Family Business

It was after Seven when Yuki called me for dinner. Man can she cook, I told her to teach me how to cook; so I won't be wasting my money all the time. We talked and laughed so I put the kids to bed. Then Uncle Ryan came in. He kissed his wife and finally hug me. I giggled a little bit cause my uncle is damn funny. Uncle? Yes, Lilly? Does my father know about your real job? No, he doesn't cause I have been lying to him all this year's cause that will put you in danger. My face was full of seriousness jokes aside.

Lilly why? Uncle Ryan, I knew my father was a  Mafia leader from the beginning since my middle school days and never spoken to my parents about his real job.

Her uncle Ryan and his wife were shocked plus speechless for some time, before responding. But at the same time proud of Lilly for not getting a law or her parents involved in this issue.

In all seriousness Uncle Ryan can you train me every morning before starting our day off. Hmm...hmm..is, not a bad idea at all. I'll text the boys early Morning before heading to work.

I hugged my Uncle Ryan and thanked his wife for the lovely meal. And headed straight to my room; change to my nightgown. I laughed to myself as I lay on my bed and then fell asleep while thinking about my training and other things.

(Edward POV)

I can't believe this girl is dooming my head in. I am trying to forget about her, her big bright green eyes, her lips, smile, and laugh. I love everything about this girl, but the problem is that I don't know her name or where she lives. "DAMN IT!" I am hopeless in love with this mystery girl with whom I shared half of the class. Then my phone rang. " Hello? (Mom: hey son?) " Hey, mom how are you doing?" ( Mom: I am fine thank you. How is school?) " School is ...okay mom. (Mom: is something bothering you?) " Am okay mom please don't worry about me." ( Mom: alright Ed. Make sure you come home this holiday season.) " Alright, mom loves you." (Mom: love you too Ed.)

I hung up the phone and I started reading a book while laying down half an hour later I drifted off to sleep.

It was five-thirty when my alarm went off. It was finally here, I rushed out of bed took a shower, and brushed my teeth. I was ready to kick ass.

Lilly? Yesss! Are you ready to head to the gym? Yes, sire. I rushed out of the room and met my uncle Ryan and crew. Now that we are here. I started with some jumping jacks, stretches, and lifting weights. Well, it's not my first here anyway, Alright Lilly are you ready?

I nodded. Good, let test your self-defense, okay. Hey Lukas? Yes, sir? This what you would do?

Okay, sire.

Lilly yes Lukas are you ready? I nodded just remembered this I won't go easy on you cause you the boss's niece got that!

Who said you needed to in the first place.

I sensed this smiled on his face. Are you have some fun?

Alright, Let's do this!

I want a good sparring match. Got that! Said Uncle Ryan. Okay, begin.

Lukas tries to punch me I dodged it. Out of nowhere, he kicked me to the side I fell. He moved so fast I even know he was behind me.

FUCK!

I won't be defeated this easily I grinding my teeth with frustration.

Giving up already said, Lukas. I am just getting warm up. I grin devilishly at my partner, and tossed him to the ground, I punched his face two or three times. Then he couched out blood, my uncle Ryan didn't stop our match, I and Lukas continued our match, I kicked him and use a secret move I learned from my dojo class.

Okay Lukas, enough. We both stop our spare match, I thanked Lukas for Sparing with me. He smiled and said you're strong, maybe surpass my uncle Ryan one day. Thanks, Lukas for your welcome.

Uncle Ryan, how did I do? He smiled at me and said, I did an amazing job. But My dear child who taught how to fight like that?

I told him everything without leaving any details out.

Oh, I see. ..am proud of you Lilly. It looks like you were having fun, you remind me of myself when I was young. I enjoyed fight so much that I got in deep shit with our parents. But your father my brother was stronger than me. I am glad our parents allowed us to defend ourselves. Your dad was fearless among us, always protecting me and my family all the time. He doesn't take shit from anyone who bad-mouths us.

Let just your dad was a monster, people fear him. So I look up to him as a hero and friend; he was silly, smart, good-looking, fearless, and putting family first. He was an inspiration for us, So when decided to settle down and start a family of this own. I was helping when you enter the world. Your dad told me to take care of you and protect you if you needed it.

I listened to my uncle Ryan spoke about my father, tears roll down my cheeks. I cried for the first since their death, I held to this chest as wipe bitterly for them.

"That bastard will pay for what they did to my parents."

"They'll ALL PAY!"

But uncle Ryan did grandpa knew about it. Yeah, he did. He was the first MAFIA leader after all. But both I and your grandpa knew the rightful heir?

Yeah, your dad. But our father knew your dad wasn't interested in taking part in the family business. So I stepped up and run things ruthlessly.

You Lilly carry this family fire in your eyes. You have the Same monster look in your Eyes as your father, but you work on techniques more.

Thanks, Uncle I will.

Are you taking your wife on a vacation for your anniversary? Yes, I am. I'll need someone to watch the boys for few days.

Don't worry that they're safe with me, go and enjoy your wife if you know what I mean? I smirk devilishly.

He laughed and said I will.

Are you ready to go home? Lilly? I nodded but am driving uncle no problem.

Ugh...what is it??

Some bastards are following us, uncle Ryan. Who TF is it.

Don't give rats but we'll are be going to lose them.

Lilly!. .. ...

I drove violently like a GTA gangster running from the cops.

I click my tongue irritation and drove more faster without crushing the car.

We lost them Uncle Ryan, good job Lilly.

Lilly? Yes, Uncle? ...... Who taught you how to drive like that?...

My father did. He knew that one day my life will be in danger. Without telling mama, we went to this favorite place he used to with you. Oh, I see, well being he did.

My brother is always hard working he never rests for a second. He always on a go all the time. But I see he changed a lot after having you. Well, this the first time my brother ever smiles or not working. It's also rare for him to show soft sides or weaknesses towards others.
