THE MAFIA HEIR - EPISODE 5

★★★★★

All eyes went wide as it hit Brandon’s face but Nirvana’s is the widest

“What the f*ck!” Brandon yelled, unable to open his eyes cos of the pepper

“What have you done” Kara said

“I’m so sorry, I never knew it’ll spill” Nirvana quivered

” Shut up! This is my house and you came here just to disfigure my face?, How f*vking rude!, My f*ck!” He yelled and started finding the way back in with his hands, he almost fell most times but held himself till he got to the bathroom and washed his face

“Why must you show your clumsiness everyday, why must you always be clumsy! ” Kara yelled

” I’m sorry grandma, I’m so sorry, it’s not my fault, I just… I..” she said, about to start crying

” Don’t cry please” Grayson said, holding her till Brandon came back

” And who the hell are….”

He stopped halfway when he finally saw Nirvana

” You again little stalker?, So throwing an handkerchief you blew your nose on isn’t enough and now you came to my house to do this shit?, Why are you always like this? ” He demanded

He looks scary to Nirvana so she held tightly to Grayson

Brandon looked at grandma Kara and tried hard to calm himself down

“I’m sorry about how my granddaughter behaved” Kara said

Brandon looked at her and heaved

” I’m sorry on her behalf too, so sorry” Grayson said

Nirvana found it hard to look at Brandon in the face so she buried her face in Grayson’s arm

“Goodday” Brandon said to Kara

“I’m sorry once again, we live in the house next to this so we figured out that this house has a new occupant, we decided to come say hi to you as the new neighbor” Kara said

” Oh” Brandon said, looking at the mess on the floor

” I’ll take care of it, just get me a mop stick and a bowl of water” Grayson said

Five minutes later**

Brandon is sitting on one of the living room couches while Kara is sitting facing him, Nirvana is sitting beside Kara with her face down

Grayson is busy cleaning the mess Nirvana created

“Such a waste, I brought the delicacy for you but too bad this whinny brat ruined it” Kara said

” It’s ok , thanks for coming” Brandon said as politely as he could

” I heard you’re a doctor at Preston hospitals” Kara said

” Yes I am” he replied

” Hope it’s not too stressful over there?” Kara said

“It’s always stressful, I mean… Being a doctor is always as stressful as hell, having unscheduled surgeries, stubborn patients and annoying co-doctors” he replied

” Oh, but you’re coping and that’s just great” Grayson said after finishing the cleaning, he sat beside Nirvana

“I’m slowly losing patient and I might just quit working at Preston hospitals very soon” Brandon replied

” It must be really hard” Kara said

Grayson now has the time to stare at Brandon’s arm tattoos, he’s obviously surprised cos for a doctor, he wasn’t expecting to see that

“I love your tattoos” he said

“Thanks” Brandon replied casually

” But as a doctor, the hospital management aren’t complaining?” Grayson asked

” I own my body and I can do anything I want with it, and besides… I have no future so I’m not afraid of anything that might happen” he replied

” What kind of a human says he has no future” Kara said

” That kind of a human is Brandon Greg” he replied

“You share the same surname with the notorious mafia Zelda Greg” Grayson said

” Anything wrong with that?” Brandon said

“Oh… I mean.. no” Gray replied awkwardly

” Great” Brandon replied

“Can we be friends?, I mean… I can come here when you’re around and we can hang out together” Grayson said

” I’m twenty two” Brandon said

“I’m twenty one” Grayson replied

“Exactly my point, I don’t hang out with younger people” Brandon said flatly

” How straightforward” Kara muttered

“What should I offer?, Just mention anything and I’ll get it cooked” Brandon stood

” You can cook? ” Grayson asked..

” You can’t cook?” Brandon asked

“Well…. I can.. ”

” Little stalker, you aren’t saying anything” Brandon interrupted and Nirvana quickly looked up

” Huh? ” She said sharply

“Should I get you lollipop or candy?, Little girls like you will always love such things” Brandon said

” I’m not a little girl, I’m nineteen” Nirvana replied slowly

” There’s still teen at the back of your age, till you turn twenty, you’ll remain a little girl… To me” Brandon replied

Nirvana adjusted her glasses to stop herself from crying

Somehow, hearing him call her a little girl is sad

“You’ve met her before?” Kara asked

“Yes, though it was an unpleasant meeting, at a museum” Brandon replied

” Oh” Kara replied

” Nice house” Grayson said, looking around

“Thanks” Brandon replied

” Well it’s past seven, we’ll leave now, sorry about the mess earlier once again, next time I’ll make sure to bring a more delicious delicacy” Kara said

” Thanks’ Brandon said as they left the house

Brandon fell back on the couch and inhaled hard. “That was…. great, it’s been long since I had many companions” he heaved

The Merricks**

Nirvana rushed to her room immediately they got home and Grayson followed but she has already locked the door when he got there

“Hey, what’s wrong” he said by her doorstep

“Nothing, I just need to rest” she replied from inside

” Ok, I guess I’ll see you tomorrow morning then, sleep tight and goodnight” he said

” Goodnight’ she replied

“I love you” he said

“I love you more” she replied from inside and Grayson smiled before leaving her footstep

“I’m such a clumsy b*tch, I embarrassed myself in front of him, I really really embarrassed myself I’m a b*tch, will he ever like me?, So he’s twenty two and he kept calling me a little girl cos I’m still a teen, that punk” she thought, crying already

She fell on her bed and continued crying loudly

“How do I apologize to him?, How do I?, He’s bad-mouthed so it’ll be hard to get on his good side” she thought and went to her window

She luckily saw him pacing around his bedroom and smiled

“Doctor Brandon Greg” she smiled

He saw him lightening up something, it’s a cigarette and he started smoking

“He… Smokes?, What kind of a doctor smokes?” She asked herself, bewildered at what she’s seeing

“Well maybe that kind of doctor is my crush, doctor Brandon Greg” she smiled, sitting by the window till she slept off

Next day, Preston hospitals**

Brandon is just concluding the second surgery for today and he’s greatly exhausted as he came out of the theatre

“Hey you must be tired” Heather said, rushing beside him to keep up with his pace

” Of course, two tedious surgeries is no joke” he replied

Heather suddenly took his hand and squeezed it lightly

“Should I give you a massage in your office?’ she asked

Brandon smiled, looking at her closely but he removed his hand from her hold before answering

“No”

“Why?, You said you’re tired” she replied

” The last time I checked, you’re a doctor, not a massager” he replied flatly and left for his office

” He’s always so uptight, no space for penetration” Heather heaved and Mateo’s call rang on her phone

She picked and waited for him to speak

“Let’s meet in front of the hospital” his voice said

” For what?” She replied

” Just come already, it’s a surprise” he replied and she hung up

” Hoping to see something worthy of surprise” she thought as she walked out of the hospital

She met him outside the hospital with several other doctors and interns, they’re admiring a car and the car is just new

“Meet my new baby!” Mateo said, gesturing happily at the car

” What!” Heather said

“I got it just this morning, what do you think” he said

” I think you’re in need of a psychiatrist, are you insane?, Why are you always in love with material things” she replied

” Cos material things are the best!, Call Brandon and inform him, he’ll almost die” Mateo said and a crashing sound can immediately be heard

Everyone turned their attention to the car and found out the rear glass is broken, someone definitely threw a stone at it

Mateo rushed to it and screamed

“My baby!, Who the hell did this!”

“Hot doctor” the others started muttering as Brandon entered their midst

“So it’s you?, I knew it, you’re jealous and that’s why you freaking did this!, Do you know how much it’s worth?” Mateo said

” It’s the latest model so it’s definitely twenty million dollars, send me your account number, I’ll wire you the money and also a bonus for lollipop” Brandon said

” What the hell” Mateo said

Heather smiled on her spot

” The fact that I always come to work driving just one car everyday doesn’t mean I’m poor, my account balance will drive you into coma” Brandon said and left immediately

“So now Mateo, I hope you’ve learnt your lesson” Heather smiled and went in too

” That rascal….damn it!” Mateo ranted

*****

An Ice cream shop**

Nirvana suddenly raised her head from the table and faced Farrell who’s sitting across her

“I’m screwed, can you advise me?” She said

” I’m always here for you silly girl, what’s up this time around” Farrell replied

” I’m so dead Farrell, I got in the black book of my crush during our visitation yesterday, I really need to apologise to him” she replied

” Then do it” Farrell replied, eating her ice cream slowly

” He’s not an easy one, he has a very bad mouth you see, I’m so embarrassed to face him, what do I do” she replied

” Our dear Nirvana is lovesick, sorry baby but you deserve it, you’re too clumsy and trust me he can never love a clumsy girl like you” Farrell said

” I’m screwed” Nirvana said

” Don’t start crying here” Farrell said, patting her back

****

7pm**

Brandon is driving home from the hospital silently as usual when his phone rang, it’s Reagan

“Hey b*tch” he picked but when he heard gunshots in the background, he knew everything is not ok

“Brandon over twenty hitmen are surrounding my house right now, they were even more than thirty before but I managed to bring down ten already, please come and help I beg you, I might not be able to handle the rest alone” she said

” You should be calling Zelda instead, I’m not your boss” he replied

” Stop talking and get here this instant!, You have just five minutes!” She replied and hung up

Brandon turned his car around and zoomed down her street, it took him only five minutes till he got there, he masked up and got his gun before entering the house as slowly as ever

He can hear the gunshots as he climbed up the fence and jumped down, he came across one of them who tried to shoot him instantly but he was faster, he raised his leg and kicked his gun off his hands before shooting him

Seems the others got alerted by that gunshot cos the gunshots died down immediately

He started tiptoeing towards the main house till he got attacked again by another who grabbed his neck from behind, trying to strangle him but he hit him with his elbow and he let go of him

He punched his face and made him stagger before he tried to retaliate but Brandon dodged and his punch hit the wall hard

“Bloody bastard” Brandon said and gave him just a punch on the nose which made him stop breathing, he fell down lifelessly and immediately, massive gunshot started

Brandon rushed to guide himself with the available shields while he shot anyone he sights

It went on like that for almost tweny minutes and the whole house is clouded by gunshots

He kept shooting, bending, jumping and rolling on the ground when necessary and he combated a lot, killing them mercilessly till he got into the house where more than fifteen hitmen are lying lifelessly

Reagan is sitting on one of the couches, smoking rebelliously but Brandon can’t help but sense there’s still one of the hitmen in the house

“Trying to be like me huh?” He said

“There’s no problem with that is there?” She replied

” Of course there isn’t” he replied and heard movements behind him

” Watch out!” Reagan said and Brandon ducked as a gunshot sounded

“Ou!” Reagan winced, the bullet actually hit her arm

Brandon swiftly turned back and didn’t hesitate to shoot the bastard, he made him go down instantly before rushing to Reagan

“Are you ok?” He asked, holding unto her

“I’m ok jerk, just remove the darn bullet from my arm” she replied

” Where did you put your medical equipments?” He asked

” I don’t remember” she replied

” Your arm is bleeding greatly, do you wanna die?’ Brandon said

“No” she breathed

“You’re just…I dunno” Brandon replied and guided her out of the house

” Where are you taking me to?” She asked

“My house” he replied and she smiled secretly

” Those are surely Harris men” she said

“You recognize one of them?” He asked as she entered the car with him

” No, but they’re all wearing black on black, that’s the Harris code” she replied

” I’ll send someone to dispose their corpses off” he said and started the drive to his house

*****

” Good Jesus, give me the strength” Nirvana thought as she made to ring Brandon’s doorbell for the fifth time but she stopped, losing courage

She really wants to apologise but she’s losing courage like hell

“When I get in, I’ll just say… doctor Brandon, I’m sorry for how I behaved yesterday and the last time at the museum, forgive me and let’s be friends” she memorized and made to ring the doorbell again but the zooming in of a car made her stop and look back

Brandon’s car stopped in front of the house and he came out of the car with another girl

Immediately Nirvana saw the girl, she felt heartbroken

“Little stalker?, I guess you’re here for your lollipop” Brandon said

Tears welled up in her eyes as he watched him holding Reagan by the arm

“Is she your girlfriend?” She asked, crying already

” What the heck” Brandon laughed…
