Today is the day for the shipment to come through. My men were all informed and were ready to take the delivery. They informed me about the details regarding the shipment and the deal is signed and done.

     I was just relaxing at my penthouse because I know my men are capable enough in handling these shipments. We are getting a lot of profit from this deal. My best men are assigned at the port because we can't afford any mistakes.

     I don't know why but my thoughts took me to that girl. I can't get her out of my head and those eyes it's like I have seen them. That girl was something else, coming into my house without my permission needs guts.

     She was hell scared I could see that, and she should be I am not a normal guy. I kill people without any conscious, and deal with dangerous people. The world that I live in is not normal at all.

     In the midst of thinking I heard my phone ringing, it's my main men Enzo. I picked up the phone,"Pronto!"  I spoke. "Capo, we got a problem here" he spoke through the phone.

     I got alerted by that I could hear in his voice that something has gone wrong. " What problem" I said getting up from my couch.

"We were under attack by our enemies" he said and that made me furious. How is this possible, we planned very meticulously and kept the information with only few people who were assigned for this mission so how did this happened.

"Continua" I said to him to go on. "Our shipment got stolen by the enemy and we lost few men too" that made me more furious. I threw the vase that was near me to the wall, this wasn't suppose to happen.
    
     This was a huge loss, I wasn't hoping for this, my people are really good in what they do and loosing them is a big blow to our strength and unity.
     
"Capo can you hear me" he said because I wasn't listening to him till now with other thoughts coming into my mind." Si, how many men" I asked. " Four and we lost Pietro" He said.
 

     That was the last straw of my sanity I couldn't hear more

     That was the last straw of my sanity I couldn't hear more. We lost Pietro, he was with us for almost a decade. A good and honest men, well respected, a warrior, he never failed in any mission and most importantly he got a family too. What will I tell his wife rosa, she was pregnant with there first child. She would be devastated by this news.
 
     This is the toughest part in our business to tell the family member about there loved one is no more. My mind wasn't prepared for this, It was suppose to be a successful mission and not a disaster.

     I tried to calm myself, and called Enzo back to tell him to take care of the injured men and prepare for the funeral of the deceased ones. I also told him to meet me at my penthouse.

     He came after an hour and told me what and how things gone wrong there in detail. By hearing him I got to know that the enemies were well prepared for the attack that means they were informed way earlier about  this.

     And suddenly something clicked into my mind. That girl who came to give me that file. I was paranoid at that time too because she wasn't suppose to have that file.
 
     I told Enzo about this and he told me that the file was suppose to given by our men, so how come that girl had that file. And that's where we have gone wrong.
 
     Something in my mind is telling me that girl is somehow related in all this that has gone wrong and if it's true she will have to take the bullet.
