Duke is watching Eve sip from a cup of coffee as she sits at her office table and looks out of the window. His hands are folded as he watches her, he is waiting for her to say something. " Did you hear what I said?" He is getting impatient. She can't just stay there and ignore him for minutes. " Why the hell am I finding out that you are married to Jimmy's last daughter?" She wonders. He chuckles and looks away. She turns to him but she is not smiling, she is not happy. " When were you going to tell me?" She asks him. " I didn't realize that I was supposed to tell you that. " He says. " Aren't you friends with her grandfather?"She drops the coffee and walks to the window. " How did he even allow you to marry his daughter?" She glances at him. " I know that you are rich and all, but you don't own shit here. "" Mister Futterman is a very materialistic man. " Duke nods in agreement. " It wasn't easy, I'm going to tell you that. "" Then how did you do it? Did you give him seve

Going back home they are laughing all over each other. It's exactly like the first time that they met and it's just so beautiful. She is holding on to his free hand and her head is against his shoulder. He doesn't mind, he still manages to drive fine even in that position. " So are you going to tell me how your trip was?" He turns to her. She is surprised that he asked, she wasn't even going to bring it up at all. " You really want to hear about it?" She asks. "Why not?" He shrugs. " I want to hear about all the fun you had. "She laughs, it's a happy kind of laughter. " Italy was fun and very beautiful. " She tells him. " I loved working too, I was surprisingly good as a model."" I mean, of course. " He says. " You are beautiful and you have a great body. "She smiles, his compliments are like those that they had during their good times and she likes the fact that it's slowly coming back. "Hey, I am sorry that I didn't give us a chance to properly discuss this. " She says.

Melody puts the eggplant in her hand and feels it against her finger as if it's going to be the best way to decide if it's good enough. She puts it in her basket and then she turns around, Jim is behind her. He takes an eggplant and puts it in his basket as he smiles at her. It's a little bit weird because for five minutes straight he has been behind her and has picked the exact thing she has touched too. " You like cooking with eggplants?" She smiles back at him. " I haven't had it in my life, but I am sure that my wife is going to figure something out with it. " He shrugs. She grabs some strawberries and he does the exact same thing. If not for the fact that Duke spoke to him a few minutes ago, she would have concluded that he is a kind of stalker or something. Maybe she is just being wrong, maybe he just happens to have an identical shopping list, and maybe this isn't all weird at all. " It's nice of you to offer to drop me off at home. " She turns back to him. " Not many pe

After twenty minutes, Jim is covered in blood, his shirt looks torn in many places and he looks like he has been in a train wreck. Duke has a new fear/respect for Mister Joseph because, for all he has known, Melody's father has been the quiet type. Now that he has seen the Beasty part of him come out and torment Jim, he is impressed. They need this kind of heartless man to handle the army enemies sometimes. Jim is breathing heavily as he spits out blood from his mouth. Mister Jimmy is sitting in a corner and he doesn't say anything since Mister Joseph has refused to listen to him. " Where is my daughter?" Mister Joseph asks. " I don't know. " He cries. " I swear on my life that I don't know. "" And you are going to lose your life because of that, Jim. " Mister Joseph threatens. " I intend to take out your teeth if you don't tell me where she is."" I was hit in the face with the butt of a gun because I chose to help her, you can ask the witnesses. "" Or it's just a poor scheme

Duke looks at the mangled body of Jim as two make servants lower him into the body bag. He has seen a lot of dead bodies – hell, he has killed a lot of people – but this is hitting him so hard because he didn't see this coming. He remembers Jim's wife who came crying and how he promised her that her husband would come back home to her. That's a promise that has been broken forever. The men zip up the bag and take the body out of the basement. Duke presses himself against the wall as he doesn't want to come in any form of contact with the body, he doesn't want to even look at it. Mister Joseph pulls out a stick is cigarette from his pocket and lights it, he is smoking a fucking cigarette when he has just killed someone. And to think that Duke thought he was different from his father. " You said you killed him with only a punch. "Duke's voice is low. " Why does he look like he has been run over by a train?" Mister Joseph takes out his cigarette and looks at it as he laughs. " I
