A Mafia Story

Chapter 4

Family Dinner

As Randy and his siblings gathered around the table for dinner, it was very quiet until their mother spoke.

"So Sasha where you get the necklace from?" Stephanie asked her youngest daughter.

Sasha ignored her mother at first until she heard Stephanie clear her throat.

"Umm a friend gave it to me as a gift." She lied quickly not looking up. Stephanie nodded and smiled, she knew her youngest was lying so she excused herself from the table amd stood up.

"Sasha, Randy, Rebecca, Charlotte come with me now!" She told them.

All four looked at each other and stood up as they followed their mother to the study hall.

"Steph closed the door behind her and eyed each of her children. She knew they were lying and was covering for each other. She liked that they were protecting each other but not by lying to her. She hated liars, the last person who lied to her was their maid who stole money from them and was killed for it.

"Now I know someone is lying about what happened at that party. Now either you tell me or your father when he gets here tomorrow. All four of you know what happens when you lie to me, now I want the truth now!" She spoke glaring at each of them.

"Okay! We'll tell you the truth!" Charlotte told her.

"That's the truth I promise, nothing else happened. The twins showed up and we left, they started trouble with us. We were just trying to leave, when Nikki grabbed Sasha. I'm sorry mother we should've told you what really happened." Becky told her.

Stephanie looked at her children and motioned for her youngest to stand by her side. She looked over Sasha carefully to make sure no harm was done.

"Did you have your gun on you Becky?" Steph asked her.

"Yes mother never leave home without it, just hate I didn't shoot her." She told her upset.

Stephanie just smiled, "Becks you know the rules!" She told her.

Becky nodded, "Only kill if necessary or if they truly deserve it!" She told her.

"Exactly now I don't like my children lying to me, but the fact that you all did it to protect each other makes me proud. I'll tell your father what happened but that nobody was hurt. Now finish up dinner and bed early tonight you all have training tomorrow." She told them leaving the study hall.

"Yes mother!" They spoke in unison and followed their mother back to the dining area and finished dinner.

As they finished dinner, Stephanie pulled her oldest son to the side.

"Randy my first born! I need you to do something for me son!" Steph told him.

"What's that mother?" He asked.

"For now on until we find out what those Hall children are up to, I need you to watch your sisters and brother the guards can only do so much to protect all of you understood." She told him.

Randy nodded as he headed upstairs, but before he headed to bed, he knocked on his brother's room.

"Seth you still up?" He asked his younger brother.

"Yeah what's up?" Seth asked opening his door.

"We gotta talk about mother and dad?" Randy told him sitting on the bed.

"What about them bro?" Seth asked concerned. Him and Randy were really close since they were little. They always looked out for each other and could talk about anything.

"Well you know that special task I had to do for dad?" Randy asked him.

Seth nodded, "Yeah what about it?" He asked.

"Well I had to go to a warehouse a few miles from here for a very important meeting that invovled Scott Hall, his wife and their children. He's coming after us and dad doesn't know why. Mom wants me to protect you and our sisters at all costs. Which means I can't let them out of my sight now, espically after what happened at that party. Mom will never let them go anywhere unless one of us is with them and one of the guards." Randy told him.

Seth nodded, "Crap what the hell are we gonna do now? The girls won't like you watching their every move!" Seth told him.

"I know! I'll tell them tomorrow at training." Randy told him as he got up and left.

" Night bro, love ya!" Randy told him heading towards his room.

"Love you too bro!" Seth told him.
