School was over and it was a good day today minus the mafia thing. I was walking with Lily and Emery.

We were outside the entrance and i saw Noah in the parking waiting. I said goodbye to my friends and Emery again reminded me of the MAFIA thing before saying goodbye.

I was now nervous. Again questions started swirling in my mind.

'What ifs' were constantly bugging me, but I decided to trust my family to keep such big thing from me and moreover it is ridiculous to think about Mafias.

I went to Noah and called him and i suddenly became pale. He was on his phone and when he heard me call him, he immediately switched his phone off and turned to me but i think he saw my pale face.

I saw a bloody body with a gun shot on his forehead and chest and that person was looking familiar but i was not able to pin it.

"Hey sweety, it's nothing. It was umm.. One of my patient. You know I'm a doctor right." He said and nervously laughed.

I just looked at him. Maybe I wouldn't have suspected it if my family was not accused of, of being in mafia. Now I wanted to investigate.

Okay, investigate is quite heavy word. I'll look into this matter but for now I don't want to make them suspicious of me being suspicious of them being in mafia.

I just smiled a little and nodded. He looked relieved and then proceeded to ask, "So how was your first day? "

With this he opened my passenger seat door and helped me get in and then he went to drivers seat and started the car.

I smiled wide and replied, "it was awesome. I even made friends and they all are nice. "

"Does your friends include boys? " He asked while driving and it looked like he didn't care about my answer but only I know how serious he was.

"Yes" I said and he suddenly looked at me, maybe expecting a different answer but i caught him off guard.

I laughed and said, "don't worry they all are awesome and twins also met them. "

He again nodded dumbfounded.

"By the way, where are the twins? " I asked suddenly remembering them.

"Ohh, they had a soccer practice, so they'll come later."

We talked about here and there and finally reached home.

I happily went inside and was met with the sight of Ethan cooking. His back was facing me, so I sneaked behind him and suddenly hugged him.

He jumped a little and tensed and i saw his hand went to grab a knife and his shoulders relaxed when he realised it was me. I was giggling but after watching his reaction, I again started thinking about the school talk.

He turned and acted like nothing happened and he hugged me.

"How was your day? " He asked enthusiastically.

"It was very good" I said smiling but my smile was reduced.

I then excused myself to go and change and Ethan asked me to come downstairs to eat something after I freshen up.

I went to my room, kept my bag near study table and then dropped myself on the bed and watched white ceiling.

Again Mafia thing was on my mind. It's like now I'm paying more attention to my surroundings.

I'm suspecting them more and more.

And to get rid of these suspicions and these thoughts, I have to check 3rd floor and basement.

But

What am I even gonna do?

If what Emery said is true, what will i do?

I'm in a different country and there's no way I can go back to new York.

What will i do?

But i have to find truth.

I changed my clothes and went downstairs to see Ethan was not there but he made burger for me and there was a note beside it.

'I had an emergency meeting,

Twins will be back soon and

If you need anything, and

Dustin is in his room.

Luv u

Ethan'

Is this my chance to check. Otherwise someone is always there with me everytime. I remember Noah telling me that dad, Ryan and him will be busy.

First of all i have to look out for Dustin.

I took half my burger and went to Dustin's room while eating. I slowly opened his door and saw he was on his phone.

He looked in my direction when he saw I opened the door.

I sheepishly said "Hi"

"Hey, how was your day today? "

He asked.

"It was pretty cool" I said and asked, "you want burger?"

"No thanks" He smiled and went back on his phone.

Now I was hoping he don't get out of his room.

When Dustin saw me still standing, he asked, "you wanted anything? "

"Oh, no no, I was just going. I have a lot of homework." I said and went back to eat my half burger without waiting for his reply.

Now to ensure Dustin don't suspect I have to do something.

I have an idea.

I went to my room quickly. Dustin's room is close to mine. So I took my tab which my family bought for me and played songs. It'll make Dustin think that I'm in my room listening to songs.

I have to be quick since twins will be here soon. So I slowly ascended the stairs and walked up to third after making sure the songs were of the vol to reach to Dustin.

I stepped on the carpet of the third floor and froze.

There were cameras there.

Shit

I can't go if cameras are there. I was still out of cameras reach and saw there are 2 big doors on opposite sides and some normal size doors.

Now not only the cameras were an obstacle but I saw locks on the door.

Damn it.

I can differentiate that the 2 rooms with big doors were the offices.

I can't do anything today. Now, I think if my lock problem is solved, the camera won't be a big issue. I don't think they'll specifically watch the recording.

So I have to hatch a better plan to find the truth and the truth about the kind of business they do.
