Now back to the story...

Luca ran up the stairs and walked into Irene's room.  He stood at her door and saw his little sister on her laptop, typing away.  He knocked on her door before walking in.  She looked up and scowled at the site of her brother. 

"What?" She asked in a harsh tone. 

"Ouch, That kinda hurt.  Look, I just want to talk," he said with his hands up in defense.  She rolled her eyes and continued typing while he came over and took a seat on the chair by her bed. 

"What do you want?  I'm busy," she said. 

"Doing?" He asked as he tried to get a glimpse of her screen, but she quickly closed her laptop. 

"What?  What do you want, Luca?" She asked frustrated by her brothers presence.  Especially since she had a place she needed to be at. 

"When have you been shot?" He asked. 

"A while ago," she said.

"Was it the only time?" He asked. 

"No, it happened all the time.  You just don't see it," she said. 

"I'm sorry," he said. 

"Why are you sorry?  It's not your fault," she said.

"I know, but it's our family's fault you get hurt and have to live your life scared of everyone," he said.  She scrunched up her face before she bursted our laughing.  Luca was now even more confused then he was when he first entered her room.

"Now I'm really confused.  What's so funny?" He asked. 

"First off, I don't live my life scared of shit happening.  I'm not scared of anything.  Secondly, the reason I got shot has nothing to do with the Russo name.  It's because I was doing a job with me team and it went south.  Shit like that happens," she said as she gathered her laptop and put it in her bag. 

"Wait, team?" He asked. 

"Yeah, you guys aren't the only ones doing illegal shit," she said as she got off her bed and put one her back pack. 

"What are you talking about?" He asked. 

"What do you think I do all night.  Go to sleepovers?" She asked sarcastically.  She walked past him and out the door.  He sat in the chair puzzled by what his sister had just told him.  He hopped of the chair and ran after her down the stairs. 

"Where are you going?" He asked. 

"To do shit.  Fuck, you ask too many questions," she said as she opened the door.  "I have things I gotta do," she said. 

"Fine, but I'm coming with you," he said as he put on his jacket. 

"No, no way," she said. 

"I'm coming with you whether or not you like it.  So we can sit here arguing or leave," he said.  She rolled her eyes and walked out the door.  He smiled and followed right behind her.  Once they arrived at their destination, they got out the car and walked around to the back of a warehouse. 

"Irene, what is this place?" Luca asked.  

"You know you didn't have to come," she said.  He scoffed and followed her to the back door.  She knocked on it a couple of times, but in a rhythmic order.  1,2,1,1,2,2. They waited a little until a dark-skin boy with glasses opened the door.  He look at Luca confused as he and Irene entered.
