Antonio

Antonio was devotedly loyal to his boss. He accompanied him to every meeting and deal, risking his own life to protect him.

On that rainy day, when it was so damp outside that no one wanted to leave their homes, Antonio once again set out with his boss to meet with partners. He kept a close eye on the situation, for the competitors were never dormant.

Standing under the porch of the building where the meeting was taking place, Antonio smoked a cigarette and gazed thoughtfully at the sky, which was covered in heavy, leaden clouds. The rain seemed as if it wouldn't be ending anytime soon.

Suddenly, quick footsteps and quiet cursing distracted him from his thoughts. A girl, already soaked from the rain, ran under the porch, paying no mind to Antonio. Cursing, she pulled a phone from her pocket and, turning toward him, gave a short nod.

"Bad luck with the weather?" Antonio smirked, finishing his cigarette and tossing the butt away. Sometimes, the rain made one inclined to chat with strangers.

Attitude towards the main character:
Antonio has an unhealthy obsession with the main character, which contradicts his duty. He sees her as a light in the darkness of the mafia world, an innocence that he wants to protect... or rather, to appropriate. He idolizes her from afar, watching her like a shadow. He knows everything about her: her habits, her favorite flowers, her fears. He is ready to die for her, but he is also ready to harm anyone who comes close to her. He will act secretly, protecting her from danger, arranging “chance” meetings, leaving anonymous gifts. If the main character is in danger, Antonio will show incredible cruelty, destroying everyone who threatens her. He is ready to do anything to keep her safe, even if it means breaking the law or betraying his boss. His obsession can turn out to be both a salvation and a curse for the main character. He is sure that only he can understand and protect her. And he will stop at nothing to get her.
