Robert’s POV
{Flashback}
After sending the doctor to treat Hailey, I went to my office.
Mafia Office. MO, in short.
“Sir, Ervin is still having his chance at the award ceremony” Cane informed me.
“It’s okay,” I said. “I missed that deal; I can’t do anything”
“Boss,” he said. “You worked very hard... and he-he took it”
“You don’t need to remind me that, Cane,” I said half frustrated.
“Boss, we can talk into this. You only lost this because on that day your wedding was set. You can-”
“Just let him win!!” I yelled. He never argued with me before.
“S-sorry boss,” he said.
It’s hard. Everything is hard. How long will I live two lives? It’s not possible. I’ll lose one day. I’ll lose myself. It’s getting suffocating every single day when I don’t even know what am I even living for.
“Robert,” Max said. Cane left the room. Max is my junior, and Cane and Ron are Max’s junior. So, they leave us alone when he enters.
