Mafia's Weakness

Chapter 25 | Henrys pov (Flashback) part 2

Henry's PoV (25 years ago)

I sat in the diner for another 5 minutes finishing Vince's fries.I kept staring at the money He left on the table contemplating on weather to take it or not after some hard thinking I picked it up and counted it.

"Three hundred dollars" I gasped under my breath

I imagined what I could do with it I could buy some clothes,food and even have enough to stay in a hotel for a night I hesitated but I stood up and put the money safely in my pocket I picked up the plates and took them over to the counter where the older lady was.

"Thank you for the food" I thanked her and put the plates next to her

"Your welcome dear" she smiled I nodded

"Hold on a sec" she said and rushed out I looked confused until she ran back out with something in her hand

"Here take this" she said and handed me what looked like a burger wrapped up.

"Thank you so much" I smiled

"Have a good night miss" I said

"Call me Mel please come back anytime dear" she said I nodded and left the diner.

On my way back to the alley I called home I was about to unwrap the burger but saw a homeless man sitting against the wall he looked like he needed it more so I walked over and handed it to him as well and fifty dollars he thanked me and I walked off down the street then I felt a rain drop on my face.

*BANG*BANG*

I jumped when I heard what sounded like a gunshots I stood frozen for a sec thinking about running in the opposite direction but me being me decided to head straight towards it thinking someone could have been shot.

I started running towards the direction the shots went off until I made it to what looked like a scrap yard but when I got there a familiar car was left at the entrance still running there was also another black car which I didn't recognise the tires where flat and the car was smashed up and the doors where still open as I got closer I recognised it.

It was vince's car

I quickly ran to it to see if there was anyone inside the cars and saw it was empty. I heard shouting coming from inside the scrapyard so I ran into the scrapyard until I got close to hear who it was and what they where saying I hid behind a container and peaked around the corner to see I gasped.

It was Vince and another male kneeling next to a body of a kid there was also another man with his back to me he was pointing a gun at them and shouting.

"Not so tough now are we" the man laughed

"Fuck you!" Vince cried while holding onto the kids body the other man next to the kid was pressing down on the boys stomach also sobbing

"Come on son stay with me" vince begged

I couldn't just stand here and watch someone die knowing I could at least help them even if that means risking my own worthless life.

"I never thought I'd see the day the mighty Mafia don die and I'm the one to do it" the man sneered

I was eating with a fucking Mafia don of course it make sense now his name Vincenzo the Italian Mafia's Don's name is Vincenzo Lombardi the richest man in the country I've heard people talk about him when I was begging on the streets. I heard how ruthless and cold he is I heard how he would kill anyone that crossed him but he was the only person that showed me kindness and I needed to repay him for that.

I started to look for something I could use until I saw a metal pole I grabbed it quietly making sure he doesn't hear me.

"Your not going to get away with this" Vince shouted
