"One step is needed to win the game"
"He is my target"
"And to make myself win"
"From his gun i took out the bullets"
"You are really crazy" Minnie stated when Jurin who was was beside her placed the white plates in the cabinet.
"And why's that?" Jurin closed the cabinet door
"That's because all the girls who were sold to him before you chose to be free from him and his presence in their life and now all of them are living like normal people but but you..." Minnie looked at her
"You chose to be his maid when you had the chance to leave" she continued
"What was i going to do anywhere when i had no money?" Jurin pursed her lips
"You could have worked like you are doing here" Minnie told her to which Jurin letted out a sigh
"If only you knew what i want to obtain from staying here" Jurin said in her mind
"Do you work for him or were you also sold to him?" Jurin asked as she was interested to know about Minnie
"I was not sold but was brought here because of his kindness"
"Ha if he is even kind" Jurin mumbled
"Oh my i forgot to clean the two rooms upstairs" There it was. A chance for Jurin to roll the dice and land a big six. A big step was going to be taken by her to win the game.The game between two players in which only one would win.
"Don't worry i will go clean them" Jurin spoke
"Okay then go and i will take care of the rice" Minnie was tired from doing all the tiresome work of the mansion and with Jurin being there to help her she got some burden off from her weak body.
Jurin took some cleaning supplies with her and started cleaning. She always had maids to do the work for her and was not even allowed to get a glass of water by herself. She found herself enjoying the cleaning work but the real fun was to take place whem she reached the outside of Louis's room. Just like a thief she had an eye out and made sure that there was nobody there to witness the crime she was about to commit.
When noone came in her sight she opened the door and went inside. She quickly opened the drawer in which Louis's gun was placed. Jurin took the gun out from the drawer and then took the bullets out from it. She threw the bullets out of the window and they landed outside the mansion passing over the brick wall which surrounded the mansion and silently left the room.
He goes for dangerous missions everyday so what would happen if his gun didn't have any bullets to kill the morons infront of him?
Jurin came downstairs and Minnie served the food. Jurin could only look at the tasty food in the plates and the bowls as the maids were supposed to eat after their master was done.
Jurin took the bowls and plates to the kitchen where she and Minnie ate the food peacefully. Peace was between them but left as soon as they heard Louis's loud voice. Both of them peeked outside from the kitchen door to see what the matter was. Many of Louis's men stood infront of him in a straight line. He threw his gaze on each one of them and said
"I have been informed that there is someone here who is a betrayer" His sentence made all of his men look at each other in the eyes. They never considered themselves as each others brothers or friends and trust was never between them.
"It can be you" he walked past a guy
"Or it can be you" another one was suspected by him
"But i know very well which one of you works for him" He stopped in his path. A man stood to his left and one stood to his right.
Louis looked at both of them and suddenly held the collar of one of the man's suit. His hands travelled from his collar to his throat squeezing it. The man huffed and puffed and tried to free himself from Louis's strong grip but was unable to. Louis took out his gun from his pocket and placed it on the man's throat.
"Say goodbye to the world" Louis pulled the trigger of the gun
"Click Clack"
When the bullet didn't come out he threw the man on the ground. His men grabbed the betrayer from the arms when he looked at his gun. There were no bullets inside of it.Jurin was expecting an angry reaction from him but instead he laughed.
"So which one of you did this?" he turned to his men. A queer smile on his face. The smile was weird but terrifying at the same time.When he didn't get an answer from anyone amongst them.
"I asked which one of you DID THIS!?he repeated his statement but this time his anger grew. The group of innocent men just stood there.None of their tongues worked infront of Louis. The real culprit though was in the kitchen watching all of this happen which was a result of the deed she did.
"Fine if all of you are innocent. But the culprit deserves to be punished" He pulled a gun out from a guy's pocket. This gun did have bullets inside of it.
"Is he going to kill of them?"Jurin asked Minnie
"No,he is not that cruel" Minnie responded knowing how Louis was only trying to make them scared. Suddenly Louis placed the gun on a man's chest who stood to his side and before he could press the trigger.
"It was me!" And the voice belonged to the same male who Louis declared a traitor. However he was lying because he didn't want Louis to kill an innocent guard. The innocent guard was also his younger brother.
"Wow two crimes done by the same guy" Louis walked towards him,his finger on the trigger of the gun but before the bullet could be shot the man who was the target of Louis's gum before came infront of Louis's gun
"Sir please don't kill him" the curly black hair guy who worked for Louis joined his hands and said
"And who are you to stop me?"Louis raised his eyebrows questioning Steve knowing that he has no power against him.
"His brother. Iam his brother. Iam Steve and this is Steven" the man introduced himself and his brother quickly
"So you also helped him?"
"We both work together" he told and held Louis's arm bringing the gun closer to his forehead.
"We work for Mr Harold. You may surely know him. He hired us to get information about you and your plans. But Sir i swear that we only told him about the missions we went on and who you killed. We never got a hint of what your plans were or are?"
"And why are you telling me all of this?" Louis asked him wanting to know the reason for the details he was giving him.
"Iam also a traitor like him so if you are going to kill him might as well end me" Steve said
"Alright i don't mind doing that but why did yoy start working for him?" Louis asked Steve who had nothing in his eyes. Neither tears not fear.
"Money sir everyone wants money but we didn't want money we needed it,needed it badly. Steven..."he turned to look at his elder and only brother who was held by the arms.
"Steven needed to have a kidney transplant and i wasn't a match. Nobody was showing up to help us. We had lost all hopes and that's when Mr Harold appeared in our lives. He said that he will arrange a kidney for Steven and and also help us with our problems.The only job we were supposed to do was to collect him information about you. He told us that this was something which could help us with our life and perhaps even make it better and so we did what he told us to" Steve said truthfully nothing in his explanation was false. Louis pushed him away and went to his brother. He lifted his suit and saw the scar. He examined the scar and nodded his head slightly which was a gesture for the men who held Steven. The men letted go of his arms.
"You two would now work for me" he said making the brothers surprised. They looked at each other. The same expression on their faces. Hearing this from Louis's mouth was unbelievable for them.
"Thank you.Thank you sir" Steve bowed down to Louis and picked Steven from the ground. Steven also bowed to Louis.
"You both are allowed to go but if you try to switch sides then the consequences won't be pretty" Louis said and left from there.
The brothers were happy that the mafia king didn't kill them. A part of them was also in shock because the mafia king who wouldn't leave anyone who dared to think about hurting him didn't say anything when the criminals accepted their crime.
"He took the blame for the crime which he never did" Jurin mumbled which Minnie almost heard
"What did you say?"
"I meant that he accepted his crime and Louis spared his brother" Jurin said to the maid and the girls exited from the kitchen. Jurin went into the room which was given to her and sat by the window. She watched the cars go and dissapear from her sight. Some fast and some slow. The lights of the city shined and glowed as if they took the job of the stars in the nightsky. Suddenly she heard the creak of the door. Thinking it was Minnie she sat at the place but her thought changed when she heard his voice.
"Are you sure that you want to stay here?"
She turned her face to look at Louis who looked gloomy all of a sudden. There was just something inside of him at the moment which expressed his gloominess and sadness.
"You are allowed to leave and it would be much better compared to living in this place"
"Wow he really wants me out of here but i didn't even do anything"Jurin thought completely ignoring how she took the bullets out from his gun.
"No,its fine. I want to work here"she told him
"You really are stubborn. Different from those who were here before you" Louis said and left Jurin alone in the room.
"What happend to him?"Jurin wondered and got busy in watching the view outside of the window once again
