Montreal High School

MHS: Seven

"So, your daughter was exposed on missions like my son?"

"Of course John. Right after her turning fifteen, I gave missions. And, I was kinda proud that she has the ability to finish her missions clean."

"Perks of having our child as a Mafia Boss" then both of them laugh like a mad man. Kinda scary and creepy.

Pero tumahimik si Dad.

"She isn't a Mafia Boss, John. I just give her missions, but never inclined on the Mafia World."

Naguluhan naman si Sir John. Well, kahit ako naguluhan, it never crossed my mind that we had a Mafia Business. Ang alam ko lang, legal ang business namin.

"What?! Your taking down your Blackwell Mafia Organization?"

Tumango ng marahan si Dad. "My wife doesn't want our children inclined on that Mafia already. So, as I retire, I'll be giving away my title, but I'll also give a chance on my children's handling it if they wanted to give rebirth of the Mafia."

"I understand" saad ni Sir John "Anyway, mind introducing her" 

"My Pleasure" then dad held me on my waist. Dad was tall at hanggang balikat nya lang ako. I frowned, why do men around me has to be tall?

"This is Heaven, my daughter. Heaven, meet my elementary to up to know friend. John Grande, Skie's father" 

"Nice meeting you Sir" I said, trying to keep the boredom on my voice

"Hmm, she may look fragile but, I trust her and my son. So? Can we talk about the mission?" 

Sabihin lang ang word na mission my system will scream excitement. Kailan ba ako last na nagkaroon nang Mission? Maybe months had past already. Now, I wonder, is this mission helds thrill?

---

Nasa library na kami ng Grande Mansion, dito daw kadalasan nagaganap ang mga importanteng mga paguusap na hindi pwedeng marinig  ninuman. So, I assume this mission was confidential. Naupo kami ni Skie na magkatabi pero wala muna akong pake don, my attention was fully on the mission. That comes first to me.

"So, what mission do we do?" pagtatanong ko, I tried to control my excitement pero nabakasan ata yon nila Dad and Sir John, cuz they gave me an amused look.

"Your thirsty of mission Young Lady"

"Sir, months already passed since my last mission. I wanna taste thrill now" seryoso kong sambit, tumango tango naman si Sir John bago sabihin ang mission namin. 

Mission's must be stated every small and big details, it must be super informative so that if you form a plan, you would make sure it doesn't have loopholes. Critical and Logical Thinking will be tested, and your physical, emotional and mental ability must be sharp and stable. Taking a mission means a lot, if ever your plan would fail, you must think fast and make an exit, once caught, your dead. Specially, were Mafia's and Mafia's screams unlawful actions. 

"You need to infiltrate this YAHWEH organization. And you need to get informative and helpful files to make this organization down. Knowing that this organization had spread branches on different places, we need to eliminate this. It screams threat on both Mafia and Government businesses, the Government can't touch them knowing that their reputation will be ruined. And because the Mafia picture was brought to threat, it is us who needs to move. And we, Grande and Blackwell will make the initiative. Tayo ang kilalang Mafia at malakas, kaya kailangan natin gumawa ng paraan, if not, our grown image will meet its downfall."

This mission was so serious. Once we failed this, we will meet our demise, plus our Mafia will meet its downfall. This was a dangerous one, and we need full information before moving, isang maling hakbang, baka mahuli kami. Isa pa, all Mafia's will expect our win. 

"How about our school?" tanong ko

"We'll talk to your principal. We will take care of it. Focus on your mission" tumango kami ni Skie

"Did you calculate how long will us to take?" umiling sila

"No, what we knew is, a month will be its minimum"  huminga akong malalim. This is such a pain on the ass

"The details?" tanong uli ni Skie, may inabot sa aming envelope si Sir John, inabot ko yon at binuksan. Maraming coupon's and photos ang laman. We need to review this. 

"Kami lang ba nag magkasama?" 

"Skie's gang will be the back up, and asked you dormmates if they are interested" naging grim ang expression namin

"My dormmates are out of it. So as Skie's gang. Kami na muna ang hahandle nito, they will be our back up only and other stuffs. Me and Skie will be the front liners here." tumango ulit sila

"Is this all?" 

"Yes. We will follow up you for other information" Tumango kami ni Skie at tumayo

"We'll use my car Dad. We'll review this. Expect our plan on the following days" hinila naman ako agad ni Skie hanggang sa makalabas.

Pero agad akong napatigil. "I expect your win, Heaven. Cause, your fiancé would be waiting."

Doon ako lalong nanigas, fiancé? Tumawa ako ng mapait. At hinarap si Dad.

"If that's the case, consider this mission done. But, don't you ever expect an alive daughter, back."

At hinila ko si Skie paalis ng mansyon nila.

Unbelievable! Akala ko tapos na kami sa usapan. I thought it was damn clear na wala ng kalokohang fiancé- fiancé na yan!

Hindi ko na pansin na umiiyak na pala ako. At mas lalong di ko napansin niyakap na pala ako ng Skie na ito.

"SHHH, don't you worry. Hindi lang ikaw ang frustrated sa pangyayaring ito. Me, also experienced arrange marriage, and hopefully, it all didn't work even its our Business was in line."

"You don't know how that fucking marriage ruined my life. So don't talk as if you fully understand!"

Tumawa naman sya ng pagak, "I truly know that I decided to leave the house and get my inherits using some connections. But after a year, my father called me and he fucking stopped the marriage just for me to come back home."

Napatigil naman ako. Pero akin ang mas malala, I already tried leaving wihtout my inherits, if only my brother didn't attempted to leave the house just so my parents would find me and get me back with our condition, they will never try finding me. That's how useless they see me after breaking there rules.

Could they blame me? Sinong anak ang matutuwang magulang ang pipili ng mapapangasawa ng anak nila?

Wala diba? Maski ikaw na anak kapag nalaman mong ikakasal ka sa hindi mo kilala at hindi mo mahal diba?

Matapos ng drama namin, sumakay kami sa kotse at hinayaan ko si Skie na mag drive sa kung saan. Ang nasa isip ko lang eh yung yakapan namin. Feeling ko kasi tumalon yung puso ko sa tuwa sa nangyari sa amin kanina.

Ano yon, spark?

Kung ano man yon, at least nakaramdam ako ng pagkakomportable sa kumag na ito at, mas lumambot ang loob ko sa kanya.
