

I responded, 'Mom, I'm not little anymore.'

She laughed and said, 'I know, my Godfather. You're all grown up now, but you'll always be my little baby.'

I made a face and asked, 'Why is everyone in such a hurry? What did Dad do this morning to piss you off?'

Dad, upon hearing this, pulled Mom away from me and said, 'Don't fill her ears with nonsense; I did nothing wrong, right, honey? And we're going on our honeymoon now.'

Oh, that's good, that's good. Enjoy your trip and don't miss me too much. But, Mom, what's there to be angry about? Go ahead, you'll get some fresh air and it'll be good for you. Besides, you always complain that Dad spends more time at the office than with you.

Mom, rolling her eyes, said, Zayn, don't just take Dad's side. He hasn't told me anything, and now he's saying we're going on a honeymoon. I haven't prepared anything, and who will take care of my babies for the next two months? And you're becoming the new Godfather today—how can we just leave you alone?

Dad said, "He's not a child. And can't i even get some time with my wife? Two months will go by just like that.

Two months for a honeymoon? Hearing that shocked me, but then I came back to reality and said, 'Come on, Mom, this is the time. Luca is here, and if I need both of you, I'll call. I've been going to meetings with Dad since childhood; I can handle things here. don't worry go enjoy

See, I told you there wouldn't be any problem, honey.

But he'll be alone."

Don't worry, Mom, you both are going. The discussion is over. When's the date, and where are you going?

Dad said with a big smile, "We're leaving today for France, where I first met your mom! Honey, remember?
