"I had confirmed that the information about Rocket joining forces with the Syndicate International was true. It is quite a disappointment that we had to get to this point where killing that woman will be close to impossible." Vito said. "I don't know why you wasted five fucking years just to kill that bitch, Regan. You're a disgrace to the organization."Nginisian naman niya ang lalaki. "Impossible?" aniya at mahinang natawa. "I didn't know that you're still the scared loser that you are way back, Vito. Why don't you just leave that woman in my hand and go back to Sicily? Besides, why are you even itching to kill Rocket?
"It's none of your goddamn business."
"I think that it's my damn business since that woman is my fucking property and I don't like it when someone is trying to touch what's mine. And you're calling me a disgrace to La Cosa Nostra?" he paused and scoffed. "You can't even make a way to find that bitch on your own and you think you can do this without my help?" he said and grinned at Vito. "You're not competent enough to be in this organization in the first place, Vito. Why don't you just go back to Sicily and suck your thumb while hiding behind East?"
Mukhang napikon naman ang lalaki dahil sa sinabi niya kaya lumapit ito sa kanya para kuwelyuhan siya. "Is that all you can mock to me, Montenegro? Aren't you satisfied with all I did to you, hmm? If you think that ain't enough, then fucking say it me so I can beat the shit out of you again. You talk a lot when you can't even defeat me by yourself." Vito answered before letting him go. "Besides, you have no rights to move against what I want because you might lose someone important to you."
Doon na natahimik si Regan. Nanguuyam namang ngumiti si Vito bago muling bumalik sa kinauupuan nito. After having a little debate with Vito, they discussed the possible routes that Syndicate International may take in this country. Vito's men came back, and they already accumulated the police force that gave them the information about the vehicles that Rocket used to escape yesterday. Sa isang hotel sila dinala ng kanilang impormasyon kaya naman agad silang umaksyon at nagtungo doon. Sakay sila ni Vito ng isang itim na Mercedes Benz habang nakaparada sa labas ng hotel at nagaantay lamang sila ng senyales para pasukin ang gusaling minamatyagan.
"Why did you leave the organization, Vito?" basag niya sa nakakabinging katahimikan. Tumingin naman sa kanya ang lalaki. "What happened to you? Where did you go?"
"Somewhere I don't need to tell you." anito bago muling binalik ang tingin sa labas ng sasakyan. "You may think that I'm not useful to the La Cosa Nostra but I have my own ways to be beneficial to the organization, Regan. Your job is better than I have but let me tell this to you. You can't beat someone without even knowing their capabilities and I already proved you that."
"You became a lot like him." Tugon ni Regan bago binaling ang paningin sa hotel. "I hope you're not going to get worst, Vito."
"I'm only doing my job in La Cosa Nostra. Our organization doesn't accept weak and if you can't go back to what you used to be then you don't deserve to be respected by me, Regan. I only give my outmost admiration to the people who don't give a fuck to other people and you disappointed me to the hell and back."
Natawa naman siya dahil sa sinabi nito. "People change, Vito. You did, too." Sagot niya sa lalaki. "I don't need your admiration for fuck's sake, man. Save that to yourself and I don't give a damn. One thing I learned about having a child is you'd do anything for the sake of their protection and one reason why the fuck I'm sitting beside you is that."
"Sei diventato davvero debole. (You really became weak.) Those people will only drag you to your death, Regan. And you can't protect someone if you're already dead." mahinang usal ng lalaki. Hindi naman niya ito inimik ngunit may ngising naka-ukit sa kanyang labi.
