Life is an echo. What you send out- comes back. What you sow is what you reap. What you give is what you get. Maybe in some sort of twisted way, this was my punishment. My karma.

"Wha- what do you mean I killed his dad? Who the fuck is his dad??" I asked shocked

"You remember a few years ago when-"

"Just say his damn name!" I interrupted David

"William Bennett" he said and my face was shook.

Oh shit. I remember exactly how and why I killed him. But ain't no way HE was HIS father. The amount of pain I caused Xavier, his sister and his mother. He lost his father way too soon. I can't believe I'm the reason for this.

"Medusa don't overthink it aight? You did what the fuck you needed to do to get here Aight? If you ain't kill him, the mob wouldn't be as powerful as it is now. We would still be stuck on the streets struggling, you did what you had to do." Samuel assured me

"Nigga that's his fucking dad ?! Who cares about the power and money , I killed HIS DAD" I yelled

"See this is exactly what's gonna destroy the damn mob , how you gon say who cares bout the power and money for your lil boy friend? This what I mean! You putting HIM over the business and the damn mob" Samuel yelled at me

"He is right Medusa. Don't prioritise him over the damn mob aight? You killed a man just like how we kill men everyday. This shouldn't be deep. You did what you had to do to get here. You ain't know that was his dad. You ain't even know him back then. There's nothing you could've done. There's no difference from you killing his dad and you killing other people." David told me

"Man I'm going to sleep" I said as I walked out of the office and headed upstairs to my room.

I had to make a decision. Was I going to leave him? Or keep him in my life and continue building a strong relationship.

This was messed up. So so so messed up.
Was I supposed to be selfish?

I can never tell him I killed his father, that's for certain. I know it's extremely extremely selfish. But I wasn't ready to lose him. He treats me so good and fulfils me mentally. When I'm around him I feel relaxed and at peace. I can't let him go. I know what I'm doing is wrong but I don't to leave things. I just have to hope he never finds out.

NEXT DAY:

I know it's a selfish decision and I would have to live with the guilt but I loved Xavier too much to let go of him. If I told him the truth he would probably kill me.

I had a shower and got dressed. Priscilla gave me some breakfast and I was ready to go. I hopped in my black Benz and drove over to his house. Trying to forget yesterday.
