Chereads / La Nostra Pace (Our Peace) / Chapter 2 - Chapter 1: Gamma

Chapter 2 - Chapter 1: Gamma

"Welcome to the cafe La Nostra Pace, Boss!" they greeted while saluting at Gamma, their faces tensed up before laying their arms at rest.

Gamma just looked at them nonchalantly while ruffling Delta's purple hair. His blunt looking eyes roamed around the area, observing everything he sees especially the placement of the tables and chairs. He then strolls around the cafe, carefully looking at the arrangement of the picture frames and condiments. The costumers were weirded out before leaving the cafe until no one were left except for the staffs. Gamma reaches the corner and he carefully sniffed the area, "Who dared to smoke inside of this establishment?" he asked, his voice sounds tired and raspy at the same time, "Me, Boss." Piero responded quickly while raising his right hand, "How many times did I told you people not to smoke inside here? It's stinky." he complained while spraying perfume in the corner.

"Also, who the hell destroyed the staff's room's door?!" asked Gamma in a frustrated manner.

"Blame Flavio for giving everyone the consent to bed Dante.." Marco casually stated while pointing at Flavio.

"Hey! It was you who destroyed the door.." Flavio responded as he pointed at Marco.

"Hush, it's your fault for yelling that you will give everyone the consent to bed Dante.." Marco added while smirking as if he's winning the argument.

"No no, he's got a point.." Arturo stated while looking at the two.

"Blame Dante cause he was bored bro!" Flavio yelled.

"The what?!" Dante exclaimed while looking at the two blaming each other.

"Enough you idiots!" Gamma glared at the them, "Well, this went from zero to one-hundred real quick.." Arturo murmured. "We'll be having a meeting tomorrow.. inform all of your underlings, Delta.." Gamma commanded before walking out of the cafe.

Dorotea started texting their branch members while Marco and Flavio began fixing the broken door. Delta just sat on the chair while eating her lollipop, while the others went in the locker room to change their uniforms. "Are you done, Dorotea?" Delta asked while looking at the two boys fixing the door yet her eyes we're fixated on Marco, "Yes, ma'am." Dorotea responded while sipping her tea.

"We're going home now, ma'am, take care." Salvatore greeted before he, Piero, Arturo and Filippo went out to go home, "Same to you too guys.." she responded while waving at the four, only her, Dorotea, Dante, Flavio and Marco were left in the cafe. After the two finished fixing the door, they changed their uniforms in the locker room and they bid farewell together with Dorotea and Dante. Only Delta was left alone in the cafe, she just stared at the ceiling while wondering what should she'll do tonight. She grabbed her phone before dialing a friend,

[Greetings..] Delta greeted.

[What do you need this time?] a man spoke on the other line before letting a deep sigh.

[Let's meet at 7, you already know where and bring your Thetas'reports.] Delta stated.

[Roger that missy~] said by the man before hanging.

The night time passes, she changed her uniform before going out and locking the establishment from outside. She went inside the bar and ordered a tequila. While sitting on the stool, she notices someone familiar sitting beside her, it was a very tall man filled with bandages, his messy black hair caught Delta's attention, he is currently drinking vodka while looking down.

"Finally, R—"

"Just call me Delta." she cut his sentence short while smiling gently at him before clenching on the bottle and almost breaking it.

"Sorry..about that.." the man just chuckled while ruffling Delta's hair. "Anyways, why did you called me...?" the man asked as he takes a sip in his drink, "I just want to confirm something..." Delta stated while looking at him, "Delta: Pio of the 2nd Branch." she deadpanned.

"What do you want this time?" Pio sighed while looking away.

"Did you brought your Thetas' reports" Delta kept her voice lower, almost whispering her question.

"Yes, why..?" Pio whispered his respond. Delta grabbed something in her pocket, it was a brown envelope sliding it infront of Pio, "I see.." he murmured, "Goodluck, good ol' pal." Delta smiled as she left the bar leaving Pio with the envelope.

[ Time skip: 7:00 am ]

The cafe was closed for today due to an urgent meeting at the House Drago where Gamma lives. Everyone was there, Delta sits beside Gamma while the others sat on the chairs depending on their Ranks. Salvatore, Piero, Arturo, Filippo and Marco sat in the front row since they're Epsilons; while Flavio, Dante and Giusto sat on the second row cause their rank were Varepsilons; the Zetas sat next to the Varepsilons and lastly; Dorotea with the other three Etas sat on the last row. The 1st Branch discussed about the weapon and drug dealing, cause just as what the Beta I said to Gamma, it's an important matter. After discussing about the main topic, they jumped in the reports and documents of the cafe, and now, they're open for suggestions.

"Boss! Can we remove horse meat in the menu? We're scaring the costumers away.." Filippo suggested while raising his hand. "No, we Italians eat horses." Gamma stated,

"But sir... This country doesn't even eat horses—"

"Hush, also, I'm ordering you all to gather hairs.. I would be pleased if you gathered purple, white, black and red for me." said Gamma while looking at them.

"Wait, what—" Arturo almost spilled his coffee after hearing Gamma's command. "Are you opposing me mortal?" Gamma glances at Arturo, "No sir.. ಠ◡ಠ" the young lad responded while fixing his glasses, Delta just played with her hair while looking at Salvatore who's now sweating intensely, Dante and Giusto looked at each other bearing the same black hair color.

"Do you want to ask something? Clarifications? Suggestions? Oppositions?" Gamma asked while looking at them. They remained silent as a sign of 'no'.

"Good..Dismiss" Gamma rushed outside while grabbing his phone. "Welp, he's girlfriend's calling him again.." Marco chuckled while spinning his dagger, "Jeez.. I'm still single.. still counting my rejections.." Arturo sighed while looking at his coffee, "Have you forgotten us?" Flavio looks at Arturo with a hint of disappointment in his face.

"Wait, you're still single aside with that look of yours? Man you're a looker you know, why waste it?" Arturo stated while looking at Flavio who's now frowning, "We can't blame him for being a simp.. oh wait, our Varepsilons are all simps.." Marco gazes at Flavio, Dante and Giusto.

"Please... Give me some girls, that can accept the way I act.. (༎ຶ _ ༎ຶ)" said Giusto while weeping.

"Big Sister Delta!!" Letizia rushed to Delta and hugs her.

"Letizia!!" Delta then carries Letizia and hugs her. "How's the cafe while I'm gone for awhile??" Letizia asked while smiling at Delta cheerfully, "The others we're scaring the costumers away though.. but it's fine, they're under my control.." Delta stated while walking towards the door that leads outside still carrying Letizia.
