Angelo stared at the emptied clan. He sighed. Everyone has left....not as if he was expecting any soul to stay
"I am sorry father, i know i fail you but i keep up with it anymore. I have to let this people go. I have a family to leave for too" He said sighing.
"I know wherever your father is, he'll understand. What you did , is the best thing to be done" Landon said beside him and he smiled sadly.
"You know Landon, ever since i was young i hated anything about taking this legacy from my father. I wanted to leave a normal life with my mother and twin brother" He said and pushed. He stared at Landon's face and could see the shocked and surprise looks.
He pated his shoulder and smile again. "Yes i got a twin brother. His name is Brandon. Is a secret tho" He said and Landon nodded.
"Living with mother is the best experience ever. I can still remember the happy moments even if i was still young them. Father comes once in a while to spend time with us and trust me, it was the best moment for all of us" he said and Landon nodded.
"Then problem started arising. Mother found out father got a mistress who has two children for him already. He was confronted by mother and he never denial it. Father became worst as he neglected us and go for his mistress. Mother couldn't take it and have to confront the mistress but it didn't end well with both women. My mother became more heartbroken when father decided to take me to the clan and train me to be a mafia. He chose me instead of my brother. I never wanted this....i didn't want to get separated for my mother and father. I got threatened and because i love my mother and brother so much, i accepted. I was brought to the clan and I was trained to be dangerous and heartless. Just the way father wants. Everything was going well till father brought two kids who were far older than me and they were trained along side with me and they became more stronger too. Father was killed on his way to see his mistress by this two killed. I got to find out father killed their parents under their watchful eyes causing them emotional distraught. I guessed their father really did bad. Anger, jealousy and bitterness puzzled their heart and they wish nothing but revenge. They took over the clan and made me their slaves. I wanted to fight back but then they took my weaker brother under their custody. I got no choice but to work for them" He said and sniffed.
"I should stoo here now" He muttered. He's not ready to tell how he met with Bluey.
"This is his clan and i don't think if this is what he wants but its time to be happy right?. I've been sacrificing my happiness for too long. It's time to make everything right and that's why I'm letting everyone go. I have a family and i want to come back to them." He said and Landon nodded.
"You know what boss.....
"Call me Angelo" He cut him short.
"An..ge..lo" He stuttered and gulped down. It was kinda hard for him.
"I have a family too. A loving mother, a little cute sister but an abusive father. My sister and i were abusive by my supposed father and sometimes I wish if he's really my father. I hated myself for not being able to stand my father and for being weak before me. I watched my little sister suffered and saved with my mother. My mother love my father so much that she doesn't want to leave the hell of a marriage. According to her, she deserves it for hurting father. That what she did was unforgivable and she never told us about it. I couldn't bear it again and have to run away. I came here so i could be trained and be strong. I want to stand before my father and kill him" He said and folded his fist. Anger was all written over him.
"But i never regret coming here. At least i have someone to call a brother now"He said.
"You still have a family somewhere and you can never change that. How long will you keep running away?. What if your family are suffering and really needs your help?. Its time to challenge your father and stop running away like a chicken" He teased and Landon smile.
"I'm always here to help as a big brother. We can go get your mother and sister before leaving" He said and Landon gasped.
"Will....will....you really do that?" He gasped.
"Of course, you're path of me now. Your father is now my family. I'm heading to my suite. When you're ready to leave just let me know" He said and Landon smile widely.
"Thanks big brother" He muttered amidst tears. He couldn't wait to see his mother and cute little sister again.
★★★
Jenna lay on her bed. She wasn't packing or planning to leave anytime soon.
She just laid there thinking of so many things. Alot was going on her mind.
Where was she to go?
She got no one. She hiccups and finally let the tears flow.
"Here you go....you can wipe that off" She head a voice which she recognized to be Landon's own. She looked up and saw him giving her a handkerchief.
She quickly sat up, she wasn't even aware the time he came in.
"When did you come in" She asked taking the handkerchief and wiping her tears.
"When you were busy crying" He said and she sigh.
"Why are you still here. I thought you could have left" She said getting up.
"Yea....i just thought of checking the clan yo make sure everyone has left and luckily, i found you" He said and Jenna rolls eyes.
"Saying you were searching for me, would have been much better"She said opening her wardrobe bringing out her clothes.
"So tell me, why haven't you left?" He asked moving to her.
"Why?" He asked.
"I have no where to go. I'm an orphan and the knly sister I have is died" She said.
"Died?" Landon furrowed his brows. "Yes...dead. Sofia is my sister and i just got to find out" She said and Landon gasped.
"I was more surprised than you are" She said.
"But how come you never knew?" He asked.
"Is a long story. I might tell later but right now, i need to find somewhere to stay" She said and Landon sigh.
"I don't think is necessary cause right now, you're coming with me and the boss. I can't leave you here all alone" He said and Jenna gasped.
"What...what did you say?" She asked.
"You heard well baby. Pack your stuff and lets leave. You can't expect me to leave you here, I'll be waiting for you down floor" He said and peck her cheek. Jenna blushed as she touches her cheek.
CHICAGO★★★
Mia kept staring at Brandon. To her, he looks look handsome to be a cripple. She was staring at him as she slice on the vegetables on the chopping board. His thick lashes. His brown eyes, his cheeks bones and his cute red lips that can drive anyone crazy. "No doubt, he's blessed with a cute face"Mai said as she kept stealing glances at him.
"Ouch!" She screamed out and Granny quickly rushed to her. "It hurts" She cried out. She just accidentally cut her fingers.
"What were you thinking?" Granny asked her and she sigh. How will she even tell Granny she was staring at his son. "It hurts" She winced.
"Here, let me see" Granny said.
"Okay Granny" She responded showing Granny her injured finger.
"How come you injured yourself this badly?" She asked and Mai pouted her lips. She raised her head and caught him staring at her. She smile softly.
"Huh....you got a crush on him right?" Granny asked and Mai frowned and withdraw her finger from Granny's hand.
"Of course not" She pouted out going back to the chopping board on the counter.
"Your actions says something different" Granny muttered walking to her.
"Of course not Granny. I considered you all as my family. He's my brother now and I can't possibly crush on him" She muttered.
Granny sigh.
"I know you do but it isn't bad either if you go for him, as long you two aren't the same blood" She said and Mia raised her brows.
"But......
"There's no but. My son is a great man and he'll treat you nice. Don't make a mistake you'll regret. It's your love life we're talking about here. You're such a sweet girl and i love you wholeheartedly. I wouldn't mind at all if you go for him, you're still my adorable daughter" She said and immediately, she felt her eyes heat up.
"Gosh Granny.... you're making me cry now"She said cutely and rushed to Granny, giving her a thight hug.
"I'm i missing something?" Brandon asked. He has successfully wheeled himself to where they're.
"Of course not son, Mia just sustained injuries when slicing vegetables " He said more cutely and Mia looked away as he felt her cheek turning red.
"Really?...I should take a look" He said and held her injured finger.
"You should be more careful next time" He muttered and without wasting time, he started blowing the blood.
"Oh mine!. I neee to leave right now"Granny said touching her head fondly as she walked out.
"Granny" Mia muttered feeling embarrassed as she got goosebumps.
THE MAFIA CLAN
Bluey stared at the Clan one more time. Everyone was gone and same like the boss. She thought she was dreaming but she wasn't. He was gone for real.
He fooled her. What happened about the love he proposed to her. The marriage he proposed to her.....They were both going to leave the country and start a new family right?
But now he's gone. What happened to all the plannings they make?
He really fooled her. She made her father let go of his brother and now the reward she got was this?
She wiped her tears in anger. She isn't gonna shed anymore tears for this.
"He's cruel. He's wicked.... I'm never gonna forgive him. He will pay for dumping me" She screamed in anger and eventually started crying.
She stares at the locked Clan again and at that moment, she felt empty. She killed her biological mother already and the man she loves is gone.
And now a little thing is growing inside her. She felt so miserable to the core. "This was never the life i wants. How did i get here" She asked herself.
"I allowed myself to be lured by riches. I did crazy and forbidden things just to get there. Now I've lost everything, will i go back to father then?" She thought and shook her head.
"I can't do that. Father ruin me....he made me lust after worldly thinks. I allowed him to use me for his revenge and selfish desire. Where's my humanity?. I killed my mother with my both hands. God!!! I hate me! I hate myself"She yelled between gritted teeth as she fell on her knees
"When are we leaving?" She heard someone said.
She looked up and saw Draco. She quickly wipe her tears.
She hates when someone sees her cry. "We? And when did you become path of me?" She uttered angrily and got up quickly. Draco suddenly burst into laughter. Bluey only furrowed her brows in confusion.
"What's wrong? Did i asked anything bad?. So after all the brags, he finally left. What's left for Arianna now....oh I'm sorry, i mean Bluey. What's left for you now?" He asked and Bluey bite her lips in anger.
"You can as well lead the way to hell. To our home. To where we rightful belong. It's time to go home..... don't you think its time for us to rest in peace" He said.
"You're crazy. Can you just leave me alone?" She said angrily as she walked away from the clan.
"You can't possibly leave me here, I don't even know my way to hell. I need your guidance.... please wait up!" He muttered and ran after her.
AT THE HOSPITAL★★
"Honey you're awake" Mr Walton said and hugged her. Mrs Beatrice didn't move but instead, cried silently.
"Thanks for being so strong. Thanks for waking up. Thanks for staying alive for me, for our daughter, for our grandchild. I will make whosoever did this to you pay. I promise you honey" He said and tears webbled down his cheeks.
"My...my skin. I look horrible right?" She asked. "Not at all my honey, you're still my beautiful wife. The dermatology will take care of your skin. Trust me, it will glow again. What's more important, is that you're awake. I love you honey. Nothing can change that"He muttered and wiped her tears before pulling her into a gently hug.
AN OLD BUILDING★
"Is this where they live?"Angelo asked as he climbed down the car. Landon and Jenna climbed down too.
Yeah! Don't be surprised, they took Jenna with them.
"Yes! Both mother, father and sister lives here. It's been four years tho, I don't know if they relocated" Landon said and sigh staring at the old building in front of him.
"We can never tell if we don't go in" Angelo muttered.
Landon nodded and lead the way. He got to the door an knocked on it. After some minutes, the door opened revealing Landon's dad. He stares at Landon surprised as he had a smirk on his wicked lips.
"The runaway son is finally back and it looks like he came with some people. Are they our visitors son?" He said staring at Angelo and Jenna.
"He looks familiar" He thought not moving his gaze from Angelo.
"Fernando" Landon called without stuttering. He was surprised at how fearless he is, no longer shaking like a drenched chicken when he hears his father's voice. "Oh you seem more bored. You now call your father by his name?" He asked and Landon crenched his jaw.
"Cut with the pretendence, you never acknowledge my sister and i as your children. Where's my mother and sister"He said and Fernando smirk.
"I know a day like this will come. Of course, i kept your mothers head for you but as your sister, she ran away just like you" He said and Landon furrowed his brows. Fernando walked into the house and later came back holding Cara's head.
Jenna gasped and hid behind Angelo. She covered her eyes with her palm.
"You....you killed her"He stuttered amidst tears. "Stop sounding as if I'm bad. Your made me like this and she deserve nothing but a gruesome death" He said and laugh out. Landon immediately grabbed his collar tightly.
" Why are you so wicked" he said with gritted teeth.
"Why are you so devilish and diabolical!!. What has my mother ever done to you. She has done nothing but to love you despite the way you treated us.....why are you so cruel" He said choking him. "Your mother is a slut, a mistress!. I love her so much and she dares cheat on me with him. It's a sin and it can never be forgiven! You and your sister are bastard"He spat out.
" Shut up!" Landon yelled. Angelo watched everything and made no effort to stop him. It was obvious he was going to kill the old man.
"Before you send me to hell, your mother has asked me to give this envelope to you. It contains the pictures of your father. At least you can get to know him. That bastard" he laughed out like a manaic but Landon didn't pay attention to him. He was full of anger and he could ferl his whole body boiling. Without pity, he grip harder on his Fernando neck and eventually killed him
He let go of him and allowed him drop dead on the floor with the envelope in his hand. Angelo bent down and pick up the envelope. He opened it and brought out the pics. He gasped at what he saw.
"Dad?"He asked furrowing his brows.
"He's... he's your father?. Your...your mother is his mistress? You're Mai brother?" He asked at once and staggered back in shock.
****
THE NEXT DAY.
EDEN'S SCHOOL.
"Be a big boy, listeb to your teacher and don't get into trouble" Arianna said as she stopped in front of Eden's school.
"I will mother" He said and lean forward to peck her cheek. Arianna roughed his head in return before handling his backpack to him.
"You look stressed mummy?" Eden said and at that moment, Arianna stomach rumbled
" You didn't eat dinner last night right?" He asked.
"Eden, you'll be late. Common go on" She said but her stomach made the funny sounds again.
She held her stomach lightly.
"Mother!" he called.
"Common baby I'm fine. I wasn't feeling too good to eat last night" She muttered
"Why mother?. Did you want to kill yourself?. I'm your husband now and i ought to look after you before father comes"He said.
"The next time you skip meal, I'll really get mad" he said. He opened the door and climb down the car. Arianna also climbed down. She rushed to the other side and crunched down. She suddenly hugged him. She was suddenly feeling scared and insecured.
"I'm sorry baby. Don't be mad at momma. I promise not to skip meal again"She muttered hugging him so tight.
"I love you momma" Eden said.
"More more baby" She replied and surprisingly, tears gestures out of her eyes.
She quickly wiped it and broke the hug. "Common, run along" She said standing up. Eden stared at his mother from head to toe and smile sheepishly.
"You're looking so hot momma. You shouldn't dress this way since father isn't back. I don't want people out there to stare at father's property. I'm going now" He said and ran out. Arianna shook her head.
"How come he knows more than his age" Arianna found herself asking. She stared at him until he was out of sight and then she remembered she had to be at the hospital.
She has been feeling sick, most times tipsy and a sour throat. She stares at the road Eden passed. Even if he was gone, she couldn't stop herself from staring. She felt kinda and didn't want to leave.
"He's okay.... he's in safe hands" Her subconscious mind said to her. "I'm just being paranoid" She added and entered her car before driving out.
Richmond smiled from where he stood watching Arianna drive out.
He illegally entered Chicago last night
"So it true....that mother fucker outsmart me and made a fool out of me"He smirk and puffed out smoke from his mouth before placing the cigarette in-between hus lip again.
"He's gonna pay for killing my brother and making a fool outta me. He's gonna pay cuz im not dying alone" He said to himself as his gaze were fixed on Eden's school.
