Remi Mae's POV
*Next morning*
I buttoned the last button on my uniform as I rushed out of the door.
Just as I walking down the hall, I heard my name being called from behind me.
Folding down my collar, I turned to see one of the guys sticking his head out the door.
Internally, groaning I raised an eyebrow.
" Yeah?"
" You mind checking on Charlie?"
I nodded, walking towards the room.
Entering in the door, I seen the same man from yesterday actually sitting up in the bed with a some what sleepy smile on his face.
" How you feeling?" I asked pulling up his shirt.
As I pulled off his bandaged he winced slightly.
" Much better today. The hot/cold sweats are gone. I'm not shaking all over the place. The pain has lessened."
I shook my head.
The wound looked much better.
The swelling was done, and it had a little bit of irritation around it but other than that it was returning to normal color.
I smiled at him.
" It seems to be doing much better. One more day of rest I would say that your able to get back in the field."
"Really?"
I shook my head.
" Yeah. Just continue to take care of the wound properly and you should be fine."
He chuckled. " I really thought that wound was gonna kill me. I guess it'll be old age after all."
I laughed.
I really didn't like these people but Charlie reminded me of my mom's dad.
Out of all the men I've had in my life, he was the best.
Never violent, never laid a hand on anyone, and always took me out for ice cream every week.
But soon enough he passed from a 'heart attack', which I don't think that's true at all. I think my father killed him, because he was trying to convince my mom to leave my dad.
I sighed.
" Well, I need to get to my shift. Let me know if you need anything."
He shook his head.
I turned around walking out of the room, and over to the elevator.
Riding it up to the first floor, I stepped out to see Jazmine standing there with a worried expression.
" Where were you?" She asked.
" I was helping with Charlie quickly."
She sighed. " Alright."
" Today you have all the bedrooms on the second floor, along with the bathrooms."
I shook my head picking up my basket of cleaning supplies heading towards the stairs.
Walking to the first door I seen, I opened the door walking in.
Turning on the light, I groaned.
There we clothes all over the place, along with the entire bed a mess. That wasn't even the worse part. The bathroom was completely destroyed.
How does a room get so messy in such little time.
Walking back in the room, I grabbed the basket that sat in the corner walking around and putting all of the clothes in it.
Once the clothes were picked up, I walked over to the bed pulling the sheet over ever corner, placing the pillows neatly stacked on the bed, the straightening out the blanket.
After a few more minutes everything was finally clean.
The bathroom looked more like a bathroom instead on a pigs den, and you could actually see the floor.
Picking up the basket of clothes I walked it over to the dresser.
I decided I was just going to comeback for all the clothes after I finished all the rooms.
Just as I bent down to pick up my cleaning supplies there was a knock on the door.
Matrix walked in.
He looked over the room, his eyes landing on the basket of clothes.
" I hope your not just going to leave that there."
I shook my head. " No. I was going to come back for it."
He nodded. " Good."
He looked me over, chuckling.
" I bet this brings back memories from you childhood doesn't it?"
I narrowed my eyes.
" Fuck you. You don't know anything about my childhood." I spat.
He raised a finger.
" That's where you're wrong. I know a lot on everyone here."
" Just how I know you were in Juvie 4 different times before the age 16. First time age 12, second and third 13, then at..."
" 14, yeah. I'm pretty sure I remember." I said cutting him off.
" Remind me, which of those time did you meet Devilynn?"
" The second. After I got out."
" And how'd you meet her?"
I sighed. " Devilynn helped me with some things. "
He shook his head.
" And how did you get away from your father, and into the gang business?"
" Devilynn." I whispered.
" So could you say you love her like a sister."
I looked down at the floor.
" Yes."
" I'm sorry. I didn't hear you."
" Yes."
" So you would never want to see anything happen to her?"
" No."
"Good." Was all he said before leaving with a smirk.
What does he have planned for us?
~~~
It had been a couple of hours and I was finally finishing up my last room.
Which also happened to be the Boss's office.
Somehow I managed to get stuck with an extra floor, but I didn't mind.
As much memories as it brought back it keep me busy from going into a depressive state.
Unlocking the door with the key that sat on the top of the door, I walked in closing the door behind me.
Looking around, I sat my basket on his desk.
Grabbing out my rag, I walked over to the bookshelf and started to dust.
As I was wiping down the shelf I seen a book that had caught my eye.
Setting the rag down, I reached for the book pulling it out.
As I pulled it out something came flying out of the bottom.
Shit
Bending down I picked it up turning it around.
I widened my eyes.
It was a picture of who looked to be a young Devilynn. Maybe 4 or 5, standing in the middle of a couple of different people.
None of which I recognize.
Hearing footsteps down the hall, I quickly shoved the picture in my apron standing up and pushing the book back on the shelf.
Just in time too.
The door opened, and one of Matrix men came flying in.
" What the hell are you doing in here?"
I looked over to him.
" Cleaning, what does it look like." I said with slight attitude.
He looked around examining the room.
" Your not supposed to be in here. Boss doesn't like anyone in here."
I shrugged.
" I was told to clean the floor, I'm just doing as I was told."
He sighed.
" It's fine. I won't tell boss this time. Just gather you things, and get out."
I nodded, walking over to the basket and setting the rag inside.
Grabbing the handle I picked it up walking past the man.
Stopping before I was all the way out the door, I patted him on his chest.
" Thanks." I said with a fake smile.
Turning down the hall, I let out a deep breath.
That was close.
