THEO'S REDEMPTION

Chapter 1

An ear- splitting sound can be heard in the four corner walls of the room where the couple huddled together facing the armed men. The woman looked terrified and her lover's face is battered beyond recognition, with shallow breath he struggled to fight but it's no use, the devil himself comes to witness their demise.

The fearless Mafia Don is sitting in the corner behind the shadowed curtain just watching the scene, silently observing his men who tortured the quivering fools . He had a menacing look that is ready to strike those who dared to cross him, he was just biding his time and this lowlife is wasting the limit of his patience already.

They are just a small fish so he wouldn't lift a finger to end their miserable life, they're not worthy to dirt his hand for his title as the Don of the Mafia.

They already served their purpose, the information he wants to obtain for those people who betrayed him in the past that cause a havoc in his once a happy life.

"We already told you everything we know, why won't you let us go?

You don't know the meaning of Omerta, you have no honor and a traitor, do you think I'd let you walk away and be merry and betray me once more?

"No please" we promise, if you only give us a chance to redeem ourselves and show our loyalty to you---we will do anything..

But their pleas has just fallen into deaf ears, the Don has no mercy for his enemies.

He raised his hand as a signal which means execute, "make it swift and clean up the mess.

The silent sound of a gunshot ended the life of two vermin and his happy to get rid of them.

He had to go somewhere else tonight, he just had a detour, a slightly mishaps on his well executed plan to take revenge on the people that landed him of being cold-blooded monster today.

"We are done Boss, what are we going to do with the bodies? His right hand man Armando asked..

"You know the drill", don't leave any evidence tha would linked back to us. They are maybe a menace in the society and police would be happy to get rid of them, but we know the protocol. Just torch the damn place and make it look like an accident.

"Hurry", we have a bigger fish to fry. He is excited that finally he can put a name to all the bastards that killed his entire family.

Flashback....

His chest hurt remembering the beloved faces of his mother and sister. It will haunt him till the day he die, even if he avenge their death, the gruesome way they died will etched forever on his mind. Even in his sleep it disturbs him because of the constant nightmares that continues to plague him. He was back in the dark moment of his life when he witness the horrifying scene. How he wished that he could turned back time and be there to save his Mother and baby sister from those monsters, but it's just a wishful thinking because in reality it would never happen.
