When I opened my eyes I already thought I was on my way to heaven's gate but instead, Angie's sweaty face greeted me it made me remembered what happened with Rem. I slowly prop myself up looking around for any sign of Rem and Gina. But they were nowhere to be found only me and Angie in their clean apartment. As if there were no signs of forced entry or a bloody fight. I turn to Angie confuse, shouldn't we call the police? I could only imagine the worst that Angie was too late to stop Rem from running out of the mess the gang made and his murder.
Angie just stared at me letting me process this new environment by myself. But nothing clicks. Angie noticing I was still clueless just told me to help her give Gina a proper burial before burning the house.
What?
There were still a lot of things I couldn't wrap my head-on. Including how Angie was skilled to even only kill the man with a butter knife. Who are you really Angie Leigh?
"So you are telling me that your uncle is a mafia boss?"
"That's what I heard of apparently their family agrees on dealing with life the easy way."
All of these were slowly making me lose my sanity. This wasn't supposed to be my business. I always tried to distance myself from people especially their clique.
Angie told me that when I passed out she stopped her act and brutally stabbed Rem in the back of the head. The image in my thought making my hair stand up. I'm glad I didn't see him at that time. I stayed silent as Angie tries to hold back the tears threatening to fall from her cheek. She kneels in Gina's grave chanting the words of revenge over and over again each time her voice cracking. They must have been really close friends, and to think that her friend Gina would die like this. I felt remorse for her even though I was worrying for myself. What will happen after this?
"You know I always had a suspicion that Rem was just playing her but it turns out he had darker intentions, and I bet it has to do with my uncle."
"What is it about your uncle that he keeps revolving around you?" I couldn't stop myself from asking I needed to know how deep I am already in the rabbit hole. But she just said nothing she just simply stared at me. So I move on to another question.
"Why do you think Rem was involved with your uncle's business?"
"He was simply off." she plainly answered.
I sigh as I knew I'm not getting a proper answer. I just followed her around and try to help as much on clearing shreds of evidence. After that Gina and Rem's apartment burst into raging flames. If Angie was right on her conspiracy then her uncle would probably get this message. That he lost this round. But how many rounds will it take until someone trips in their own feet and harm themselves or rather the other killing them in cold blood?
No matter how it will end I will not go down with this. Angie already set her eye on someone else and I hope she won't look in my way ever again.
