Mea Culpa
Hi my name is Hugo De Guia, yes I'm a son of Don. Josue De Guia one of the most notorious mafia bosses here in The Philippines, yup in "The Philippines". You know my father and i have a great relationship even my brothers and sisters except one brother Julian, don't mind him he is very stubborn and very menacing, imagine when we are little he makes me throw a "toy" and tends to be a stielhandgranate that my father buys in an auction. hayyyst!
*Let me tell you a story from my father*
We have a wide range of family starting to my Great Grand Parents who were born in 1878, Don. Alberto De Guia and Doña. Maria Corazon Rufuerzo y De Guia. Our family started to sell leathers for horses, bags, shoes and belts. and it grows and grows until my grandparents turn to rags to riches they built an empire.
But suddenly the Philippine-American war begins and The De Guia's of manila exile to Hong Kong until the war is over and The De Guia's came back to The Philippines. The family is starting to recover they begin the leather industry again and they add another business they enter the world of cigars. The family of De Guia's is on the top, named after one of the richest asian in 1944. They bought some big land in Tobacco, Albay in Tacloban, Leyte and in Quezon Province before it was called Tayabas.
But yes! you already predicted WWII started and The De Guia's is confident that U.S.A will succeed and President Quezon *Best friend of my Grandpa* will protect us. And yes again, the history is right , President Manuel L. Quezon exiled. and the j**s invaded The Philippines.
Numerous lands were taken and destroyed even our farms and businesses again. The De Guia's didn't exile, and my Great Grandparents was executed by a bullet in the head trying to defend my grandma. and my grandma *Daughter of my Great Grandparents* was r***d by a Japanese in front of my grandpa and her children including my father who is that time is just 18 years old.
Suddenly uncle sam was pissed they dropped the big boy on The Land of The Rising Sun and the Japanese surrendered and the rising sun never rose again in The Philippines.
After the war our riches turned to ashes and many of our family died due to starvation and execution. including my father's siblings they were 5 siblings and 2 live including father and Aunt Rosa, and after that my grandparents died due to natural causes, they died while the Family is under bankruptcy meaning father and aunt rosa were the only survivor of The De Guia's
Father didn't waste time finding another family member He was so desperate and angry at what happened to the family, he started to work as a truck driver the truck was full of alcoholic beverages, on the other hand aunt rosa starts to go to school again.
In the 1950's aunt rosa graduated in the course of BS Accountancy in The University of San Peregrin. Father as a beer truck driver becomes a union president because the company he has been working to doesn't pay the workers equally.
Being the local president of the union of truck drivers, father cross path with death, the first assassination attempt to my father is they planted explosive in my father's toolbox. but yet my father's life is not that close enough to Dante's inferno. father notice that the toolbox were heavy and decided to leave it on the headquarters where he works.
*Boom! the headquarters were destroyed*
as a revenge he bootleg the beer that belongs to the company, every single day he bootleg the beer to a capo *Mafia member* for a very low price he do that every single mother f*****g day! until the boss finds out about it using a secret investigator and sued my father, he was jailed and sentenced to 20 years imprisonment without a chance of parole for theft and attempted murder why? because he smacked the beer bottle out of the s**t of his boss.
2 years passed and he was still in jail breaking bones and joining some gangs then news just reached my father, the warden said that father is a free man, but why? (father asks the wardeN) my sentence is 20 years, 20 years! it might be a mixed up, then the warden said just come with me De Guia.
In instant a tall white man wearing a trenchcoat while smoking a cigar just came by.
Josue: who are you?
Tall man: Joey just asks a favor to the warden to release you.
Josue: Joe?! Joey Vaseo?! Fat Joey!?
Tall man: Yeah whatever you want to call him, just go to the car and put these clothes on.
Father puts his clothes on and goes to the car immediately, the driver goes for a drive towards Tondo, Manila and goes to a hotel, father sees Joe Vaseo standing in the dance floor.
Joe Vaseo: Josue where you been haha!
Josue: In Bilibid, I stay there for 2 years thank you for giving me freedom.
Joe Vaseo: Don't thank me thank that man.
Josue: Who is that?
Joe Vaseo: That's Eulogio Villasantis the boss of the Tondo Crime Family we call him Muerte if you ask why? the name will explain.
Josue: so why did he get me out, ahh nevermind I'll ask him myself.
Joe Vaseo: That's my boy!
*Josue goes to Muerte and asks why Muerte get him out, after a long conversation in a private room. My father, Josue becomes an associate of the Tondo Crime Family*
*Yes i know you guys are gonna ask how? it seems to be the bootleg system of my father during his truck driving career makes the Crime family in different areas in Manila rich by selling them cheap beverages*
Time goes by father learn to extort, kill and torture people with problems with the mafia under Muerte father catching some favors with Muerte, until Muerte promoted him as a Consilierge for his bravery and sacrifices for the Tondo Crime Family. Till the death of Muerte my father Josue became the Boss or Don of The Tondo Crime family for almost 17 years!.
Until a day has come many rival Crime Family is plotting to overthrow my father the whole organization doesn't want father's way of policies of his own Crime Family they want to put a hit on him. Prior to the situation father created his own Crime Family in San Juan City, Manila in 1970s. Then this is the Family i grew up in The De Guia Crime Family.

The De Guia Crime Family professionalized in Turf war the Crime Family built a big restaubar in 1981 called Casa De Guia where different Families and mobsters eat, drink or have a meeting. It's a safe place for the most dangerous people in the country.
Time goes by business is going the economy is good for the Family, me as well is an underboss to the family. Until one day father was shot multiple times with a shotgun while he was going to a doctor's appointment by an enemy and died.
