The Real Mafia Story

chapter#27: "Extermination"

Katrina's POV:

I felt something vibrate in my pocket, my hand sluggishly roamed to the buzzing area,

Pulling out my phone from it briskly, my eyes were closed shut, buried within the folds of my furry blanket,

A headache poked it's little finger over my eyelid underneath my left eyebrow, "Hello?", I mumbled in my morning voice,

" Kat, you still sleeping, Rats is asking for you", it was as usual Karly,

"Karly, I am sick... Maybe later, cover for me please....", I groaned,

My mouth felt quite dry, " Kat, do you know what happened last night?",

My eyes gently opened in my pillows and I shot back up in my place, "What happened last night?", my stomach dropped, as she cleared her throat,

I heard Hwarang speaking at the back, she doesn't know it yet, she uttered a silent shit, "Karly, I demand you tell me what happened?", I blurted in my forceful voice,

"Um...not to worry, he just um... Fainted, he is in the med room---", I threw my phone on the bed,

And ran out of the room, plunging the door open briskly in nervousness, I made my way to the stairs,

Running like my life depends on it, I collided with someone and pushed them out of the way, " be careful, he is alright!", I heard him shout,

My heart leaped with troubling delight as my breath shortened by each step I took towards the room, Bad thoughts crept into my mind of all sorts,

Why was he in the med room, she was lying! I galloped the stairs quickly then crossed the living room and headed for the foyer,

I saw Evan coming out with Lea, their faces became pale at my sight, which even more intensified my curiosity,

I pushed the door open and there he was, frozen in his place with his pale features and a deadly purple shaded pair of lips,

His dull struck gaze silently bore holes in my heart and I gulped visibly at his countenance, he was caught in midway exchanging a teacup with Edgar,

At the side, I saw Karly and Hwarang, they went out after giving me a thoughtful smile, Edgar did the same, so much silence, my senses were right something bad did happen,

He sipped his tea as well as my anxious presence, "Hey there partner", he jested,

I stood silently for a while scanning the havoc that sat on the bed in the shape of my best friend, my vision started to blur but I didn't let go of a tear,

Not right now! I crawled near him, to his right side, he waited for me to come close,

My weight dropped at the chair beside him and my mouth remained shut, " you are not gonna talk to me, Kat?",

"What happened?", was my first cry,

He removed his gaze from my face and hesitated a bit, trying to find a suitable lie to feed me, I know this game I am an old player, I am a champion in it,

" I fainted due to weakness, I forgot to mention to you that I was on a strict diet plan, you can ask Paul, he is my gym instructor sometimes",

"Don't feed me lies", I said as I without a blink gazed at his failed attempted trickery,

He froze, I got up and tried to touch his head but his hand immediately caught me, " I will hit you, Rats", I uttered as I tried to touch him with my other hand,

He caught that as well, I ripped my wrist out of his hold, which was easy as he was quite weak but he wouldn't let me touch him,

He blocked me every time with his hands, "tell me what really happened", I gripped his collar,
