CHAPTER 2

Adriana was about to have heart failure. Her heart was beating out of her chest. He was going to kill her... Oh my god. She knew... The minute she saw him at the house she knew he meant to hurt her.

He parked the car and took off his seat belt turning his body to face her. She was shaking. "I... What?" She asked nervously. This was fucked up.

"Come on Adriana, why'd you call the cops?"

"I didn't... When?"

"Look, I'm giving you a chance to make this okay..."

"I... I thought you hurt Jerry. They came to question me, I never called them. I promise." She admitted.

"Okay, and well... Did you know that I brought the bar off him?" She shook her head.

"No..."

"And did you not see him look okay to you? That night?"

"He was fine..." She nodded quickly.

"They got nothing Adriana, they found nothing, they have no leads..."

"I... Andy, I told them that I saw Jerry have a drink. I said he left before you guys. The truth. I swear." She was freaking out.

Only her fucking luck to end up cleaning his parent's house...

Adriana didn't know what to do. She was actually petrified at this point.

"Listen carefully to me Adriana... Very carefully, just so you there are no mistakes... No misunderstandings..." She swallowed hard. "My father, my mother, my brothers... Will kill you first and ask questions later... Okay? So... Out of the goodness of my heart I will spare you..."

"Spare me? I don't know anything. Please..." She was actually going to cry now.

"Just in case you want to call the police now... Just a precaution to take by telling you how things will go. I know you had nothing to do with it, and I would rather you never mentioned the bar to my parents. Mother likes how you work so you do your thing and keep everything else out of the equation. Okay?" She nodded her head. Was that a threat? She wasn't going to say anything... She didn't have a death wish.

She was so relieved when he started the car. She actually believed he was going to end her life.

He drove her to that run down shack that her mother lived in with her husband. "I won't be long." She said getting out of the car. Andy followed her out. "It's fine. I... I'll only be a minute." She didn't want him to come down and see this. She wasn't proud of her address that was for sure. Inside was not any better. Still, Andy walked with her to the front door. She didn't have the keys so she had to knock and wait.

Carlos opened the door and looked very shocked when he saw Andy. "What the fuck is this?" He asked her. Adriana swallowed hard.

"Carlos, this is Andy..."

"Andy?"

"Where's mum?" She asked looking around.

"Fay! Fay come and see what your daughter has brought home!" Carlos was such a wanker.

Her mother came out stoned off her head. "Ah, finally my baby is ready to explore the world..." She said smiling at Andy.

"This here is Andy... He's fucking your little girl..." Carlos was so crude. Adriana wasn't going to stand there and hear this.

She looked at Andy now. "I'm going to pack." She said before leaving him standing there.

"Done?" He asked when she walked out and returned to the living room.
