Frederick's Point of View
"Bro, how's your date last night?" William asked me. We are in my house, specifically in the living room. We are sitting in the sofa while talking about business. Right after business, leisure time of course. We drink a bottle of beer and talk about life.
"She's romantic, very good in bed," I smirked when I remember what happened last night. You can call me bad boy but what can I do? The girls are like parasites who keeps on doing everything to get closer to me, seduced me and of course, I'm just a feeble man who sometimes can't resist on temptations.
"Oh really?" William asked. "Seriously bro, you have carry a lot of women in bed you but never make one of them as your official girlfriend. Tell me, is there no one from them that made you fell in love?" William curiously asked.
"Bro, they are the one who ran after me. They are so obsessed with wealth and handsome men," I replied. "How can I loved them?" I asked. "They are just a one night affair. Just enough to make me forget my problems for a short time," I said and drank a glass of beer.
"You are so different now. In the past, you are so careful and softhearted with girls but now you're treating them as a toy," he replied.
"Bro, I'm not playing all of the girls. Only those who likes to play too and those who deserves," I said.
"By the way, I'll go ahead now. My girlfriend is waiting for me. Haha!" He smiled and stood up.
"Take care bro," I said and he make his way out of my house.
Since Joylene died, I never love other woman again. It's more than a year but she's still the only one I loved. I already tried dating with other woman but it only end up nothing and useless. I'm still searching for the kind of love that I only feel toward Joylene. I've gone through depression and almost wanted to die but luckily, I've over come it. Although I still can't forget Joylene, I'm better now than the past.
My Mom died too, it's a car accident last year. It made me and my father depressed. Dad is already old and after Mom died, they both passed all the family businesses on me. Dad become even more obsessed in his passion and I just let him, at least he can get away from the grief caused by my mom's death. He is living in his rest house now while I'm living in our Mansion. I've never meet him for almost a year because of busyness in our businesses. Honestly, I'm not that close with my father because since young, we barely see each other and stay together. He is a very busy man like Mom.
When Joylene died, Darlene was angry on me. Mom died too and I became depressed. One day, I entered Mom's room and saw her things. I hugged her used pillow and sat on her bed for the whole day. She died without even giving me a chance to say that I really love her. She died that we still didn't have enough time staying with each other and enjoying life. I didn't even say sorry to her because I've been too stubborn and hates her because I feel like she loves the company over me. I regret those moments that I sulk on her rather than visiting her on the company. I regret of being angry to her instead of understanding her responsibilities in our business. Now, I realized that all she's doing is for the family, for me. I'm so useless as a child and even as a boyfriend.
A few months later, I tried to let go of my bad past. I deleted all the photos of Joylene in my phone and disposed all the things that could remind me of her. I tried to clean my Mom's room and found a ledger book in her drawer. I took it and sat on her bed. I opened it and was very shocked of what I've seen.
My mother is the well known Mafia Queen in the country called, Black Dragon. There's a list of notorious criminals in the ledger and a short information about them like codename, real name and identity. There are 30 names in total, which is also a leader of different Gangs. This means that Black Dragon is the leader of the g**g's leader too. There's a hideouts location too but written in longitudes and latitudes. There are written codes too which I can't understand some because it's not specified.
I never expected that my Mom lives like this. Of course she's not prepared that she will encounter a car accident and haven't even told me this things or maybe she really don't want me to know this. Well, I immediately asked Dad about it through a phone call but he seems to know nothing. How could he know if he is busy with the company and his little experiments too.
Knowing things like this just made me shook my head. My Mom is the person at the back of the mask of the Mafia Queen, Black Dragon. She have killed a lot of people and do a lot of illegal things.
Due to curiosity, I searched every inch of my Mom's room to look for some evidence that what is stated in the ledger is true. Then, I found a secret volt behind the whole body mirror. I tried to roll the lock in different combinations of numbers before I remember the codes in the ledger. There's a written, "SV-37593" in the last page. I tried it and it's really the code to open the secret volt.
Inside the secret volt, I found the mask of the so called Black Dragon which I've often see and published in the news papers and TV news programs. What's more, I found the Ring which is used to identify the Mafia Queen too. And the last thing I found, a black flash drive.
I immediately took the flash drive out and locked my Mom's room. I went to my room and see what's inside the flash drive. Then, I found a video of my Mom specially taken for me. Mom was sitting on her bed and taking this video for me to be able to know everything one day. And this is the day where I will be able to know the truth about my Mom.
