She's the Mafia Boss

Chapter 4

Kryssa's POV

Kaishi organization is the top organization in the world. It's not just an ordinary organization. It's a mafia.

Sinasabi lang namin itong organization dahil sa mga companies na hinahandle namin pero pagdating sa underground business, we're considered as a mafia.

We have, at most, a hundred members. My father, Leon Vaughan, and my mother, Karina Vaughan, are the king and queen of Kaishi. That makes me the princess and Lawn, the prince. Even so, we are still considered as leaders. We have our fellow leaders, of course, who are Titus Kash and Zinnia Rosen.

Pero pag-usapang mafia, si dad at mom ang boss. Ako naman ang underboss or capo bastone who is the second-in-command in the hierarchy of the Mafia crime family. Si Titus at Zinnia naman ang consigliere or chief advisor who are the close trusted friend and confidant of mom and dad. Sila kasi yung klase ng taong hindi emosyunal at hindi biased. Si Lawn naman ang capo or caporegime who is the captain or lieutenant of a division within the Mafia. They head a crew of soldiers and report directly to a boss or underboss, who hands down the instructions. And we also have assassins, soldiers and associates in our mafia.

Assassins have the ability to make one or more daykills. We don't usually kill innocent people kaya ang pinapatay lang ng mga assassins ay 'yung against sa amin. I want to be an assassin, I even trained for it, pero ayaw ni dad. Okay na daw ako sa pagiging capo bastone or underboss.

If ever you're wondering why my older sister, Lucy (yes, she's my older sister but we do not use kuya and ate) isn't included on the mafia, that's because she doesn't want to be part of the organization or mafia. She prefers shopping and such, rather than using guns.

I don't understand her taste, really.

Guns are more important than dresses and jewelries. It may be more expensive but it can protect you. Can those dresses protect you?

"There are intruders." I heard my father said.

"Nande org." sabi ko.

Pinakiramdaman ko ang paligid at naramdaman ko ang presence nilang nakapalibot sa base. I estimate that there are fifty of them, I think. Good thing I brought a hand g*n.

"Prepare yourselves." sabi ni dad at kinuha ang b***l niya at ikinasa.

We did the same thing pero hindi ko ito inilabas sa jacket ko. Napagpasiyahan naming lumabas para hindi na magulo dito sa base. Nanguna na ako at nakasunod sa akin 'yung ibang tauhan. Sumabay naman sa akin si Titus sa paglalakad.

"Ba't nauuna ka? It's too dangerous." sabi niya.

Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay. "This isn't dangerous." sabi ko saka binaril sa noo ‘yung sumulpot na intruder.

Sa noo ko sila binabaril dahil nandun ang isang vital organ. Minsan naman sa chest.

Nakalabas na kami ng base at nararamdaman kong nasa paligid lang ang mga intruders. Naramdaman kong may papuntang bala sa pwesto ko so I dodged it saka pinaputukan ang mga intruders sa paligid. Lumabas na sila kaya kumilos na kaming lahat. Pinapaputukan ko sila sa mga spot kung nasaan ang vital organs para siguradong hindi sila makakaligtas.

Nang wala na kong kakalabanin ay dumiretso ako sa paglakad. Meron pa kong nararamdaman na presence. At tama naman ako dahil may sumulpot na isang babae sa unahan ko sa 'di kalayuan at sabay naming itinutok ang b***l namin sa isa't isa.

"As I have thought. Rank fifteen, Nande organization ang nandito." I said with a smile.

"Yeah. Good to see you again, Kryssa Lavelle Vaughan." sabi niya.

"QSZ-92? Nice choice." I said, referring to her g*n.

She nodded. "Taurus PT92, right?"

"Yeah."

"Any last words, Kryssa?" she asked while smirking.

I didn't hesitate to shoot her twice on her chest, where her heart is. That's one of the vital organs.

Nabitiwan nya yung b***l nya at napaupo siya sa lupa while clutching her shot chest where blood is continuously flowing. Nilapitan ko siya at kinuha ang b***l niya saka ito itinutok sa ulo niya.

Napatingin naman siya sa akin nang masama. "Don't you ever call me Kryssa. Hindi tayo close." sabi ko saka siya binaril.

She laid dead on the floor, blood trickling on her skin. Inalis ko naman 'yung bala ng b***l niya at itinapon sa kaniya ang unloaded niyang b***l.

Lumingon ako at saka itinutok agad 'yung b***l sa tao sa harap ko. "Whoah! Easy, Lavelle." sabi ni Titus habang nakataas ang kamay.

Tss. Ibinaba ko ang b***l ko at naglakad pabalik.

"Dahil lang sa tinawag ka niya sa unang pangalan mo, binaril mo agad. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk." sabi ni Titus.

"Eh sa hindi kami close. Only my family calls me that." sabi ko.

May naramdaman akong presence. Nakita ko na lamang na hawak na ng isang lalaki si Titus at nakatutok ang b***l nito sa sentido ni Titus.

Tss. Bagal kasi maglakad.

"Wag kang lalapit. Gawin mo ang ipapagawa ko at papakawalan–"

Binaril ko agad siya sa noo nang dalawang beses. Buti na lang sobrang tangkad niya. Andaming sinasabi eh.

Nagsimula na ulit akong maglakad pabalik sa base. Sumabay naman sa akin si Titus maglakad.

"Grabe ka naman Lavelle! Hindi ka man lang talaga nagdalawang-isip na barilin siya kahit pwede niya akong patayin." sabi niya.

"So?"

"Sakit ah!" reklamo niya saka nagdrama pang nasaktan.

"Tss. Hindi ka nabaril at buhay ka kaya manahimik ka na." sabi ko at binilisan ang paglalakad.

"Miss Lavelle, pinapatawag na po kayo ni Master Leon for dinner." sabi ng isang maid nang pumasok siya sa kwarto ko.

"Okay. Susunod na lang ako." sabi ko at umalis na siya.

I changed into a simple black shirt and pajamas. After changing, I went to the dining room.

Nakita kong nakaupo na sila doon at kumakain. Umupo na ako sa tabi ni Lawn.

I started to place some pasta on my plate, then started eating.

"Lupet mo Lavelle! Alam mo agad na taga-Nande 'yung intruders." sabi ni Lawn.

"Whatever." sabi ko at itinuloy ang pagkain.

Pagkatapos kumain ng pasta ay kumuha ako ng steak and I gracefully sliced a portion then ate it.

"How's school, Kate?" tanong ni dad.

"Okay naman dad and oh! The school's president is dead." sagot ni Lucy.

I prefer calling people by their second name, if ever there is, by the way.

Nakita ko sa peripheral vision ko na palihim na tumingin sa akin sila dad, mom at Lawn pero itinuloy ko lang ang pagkain ko.

"Oh. Pano daw nangyari ‘yun?" tanong ni dad.

"It was said that he was shot by an outsider." sagot ni Lucy. Tumango-tango naman si dad. "Oh. I have to call Mhay. I'll go to my room na." sabi ni Lucy saka umalis.

"How's your day, Kryssa?" tanong ni mom.

Ibinaba ko naman ang utensils ko and I wiped my mouth with a cloth. "Well about dun sa president, he's the spy so he's disposed. I know that the officers will call me for an investigation tomorrow." sabi ko at tumango naman sila. "Titus told me that Gavin Ryou has been following me kaninang nasa school pagkagaling ko sa president's office. Later on, nakita ko naman siya na nakatingin sa akin. I know that hindi ako namalikmata lang." patuloy ko.

"Sa tingin mo ba, alam niyang ikaw ang may gawa nun?" tanong ni Lawn.

"Based on my calculations, there is an 85% possibility that he knew." sabi ko saka tumingin kila mom and dad. "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, Kryssa. Meron pa rin namang 15% possibility na hindi niya alam. Just be ready." sabi ni dad.

"Okay, dad."
