The Mafia Story (book one complete)

Chapter 13: finding what was lost

I sit in the computer desk and look up more about the where house my brother is in as Ronnie walks and says can we talk? i look at him and say yeah whats up? he sits down and looks at me and says i'm sorry i didn't tell you about your brother and your mom its just i promised your dad that i wouldn't tell you about it because he didn't want you to think differently of your brother and mom. i look at him and say why would i think differently about them? because if you did the other parts of the Mafia would take them out he said as he looks at me, i sigh and say well i wouldn't treat them differently but i guess we would never now, well we? i turn back to the computer and keep doing research as i say answer one question and if you answer honestly and i'll forgive you, he nods and say ok as he looks at me and i turn around and ask did you know my real mom? he sighs and looks down and looks me in the eyes and says you were a one night

stand baby and then nine months went by and you arrived on your dads door step and your dad didn't what to do so he raised you the best he could until your brothers mom and your brother came along and he would you to grow up with memories of a family rather its a broken family or not he wanted you to have memories of a family then having to wonder if your mom ever loved you or wanted you. i look down and asked what about the man in the picture? why am i in a picture with Danny's dad? Ronnie looks at me and says i honestly don't know why your dad never said why you are in the pictures. i look down and look back to the computer as i say thank you and i forgive you, he smiles and nods, and says somebody was gonna have to tell you sooner or later, i nod and look at him and say thank you for telling me, he nods and says well i'll leave you alone and let you find out more, I nod and say thank you, as he walks out and i turn around i

hear what sounds like i graint shaking the house, I run out into the living room to see Brantley and Jesse pinning each other against walls as i look at Vinny and ask what the hell happened? why are they fighting? he bearly looks at me as he shrugs his shoulders, i sigh and pull out my gun and shoot a bullet through the roof as everybody stops what they are doing in the their tracks and look at me as i yell what the fuck are you two fighting about? Ronnie looks at me and says well from what i heard when i walked out from talking to you that they are fighting about you. i look at them as Jesse looks at me and ask whats going on between you and Brantley? i look at him and ask what do you mean whats going on between me and Brantley? Jesse looks at me and says oh come on Riley! i know he followed you and Vinny to the old lake house and i saw you and him when i got here all over each other! were you sleeping with him? i look at him and say Jesse the

only person i've been sleeping with is you!! ok! i didn't know Brantley followed us and i was hugging him beause i was upset i can't help that he hugged me back!, i can't help that he thought you were the police and wanted them to him first! i can't help that! now if there was i problem about how i feel both of you should of came to me and talked about it instead of act like to little punks fighting over something as stupid as a hug! they both look at me and say ok fine then pick one of us, lets end it right here, right now. i look at both of them and say fuck you both, my brother is kidnapped and possibly being beaten if he's still alive! and all you two are worried about is who i'm gonna bang everyday? well you know what its ether of you! i walk through them and walk outside slaming the door behind as i walk to where the sand and the water meet and sit down in between the two all by myself not wondering, not caring if the cops come pick me up or not just

feeling numb as a tear falls i feel somebody sit next to me. i look over to see Vinny as he looks out into the sea as he says i'm sorry i haven't been talking to you its just when the bomb went off you pushed me out of the way and took most of the blow and i felt like it was my fault that you died, if it wasn't for me you'd would of got out of there faster and wouldn't of gotten that hurt and i'm sorry. i look over at him and ask you want to know what i saw when i saved you and when i died? he looks at me and nods as i look out into the sea and say my life didn't flash before my eyes the only thing that did was saving you and my mom and dad, i saw them but i wasn't able to hug them or touch them or even say anything to them the only thing i heard was my dad say theres still more for you to learn and do and then i came back and ever since then i wonder what he meant by that

and now i know. i look at him and say i don't regret saving you Vinny your family i'll always save family vinny so don't ever feel like its your fault that i saved you. he nods and looks at me and hands me a piece of paper and asks your gonna go by yourself to save him aren't you? i look at him and say maybe i don't know yet but maybe i don't want to get anyone hurt beside this is my brother no one else's. He looks at me and says i don't think you should go alone we don't need you to get hurt or worse, i look at him and say Vinny i need my family alive and that means all of you stay here while i save my brother, he nods and looks at him and say i guess i already know your answer i look at him and say maybe.
