LOGINTravis I fell out of Fester's trunk. I crawled my way into it when he wasn't looking.He stopped at the scene of the accident and went to take a look at the sight.While he was watching the damaged car, I knew that was my only chance to get out of here.I had no idea he drove into a hospital.—The wheels of the wheelchair squeaked against the hospital floor as the nurse pushed me down the hallway.Everything around me moved too quickly.Doctors hurried past with serious expressions. Nurses carried trays of medicine. Machines beeped from rooms on either side of the corridor.I could hear people talking, but their voices sounded distant, almost muffled.My head was still spinning.“Where are you taking me?” I asked.“To the emergency room,” the nurse answered. “We need to check your injuries.”“I don't need—”I stopped myself.The truth was, I didn't even know what I needed.My body was screaming at me to stop pretending I was fine.I looked down at my hands.They were trembling.The
Travis The car drove to a stop just behind the crashed vehicle.It was Mr. Alvarez's car—A black SUV.My heart stopped as his door flew open.I hid behind the tree and watched.He got out of the car, along with his bodyguard, while his driver sat still in the car.“Whose car is it?” He asked as he got closer to observe the damaged car.The bodyguard walked around to take a closer look. And that was when he saw the body that was good as lifeless on the floor.“Sir…” his bodyguard called his attention.I closed my eyes tight, knowing what the bodyguard was going to say.“What is it?” Mr. Alvarez asked, looking impatient.“It’s your son.”For a brief moment, relief was standing to come upon me that someone was here who could help Carlos.But that relief disappeared almost immediately when I saw the look on Mr. Alvarez's face.He wasn't simply worried.He looked terrified.He stepped toward the wrecked car, then stopped.His eyes widened.“No…”The word came out almost like a whisper.Hi
Travis The last thing I remembered was Carlos's hands.They were still around me, still fighting to keep me from breaking free, and I was still fighting back with everything I had. My lungs burned. My throat felt like it was closing up. I couldn't think clearly anymore.And then, the sound of a crash appeared. The sound that ripped through everything.Metal screamed and glass exploded.The car lurched forward so violently that my body was thrown against the seat. My face was buried in the safety pillow, but not before I got hit on my head by something. And for a moment, there was nothing.No sound. No pain. Nothing.Then my consciousness came back like merging pieces of a broken glass.First came the ringing in my ears.Then the taste of blood.Then the pain.God!The pain was quite unbearable.A sharp throbbing sensation that exploded through my skull. My chest felt as though someone had dropped a concrete block on it. My ribs screamed every time I tried to breathe, and my neck refu
TravisThe hum of the engine was the only thing keeping the silence from turning into a full-blown interrogation.I kept my hands locked on the steering wheel, my knuckles tight.I wanted to get out of here as soon as possible, and maybe knock Carlos to sleep too.I keep getting this weird feeling and I don't like it.Carlos sat in the passenger’s seat, leaning back, his eyes half-closed, looking for all the world like a man who had just begun to see the world for what it truly is.“So…what is my uncle like?” He finally decided to break the lasting silence.How I’d have loved to maintain that moment of silence.“He’s good.” My voice sounded thin to my own ears. I knew I was definitely lying. I don't know anything about his uncle.“You don't have to lie to me, I know who Dayton is.” He sounded boastful.“You didn't have to ask if you knew him so well.”Carlos grunted in response.“Wait a sec, I haven't even seen what you look like?” He started while scrolling through his phone. “My unc
Travis' The punch by Fester was only the beginning. It had triggered an unquenchable fury within Mr. Alvarez.He didn't fail to return his own punch, aiming for Fester's jugular. However, the blow hit his chin.In a blink of an eye, both men were throwing punches to see who was the greatest.I wonder if I should keep watching or I should use the moment to just escape instead.I began taking a few steps backwards to slip away from sight.“Ugh!” Fester groaned, leaning forward and holding onto his crotch. That was freaking nasty.How could Mr. Alvarez hit on his own brother's balls?Fester was whining about it. It must have hurt that much, I can imagine.I was hit once there too when I was in high school. By a ball, not a boy. I rolled my eyes.I had just taken a step out of the door when he voiced, “where do you think you're going?”“Mr. Alvarez…”“What?” Both men retorted with an angry gaze and glanced at each other.That's right, they're both Alvarez's. How could I have missed tha
Travis' I watched them banter each other with words I didn't even know existed.This began shortly after Carlos muttered nothing but rubbish as the rules binding them all. He should have just shut up, but instead he decided to cause havoc instead.Well, I'm undeniably enjoying it to be honest. I can't wait to see the first person that'll start throwing punches.I'll leave as soon as the argument gets intense. That way, they won't see me disappear.I sat calmly watching everyone throw words at each other and cussing.Like I said, they weren't using normal English. It's like they had a slang of their own. But somehow in the midst of it, I was able to grasp the topic. They were arguing about a failed mission which was led by one of the men at the table—Huston.He had black glasses on his face with a cigarette attached to his mouth like he doesn't give a fuck about what they were saying.It's interesting how he's fueling the hatred against him without even bothering.“Where are the drugs
Travis' POV"Where are we going?" I asked because we were in a hurry. One that Carlos drives."Just shut up and follow me!" He snapped, not harshly but excitedly.We made for the stairs and then to his room."What's going on..." He shuts the door and pins me upon it, before I could even ask.His ha
Carlos' POV I walk up to my father like other guests did.I've never considered him as father, but simply Jonathan my boss at work.If only I wasn't his only child, I'd have probably had a free life to live."This is my son Carlos." He introduced me to a woman by his side.She smiled warmly to me
Travis' POV I appeared before Carlos' door. How I hate to see him right now, but I have no choice.His father instructed me to bring him to the party.It shouldn't be a big task since the party is taking place in this house.I'll drag him to the venue if I have to.I placed a gentle knock on the d
TravisHe wrapped the towel around his waist and began walking away."That's not I meant, you're never too old for me." I tried convincing him as I saw that he had returned back to frowning.We got to the room and the I spotted the meal at the corner of a couch, where a table sat.Did I forget to m
