Why on Earth, does this looks like World War IV is about to break out. I am stunned to see all of them. I looked around the café and found all the guys lined-up behind the counter. 4 big, bulky men are pointing their guns towards them. Rest of the men are point guns towards each other's throats and only 4 of men are glaring at each other like wolves ready to tear each other apart.

"What is going on here?" I asked, dumbfounded at the scene in front of me.

Oh wait. You guys don't know the scene. Well let's just say Dylan, Nikolai, Alex and Alessio are having a heated stare down to show the other one the other one is more powerful. I sighed.

What. The. Hell.

"Nikolai, Alex. What the hell are you both doing here? No, wait. What the hell are you all doing here?" I asked getting angry with the each passing minute.

"We come here to see you." Nikolai said, gritting his teeth.

"Why do you want to see me?" I inquired.

He decided to ignore me.

"Ivan, Josh. Please put your guns down." I requested to both of them who are pointing their guns towards Ron and Jordon. What I didn't expect from them is to not even budge at my request, I looked at them shocked. It never happened. They had always listened to me. I glanced around and was sad to see all those scared faces. Wherever these men go, all they take with them and leave behind is sorrow.

That's it. It's show time. Brain

Calm down Mary .

Calm down . .

Fuck Calm!

"Out." I said slowly so only they can hear and they sure did because they all looked at me like I had grown 4 new pairs of ears. "I said GET OUT" I yelled making them all looking at me shocked. I was so angry that I simple grabbed their collars and literally dragged them out of café. I actually throw them out. Maybe; it was my outburst or my angry stance; they didn't even utter a single word. I was more than angry to give a fuck. "Do not come back. If I find anyone of you here, so God help me what I'll do with all of you, will be passed down from generations to generations of yours. Get the fuck out of here." I yelled at their faces and slammed the door. I was heaving by the time I sat down on one the chairs. The shock was evident on every single face present there.

Several minutes passed when Troy put o glass of water in front of me. I was so lost in my own world of misery that I didn't noticed them giving me strange almost fearful glances. I looked at Troy and then everybody else. I sighed.


What've I done to deserve this?

Why is my life getting this messed up?

A lone tear slipped out and I closed my eyes. This all is so overwhelming. I have done nothing wrong to anyone of them. Why are they constantly making my life a living hell? A thumb softly brushed the lone tear from my face making my grasp and opening my eyes. I saw Ron, Troy, Jordon and others looking at me sadly.

"Hey. It's okay. We all are Okay. No need to cry, Mary. Be strong." Ron said softly, afraid that I might break if he spoke loudly.

"I'm trying Ronny. I'm. But they had made their mission to destroy every good thing in my life." I said looking out of the window. It was already dark. I must get home now.

"I'm sorry for all this mess guys." I said, looking down at my shoes. "I don't deserve to work here. Today, because of me, your lives were in danger. I cannot let this happen again. I don't know anything about anyone of them. They all seem dangerous but till what extend; I don't know. So, I'll quit tomorrow in evening."

"This explains." Said Max.

I looked at him. He simply shook his head. "We all need to babe. It's not that we cannot take care of yourselves. That was uncalled for that's why we were a bit . . um . " "Shocked." Landan completed it for him. I looked at them. It was clear that they do not want me to leave but can I put their lives in danger again?

"Don't fret too much on something you have absolutely no control over." Ron said, brushing my hairs out of my face.

"But . what if they come back and . . and I'm not here to stop them. What then? What if they hurt any one of you? I won't be able to live with that Ron." I said, shaking my head and backing away from them. "I've to quit. I cannot let them get anyone of you. This is not your battle to fight. They will use to, target you. I cannot let that happen."

"So basically you're going to run away like a weakling because few men are trying to get you? Is that it? You're letting them decide your fate for you?" Landan said making me stop my thoughts. "I thought you were not only strong, independent but also smart and brave. I think I was wrong."

"It's not me I'm worried about, Lan."I said looking at him. "I'm worried about you guys. Why aren't you all seeing this?" I said absolutely irritated. Why are they being this clueless? They just had guns pointed towards their head, not mine.

"Why don't we make a deal?" Troy said smiling at me like he solved the biggest mysteries of Earth. "You don't quit now. If such a thing repeats, none of us will stop you. As Lan said; we're quite capable to defend ourselves. If this happens again; you're free to go."

"But what if next time they do cause some damage?" I said, trying to drill some sense in them.

"They won't. Trust me." Jordon said.

I opened my mouth to say something but Max put his hand on my mouth, silencing me. "Drop it. Troy is right. No more debate on this." He said sternly and I gave him one of my annoyed looks. "It's late, already. Get changed and we will drop you home. Come back with a fresh start. Do not think too much. We are here to help you, babes." I was beyond tired. I just merely shook my head, get changed and come out. In the meantime; boys cleared the café and was waiting for me. We all talked little bit but mostly we stayed quite. There was so much going on they we all need to have some "quite time". I reached my apartment and Troy hugged me like I was going in for a gun-fight.


"Take care; will ya?" Troy said, unsure what I'll do once I'm alone. I laughed and nodded my head. One by one all of them gave me hugs and I returned it. They're becoming my family in just a single day.

"We will meet you tomorrow." Ronny said and they all bid goodbyes and left me alone with my thoughts and Dylan.

Well . Here goes nothing .
