Moving Forward

Lucero had no idea how he got to his office. But before he realized it, he was sitting behind his desk, staring at nothing.The office was silent, just like the space in his head. His usually prim and proper desk now had papers scattered as he hand-slapped them away. Important documents littered the floor, too. Lucero hadn't moved since that morning. He hardly ever blinked. His eyes burned. His lips were dry and cracked. His skin had lost its usual color, and the dark circles beneath his eyes made him look almost sick.He hadn’t slept in days. He didn’t eat, not even taste water. The only thing keeping him moving was the thought of Anaïs.A knock sounded. Lucero didn’t answer. He was out of it completely. The door opened, and Matthew poked his head in. He took one look at the state of the room and knew that that morning hadn't gone well.Matthew was about to step in when he stopped…shook his head.“Nah… Im too young to die.” He muttered to himself before going out and closing the do

Evening came slower than he anticipated. Lucero kept looking at the time, hoping it would go faster. Dinner was at seven. By nine, he was in front of the Carter's mansion. The White mansion was brightly illuminated. Luxury cars filled the driveway; they belonged to important family members who had gathered for the dinner.Lucero’s was escorted to the dinning hall by a maid. Before he got close, he could already hear the laughter that echoed through the enormous halls.Everyone seemed happy, but as soon as he walked in, the laughter stopped abruptly. Lucero’s eyes moved through the guests. Some immediately looked annoyed, some angry, but none of them spoke against him.Lucero smirked. “Of course. How could they?”The dinner started. They had all been waiting for him. Everyone was happy and laughing- well, Everyone except Lucero.He sat at the long dining table, expressionless. Even if he looked better than that morning, he still looked almost alarming.Dark eye bags. Bloodshot eyes.
