"So what do you guys do when a fight breaks out?".
They were in the car, Elias driving at a steady speed rate as they were on their way to the event.
"We don't fight, at least no brawls or gun fights but there can be exchange of words", Elias replied.
"How come?".
"We're guided by a law. No one cares if yuh meet your worst enemy, throw just a punch and yuh will be taken out".
"By taken out, you mean-".
"Killed".
"So even bad mob bosses obey this rule?".
"Prutus, there's no bad or good mob boss, thug king or mafia. We are just who we are".
"So there are people who decide these rules and the others just follow?".
"Yes, just a handful. Rule Makers".
"How do you guys choose these people?".
Elias shrugged.
"The most powerful and wealthiest are usually respected by everyone be it friend or foe. It's the respect that makes it possible to create the rules".
"But what if I don't respect you?", Esther pressed on.
"Then try to kill me and take my place, claim my woman. Prove you're stronger".
"Are you close with those people?".
"I am one of those people prutus so is Joe. Yuh dad used to be but after that accident when yuh was little, it passed to Joe".
"So someone like Joe could be making bad decisions for us!", Esther yelled.
"That's why he's not the only Rule maker".
"No wonder my dad wants me to marry you so badly".
Elias replied with a smile.
They finally got to their destination.
Esther shielded her eyes from the dazzling light.
The building was shining gold.
She quickly wrapped her arm around Elias' as there were so many people walking around.
"With me prutus at all times".
"Didn't plan on letting you go anytime".
Esther saw her parents, her aunt and uncle and waved to them with a small smile.
Ky'mon frowned.
He didn't expect her to be here.
A woman approached them.
"Don Sai", the woman greeted.
"Arabella", Elias acknowledged.
She looked at Esther.
"Well, if it isn't the one and only Esther Bells, daughter of Ky'mon and Motiesha Bells, cousins of the Kona-Reys".
Esther frowned.
She didn't like how the woman knew everything about her.
"You, my dear will be the brightest star tonight", she squeezed Esther's cheek then walked away.
"Ignore her, she knows everybody. She's a busy body and a known-, I don't wanna say slut but she herself embraces it".
"What did she mean brightest star?".
"She might introduce yuh to everyone".
"She can do that?".
"Yes".
