Award Ceremony | 2 |

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.
