Here's the second chapter! Sorry if you find it a little short. XP
Chapter 2
It is my first time seeing dad this serious. Normally, he is very joyful. We sat around the table like the others. In the first minutes, the atmosphere was so dense. No one was talking and all the adults looked so serious compared to the lost faces of the children. A few minutes later, Lambo came in and said;
"I'm sorry to be late."
Then, dad, Hayato, Lambo, Takeshi, Chrome, Kyoya and Ryohei took off their rings and gave it to us. Dad gave me his ring. Normally, he treasures it so much that he wouldn't even let mom touch it. Kai received the ring from Lambo. I never realized that their rings had the same design. Only mine was a little different; it was the only one that has a colour (blue).
"Yuki, Kai, Yuu, Rose, Cherry, Taro and Shiki…"said my dad. "We have a confession to make… We are actually in the Mafia."
~ Silence ~
"hahahahaha" Taro started to laugh. "That was a good joke!"
But as soon as his father glared at his, he shut up embarrassed.
"This is not a joke" said father. "We are the Vongola family, the most important family in the Mafia. I'm the 10th boss of the family and the others are my guardians."
"Ano… What do you mean by family?" I didn't understand a thing of what dad said.
"In the Mafia, there are groups that we call family."
"And what are guardians?" asked Rose.
"They are the ones who support the boss. There are six guardians. Each guardian has a different ring. Rose has the storm ring, Taro has the rain ring, Kai has the thunder ring, Cherry has the mist ring, Yuu has the sun ring, Shiki has the cloud ring and the boss, Yuki has the sky ring."
"EH? Why am I the Boss?"
"Because you have the potential to be a great leader."
~ Silence ~
No one made any sounds till we heard the entrance door open. Mom, Hana and Haru just entered. They walked in the living room and said;
"What is this atmosphere? Your silence is scary!"
"Mom!" said Kai. "Did you know that dad was in the Maf…."
She didn't get the chance to finish her sentence because dad covered her mouth with his hands and whispered;
"No she doesn't know and don't tell her. I don't want her to worry about this so keep it a secret please."
"What darling?" asked mom.
"Nothing!" said dad.
She doesn't look very convinced of the answer but didn't say anything else.
"We bought cakes!" said happily Haru.
"Eh? So we won't eat Kyoko's apple pie?" said Taro deceived.
"Sorry Taro, I didn't have the time to make it. Next time, I promise."
We ate the cakes and they went home. Kai and I went to our room and talked;
"Did you understand what dad said?" she asked me.
"A bit."
"What do we do if we don't want to be in the mafia?"
"I don't know, but I think that we don't have the choice. Did you ever see dad this serious?"
"No..." she admitted. "So what do we do?"
"I guess we'll have to accept our destiny…"
The second chapter is now finished. Thanks for those who reviewed.
