#Book 2 Chapter 21
I lightly let my head hit the wall out of frustration repeatedly.
What should I do…?
” Maître?” My eyes narrowed the moment someone called to me.
” Get out!” His eyes widened, and he immediately left.
Realization hit me.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
I was shocked. Now I’m not….
I tightly clenched my fists and started to grab any stuff my hand would find and threw them across the room.
” Nass,” I punched the wall.
Not caring about the pain my bleeding fists is making me…
I’m used to it…
My mind went back to the scene where the men were kicking her.
I pressed my forehead against the wall while I’m trying to grip it though impossible.
The blood that’s dripping on her thighs.
I knelt down.
She’s hurt. Our baby is hurt…
Her cries.
My hands reached my chest once again.
” Baby… I’m sorry,” and after saying that, I felt my tears.
” H-ha” suddenly, I had difficulty breathing.
” N-Nass” I covered my mouth, hoping to muffle out my curses.
I never cried like this since my mom died until now.
I didn’t even bother wiping the tears from my eyes, even if it was already making my vision blurry.
All I can see is her…
” I-I can’t” I sniffed and stood up like a drunk man due to the weakness.
But then, I felt pain in my chest, so I sat back down.
I wept out loud… I can’t stop. I don’t care if my men would hear me anymore.
I covered my face with my hands.
Then I raised my knees to my chest and tried to bury my face there.
” I-I can’t. No…”
I’m like a child.
All of my emotions from the past month and years are now overwhelming me.
All of the frustrations, sadness, anger, my cries are pouring everything that’s been contained altogether.
” What the hell, Kei!?” I looked at the one who called me.
Zeke.
Along with our other friends and my very own Dad.
My crying got louder.
” K-Kei, what happened?” I heard Katie asked.
I shook my head repeatedly.
” I can’t lose her.”
” Kei…” Then I heard Dad’s voice.
I saw him walk closer to me.
” What the f*ck happened that you have to destroy everything that your mother bought for this house?!” His voice is 1/4 concerned and 3/4 angry.
I wept even harder as I remembered all of the stuff in this house are all of Mom’s precious belongings.
” I-I-I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to destroy everything, Dad. I just can’t…” I swallowed hard and continued on whimpering.
My dad’s expression softened. Then he holds both of my shoulders.
” What happened, son?” I closed my eyes and gazed up at him.
” I can’t lose her again… I can’t lose them. Both of them,” I said in a shaky voice.
” Oh, Kei…” My father wrapped his arms around me, and I can’t do anything but just lean into his embrace.
” Nass”
Zeke’s POV
Nervousness ultimately ran through my system the moment I saw the lifeless bodies of these men lying on the sand as we arrived at the island. What happened?
” Get out!” Hearing Kei screaming, the ten of us mafia members glanced at each other in unison along with Tito Andre.
I sprinted towards the house, and that’s where I saw broken things everywhere, to which I remember Tita Karina used to organize herself a long time ago.
I looked at the man crying like a child inside.
” What the hell, Kei!?” He gazed up at me and cried even louder.
Sh8t.
Something serious happened…
Katie asked Kei what’s the matter, but he didn’t respond.
Tito Andre walked closer to his son.
Uh-oh…
If there is someone who will be mad for all these broken stuff, that would be Tito Andre.
” ” I-I-I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to destroy everything, Dad. I just can’t…” I looked at Kei, concerned.
He’s crying so much. Not even caring that lots of people are looking at him. I also roamed my eyes around while he repeatedly kept muttering the words, “I can’t.”
That’s when realization hit me.
My eyes widened, and I started looking for Nass in the living room when in fact, she isn’t here in the first place.
And Kei repeatedly saying, “I can’t lose her again, I can’t lose them,” I think we all know what just gotten into him.
Nass is in danger…
My expression stiffened, and so does my other companions.
“They caught Nass. And it’s my f—ing fault” I took a deep breath, controlling my anger before taking a step closer to Keian.
Tito Andre scooted away from him a little to give us space.
” Don’t blame yourself for that, Kei. Whoever took her away must pay for what he just did.” He lets out a bitter smile at me.
” No. It’s really my fault” his eyes are red, his face is wet with tears.
Then I felt Laiza come closer to him as well.
” You’re just shocked Kei, go rest first…”
” No! I can’t rest if I know that Nass is in enemy’s hands!” He blurted out.
” Kuya Kei… Your tv has a camera? And it looks like it’s hacked?” Clara said out of nowhere while walking closer to the television.
” Yeah, tell me something I don’t know” I stand as I observe the television.
My eyes narrowed when I noticed something.
I grabbed that little piece that seems to be a chip that comes along with a secret camera.
Clara and I looked at each other, and from the looks of it, she could already tell what I wanted her to do.
I handed her the chip while she ultimately brings out her mini-computer.
Tito Andre went over to me while observing the whole house.
” Check every corner, room, and walls. See if any more nano-chips or cameras are lurking in the corners,” he said in a commanding voice.
The eight of us looked at each other, except for Clara, who’s got her head focused on her laptop.
” Yes, sir!”
