Patience

Aren't we all sinners in this world?

Darkness lurks with us as a part of humans, It's inevitable. Well, there is no differentiating light from dark and good without evil. I'm neither justifying myself nor making you understand my logic I'm simply letting you know I DON'T CARE.

The basement is one of my favorite places, this is where I torture my betrayers and my enemies. Sitting before me is a businessman one of my favorite ones. The silent ones are the most vicious creatures they say *boy is it wrong* this big rat pretended to be my confidant and sold drugs to school kids, teenagers, and so on "Are you enjoying your little visit Mr.Nate?" I asked him as circled his chair for observation. Can't afford to let him have an easy escape. My men enjoyed themselves with him. All his limbs are tied up to the hands of the chair, his face a disgusting shade of red and purple from his bruises, and his mouth is tied. I don't enjoy killing or torturing it's what is just a requirement to get what I want. 

"Mmmmm hmmmm" he emitted unintelligible noises when I removed his pinky from his hand people won't be cooperative without pain and I don't make empty threats ever.

"Do you want to stop your people from exporting the drugs by yourself or want me to do the favor for you, hmm?" I asked placing the cutting playing near his ring finger and removing the cloth tieng his mouth.

"I'll do it myself " he pled and untied his right ad tossed his phone at him. That was boring seems like my men had a lot of fun. He orders his men not to export the drugs and I killed him. One good thing was done before death. If the drugs were to be exported today I can't do anything about it, that how secretive this business is.

That's when my phone rang "Yes, Appa" I answered the phone, my father is American but my mother is from India so we are thought to never forget our native languages.

"Did the Nate job done?" he asked and I informed him that the export was stopped and then about his death

"We could have bargained more from his organization if he was alive." he signed 

Seriously? Appa wanted him alive? Damn

 "You are sharp, precise, and good at gathering information but you need more patience, So I agreed on your Amma's cousin's offer in India, the one who has an NEET institution in his school." I always knew I'll take over our family business we are like the ruler of an underground world and have a business image for outsiders to keep it legal.

 "What can I do in a school, Appa? Teach?" I asked sarcastically 

"Yes, They are short of chemistry teachers. Since you completed your degree in chemistry I accepted and nothing can teach you patience more than teaching teenagers " he said his tone serious. I waited for him to laugh and say this is all a joke but it never came. Seems like I messed up big this time 

"When Appa?"

"Your Amma and I decided that you leave for India tomorrow since it's Thursday today, You will have Sunday to relax and start your job on Monday"

"How long have you guys been deciding this?"I asked knowing very well it's useless to argue now. When both of them decide something it's final no room for different results.

"A while son" is all he gives me.
