MY MAID AND I (Once upon an us)

Chapter 60

Alex

Ethan, Chris, Chase, Tina, Jess, Rick, Fred, Sophie and I were sitting awkwardly and nervously at the dining table, waiting for mum to discuss whatever she wanted to discuss with us.

"What is going on? I need to pee" Sophie announced and stood up

"Sit down!" Everyone yelled in unison at her

She raised her hands in surrender, "okay, chill guys" She said in shock

"Good evening kids" Mum greeted with a firm smile

"Hey mum"

"Hey Lynn" others greeted

"I haven't done this dinner in a long while but don't be so tense, it's nothing serious" Mum said and the rest looked a bit relaxed

"Alex, Sophie, Fred, Ethan and Chris.......you all attend Royal High and from what the principal told me, your finals are coming up in two weeks and apparently you haven't been reading. Alex and Sophie have been to busy with their new friendship, Ethan and the rest I have no idea what you're doing"

"Mum...we....

" Shut it Roy" She snapped at me, making Chase snicker

"You're in your final days of high school, can you please make efforts to pass your exams? I know this is hard on you with all the gang stuff"

We all snapped our heads to look at her and she smiled at our reactions

"You didn't possibly think I wouldn't know.....Your father and I got married and Black Eagles was led by your dad even before I met him" she said with a reminiscent sigh

"So....you remember Sierra?" I blurted out and Sophie tensed up, so I placed my palm on her thigh and she visibly calmed down.

"I don't think so..."

"Mum, The Williams, your business partners" I reminded her with a scowl

"Yes I remember honey, they all died didn't they?" She asked and Sophie sighed

"Mum, meet Sierra Rose Williams, their daughter" I said and motioned my hand towards Sophie

"Hello Lynn" Sophie said with teary eyes and a small smile

A tear rolled down mum's face as she stared at Sophie

"Sierra? I'm so sorry" Mum suddenly bursted into tears as she pulled Sophie into a hug

The girls had started sniffling and crying at the scene. The guys hid their tears of course and continued drinking their wine.

"I heard from Dean that you killed my parents" Sophie said and Mum gave a sad smile

"We would never do that my dear, we had business issues but we wouldn't kill them. Your mother was my best friend and you and Jason were very special to me"

"Then how'd they die?"

"Colins and Camila were friends but they were in the opposing gang, Crimson Eagles. We didn't let our friendship be known to the world or anyone else because we were afraid this would go bad.

We had a major argument over joining an Italian gang, they thought it wasa bad idea but we just wanted Black Eagles to be so known in the underground world so much that we didn't think well enough. We secretly accepted the offer and started working on expanding B.E.

The first gang we were assigned to attack was Crimson Eagles but we couldn't do it. They did it instead. The Italians killed your parents Sierra" She ended as a sob escaped her lips
