We arrived at a old, small house. James, Matthew and Henry were standing outside, waiting.
Will asked, "Why are you guys standing outside?"
James replied, "Some lady in there wouldn't let us in."
Will nodded, "Let me try." He knocked on the door.
A lady answered, "Coming!"
She opened the door and asked, "What do you want?"
Will answered politely, "Hello, is you daughter home right now?"
She looked at Will suspiciously, "Who are you?"
"I'm her friend."
She replied, "She has no friends. I'm sorry, but you got the wrong person."
She was about to close her door when Will stopped it.
"Are you her mother?"
She rolled her eyes, "So what if I am? You're still not coming in."
Emily walked downstairs and asked, "Who is it, mom?"
She looked at Will standing outside and blushed.
Emily's mom snapped, "What are you doing holding my door? Go."
Emily said, "Wait, mom. Let him in."
Emily's mom growled, "Fine, but only you. The three thugs outside will have to stay."
Will winked, "You heard that, thugs?"
James, Matthew, and Henry nodded though they were pissed.
Emily looked at Will shyly and asked softly, "Would you like something to drink?"
Will replied, "No thank you. I..." He looked at Emily's mom who stood there with her arms crossed looking at them.
Emily said, "Oh. Mom, I like to talk with this guy without you here."
Her mom scowled, but walked into her room.
Emily fluttered her eyelashes and said sweetly, "My mom's gone. What did you want to say to me?"
Will looked at her strangely, "Are you okay?"
Emily spoke softly as she touched Will's face, "Do you always look this hot?"
Will blushed and thought 'Is she hitting on me?'
He asked, "She's your mother? Where's your father?"
Emily's smile changed to sadness as she replied, "My dad was killed."
Will asked, "By who?"
Emily replied, "By the boss of KillSkies."
"How do you know he killed your dad?"
"Because my mom told me about it."
"But, do you know the boss of KillSkies? Personally?"
"No. All I know about him is he's a cold, heartless bastard who killed my dad."
Will thought 'It seems like she forgot about the past.'
"How do you know your mother was telling the truth?"
She looked at him weirdly, "She is my mother. Why would she lie to me?"
Will asked softly, "Do you trust me?"
Emily smiled, "Of course."
Will whispered, "Then, I'll tell you a secret. I knew your father."
She gasped, "You did?"
"Yes, but he wasn't killed by the Boss of KillSkies. He died because of liver poisoning. Your father used to gamble and drink a lot."
She glared at me, "Don't talk like that about my father. My mom told me he was a highly religious priest and he never drank."
Will thought 'What kind of bull shit is her mom feeding her?'
Will said, "Fine. Don't believe me. I guess I'll be leaving now."
Emily apologized softly, "I didn't mean to. I'm sorry."
Will mumbled, "Its okay."
Emily waved, "Bye! Please come another time."
Matthew asked, "So how did it go?"
Will growled, "Her mother's been telling her lies about her father. She thinks her father is a priest."
Henry laughed, "That old drunkard?"
James asked, "What else did you talk about with her? Anything special?"
Will mumbled, "I think she likes me. She was hitting on me."
Matthew smacked his head, "Oh great!"
Will snapped, "But I don't like her. If you think I'm the type of person to steal a best friend's girlfriend, I'll kill you."
James grinned, "She likes you? That's not a bad thing."
Will berated, "What the hell are you talking about?"
James explained, "It's actually quite simple. Apparently, she completely forgot about the past. Therefore, she only trusts her mom who's been telling her bullshit. However, since she likes you, you can gain her trust. Then, you tell her more about Boss and who knows? She might remember Boss."
Will shouted, "You want me to go out with her?"
James grinned, "It's not like you actually like her. You're just using her trust to help her remember about Boss."
"Then, you're saying I should be a manipulative bastard?"
Henry replied, "I agree with James. Remember. You're doing this for Boss. Do you want him to stay in a comatose state forever?"
Will reluctantly agree.
