The charm of Mr. De Luca

The charm of Mr. De Luca
Towards Palermo



Matteo moved out of Mia's room. He closed the balcony window tightly. Before deciding to go down, Matteo looked back at Mia who had fallen asleep and was unaware of her departure.


“What kind of feeling is this?” the Matteo Guman in his heart. He really does not understand everything that has happened to him, from the moment he met the figure of Mia. However, Matteo did not want to get too absorbed in feelings that would only make him look weak. However, for now Matteo is not interested in romance. He had determined, after tonight he would release the strange feeling he had felt towards Mia.


Matteo rushed down from the balcony of the room. He stepped to the place where his car was parked. Before leaving, Matteo took the time to look at his watch. The destination is the airport now. He will travel to Palermo on his first flight.


Moments later, Matteo started the engine of his car. The atmosphere was still very dark and quiet, because it was only three in the morning. Matteo runs his car in no hurry. He also continued to try to forget what he had done earlier with Mia, even though the reality was that the shadow of the girl was getting stronger and often present in his eyes.


While on the way, Matteo finally arrived at Venice's city airport. He immediately parked his car. Coincidentally at that time the atmosphere at the airport was also still fairly quiet. Matteo waited for a while for normal activity to appear there. He has also taken care of everything related to his car. He will leave his car in the parking area and pick it up again when he returns from Palermo.


So sure Matteo is that he will return safely. However, it must be emphasized in him. Matteo must return to Brescia, and he must stay alive so that he can return to see his parents and also ... Mia's?


I don't know what feelings he had towards that gentle figure. The stronger Matteo brushed aside, the deeper the sense was rooted in the bottom of his heart. “This is not good,” murmured Matteo slowly. He was unable to concentrate on the plan he would execute in the next few hours. All because his brain kept repeating the activities he had just done with the girl.


Nearly an hour and a half into the journey, Matteo finally arrived in the city of Palermo. Coco was waiting for him at the airport. He had to move quickly to devise an infiltration plan into Silvio Moriarty's mansion.


“How was your trip, friend?” greet Coco while clutching Matteo's shoulders with familiarity. He misses his best friend very much.


“Custom only. I was just sitting on the plane. Damn, I can't sleep at all!” matteo replied, ending with a complaint. As usual, he always had a cool style of speech. Matteo then gets into Coco's rented van. He was so amazed by the contents of the car which was filled with various sophisticated equipment.


“No need to praise. I know if I am reliable,” Coco said confidently. He followed Matteo into the car and started running it. They left the airport immediately.


“You are sure if your girl is reliable?” Matteo sounded doubtful about Lenatta's performance.


“Ya of course,” replied Coco confidently. “I'm sure Lenatta can do his job well,” he asserted while continuing to drive. The speed of his car split the streets of Palermo when not too crowded.


Matteo then moved the seat to the back, where there was a monitor screen that Coco used to monitor. He immediately opened a recording of the results of observations for several days yesterday that made him very curious. Sometimes the man yawns long. He looks so exhausted.


“Did you drive all night, man?” sindir Coco when seeing his best friend from the reflection of the deep rearview that leads directly towards Matteo. While Matteo does not care about the innuendo of Coco. He was still focused on watching the monitor screen and looking at it very carefully. Matteo examined the footage in great detail. There was not a single scene that he did not miss, especially when he saw Silvio who seemed to be leaving. He seemed to be in a hurry and put a remote on the table next to his bed.


Matteo frowned. He felt astonished because Silvio was so rash to put such an important object. “It should be very easy to take the remote lock of the secret door,” chirped.


“How can? Silvio kept it in his pants pocket. He always takes it wherever he goes,” said Coco while continuing to drive the van.


“It seems not to this time. He just threw it on the nightstand,” said Matteo in surprise.


“Then?” Matteo stared intently at Coco. “He is not visible on the current surveillance camera screen. Did he leave her there on purpose?" muttered later.


“Today is his schedule to relax in the sauna and spa. He will be there all day together .…” Coco hangs up her sentence. He began to understand why Silvio was so rushed.


“Good news for you, buddy! Silvio forgot such an important thing for the sake of my girl,” grinned Coco.


“So how?” ask Matteo to make sure.


“We are heading to Moriarty mansion now!” firmly Coco vigorously, while Matteo complained softly. He's so tired. Matteo has the wrong strategy this time.


“We'd better have a coffee for a while. I really feel bad today,” complained Matteo. He threw his body on the back of the car seat. Matteo closed his eyes for a moment while thinking about how he could sneak into the Moriarty Mansion. A while later, Matteo reopened his eyes and glanced at Coco. “Not yesterday did you say you had an easy way to infiltrate the Moriarty Mansion?”


Coco looked over and smiled. He moved his eyebrows at the same time. “Later I'll tell you. In a moment, I'll buy you a hot coffee so that your mind is clear again,” Coco opened the car door and intends to get out. “Oh, my friend who made you this confused?” racau Coco coming out. While Matteo does not care about all of Coco's words. He just wanted to gather his strength for a while.


Not long after, Coco returned with two cups of hot coffee. He offered one to Matteo and the other immediately he sipped. “Drink first, Friend!” tell Coco. “You look very messed up, Theo,” said the brown-eyed man again. He felt something strange about Matteo.


Matteo sipped his coffee. He felt very messed up at the time. However, Matteo tries to keep dismissing everything that is bothering him now. “I'm fine,” refutes Matteo cold and flat.


“You look weird from the day you escaped to Venice. I don't know who you're meeting there, but for now you have to make yourself much more focused than usual. Remember who you're going to face!” advice Coco. It was not usual for him to speak in such a tone to Matteo.


Matteo turned his head and smiled slightly. He then patted Coco on the shoulder. “You take it easy, man! I can still control myself well. I just need a little time to gather energy,” Matteo let out a long breath and flicked it slowly. He then fell silent and seemed to think. A moment later, Matteo again said, “Tell me how I can get in there easily!”


Meanwhile, Mia woke up in confusion. He did not find Matteo beside him. However, Mia has a bracelet that is now attached to her wrist. Mia clasped her left wrist. Without feeling her tears just drip.


“Theo ..” Mia whimpers slowly. He then rested on the head of the bed while fixing a blanket that covered part of his body. Mia did not expect that Matteo would leave without saying goodbye to her first.
