There is nothing to do. I found the people, killed them all. Turns out we just had a rat in our mafia, and they were looking for our shipment levels.
Now I am graveling so fucking hard. She won't talk to me, so the most I have been doing is sending good night and good morning paragraphs to her.
I stepped back from the mafia, and if Juliet doesn't forgive me, then I am stepping back indefinitely. I would never forgive myself.
I was now in the baby's room. I have been working on it for the last couple of days. It is the only thing that makes me feel close to Juliet.
I didn't know the gender of our baby, so I was going with neutrals and a lot of baby animals. Juliet has always been an animal lover, so I thought it would be perfect.
"Hey man," Dutch said. I didn't turn around or even acknowledge him, "What are you doing?"
"What does it look like," I grumbled, continuing with folding some clothes I ordered.
"Dude, are you okay?" Dutch said, sounding very concerned. He put a hand on my shoulder, trying to get my attention.
I shrugged him off, turned towards him, and said. "What do you think? The love of my life won't talk to me because I made a stupid mistake. A mistake that I could've prevented. Prevented, Dutch! Now she is at your house with your girlfriend and not here with me," I looked away from him but quickly turned towards him again, "Oh I forgot to mention she's pregnant. I am currently assembling a room just for them, and I might never get to meet them. And whose fault is that? No one other than mine! Just leave Dutch. You're probably just here to rub it into my face that I am a terrible person."
With that, I stormed out of the room and walked into my room.

Juliet: Hey!
Dutch: Juliet?
Juliet: What's wrong?
Dutch: Bryce. He isn't doing very well.
Juliet: What? What do you mean?
Dutch: I just popped in because I haven't heard from him in a few days. Especially since I needed to go over some documents for the mafia, but I got his father. But that's not what I am concerned about. It is what he was doing and what he said afterward.
