After my parents got killed by the mafia, some kind of a lawyer came to me did the normal blah blah blah process, according to him my parents were already aware that they would be dead sooner or later so they wrote a will and since i was the only survivor, I got it all to myself...I didn't have relatives that much, as long as I could remember so I took care of myself..I was smart with money so as little as I was, I knew what investment meant...cause if I really wanna survive if I was sure to streak the mafias, then I needed one ...so i invested in some business ventures and managed to multiply the inheritance my parents left me. Slowly, I built a small empire of my own not huge enough just something a curious teenager could come up with, I think I started living properly the moment they actually killed my parents and I knew deep down, I knew that revenge was still on my mind.
The lawyer's words echoed in my mind as I sat alone in his office each time I went to do my Normal check with them, it was necessary I came every month , while he was surrounded by the success that he earned for fighting for people's innocence...and I was just a normal teenager who doesn't know what next to do with his life apart from rendering it useless in a way...not long after I entered his office...he came in with his usual suite and tie and sat down on his chair .
" we've passed the stage of greeting huh ..." he asked me that was when I realized I haven't greeted him yet...ugh whatever it's no big deal though.
" Good day if that's what you wanna hear so bad...let's just get this dumb meeting over with I've got stuffs to do " and I when i said stuffs I mean nothing actually but I just don't like this man ...his always weirds me out .
" And that's part of what I want us to address today though I already came to a conclusion though and you have to follow suite ".. now this guy is really scarying me now ...
" okay ,that's doesn't sound scary at all what's it you wanna talk about huh " I said out of curiosity ...I don't trust this man a dent cause I know what he was capable off.
" well I've arranged a place for you ...it's called a foster home where teenagers like you who are ...what word should I use for it bastard like...you who don't have parents, that's where they go to and I already signed all required documents for you to move there ..." he spat out proudly like he didn't just ruin my life just now ...I opened my mouth and the first thing I asked him was ..
" And what about my business and everything ...wait what do you mean I have to go ....I ain't going nowhere"...I refused bluntly..
" ah,ah it's not a choice and as for your properties...it's written in my name now, it's all mine ..." he said with a grin, he was really enjoying this show he was putting on.
" you are worst than them...you son of a bitch ...you traitor ...I swear if anything should be taken away from me...I will find you later ..I swear..." I was so furious but he didn't even glince or say anything to me he watched me talk like I was just a clown making a fool of myself...and I would be lying if it didn't hurt me low-key , it did and this time ..it hit me really hard that I don't think I was breathing through my nose ...I can feel myself breathing through my ear .
" One more threatening words and I might get you killed even before you get to the foster home ..so better watch it kid..."he said with an amused face, this demon of a human was enjoying my pain...he was no difference from them, just waited long enough to strike and it hurts so much.
I stood up from my chair took one look at him with tears threatening to rush out but i wasn't gonna give him the satisfaction he wanted, I immediately moved to the door and left the building immediately...hot tears were streaming down from my eyes ...I got into my car , no I couldn't hold it anymore, it hurts ,I cried till I was sure...I was now testing blood instead of the normal salty liquid of tears I was testing earlier....I wiped my face turned on the engine of my car and drove right back to the house .
If I really want to survive, I need a plan I need to make it fast cause..my mind tells me that the foster home are gonna come take me tonight or perhaps in the morning when I least expect them ...I really need a plan .
At least am grateful for one thing, that I was smart enough to invest most of the inheritance money most of which that devil of a lawyer isn't aware of, I went to the fridge and got out a table water to calm my nerves first cause my knees was practically shaking out of fear...I knew i threatened him but I couldn't even hurt a fly and his words were echoing right into my ears ." one more threatening words and I will kill you before the foster home gets to you"... yeah I heard him correctly and of all the things I know about him since I've known him is that he doesn't bluff when he talks , he means it .
I need to think of something he wouldn't think of, a place he wouldn't think of going to find me if I dare run away cause that's exactly what am gonna do right now run...there's no second option and am not trying that shit called " face your problem" nahh this one is way more than me and I need to act fast or I might be joining my parents soon, I kept walking to and fro from this end to the other end of my room and an idea clicked...I started parking my bag ...the little one I could lay my hands on ...I need to look normal, I took all the necessary documents that would be needed if I should survive wherever it is am going to and hid it ...at the back of the garden ..grab any clothes my hand could lay on and zipped my bag...then it was, I don't know, I think late already, it would be around ten or eleven pm ...I took one last glance at the house, am gonna abandon just because I was threatened by a lawyer.
It's pathetic, I know but if you were in my shoes ,you might actually commit suicide but that would be my next plan if this one doesn't work out ...I didn't bother to take my car ...I knew him well enough to know that he might secretly in plant a tracker on it. I walked out of my compound and I raced off ... nothing was chasing me I was just running ....I needed to free myself of all the thought I had...but me running got me into trouble this time...I ran for like thirty minutes non- stop and I halt a little to sip some water to continue,I didn't know where I was at but I didn't care as far as it ain't near that demon.
I continued running but I noticed a Swift movement something ran passed me immediately or a person I didn't know but my legs became limp and I froze in my steps, I paused my movement and looked back something was approaching me ...it was huge enough I didnt know whether it was a human shadow ...I took off immediately..
I ran and I swear my legs were no longer touching the floor ...I was floating, I was running with every single muscles I got but I was stupid not to watch where I was going to, I really felt like I already lost them ...and boom I ran into a dead end ...am stuck Jesus ....I looked around to find where to run to but I was already late ...He... no they, it was not only one person that cut up with me and my breathing hinched...I wasn't breathing properly, it felt like I was breathing in the wrong chemical like it wasn't oxygen any more ...I turned to have a clearer view of what I have gotten reckless self into...if I had just humbled my proud self and go to the God damn foster home ...I would still be breathing cause judging by the height of what was before me ...I don't stand a chance, I turned to them ...they were like four, i think and I stood there like an idiot that I was, I formed my hand into a fist at least to save myself the little pieces of dignity that I was sure we're already on the floor staring at me disgracing myself ....
" ha...his actually pulling a fist at us...he looks tough though, I like the energy...we could take this one back to boss ..he likes them fisty" the tough one among them said and they all started laughing...
they freakingly thought taking me to there boss was a joke ...since my first plan is reacked I needed to get this done for once and for all ...I ventured to the one next to me and threw a blow at him he didn't even move ...he gave me one last look and slapped the living daylight out of me though it was midnight, I think I saw the sun just now ...I hit the floor with a thump and winced ... before I could get my lazy ass up, he injected something into me ..and my body became limp ...my soul left my body ...my eyes became weak and slowly closed shut... the last word I could think of was ..." Am doomed...".
