Your Father was woken up by a phone call, he almost sluggishly stretched his arm to the phone and picked it up. He weakly tapped the awnser icon on his phone and his eyes widened like he had seen a ghost. He immediately jumped into action as he started to sneak around the house, tip towing trying and trying his hardest not to make a sound. He grabbed multiple white coloured pouches from around the house and stuffed them all into a duffel bag and slid it under a floorboard. He carefully and fearfully climbed back into his bed to look at his wife's melanin beauty as she slept. He felt pain looking at her so he turned away as he sunk back into his soft bed and fell back into a guilty sleep. Y/N woke up to the annoying and agitating sound of their alarm clock and slammed it. They lifted their heavy self off of his bed and onto his feet to walk to the bathroom and brushed their teeth before they showered and dried off. They put on their school uniform and got ready to head to their first ever year 11 class. They sat down as they had maths first period.
"This is so long alie" whispered your closest friend Yao
(His full name is Yaola but you just call him Yao for short)
"We're in the endgame dude we need this or else we're gonna fail our GCS-"
"Have you got something to share with the class Y/N?" Said the class teacher
"No we were talking about the work miss"
You responded
"Good, because this work will be completed. And weather it's in your time or mine doesn't bother me"
Ensured the Class Teacher
"Yes miss" you said as you carried on doing your work in silence
The day goes on fast and before you know it it's 3:00 and you're leaving that hell hole. You walk out of school with Yao
"So, You coming Eastford with us after school?" Said Yao
"No I can't, my dad says he wants to speak to me and I have to come home as quick as possible" You responded
"Damn, tell him I said hi though."
"Hundred Percent" You said as you spudded him and headed for the 95 bus. You sat on that bus listening to calming music which relaxed you on the bus. Before you knew it was your stop. You got up and off of the bus and walked quickly to your house. You open the door and you hear your mom and dad shouting at eachother
"You can't just leave like this!" Your mother yelled
"I have to to protect-"
"I DON'T NEED YOUR DAMN PROTECTION CHRISTOPHER I DON'T NEED IT"
Interrupted your mother
"Well I'm not asking Amelia. I'd rather you alive and angry at me than dead"
Your father said
Silence fell as they began to notice you were present. You just stared into their eyes with shock
"You're leaving?" You'd say
Amelia would just walk upstairs with tears in her eyes
"Sit down kid" Christopher said
Y/N sat down without hesitation
"As you grow up, you will realise that some things are more powerful than love. I've been mixed up in some terrible terrible things and from now on I'm not going to be able to see you it's for your own good."
"How are you going to tell me what my own good is. you aren't even gonna be here to know so what's the point" you replied
"I understand you're angry but you'll understand. And don't be like me, do good Y/N. Make sure you're doing well at school so you can make a difference and get us out of here. You're a good kid, do something with that"
He gave you a comforting stare but that didn't fase you. You immediately got up and off of the couch and took a long walk upstairs and into your room. You sat there for a while on your phone before hearing the door unlock,open,close and lock. You went to check on your mother but she was in a deep and sad sleep so you went to bed and fell asleep again. The next day, You opened your eyes but didn't move as it was a Saturday. You sluggishly stretched for you phone and check it, You received a message from an anonymous number. The message read
"It's your father, come alone and don't tell anyone where you're going"
His father sent the location of where he was heading to. After seeing this you sprung into action, you did a short morning routine and snuck out of the house. You walked as fast as you could when you noticed 4 men twice your size following you, you pick up the pace a bit and they pick up the pace a bit. You start jogging and they start jogging. You start running and now they are running chasing after you. As you're running you try to loose them through an alleyway but you imminently fail. They knock you iPhone out of your hand and you walk backwards into a wall.
"As long as you tell us where your father is, you'll get home ok. If not, You won't be getting home at all bruv" The road man says
"Who?" You reply
The main roadman picks you up and throws you into a wall
"Where is he?" He said
"I don't know who you're talking about" you said
"I didn't wanna have to do this you man, but rush him" Said the main road man
All of them punch, kicked and stomped you. They took your phone and found the location of your father and all ran off with your phone quickly. You layed there on the ground in the middle of the alleyway. Every single muscle and bone in your body was screaming when you tried to move so you just layed there. You tried to get up again but it just made things worse. Your eyelids became heavy as you fell lost conscienceness on the cold hard concrete.
You wake up in a hospital with your mother sleeping on a chair next to you. Nah Dried tears on her face, you notice a stab wound on your torso and a newspaper in your mothers hands. It read:
"CHRISTOPHER (Y/SN) PRONOUNCED DEAD AFTER MULTIPLE STAB WOUNDS FOUND IN HIS BODY"
Your eyes widened knowing it was all your fault as you layed in that hospital bed. Helpless.
