I awoke to a knock on the door.
"Come in" I said, sleepily. I squinted to try to see who was at the door but eventually gave up.
Andrew stood by the door. "Come down for breakfast. We're having a meeting"
I furrowed my eyebrows as a sign of confusion. It was so early, who would want to meet with me so early? Who would like to meet with me?
I rubbed at my eyes before nodding. "Give me twenty minutes".

I stumbled down the stairs and into the dining room, half asleep.
The first thing I saw was a bunch of food. It looked like some kind of Thanksgiving feast.
There was exaggeratedly large plates sitting on the table. They all contained different breakfast foods.
Pancakes, waffles, hash brown, ham, toast, eggs, and potatoes. Basically everything people usually eat for breakfast.
In the middle there was three different pitchers. Orange juice, coffee, and water.
The last thing I noticed was that sitting around the table was Kyle, Damien and Andrew.
Rosely and some other unknown maids put more plates on the table.
"Nova! Finally!" Kyle said. Sarcasm dripped from his words.
"Good morning" I took a seat beside Andrew.
Although I was curious to know what was going on, I wasn't going to question it. I knew better than that.
I turned to face Andrew and gave him a light smile.
Andrew smiled back before turning back to face Kyle. From the corner of my eye I thought I saw Damien roll his eyes.
"So.. Andrew said this was a meeting. I'm the only girl here. Am I special because I trained yesterday?" I asked Kyle.
Kyle snorted and shook his head. "Every girl trained, they have to do our work so you're not special in that aspect. What makes you special is that you're the bosses' girl and because of that... you're going to be doing double. We have to review what you're going to be doing and make sure that you're capable of doing it. Physically and mentally" he explained.
"Okay" I replied, although I wasn't fully understanding what he was saying to me. "Since I'm the 'boss's' girl, why isn't he speaking?"
"I'm the boss. Kyle is the manager. He does all the speaking when it comes to things like this but I'm glad you miss the sound of my voice" Damien smirked.
Andrew laughed and I sighed. "Keep talking" I instructed Kyle.
Kyle immediately looked over at me. He stared at me long and hard. "You know what... we'll discuss some more after breakfast" Kyle announced.
The boys all linked hands. Andrew held out his hand, which I took.
What was going on?
The boys all lowered their heads.
They were praying, I realized.
Who would've thought that these badass guys would pray? I mean... there isn't anything wrong with it but it's completely unexpected. Why would they anyway? They shoot and murder. Wouldn't everyone in the church despise them? Especially God?
"All of us are forgiven for our sins." Kyle told me after seeing that I was obviously confused.
Yeah, after you confess and repent. I wonder if they knew the extra detail but I wasn't going to be the one to enlighten them.
