The Toolbox [The Series 2] {Completed}

Chapter 12

Kyle smiles surprised to find his brother outside of his working place, so cleaning his hands on the towel he makes his way to greet his brother.

"Hey big brother, what a pleasant surprise" he grins before hugging Arson.

"Is it my surprise or are you already pleasant" he cannot help but tease his brother.

"Well by now, I guess the world knows I am a very happy married man, never been so happy to be taken"

"Asshole, so guess the marriage suits you huh"

"Tell me about it bro, what do you think"

"She seems good"

"Best, the correct answer is best"

"Sorry, but my Nicole is the best one"

"Hey now, I am a married man cannot say some other woman best" he laughs before both of them move away from the hearing ears.

"So, what brought you in here?"

"I came to take you back home, Kyle"

"Arson we talked..."

"We need you"

"Nicholas has hundred of men at his beck and call"

"But he does not have any trusted men also; I need you by my side bro. Our family has increased in numbers and it is going to increase in future...

I cannot do this all alone, not without you. Knowing you are there to look at things when I am away gives me a sense of peace Kyle...

You need to come back home and now that you are married and settled don't you think..."

"The reason why I never came back was because I have been thinking bro and this life suits me more...

I cannot go back, I do not want to come back home to all of those things, those threats, murders and everything...

No matter how pretty it all looks but we all know how much it takes us to make it all look pretty because deep inside we know it is not, not even one bit pretty in there...

Every night we walk back home to our wives with a smile after wiping someone else's smile just so that woman in out home can keep breathing, we can keep breathing...

I do not want to be part of this" Kyle sighs as she refuses to walk back with Arson to the place he has walks out of.

"Things have changed, Nicho is trying to..."

"No matter how much he tries bro, he can never walk out of it with clean hands...

Hands that have already been washed one too many times with blood, all of us know once you go mafia you can never walk out of it alive, some part of it will always take us back...

Our enemies, our love and most importantly our own family, we will hurt those bastards ten times more if they lay their hands on our family brother and it's a never ending cycle no matter how much we try to believe we will one day walk out clean we can never...

I know it, you know it and so does Nicho...

Spare me from that hate and life Arson, if you want me to put my life for the family I will no doubt without a blink but I cannot be a front man and watch someone else be, killed...

You know I will always be there for you, Nicole and Nicholas no matter what but I don't think I can stand besides you and do the job," Kyle explains as he stares in his brother's eyes who after a while nods his head once.

"Okay, I get it but can I ask something of you" Arson requests.

"Anything"
