The underworld overseas was murky.
Marion refused to keep the Bernard family in dirty business. He spent years cleaning the house.
To outsiders, he was a kingpin, taking out only the worst of the worst.
"Those days were rough," Marion said, holding Debra close. "But they're behind me. What matters is every second with you."
He felt like his life now was borrowed. Even if hell waited, this time with Debra was worth it.
He pulled a cross from his pocket and continued, "For a while, I believed in God. Now? I believe we make our own fate."
Only Debra saw his soft side. She was his everything.
He placed the cross in her hand. "Ever regret marrying a guy like me?"
"Dumb question." Debra pinched his nose. "Marrying you was the best call I ever made."
No one else would stand by her side so adamantly. After 20 years, they were part of each other. He was her love and family. They'd grow old together and find each other in the next life.
The sun set as they lay on the beach. Waves crashed like they had 20 years ago.
