Mafia Story 3

"I'm home." You take your shoes off "Not that anybody will ever answer..."

You've been alone for months now. You walk inside the dark apartment and lit up the lights. Falling on the couch you sigh as you check your phone. Although the weekend is tomorrow, you have no outing planned as all your friends are busy. You need to do some homework, because University isn't just some easy peasy walk. Nonetheless...

"I wonder when he'll come back home." You mumble to yourself

Hyunjin. Your older brother by three years. He is the last family you have. You both lost your parents during a car accident. Some say that your parents suicided because no faults were found on the car. You were there. Barely alive, but you remember everything.

You shake your head to drive the memories out. Not now. You've had your grieving time. Your brother always took care of you. You never knew how, but for the last four month you've had some suspicions. Each Friday, a stack of bills appeared like magic on the dining table with always the same note 'Living expenses. Take care. H.'

The amount of money was always huge. You saved all of it into a common bank account between the two of you that your parents leaved for you. You used as little money as possible and worked part-time in a cafe during high school. University was too busy for part-time, but still...

You stand up go to take a shower and change into one of Hyunjin's shirt and pink panda panties and walk out of the bathroom. You pass by the dining table.

"Uh?"

The usual stack of bills is not there. You frown and reach out for your phone that remained on the couch. At the same time, you hear the sound of the door unlocking. You don't have the time to turn around that your brother stands there. He looks as flawless as always

"Eli. Pack your stuff."

That's the first words he says. It already happened two or three years ago and you just both got away from your old apartment. Hyunjin bought a new one and proceeded to disappear again as usual. Coming back once every two month.

"Hyun, it's been-"

"Pack. Panda panty."

You turn around surprised by the voice. How did he even come in? He looks cheeky, but the light breeze that entered the living room is enough for your oversized shirt to have risen.

"Hyunjin, you need to give me some explanations." You turn back to your brother who is already walking through the apartment "Hyun!" You exclaim

"I'll take her."

You turn around to ask the stranger to just leave you alone, but he already lifts you up in the air. You scream but his shoulder blade is killing your stomach.

"I.N. help Hyunjin!" another voice is heard from the stairs

"Yes Hyung!" the voice sounds younger and you see a black haired man approximately your age walk past you "Changbin Hyung, she can't breathe." He sings

The man stiffens under you and puts you down. You glare at him but he remains expressionless.

"Chan deal with her." Changbin speaks "I'm not good with kids." He calls out leaving you alone as he walks out.

Before you can turn around to go to your room, someone grabs your forearm. The man in front of you as a kind smile and tilts his head to the side.

"I'm Bang Chan. Elina right?" He says

The palm on your forearm is warm. You nod looking at him. For some reason, you feel like you can trust that man. There is a certain ease with how he talks and how he behaves.
