"Papà, cosa c'è che non va?" I ask my father, because he's acting really strange.
[translation: Dad, what's wrong?]"Niente, figlio mio." He replies, and I can feel he's hiding something.
[translation: Nothing, my son.]"Papà, tell me please." I begin. "You're acting strange and stressed, is there something wrong with bussiness?"
"Yes, yes there is." He stammers. "Aloïs got shot, I'm sorry mio figlio he didn't make it."
This can't be true, I can't lose my best friend. "You're lying right? Right?" I ask, afraid that I know the answer to that.
It feels like my heart is being torn to pieces, my lungs are burning because I suddenly forgot how to breathe.
"How could this happen?" I shout, making my own ears ring.
"Figlio, be calm!" My father says, making me even more mad. "It was André Bellerose, he found out his own son betrayed him by entering us."
"We need to kill him, he has caused enough problems." I state, trying to calm myself down.
"It's not that easy, he's really smart and you know that." Mattia says. "He's really mysterious, no one knows anything about him or his business."
Mattia is a smart guy, but not as smart as Aloïs. I've known him for awhile now and sometimes he's a pain in the ass but he can be really funny. He's only 3 years older than me, making him 21 years old because I'm 18. With his buzz cut, endless tattoos and muscles he might seem intimidating but he's a real softy in the inside.
"But," He starts, making me curious. "we did find something, or someone, that's how I can say it better."
"What do you mean?" I ask, I'm a little confused.
"Listen, Aloïs was a good friend, I know." Mattia says. What does he mean by that? "But, he did keep some important secrets from us to keep his family safe."
"Like what?" I ask.
"Aloïs had a sister, whom is still alive." He starts. "She's named Eléa Bellerose, 17 years old and studies at Ennim's High School in West Town, and the most important thing is that she still lives with her father." He keeps talking, "So I have a plan, you'll enter her class and get to know her, you've been struggling with school that's why you needed to redo your last year, right?"
