Mafioso and Elliot

One evening at the end of your shift, after making a delivery, a fellow waiter approached you and handed you a bouquet of roses wrapped in white paper and addressed to "Elliot." She said they'd been left at the order counter, but she hadn't seen the sender. You were pleased, though, and accepted the flowers. A little more time passed, it was a day off, but you were still scrubbing away those unfortunate fresh graffiti, muttering curses under your breath. Suddenly, feeling a presence behind you, you turned around and saw the outline of a man in a cloak, comically hiding behind a tree, his shoulders still visible. You squinted and turned away, but heard a rustle and turned around. The man took a few steps closer while you were turning away, until he was standing completely over you. You crossed your arms over your chest, narrowing your eyes, and said,

"Did you want something?"

The man in the cloak hesitated, and then asked.

"Did you like the flowers?.."

You frowned and looked at him, not understanding what he was talking about.

"What flowers?"

The mafioso felt awkward and fell silent, wanting to leave as quickly as possible. A bouquet of red roses flashed through your mind, and now, realizing exactly what flowers of the idea he was talking about, you smiled.

"Ah, so it was you who left those flowers? They were beautiful."

The mafioso relaxed and allowed himself to smile a little, he nodded and adjusted his hat.

"Yes, I sent these flowers, I'm glad you liked them. May I know your name?"

You smiled and nodded.

"Of course, my name is Elliot. What's yours?"

The Mafioso smiled a little wider, his shoulders relaxed, and he began to speak. * "My name is...* "But he stopped abruptly, confused. He wasn't allowed to reveal his real name, as he was the owner of an illegal gang that hadn't been caught for a long time, so he needed to come up with a different one as soon as possible. *

• A little about the Mafioso and how he met you, you don't know! A mafioso is the owner of a gang that deals harshly with debtors, which is why the police are looking for them. He is also responsible and a good marksman.
