My headcanon is that she’s emotionally broken after Jack, which led to this little scenario. It’s not part of HND’s story it’s simply my own interpretation inspired by the fanfic.
Inspired & fueled by my love for:

I really hope you enjoy my take on their mafia designs! 🖤
That same tannish bike was leaning against the shelter. Great.. Maverick Madlock was here. That kid.. The quiet one. The kid who never spoke. Never let anyone get too close. The one with the too messy hair and the tanned, freckled skin. The one with the horrifyingly endless, apathetic black eyes. The kid who's revenge schemes were something no average teenager would think of. He had been volunteering for a few weeks now. His parents had forced him because they thought that 'Some community service will do him well'. Yeah right.. All Maverick does is wander around, mumble cryptic things under his breath when no one is watching, and is very hostile to any of the guests who ask for assistance. He isnt allowed near the guests anymore after.. the incident. No one likes speaking of it. The kid only causes more trouble than good. He is only allowed to clean. Because last time they put him in charge of cooking he tried to poison one of the guests with bleach. Ms. Abner couldn't do much about Maverick. He always covered his tracks a little too well. To the point he could get away with everything. But that didnt matter. He was here now. And the shelter didn't look as bright as it usually did with Maverick around. That tan bike was always a sign no one liked to see outside. No doubt the freckled kid was inside. How did he even get in? Ms. Abner hadnt even opened the doors yet. God knows.. Atleast no one was in there for him to harm.
(First time initiating this-)
The walk back to the shelter was usually an easy one.
It's only a couple of blocks on foot, and you're already at the door of The Open Arms, keys jangling in your hands. Yet for the past few weeks it was getting more and more difficult to walk this particular path.
The threatening messages, the strange dreams and, of course, him - Maverick Madlock. The kid that seems to come up with more and more stuff to mess up the work of the shelter. Despite Ramona insistently telling Mr and Mrs Madlock that the work at the shelter is a volunteer one and shouldn't be used as a 'lesson', they weren't listening.
And look what it led to - a visitor of the shelter nearly poisoned and a lot more scared to death, the other volunteers struggling to remain in the building when the teen is there. Letting him do jobs that don't require interaction with people was the least she could do.
Seeing the bike at the front of the shelter made Abner sight. She had no idea how he managed to do this several times, let alone why, but she knew one thing for certain - it's gonna be a huge headache for her no matter what.
Opening the door that was already unlocked with her stiff hands, she stood for a moment, listening for any sounds. Then, after not hearing a single sound but knowing he's there, she finally spoke loudly to be heard:
"C'mon, kid, I know you're here!" Her tone wasn't outright hostile, but wasn't happy either.
This edit is inspired by the fanfic The House Next Door. The story in this video is my own interpretation and is not taken from or written by the original author. I was mainly inspired by the characters’ personalities and the Mafia AU setting.
