I knew it Sapnap knew it something was up with Karl for the short day I knew him he was giggly chatty always telling funny stories or cracking jokes

But he was dead silent stuck in thoughts I could see tears lying in the crooks of his eyes threatening to fall "hey Karl don't fucking listen to that idiot you killed him on accident" I already knew about Karl's story who doesn't?

I think if you were to ask someone in the city who Karl Jacobs is they most likely will answer saying something like 'that's the kid that killed his bully right?' "It isn't that, I don't feel sorry for killing him it's just-" he sniffled a little and wiped at his eyes "when he mentioned my parents I was a fifteen-year-old kid again I miss them but they probably hate me"

I looked at him I never really had a family my parents put me up for adoption at a young age my grandmother raised me until I was about fourteen then she sadly passed away I was taken in by the nearby church and for about two years sister Amena Johnson took care of me I remember her being a short African American woman with big curly hair she was the most Christian women you can meet but also super supportive

In June she would douse the town church in rainbow flags and led the gospel quire wearing a rainbow cardigan that was my favorite time of the year in the church I would sit in the nunnery listening to them practice then I met him...

At first, he was kind, telling stories about his son but when we started dating he completely changed he was alcoholic and abusive I couldn't do anything about it cuss he was a well-liked hero in the community he made me take on weird jobs and so I spiraled in the world of drugs and gambling

One day I came home and he was gone those few months were probably the most peaceful I had ever been I had just one a big gamble and I was set inside the apartment but of course, good things don't last forever he came back after four months being gone he wouldn't tell me where he went

He apologized so sincerely it was like when I had just met him again he was sweet and took me out on fun dates with his son I could feel myself slowly fall in love again

Yeah stupid of me one night I was asleep I could feel a blade cut into my cheek when I opened my eyes Schlatt was standing over me with a blade in his hand "now your mine forever"

I don't know how but at the moment the gesture seemed so sweet and loving was it the adrenaline or just the fact it was 3 AM but I didn't get up and run I just smiled and pulled him closer for a kiss thinking about that moment makes me want to throw up... and after that at something changed not only did he start to abuse me again he also took his anger out on his son yelling and screaming at the fifteen-year-old he didn't get the chance tog et physical on him I packed my bags took his child and left him in an alley

I know it sounds cruel but I didn't have anyone to take care of him so I just left him there I turned and ran I saw his black corvet car follow me as I ran so I sprinted into the forest and well then you know what happened next

"Quackity"... a hand flung in front of my eyes "what a depressed bunch of bullshit is this," Sapnap said snapping his fingers in front of my head "uh sorry" Sapnap sighed "you two should go talk," the raven-haired hero said to me and Karl

"With who?" Karl said as Sapnap put his head in his hand "Karl even though you don't want to you gotta visit your parents and Quackity I have heard little parts of your childhood go visit that fucking churchman" I sighed as Karl went silent again

The three dropped us off in front of the cottage "fine I'll do it but only if you guys come with me" Karl said as he forced the cottage door open I was silent for all those years I didn't visit a single time

"I'll go to" I decided dear Lord what was that gonna be awkward we walked inside the plant overtook cottage wind chimes making soft melodies as a breeze ran through the building

Karl walked over to the old brown leather couch and flopped down on it I went to sit at the old picnic table "is it okay if we don't go today? Maybe I don't know... soon just not today or tomorrow?" Karl said his face planted on the couch I felt terrible and needed to do something to get the feeling off my mind

Who wants to play blackjack?" I said to the three Sapnap just got up and joined me behind the table Karl also got up "you gotta teach me how to play though," He said joining at the table I took out my deck of cards and shuffled it taking out the jokers and the jack of spades still shuffling I started to explain

"Okay so the game is pretty easy to forget about the jokers and the blackjack of spades they aren't in the game we all are gonna get a pair of 16 cards to let's say in the cards you have a pair of a heart nine and a diamond nine you can lay it and then it's the next person's turn when everyone has laid a pair your gonna start by doing the same as previous round but after you laid a pair your gonna take a card from the player left of you"

"If you can make a pair with that card you lay it and then it's the next person's turn now the blackjack of clubs doesn't have a pair since the other blackjack has been taken out so the person left with the blackjack loses"

I put the stack of cards on the table and split them into three equal piles I gave myself two extra cards so I could lay them on the side "okay so dividing fifty cards under three people is impossible so Imma lay this pair of red aces to the side". Karl nodded he looked like he had an idea what was going on but at the same time no idea

We started playing Sapnap played a spade 3 and a club 3 he looked at me as I picked at my cards I played a heart 7 and a diamond 7 I smiled at Karl who had trouble organizing his cards he after a while he played a spade queen and club queen

It was Sapnap's turn again he played a jack hearts and a jack diamonds I put my stack of cards towards him for him to grab I didn't have the black Jack so I didn't care about what he grabbed

I looked in my cards and played a spade 7 and club 7 Karl turned to me with his cards in front of his face I grabbed at a random card when I took a look it was the blackjack I send a quick glare towards Karl who just smiled

He played a heart two and diamond two we played for a while Sapnap ended up taking the blackjack from me and losing
