I Never Knew My Mum Loves Me This Much

“We kind of… we kind of lit the barrels of booze at the store by mistake. You know mum accidents do happen” I narrated.

“ Mistake, What the fuck is wrong with you” Susan screamed as she pull a cigar and lights it.

“It was all Baggy man's fault,” Elephant said.

“Will you all keep quiet?” Susan ordered and said “ Who the fuck sent you to the damn country” 

“You” We all replied in fear.

“Who the fuck where you suppose to report to?” Susan asked, smoking deeper.

We were speechless.

“Answer the fucking damn question,” Susan said as she threw a bottle of courage on the car floor and the bottle broke.

“Mom, your cigar is going to light the scourge once it does that we will all die” I advised.

“Don’t call me mom” Susan screamed in anger.

“She doesn't mind that she's just angry,” Baggy said.

Well, he ended his life! Mum brought her favorite pistol and shot him in the arm.

“Now, I will ask again and if you don’t answer I will burn us all alive. Who the bloody hell were supposed to report to?”

Susan asked again.

“You, boss” We replied in fear.

“Good” Susan shot both Elephant and Alexa by the arm as well and said "those were salt bullets the next one will be real and as for you Andrew you on lockdown for three weeks. Whoever disobeys my orders suffer the consequences”  Susan orders.

“But mum…” I tried to protest but she never listened.

The car alighted at home and I was escorted to my room when the door was shut from outside, now I am officially a home prisoner but I can’t believe it.

** ** ** ** 

Door opens and mom walks in looking annoyed and says “What the hell are you thinking?  I could have lost you today. I don't even know how many cities would have burnt down to get over losing you?”

“You can simply adopt another child just as you adopted me” I said grumbling.

“So that what you see me as, a mother after power but not her. Listen to me Andrew, I love you as my son and can do anything for you. But what you did today was reckless, you lost the trust of Elephant by kissing his sister, you broke a happy relationship with Cleopatra, You exposed your cover!”  Susan said.

“I'm sorry mum, I am truly sorry” I replied apologetically.

“I know you are sorry but yet that is not what you need, you show that you have repented of your mistakes and that is by suffering the consequences. Just because you are my son doesn’t give you liberty to go against the rules.

A true leader follows the same that binds his followers and also as he follows he applies in himself meaning no one is above the law except the law is unjust but can the law really be unjust” Susan admonished me.

“So mum, what is the consequence for my action?” I asked.

“You will ask Elephant for his forgiveness on your knees seven times on hot flame, seven times in cold ice to Cleopatra, Seven times to Alexa on Boiling stone, Seven times to Baggy man on boiling water and seven times to me on 300 poison scorpions” Susan replied.

“Mom, it is death you are putting into” I said.

“No, it is humility and respect I am building you to” Susan replied.

“Can’t I just apologize?” I asked.

“No, you can't,” Susan replied.

“Oh! No I can’t believe this, I will do it mum on one condition” I said.

“You are not worthy to be a leader if humility comes with conditions” Susan replied.

“I am scared mum” I said.

“If you want to earn their trust  and that of this family again that is what you must do” Susan Replied.

“Okay, I will do it,” I said.

“Your lesson here is once trust is broken, it may never be easy to mend again but you still have an opportunity to mend yours do waste it you will need them in your time. Learn this so you won’t have to do it again in future” Susan advised.

“I understand mom, I will do what needs to be done to earn their trust and this family trust as well” I replied.

“Very well, son, I will ensure the preparation ceremony begins tonight. Just remember you can fool everyone that you are apologetic and can endure every pain you put through. All will be vanity as genuine repentance is in the heart and not in words because if it Is not genuine you may not survive the scorpions sting because it venom is like a truth serum which will expose your true intention and if your intention are evil I can't save you because  I will fear handle my family to you since your heart and intentions are evil such individual cannot be welcomed to our family but if is pure we will gladly help you. Make no mistake you can’t skill your way out,” Susan said.

“I understand mom, I will make you proud” I replied.

“Save your promise for later, it is not in promise but in action that you will know a man’s heart” Susan Said.

I thought to myself and replayed every activity that took place in the heist seeking for ways to prove that I made a right call but the more I dug the more I uncovered much of my fault. 

It is quite difficult to lead knowing fully well that one bad call can jeopardize the whole mission or even lead to the death of your team mate. I always wished I could escape this harsh reality but I guess this reality wants me more than I do.

You know that feeling wanting to try something new but everyone is used to the old approach well I can’t blame them, no one even I will be scared to try a new approach because here in New York even gang lord who tried on a new approach never succeed so chances that my suggestion of we diverting most of our resources to boost the software company incase we  need a Plan B you know gang war can cost a lot of money and also loss of money.

I must tell you it has been difficult balancing two identities as a hero to those in trouble and a villain for my family. It has been a hell of a month trying to keep our tracks of heroic deeds to prevent rival gangs from dropping us from number one.

We are the most feared in the either World and mom won't want to lose such prestige, not even for heroism. As for me I am only in for heroic deeds as long as the ladies gives me a kiss

“Like seriously!” Alexa exclaimed.

Oh! Shit I was sleeping and talking out loud. I had to wake up and defend myself. “Alexa, it is not what you think you do know. I love you with all of my heart,” I said.

“Are you sure? Or am I just for pleasure? Or maybe a tool to please you?” Alexa asked.

Before you say anything I know that Alexa is 29 and I am 19 currently but I really do love her though Lucy will always be my first love but I can’t fall in love with lucy she is the daughter my mother’s foe and anyone who partners with my mothers foe is automatically my enemy which means their next destination is the grave.

Lucy and I are history. There is no way I will fall in love with her again and we were both young at age 6 when we both had our first kiss.

You know what, I do not want to talk about this because 3 weeks after our first kiss Lucy broke up with me for no reason though I still love her. Alexa is just a tool to fill in that void and I am denying the fact that I am still in love with Lucy.

Baggy once told me of his love for the New York governor's daughter but their relationship was cut short because the governor's daughter was using him to fill the void in her heart until her Ex returned to her. Long story short, poor Baggy's heart was crushed and the governor's daughter got married to her Ex.

3 months later before Baggy joined Pace's Family, Little Mrs. Governor's daughter was sent to hell by her husband of which I am certain that the devil is glad to hear of a foolish candidate in his kingdom. 

When Baggy heard the news he avenged her death and murdered her husband because he loved her but it is quite crazy how love is. The main reason the governor's daughter's husband shot her ten times in her heart was because she claimed she married him because of her father, of which at first she never loved him.

Trying all his best to make her fall in love with him he realizes that she is in love with another to make matters worse she was in love with his best friend in college and that bestfriend is Baggy.

Lucion, who is the governor's daughter's husband became jealous and out of that jealous fueled with anger he shot her ten times in the heart. Now you know why Baggy never tried to win her despite the fact that she said she never loved him.

He was just a good man who wanted to honor his dear friend who became a monster and murder both Kara and her twin babies whose father is baggy. 

The whole story is Lucion was willing to let her go by divorcing her until he found out she was pregnant instead of telling the truth that she was not pregnant for him but for baggy but out of fear of being hurt if she told the truth so she lied  that they were his kids.

Kara noble and good intention led to her vacation to the early grave that brings me to the way I feel for Alexa I am not actually sure though I will say this again she Is way older than me, very good in sex, a great partner to have to watch your back, a listening friend, I guess she completes me besides I only go out for mission after that I am indoor and the only person who I am intimate with apart from mom is Alexa so that make me in love her  I guess.

But truly if anyone is in my family falling in love seems be a bad idea especially with your team mate, it can make you lose focus on the mission when either you are in danger with either of you seeking to rescue the other 

Alexa and I have been together without any member of the team knowing except Luca who daily advised us to quit warming us that it will lead to the death of one of us but as every idiot who  heart loves with wisdom we never listen.

I know what you are thinking. Does my mom have any idea of my relationship with Alexa? Well, my answer is No but I can’t really say because my mum has an undercover few secrets sometimes and would pretend not to notice until it gets me in trouble.
