you're?.

mobster husband.

I walk into my home after a long day at college, and the first thing I find welcoming me was a man, holding a loaded gun to the head of my dad.

Dad saw me freaked out.

"Hey! What's going on?". I said as I let go of my bags and ran to save him.

But the man, takes his hand back, following with the gun

.... "Muna, why are you here so early?".

Dad went up from his knees and slinked me back to his frightened gaze. "Dear, go to your bedroom,'. Dad instructed.

He pushed me in the direction of my bedroom.

I looked at mom as she gave me a slight nod.

I believe she also wanted me gone.

I left without getting my bags, I heard no noise, no one said anything until I banged the door to my bedroom.....

Immediately. The whispering began.....

I couldn't hear what they were talking about. However, the fright of a gun fixed to the head of my parents again made me more troubled.

I paced around my bedroom.

Then suddenly, I got a luminous idea.

I thought maybe I can get a glimpse of what was happening, by sneaking out of my bedroom without anyone knowing about it.

So. I left. Tiptoeing my way to the bars of the stairs, I met my parents talking with the man I met with them.

They acted like they were both having a severe discussion.

I kept on being attentive.. mom said, " sir! Please, we will find a way and pay up, please sir,". ...

"Yes! Please give us some time, sir,". Said, dad.

What exactly were they both begging?.

I kept my head a little further from me, my legs hurt in the process, and while trying to balance my feet, my hands slipped and I fell, rolling down the stairs.

Mom and dad immediately turned back to find me. They looked pissed, yet scared.

Mom ran to help me. " Dear are you okay?".. she held me up.

I shook my head. Dad wasn't smiling at all.

He wanted to speak, however, the man whom I met with them, interrupted when he walks before mom and me, asking to know my name.

"What's your name, dear,". He said.

Mom pulled me back," please sir, she's my only daughter, don't do this," mom begged, declining to look in his eyes. I bent my head over a little, and right there, I noticed that the man smiled, there was a grin of enjoyment in his eyes.

Who is he?. We locked eyes in the process.

....

Dad begged mom to walk me to my bedroom. Mom bounced her head, she grabbed my hand, and just when we were about to leave, we were stopped by the same man.

"No one leaves,". The strange man said. I let go of mom's hand and immediately faced him. We looked and when he noticed that I didn't once bring down my eyes to look away. I saw him grinning...

He looked at dad again and said.

"Mr. Nunan Daniels, I loaned you a huge amount of money for business, three years ago, you promised to repay, however you didn't, and you want me to give you extra time right?".

Dad shook his head, "yes, yes sir, please more time," he said, anxiously.

"Okay then, I'll give you more time, but in other, for that to happen, I'll take your daughter as collateral, for my wasted years,"...

Said the strange man.

Immediately mom denounced. She swore and begged dad not to accept.

I stared as everything tinkered before my eyes.

Dad, on the other hand, didn't have anything to say.

He was just quiet.

However, when he continued keeping silent, mom ran off to the strange man in anger and slapped him across his cheeks.

We were all astonished by her behavior.

And that seems to make things a lot complicated.
