Finding Rhegitt Strife

Fifteen

As the sky slowly dimmed, the night came into sight. The two heirs of the Strife wanders around the broken coffee shop.

The younger Strife sighed as she looked down on the broken glasses on the ground.

"I'm totally sorry about your shop." The elder Strife said, looking at his sister.

"It's not your fault Rad." She smiled at him.

"Do you want to drink? I know just a place."

And they drove towards the abandoned building owned by the younger Strife.

Rhegitt's POV

When we arrived at the abandoned building, the group of Saminto welcomed us along with Jethro.

"Welcome back Ghitt Asher." Jethro said and ushered us to the office.

"Ghitt Asher?" Rad asked, towering behind me. I just shrugged at him and went inside the office.

"Ghitt! Andito ka na! Teka, sinong- Bakit andito ang anak ng mga Strife?!" Saminto panicked as he walked towards me and looking at me like 'Why did you bring that man here?'

"Saminto, Jethro. I need to tell you something." I said and I let Rad sat down on the single couch on the front of the table as I sat down on the swivel chair.

Saminto and Jethro looked at me patiently.

"My real name is Rhegitt Strife and this man here, is my brother. Rad Strife." I motioned to Rad.

"Bakit ka nagsinungaling sa amin?"
The two high school boys weren't surprised I guess Jethro had a faint idea about who I am.

"It's a long story. Your mission is done and you have served me well." I smiled to the both of them. They were great information seekers and I guess being in a gang at such a young age had made them acquired skills.

"Don't worry, you're all free to go and you can keep this place. As what I had promised you, I'm gonna make sure you get it." I smiled at them. They looked surprised and happy at the same time. Looks like Saminto is about to cry now but he held it in.

"Maraming salamat Ghitt ay este Lady Rhegitt pala." Saminto said and I just nod at him.

"Can you two leave for a while? I need a moment with my brother." I told them and they politely obliged.

I took a bottle of Jack Daniel's on the cabinet here and two glasses. Perks of letting the boys designed this place. What a bunch of drunkards. I mentally laughed at them. They were like little brothers to me, especially Jason.

I should treat them sometime.

"Here." I poured Rad his drink.

"Thanks."

We raised our glass for a toast and drank the content.
"So what is your plan now Rhegitt? Are you planning to come back now?"

I looked at my glass and poured myself a drink again.

"I don't know."

"What? What do you mean? Do you know that Gramps's men are here right now to make you come home?" Rad was worried and I gave him a faint smile.

"I know. But they won't be able to do anything as long as I live." I told him.

"Can I ask why you left, sis?" We were silent for a while but I think he deserves to know the truth.

"Alright. For starters, I left because of how I feel unwelcomed inside our family."

"What?! How could you say that?!" Rad wasn't mad he looked sad.
