Warning this chapter has triggering content readers please be advised!!

Dino and kyro we're still outside in the porch. Dino was still upset about everything.

Dino: you're willing to fight for my best friend?!

Kyro: Yes actually! yes I am! You know I remember the first day I met him that day I will never forget. When I enter the room building and he told me to sit down.. I was thinking to myself this job looks kind of sketchy if a man wears sunglasses inside an office. As soon as he explained why and he took his glasses off I got to admit my heart skipped a beat or two... Then his smile, the way he talked to me and the way that he sounded when he said he needed me and he wanted me to be the one who took care of him.. do you know I'm going to be 100% honest with you I didn't think twice to take the job I didn't hesitate I just took it because I felt like I needed to be next to him.. the day that we kissed for the first time it wasn't like people say that you're the only ones in the world no nothing like that it was more like me being a straight man do not want to push him away I wanted to fall deeper and deeper into his grasp... I want him to love me I needed him to love me... So no I do not feel like we're the only ones in the world when we kiss I felt like he moved my world in a different direction.. and I was happy for once in my life all my worries went away.. and in my book that's a big deal..

Dino: Whoa! I never heard sky talk like that about Jason ever, this is the first time I seen Jason in someone else's eyes or more like someone else's heart.. there's reasons why I protect Jason he is my friend and I love him dearly but at first it was out of guilt..

Jason: what you mean out of guilt!!

Dino: Jason already knows the story because of that jerk sky he found out about it and told Jason our friendship almost ended because of that... But as much as Jason hated me then and never left aside I became his secretary his punching bag his loyal dog and then his best friend and I will never change it I work hard to get his trust back now that I finally got it I don't want that man to come in here ruin what he build... When you came to the office the first time that was the first time I seen him smile.. and I do have to apologize for coming at you to not get your feelings mixed up with work.. but I didn't want my best friend to get hurt again..

Kyro: I'm going to tell you what I told Jason.. I am not sky and I hate to be compared to him.. cuz I'm nothing like him and I will never hurt someone I love...

Dino: love! Wow!! Oh hey I have a question for you? have you ever heard Jason talk about Jay..

Kyro: no but I have heard him scream that name couple times when he's having nightmares..

Dino: I can't believe he still have those... Jay is Jason's older brother he passed away 10 years ago... The same accident that caused Jason's blindness is the same accident that caused his big brother's death.. I thought he will come up I used to see him cry a lot about it I have approached him when I was young many times to play basketball and distract him... Until I found out that my world was going to be upside down just like Jason's..

Kyro: what exactly you mean?

Dino: let me tell you a little backstory. my mom and dad were the happiest married couple... I honestly wanted a Love like there's when I got big.. yes they had problems yes they had arguments but they always overcome it.. until one day my mom started feeling ill.. she can't hardly stand on her two own feet. She was always in bed and at the time I didn't understand.. one day a private doctor came over and diagnosed her with breast cancer.. so she had to go for treatments twice a week the more she went the more she got sicker.. her hair started to fall.. she got skinnier she was under recognizable... Until the treatment stop working they was keeping her life but it was also killing her... And one night the night that my life became hell, my mom passed away.. and my dad's heart died with hers.. he started drinking every single night ,four bottles a night. My dad was a truck driver he loved his job even if it didn't make him Worthy.. he was lacking on his shovel up because of drinking.. then one night we got into an argument I told him I hated him that he become a drunk.. and obviously he didn't like that and he told me that he preferred me to be dead instead of my mom.. and out of anger I told him I wish he was dead that I hated him with all my heart.. and I ran upstairs 15 minutes later I heard him leave.. 4 hours later he came back with blood on his shirt, completely scared of it I asked him what happened...he couldn't even look at me in the eye all he kept saying is I killed him I killed him.. my father locked himself in the room for 2 days straight I heard on the news that the boy next door has gone blind and the older brother was killed in a car accident caused by a drunken driver... As soon as my heart dropped the doorbell rang they were from least officers in the front door.. I turned around my dad was coming down the stairs he gave his self in.. my dad was sentenced 7 years in jail but his heart couldn't take it... The day of the sentencing he had a heart attack died on the spot.. I couldn't see him I didn't want to.. I was alone so I thought... Jason found out about my parents but didn't know my dad was the one who killed his brother of course until I told him.. but back then when we were young his mom took me in from neighbors to best friends to like brothers.. I kept that secret with me for years out of guilt I promised myself that I will always protect that man.. Jason wasn't easy with his blindness he suffered a lot... But he was strong and he had me picking him up when he fell.. for years we were like brothers until that devil came along.. I accepted everything about Jason bisexuality his blindness I looked at him like a normal person.. and he saw that but the devil showed up... the devil names sky.. and somehow found out my secret and told him.. before we were like brothers now we're best friends and I don't think he will be able to trust me like how he trust me back then.. so I tell you this if you really love him fight as much as you can to get that man away from Jason..

Kyro: like I said I'm not going to go out without a fight!!
