"Why is that all of a sudden?" asked Alyosha in surprise. "Wow! Could it be that you will soon die, huh? To have a request like that."
Elisio sighed tiredly, leaning back against his father's favorite old sofa. Even though it is old, the sofa is still well cared for. Long ago, after they finished making spaghetti, their father always rested himself for twenty minutes on the couch before continuing to work again.
"Did one of the younger siblings ask for more time to be with his sister? It has been almost ten years that we have always struggled with timechasing dollars for wine and fancy suits. Until we forget how we spend time together by the simple fireplace with two cups of sweet hot chocolate," said Elisio with eyes that describe deep longing even though Alyosha didn't look into those eyes, she could feel her brother's feelings when he said it all.
Alyosha snorted with laughter, shortly after that she embraced her brother and pinched him with her smooth arms. Elisio did not refuse, although he was a little embarrassed to be treated like that.
"Tomorrow I want to take you to one of my entertainment and shopping centers. There is an art performancenot just ordinary art, but there are objects that fall into the applied type such as the latest clothing styles combined with interesting artistic elements. Anyway, you can come later, you will definitely be entertained. There is one of my friends who participated in the exhibition there," said Elisio to Alyosha.
"Yeah, fine. You seem very excited. I like art, there could be some things I want to collect from there," replied Alyosha with a smile.
'Tomorrow you will see him Alyosha,' thought Elisio as he looked at his sister. meaningfully.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" asked Alyosha in surprise.
"It's okay, I saw the pimples on your face earlier. Apparently it's just a reflection of the shadow. Blame this room where the lighting is always dim," said Elisio with an innocent face.
Alyosha only frowned in surprise. But she didn't care and just shrugged her shoulders. That night they both spent their nights casually like brother and sister in general.
Alyosha and Elisio have exotic skin, but neither too brown nor too white. Although they originated in Italy and grew up in the Americas, their bodies are often exposed to sunlight. Plus Chicago also has some pretty warm areas.
They are both four years apart, now Alyosha is 32 years old while her brother is 28 years old. with a sharp nose, thin face and smooth skin like porcelain. Alyosha's height is around 169 cm and Elisio is around 182 cm, a height which is ideal for European sizes.
Their faces still look youthful like those of those who were still in their early twenties. very charming, but unfortunately they both have not thought of looking for a partner until now. There is only one alibi, which is too busy making money. That's how they casually say when asked about finding a life partner. and of course the ones who always ask that are their parents.

Early morning, birdsong greet the sense of hearing. the footsteps and the bustle of people who are active whether they go to school, work, or just on vacation fill every corner of Brooklyn city. One of the most popular tourist destinations when tourists come to the Chicago area. A dark place but also glowed at the same time. The dark history of the mafia's contribution to the area's political and economic affairs leaves Chicago full of many stories too long to tell.
And one of the successors to that story is Alyosha Vermigoun. No, she's not the daughter of mafia descent. But just a woman from an ordinary family. But after she grew up, she began to dominate the realm of the underworld economy. Also with his brother, Elisio Vermigoun, who is a successful businessman who owns a giant company.
Back to the story of Alyosha and Elisio. Now the maids have prepared warm water for them to bathe in. A casual outfit suitable for winter wear.
Alyosha wears a maroon turtleneck with a thick black knee-length jacket. She wears black Hermes jeans, with a Louis Vuitton handbag.
Elisio himself is also not much different from Alyosha, a brown turtle neck outfit with a white winter jacket. With jeans in the same color as the jacket.
They both wore gray skullcaps with embroidery on the outside that had their own names written on them. The beanie was specially made by the mother. Nothing can beat something handmade by a mother, not even a product from an expensive clothing company.
They then went to Elisio's convenience center. In a black limousine, they arrived at their destination at nine in the morning.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Elisio," said a man with a hazy blonde hair.
As the most important people there, Elisio and Alyosha were immediately greeted in such a friendly and respectful manner.
"Yes, good afternoon too Holland," replied Elisio. "No need to be like that. My sister and I just want to take a vacation as usual. So give us space," said Elisio.
"Yes sir," said one of the staff named Holand.
Elisio smiled, without knowing his sister. He had already prepared his plan for his sister. He will meet his sister with the person he has prepared.
Even though Alyosha is the leader of a mafia syndicate, vacationing in the shopping center is not difficult for her. Being a mafia does not mean that she always has to wrestle with the underworld, weapons and blood. The mafia is also a human being, precisely with her wealth she has arranged certain people who make it easier for her to freely go here and there without hindrance. Whether it's about security or about accessibility.
"Where is the venueI? had no intention of shopping or traveling elsewhere first. Because I don't want to miss any of the treasured works of art that I can collect later," said Alyosha to her brother.
"On the third floor, Lyosha, there a third of the area is used for that it feels more comfortable and spacious. Because according to the performance organizer's calculations, there will be many guests coming from various groups," said Elisio.
