Sixty Fifth✨

"Who's Hope Hutchin dad?"
She asked while looking at her food

All of them looked at her amused
She slowly lifted her head.

At this moment Scott wanted to go back to Athen's grave and kill him again.

"Dad-"
She called him again hoping for an answer but he intrupted her.

"We don't know, focus on your dinner and get rest, it's very late. You also need to take medicine on time, nurse must be waiting for you, you look tired as well, you did great job today, i am very happy, but this time is for your-"
He spoke trying to make her forget what she was talking about. But she stopped her.

"Dad tell me. . . Please."
She demanded at first sentence and then begged him at last.
All of them looked at her, all of their eyes were saying to forget about the topic, to not talk about that.

"Why you suddenly wanna knows about this person?"
He asked her, he doesn't want to talk about this

"Because i get fucking nightmares!"
She said, she was so tired.

"Nightmares?"
All of them said confused

"Yes, from the day i woke up i get weird dreams,
l-like i am in the crib, and a man is standing infront of me, their was a man l-little far away from me, and some more people i think."
She was speaking annoyed, she was exhausted.
For Scott it was the scene of the day when he went to her biological family to kill them, it was same scene.

"I-I suddenly saw the person who was infront of me k-killing that man, who was laying there, h-he said he was my Father. And a woman told that man my name,

Hope, Hope Hutchin

Then suddenly that man looked at me h-he looked like, like d-dad.
W-Why am i having these dreams? I am so irritated! Please tell me something."
She requested him
He never wanted to say this but he has to, he just wanted to finish This.

"I was in mafia."
He started Finding no option

"M-Mafia? You mean that gangster, guns and all?'
She said shocked

"Yes, we were on our mission to kill him. He took money from us."
Scott said, other family members also never heard this story, so this story was new to them.

"So you killed them, for your money and took me with you to conver your sins?"
Veronica asked bitterly

"No! Litsen to me first!"
He said loudly he doesn't want her to judge him. She kept her judging mind aside and stayed quite to litsen him, it was as loud as he used to be, when he used to scold her. But this time there was emotions in his words.

"I didn't kill her, that w-women of that house. It was Athen, yes yes i killed that man, but it was only because he had bad plans with h-his daughter."
He tried to make her understand that, that man who is her so called biological father, he was not good person. Also he didn't kill her mother. It was Athen.

"Athen, the guy who attacked me? So he used to work with you?"
She asked

"That man took alot of our money when Athen's brother went their to take them back to that man he killed him, this is why Athen wanted him and his family dead, he killed his wife first and she slowly died, that man told us some of his dirty plans, he was saying b-bad things about you so i killed him-"
He stopped when she suddenly asked

"What did he said dad?"
She wanted everything to be clear, so that she doesn't see Scott as killer.

"He- he used to sell girls to- people, and he had same plans for you, Your mother -"
He finally called that women her mother, because she deserves to be called her mother not that dog.

"-she was fighting for you till the very end, she told me to take care of you, your name,- i- i am sorry, i had to hide this from you."
He told her, he couldn't look at her

"You saw her dieing, why didn't you save her, she didn't kill whoever that person was."
She asked, this is the first and the last time they are talking about this, so she wants everything to be clear.

"I know and, i am sorry, i didn't know-"
He was not able to speak, he couldn't find any words.

"So you used to kill innocent people?"
She asked sarcastically
Other members were quite litsening that awkward talk it was same surprising to them as it is to Veronica

"Athen was mad for his revenge, he wanted everyone belong to him dead. When he killed her i didn't do anything, i wanted to stop but, i. . . . didn't.
Then he shooted that man, he died by my bullet, he then came toward you, and then i knew i had to protect you."
Silence this was only they could here.

"Athen later knew that i. . . made you my family, he couldn't take it and threatened me to kill you, i did everything to protect you, fake accident, again an adoption showing that hope died and i adopted other girl, the only thing was left, was that tattoo. When he knew about you, about my lie, he again started his game."
Veronica was processing everything slowly, this much happened in her life and she doesn't even know this, she was way far then a shock. She was on Target of a ex mafia, and she is herself a ex Mafia leader's daughter.
this means the crime story she used read with interest, she is the main character of that story.

"I. . . met Athen once when i was in park, i, think, that day somehow he saw my tattoo."
She confessed remembering that weird creepy guy.

"Let's not talk about this ever ever in our life. I want all of us promise."
Scott said signing, he couldn't be a good dad, he lost it, this game. Lili was right, they should have told her before. Maybe this would have never happened then.

"Last question."
She said, Scott's breath got heavy.
He looked at her and she hesitated to speak.

"What did you do with them after they died, i mean- their, b-bo-"
She was cutted of by Scott he knew what she want to know, she deserves to know this.

"I threw his body in nearby bridge's dirty spoiled rotten water, and we did her last rituals respectfully."
He told her proudly. He doesn't regret dumping him in water.

"We smoked there lots of time."
She mumbled to herself before chucking

"I want to see her, grave."
She told him, he nodded understanding.
There was again a very very long silence, they again started eating, no one intrupted father daughter in that talk, so much was going in her head.

"Veronica?"
He called her softly

"Yes dad."
He felt formality in her voice like before, they become so formal before.

"Do you find me guilty?"
He asked slowly, he looked deeply in her eyes, then,

She passed out.
