The Cut That Always Bleeds

TW// MAFIA

"He killed your sister, Rush! He murdered Ana!" Jahn screamed.

I was taken aback. I felt numb. I hear Jonah and Jahn screaming but all I could hear was a ring in my head.

"Wha..what?" I whisper, barely audible.
"I didn't-"
"Shut the heck up!" I interrupt Jonah, crying, enraged, hurt and broken.
"Did I.. Did I really start loving a person that murdered my sister?" I start sobbing uncontrollably.
"Love?" Jonah says, his face heartbroken.
I look at him and then at Jahn.

"How.. why did you do that? What did she do to you.. What?" I ask him.

"I will tell you. So listen.." Jahn says.

FLASHBACK:

JAHN'S POV:

"Ana. You won't go to him, at any cost." I tell Ana.
"I don't care. Jonah will be there anyway, he's like a brother, Jahn. Nothing will happen to me. Don't be scared." Ana laughs.

"You don't need to go into the rabbit hole yourself, stupid! It's dangerous." I tell her.

I see her looking at Rush.

"Not for me, but for her. I need to go. I'm sorry." She says.
"Don't do it.. We will find any other way." I look at her, requesting.

I see the incoming call from Roman on her phone.
"Time's up, I guess." She smiles.
"Don't go. Just do me this one favour and don't leave." I request with tears in my eyes.

Roman, he is a monster. Mafia. He plays this game, taking girls to himself. He wanted Ana.
He said if we don't give her Ana, he will get to Rush. Ana thinks Rush is really young to go through such kind of things.

Ana thinks it's her fault because she was at a party a few weeks ago, where Roman was there as well. She thought he's a nice person but no.
Now he says he needs her anyhow. He started stalking and calling her ,"his". Ana told all of this to me. I could not do anything.

"Hello, J?"Ana speaks on the phone.
"I'm leaving. Take care of Jahn and Rush." Ana says, her voice shaking.

No matter how much she pulls that brave face over, she is nervous and scared inside. I wish there was a way, I want to be there for her, to help her. I wish it was me instead.
I will do everything in my power to save her.

Ana went to her room to pack clothes. I take my car keys and left. I search for Jonah.

I see Jonah standing in a black dress, in front of Roman. The monster is yhere.
After seeing me, Jonah runs to me.
"Jahn! What are you doing here? It's dangerous." He says.

It started raining.

"Dangerous? What about my little sister who has to stay with this monster, for..forever." My tears mixed with rain drops.

Jonah looked down, having no reply for my statement.
"Already Rush is losing one, if you stay, she will lose another. Not only Roman, but his friends are here as well. Please leave." Jonah says with a dead serious expression.

I run crying to my car. I hide my car, waiting for Ana to come. I want to see her for the last time.

RUSH'S POV:

Jahn said she had to go somewhere, so she left. I went to search for Ana.

"Anaaaa?" I say.
"Rushhhh?" She mimics, laughing.
She was packing something.

"Hey, what are you doing?" I sit on her bed.
"I'm leaving for some days, urgent work." She sighs.

"Wait, no way. You don't get to leave! No!" I stand up, shocked.

"I have to Rush, sorry." She says.

"You always do this! Leave us! Why did you even come? Just to leave? Wow!" I scream with tears in my eyes and run away from her room.
"Rush! Listen!" I hear her say.

I run to my room. I started crying on the pillow. She came after so many months just to leave again! I can't live without her, she doesn't understand. I call Jahn.

"The number you're trying to reach is currently switched off."

Her phone was switched off. Great.

I was hiding my face in the pillow when I hear the door open and someone whisper,

"Goodbye."

The voice was crying, scared and sick. It was Ana's voice.

I ran back to the living room.

"Ana!?" I call out for her.
I see Olivia and Mary on the door, standing.

"Where is Ana?" I say breathless.
"She..she left." They say.

I go back to my room, feeling guilty since I did not even say a bye. There was no "good" in this "goodbye".

ANA'S POV:

To say, "I am scared" would be an understatement. I have talked to Roman, he's dangerous. I don't want to go to him, I want to stay with Jahn, with Rush. I don't want to leave them alone.

I feel nauseous and sick. The mere thought of spending the rest of my life as a toy for Roman is sickening.

I hate him. A lot but I would do anything to save my sisters.

I reach the place. I see him standing, smirking.
He was 24. He was wearing a black suit. People with guns surrounding him. I get out of my car, his people taking my things. I felt breathless and cold. I looked up to him, big mistake, shouldn't have.

I see him looking at me with an evil smirk. I had this urge to go and take the gun and shoot him. I can't.

"Baby." He says, making me cringe.
I ignore him.

He walks up to me, "c'mon, don't be like this." He laughs, making his friends laugh.

I felt so out of league and alone. I needed Jahn, Rush, Olivia and Mary.

Help me.
