Chapter 27. Offers.
QUILL
"Quill! I am sure your brother wouldn't have liked you rebelling like this, you are woman, act like one, stop trying to fight and act out can YOU?" He pissed me off, his words pissed me off. What does he means? I am woman so I should act like one? I will acta dn do whatever I wan who the hell is he to tell me anything? O laughed, he taking my hand, and pulling me, but I got it out from his grip and instead just slapped him, "You made a mistake when you said that,"I told him and crossed him starting to walk out but he caught my hand,"Don't act out, you know I am not wrong." He continued his bullshit making me more mad and crazy right now, "I don't know who come you have suddenly turned into such a pathetic man but please stop that's disgusting!" I said and opening the door, I came out and until I was out the chants ahad stopped and the fire had gone down.
I sighed and missed the most important thing in saying goodbye to him, while I went insanely mad at Romeo but I can't do anything. I missed it for good some footsteps approached from my behind, when I turned finding Mileva standing in all black, while she closed her eyes praying for him, she didn't knew him at all before, but that night she and everyone had really fun, and she came to know everyone. And she sincerely enjoyed her time. I am sure she must remember who he was. James.
I wondered to myself and turned to look ahead. "He was a good man, its better that God took him. The world would have killed the goodness in him and burn him till. He was empty and hollow. It's for his good that he went away before they could do that with him," she said consoling from the behind, nodding." You are right,"I told her, and turned,"You should not come with me, if something happens to me there, can you promise to look after Jeremy and our goal? Please?" I begged her, when she closed her eyes scrunching them, "I can't let you go all alone there. I can't. Please don't force me," She said to me, when I sighed, really frustrated. "You can't! One of us has to survive to kill him." I asked her, when she just tried understanding.
"Perhaps you should also not go. We loose many man, one more." She just shrugged like it mean nothing, "It's not about man, it's about revenge." I told her, she frowning, "Are you going crazy? You can't do that alone, I thought you ere joking earlier, tell me it is a joke. Spanish are sick! I have met there boss in parties! He is piece of shit! He have no respect and manner at all. And fuck manners! Us Italians at least have dignity. They have none. They are sick! You can't even think about something terrible like that! Please!"She turned worried for me, but all I was able to see was saving that man. And coming with the head of the person who cut James.
"Fine! Fine!" She sadly said yes, and turned to see the people leaving. When she was asked to come and give the permission for right, and also the Capo walked here, in black, as he and the Capa stood closing there eyes and prayed for him. Do they do only for the Martyr?
I wondered to myself, they ended the prayer and the Capo walked past me staring at me, he crossed and walked away.

I was sitting on the ground floor, where he and I use to sit all the time Jake walking towards me, James gift pillow in my hand while I cried and again and again, no matter how much i would try? I just can't bring myself to stop. I can't stop! His things. His actions his behaviour everything was in front of me, "Jake?"I called when he hugged me, trying to calm me. Everyone here were equally sad, they were not crying but they all were looking really sad. It was already time for changing shift. The other guys walking inside, and looking at us all being sad.
"Oh! The great Almighties are crying? Like baby! Wae Wae!" they made fun of our emotions but I don't care at all. These bastards dont know who james even an ounce. I just don't give a shit. I ignored them, but things got out of hand, "Why? Are you crying guys? Think about his hot sister! Out there. Who is all alone now! Who calls the dibs?" He screamed and walked inside raising his hands.
Seriously? Dibs? How can they be such an asshole. "Shut of Lex! Even though he was associate. He was a martyr. If he died recklessly. You could have called the dibs, but not at the martyr's family," the top dog's words disgusted me.
Do they mean that when someone dies randomly, they call dibs?
"Fine!" the other top dog sat down, "so? Go shifts are changed." He said and asked them to leave, while I just watched them getting ready and started to walk out, they all turned to look at me, trying to send me some powers, "Why? Aren't you taking that whore with you all?" the Lex guy asked but at the all the other associate removed there weapon at him or punches pointed at him, what is that? I thought to myself, as well as the Lex guy repeated, "What the fuck? Are you all pointing your guns and knives at me for a whore who have been send here by the boss for our enjoyment? Really?" He shockingly asked, and turned to see me with an nodding face.
"Impressive!" He complimented but that wasn't one. "Take her with you."He said but then his member interrupted.
"Boss she is the girl who is ready to go to the Spanish for trading." He said to him informing, while he raised his brows, "Ohhh?" he dragged it and stood taking the knives off from the way, "Well, in that case,-"He left it incomplete, when a voice of David came from behind, looking at me and him."The underboss asked for seeing her, part!" He demanded.
Underboss? The father of the Capo? The one who almost killed me last time? I wondered to myself and stood at David's gaze, "The underboss? Seriously? Even we haven't met him personally! We have been working here for years now! And yet!" The guy got pissed, his hysteric eyes settled at me wierdly. I walked towards the David guy. While he too started to walk away. Taking me upstairs I following his pace.
I went up and then towards the elevator which I don't know existed. If it did why did Mileva always had me going with the stairs? I wondered to myself. "He is the underboss. And nothing compared even if you join all the three Capo's maintained your words and actions. He doesn't forgives mistake," He tried to warn me with things I don't know and I did take notes on somethings that's all. "Why do you care you hate me anyways you must wish that I should die don't you?" I asked dhim teasing him but he nodded without feeling hesitation or how must I feel. He walked past me out of the elevator, as I saw the boss of all the three evil son sitting on the big chair I've the top if stage like space inside the house, a real life lion in a cage beside him.
Oh my fucking god! I wondered to myself, and then looked at the face of old man. Recognizing him in seconds, while he tried to read me, "You yet haven't gave in the USB?" He asked me, when I just nodded, "Yeah, abandon your second son. Its all yours," I didn't care that they were sitting on the couch behind when I just asked him. He raising his eyebrows. "I heard you are insisting on going to the Spanish? To get your revenge and the man out?" He asked me, but I shakes my head.
"The order of words are wrong. First save that man and then kill him" I told him when he rissed his eyebrow and stood from his place, he slowly started to take steps towards me, and smiling with a evil eyes resting on me, "Indeed you are sr.Jade's daughter. Fearless like him and ambitious! With kindness!" He complimented me, making me little feeling good but then he raised my chin, "But that kindness got him killed," He muttered making me felt terrible right now but then he let go of the chin and looked the other way, "That man! He was kind to everyone! The people in problems in troubles. In pain. Everyone. He was such a good man that he was even kind with people who didn't deserved his kindness. The back stabbers who take all his kindness and then back stab him. But he would still smile and just take it in.
He was such a stupid man, that I feel bad for him even now, he makes me believe in human kind and have faith in this cruel world but how can I? When I know the truth the reality if the world? When I know that trusting and loving someone as there dear will just one day get you killed because of it. How can just let him be such a fool and take his advice if being the same? I won't! And see I didn't! And here I am better! Hundred times better that then man. Why? Because I am alive! Why? Because I didn't show the kindness. "He said to me but his words and his explanation had some ulterior motives behind him. He turned and again walked towards me and smiled at me.
"Having you in the crew will be like getting my very old friend back to like. Because you have everything like him the freshness the give the power the brain the truth and reality, that sets and brights you. You are perffeto!" He said and smiled. "But don't act that kind like him. He was foolish for doing that. And you doing the same so don't. I would love to see you join our crew to be part of the organisation with the freshness you behold. But don't be stupid like your father, so tat you can just be the death! "He said to me making me question more things right now.
"I am offering you to officially join our crew? How do you think? As soon as you say yes you will be the female soldier if the organisation, first female soldier at your father's place as his inheritor. And will be at the highest post. Because you deserve it! And your training will be on. And that you will join the crew you don't hand over the USB keep it with you. Because we believe in our soldiers! Hs creepingly smiled making me doubts on too many things.
"What do you say?" He asked me, and extended a gun ahead of me making me take it, while I looked at it and oy thought about one thing, the first thing, that I should pick it up and shoot the man sitting on the couch and get it end over with. But I dibt want to kill him so easily. He needs to be torture to the point he stops feeling anything. And just beg me to met him go and save himself to make him cry in tears of blood. Disrupt his life like mine and my brothers.
"Come on? What are you thinking? Take it! This belongs to your father." He said to me making me look up, "He use to use this?" I asked him when he shaked his head, "No not like that, it belongs to him means he was killed by this gun," He said sending me in slumber of pain. Another. When I asked him directly with no filter on my face, and my words, "Who killed him?" I asked, his eyes filling bright and smile on his face, "I did."
