Mafia king Innocent Luna by Kainaat

"Alisha, come here this instant! What in the world are you up to?" a lady's voice resounded through the house.

Alisha's excitement reverberated as she shouted back, "I'm coming, Mother Mary."

As an orphan, Alisha always affectionately referred to Mary as her mother, for Mary had showered her with love and care, treating her as her own flesh and blood.

"Hurry, my dear. Today is your first day of college!" Mary's voice resonated once again, urging Alisha.

"I'm on my way! Just give me a moment!" Alisha swiftly responded.

Adorned in a cute pair of shorts, a matching crop top, and denim shoes, Alisha descended the stairs and inquired, "Mother Mary, who were you shouting at?"

Mary scolded her, "You little rascal! You're going to be late!"

Curious, Alisha asked, "What does 'rascal' mean, Mother?"

Deep in her thoughts, Mary sighed and prayed, "This child is so innocent, may God protect her from the cruelties of the world."

"Nothing, my dear. Just drink this juice!" Mary replied.

Alisha made a peculiar face and protested, "Juice? Mother! You know I detest it!"

Mary stood her ground, saying, "Regardless of your preferences, you must drink it."

With haste, Alisha exclaimed, "I apologize, Mother, but I must hurry! I don't want to be late!" And with that, she rushed out of the house.

Mary let out a sigh, contemplating, "This child is far too innocent for this world. She has the power to brighten everyone's lives. I hope no one casts a shadow upon her."

After some time, she arrived at college with her joy-filled face, obtained her class schedule from the office, and entered her first class.

As evening descended, Alisha returned to the orphanage after completing all her classes. She called out with excitement, "Mother Mary, where are you?"

Mary's voice echoed in response, "Welcome back home, my dear! How was your first day?"
