"Thanks for helping me out there" I said to him with food stuffed to my mouth. For the first time since I came, I shared the same table with someone who truly cared, and worth it. "You're welcome" he replied, giving his meal his attention like he had no other business in the world. "I guess you're not used to people being good to you?" He was still on to his food on the tray which was unfortunately getting trimmed down to nothing. "Not exactly… you don't expect good when you don't do good, do you?" He stared at me for a while and shrugged. "Here, you can take mine" I offered him my food cheerfully. "Thanks, but you need to eat." He rejected the offer without even considering it, but I had been moved by his goodness that I would rather protest. "I'm a survivor, trust me…" I pushed the food tray to him and after a while of shaking his head, his spoon was dipped in, and the rest was history to be told by his belly. "Seems like you always got yours
The joy she felt was overwhelming, the day of her freedom. She could literally see it, she could feel it, and she could have it. But there were questions that had lingered long enough in her mind for the past twenty minutes. "What are you doing here?" She asked, utterly curious. "Serving my time in jail, what else does it looks like?" "What? Are you kidding me? What have you done?!" Her voice went up. "What do you care?" "Oh I do! I won't have you get your hands dirty because of me" "Needn't you worry about that. I just went to the police station and told them to take me in, and they did" "They did? Just like that? You just asked nicely and they threw you inside jail without a charge? Without any offence? No fucking way you're staying in this terrible place" She sprung up angrily and Logan held her hand. As comfortable as it could be, she had missed the feeling of being touched by Logan, she smiled in her heart for not getting to see hers
... "And we will get back to it" "Huh? No you're not…" Logan furrowed his eyebrows. "Okay, fine. You will. Just come inside, yeah?" "My boys can wait" Logan said walking toward her. "Yeah, they can… whoever they are" Camila muttered. Russ ran back in. "Get your friend, stay closely behind me. I'm not wasting another minute here" Said Logan determined to break them out. Camila wished it was true, because what kind of prison break plan involved getting killed first? Logan rushed inside, and Camila followed him, trying to keep up with his speed. "Where's the warden's office?" "Ri- right at the corner, we go left and straight up, his office is the last, managerial looking" "Good. Find your friend, I'll be back in a minute" "Wait- wha- what are you going to do?" She stammered, wondering what had come over him. "Find your friend and wait for me, I'll be back. That's what I said" he ran at once to the office, but there were some prison gu
“Take a long walk away from home. Take a walk along the seas, listen to the heartbeat of the waves of the oceans, listen to the cries of freedom from the shores,listen to the praises of the creatures scattered across the lines of the freedom, the likes of them , big, small, large, little, healthy and not, tall and not, done for or still living,breath in life from the wind, let your ears be merried with the pleasurable tune of the birds of the sky, so that, orgasm won't be far from reach,let your soul receive it, let it moan in pleasure, and let your Spirit rejoice in freedom, for today has been good, the 'morrow surely shall arrive, and with infants with it, to cause trouble, grief or sorrow, pain or affliction,but ye listen, remember Today, today along the sea, remember the pleasure across the shores, hold on it, for the 'morrow that cometh with infants of destruction will be consumed by the happiness,freedom, joy, love and peace that your soul and spirit hath received and
Logan and Camila shared a look. Logan felt a swarm of guilt roll on him. He felt more terrible than he had ever felt before. "Oh, wow" that was all he could say, without thinking. "People like you deal with people like them, don't you?" Russ asked. Logan looked at Camila as if he needed answers, and Camila slowly shook her head. He looked back at Russ with a slight chuckle. "I, um - I don't understand what you mean?" "I mean, the CIA is always chasing the bad guys—" "Like me?" Logan said with a chuckle, filling his cup to the brim, and he consumed it immediately. "I didn't say—" "Sometimes, Russ, bad people are bad because they need to survive in an evil and very very very bad world. Yes, I have my own cycle, yes, there was a time when I was on the run, but…" he paused, and looked into his eyes. "I don't know anything about Twain Russ, neither have I ever heard or seen of him" "You wouldn't anyways, it's been more than four decades
"What?!" Camila sprung up with unbelief. Her heart was failing her and her knees were shaking, a tumor through her whole body it was. "Calm down, love" "No! Don't ask me to calm down. You're leaving tomorrow, and you're just telling me today, this night, just a few hours away. So you have been lying to me all these while, Logan?! Huh?!" She got angry and Logan stood up to hold her, but she dashed back. "Don't… just don't" tears roamed freely inside her eyes and within l seconds, her cheeks had the same fluid trailing down. Logan couldn't stand seeing her cry, it was unlike her, but he'd better accept the changes he had also effected. He leaned closer, Camila shuddered backwards, but he held her hand. "Please, let me" he took his hand to her face and wiped Away the tears with his fingers. "I will be back… I promise" "You fucking had a plan…" she whimpered lightly. "You had a plan all these while" she repeated her own words as if trying to mak
Camila looked at him unbelievably and took some steps back. "I know the story you told about the night in Cuba that I said was just a tale…" her voice was quite shaky as she tried to get a grip on it. "But somehow it turned out to be true, even though it's crazy, you really killed Twain Russ and all those men—" "Are we going to ta—" "No, wait. It's crazy, but it really happened. You're not ordinary, that I already know, and would rather not know more, but me? Vampire? …" She chuckled crazily. "How you say it so bluntly…" "Because you need to know everything. There's more about you that you don't know…" Camila ran her fingers through her hair, expressing her frustration and confusion. "I'm a vampire? Why isn't it so much for me to take? Why does it feel like, like …" she gulped. "Like I have known it all these while but just didn't want it? Just didn't want to know it, didn't want to be it?" "Well, it is what you are" "And I hurt you?"
Camila felt the world stop rolling around, and in her throat was a lump that didn't seem to dissolve anytime soon. Her heart beat had some instances, she felt a heavy hit. "Camila?" Russ called to her hearing. But she wasn't taking the news lightly. "Camila?" He walked closer to her. Camila looked at him as if to say. "So this is it?" But she was speechless, and utterly out of it. "Let's go inside…" Russ assisted and took them inside. "Well how about the drinks? It's not gonna get down by itself!" "Sorry, pal. We don't need it, it's no fun anymore" Russ replied him and walked inside. The truck driver chuckled. "Did he just say sorry? …" His face lightened with a huge smile as he faced his truck. "Oh my God, I'm rich! I'm rich! I'm fucking rich!" He yelled out loud and hopped on it. **** "Are you okay?" Russ asked Camila. "Should I be okay, Russ? Should I really be okay? He planned it all before he went away, this isn't him caring about us or loo
