Python

C H A P T E R 17

"Madds I need you to do something for me." I said over the phone.

"Yeah ? What is it."

"Find out who Kenny's parents were and why I killed them."

"Oh my gosh !!" She said. "You killed his parents ? That's why he hates Python so much.. but why did you kill them ?"

I rolled my eyes even though she couldn't see me. "I asked you to find out for a reason, because I don't know. How long will it take ?"

"Give me ten minutes." She said as I heard shuffling in the background. Maddie was good at what she does and I had no doubt she'd get me the information. I didn't think it would be this fast.

"Man Lu that situation is messed up." She said as I heard a beeping noise and keyboard typing. "You're basically sleeping with the guy and you killed his parents, don't you feel guilty ?"

Well now I do. I haven't even thought like that before she mentioned it. It didn't even cross my mind like that. I'm sleeping with a guy whose parents I killed, a guy who despises me, a guy whose only purpose in life is to destroy me. Although he doesn't know that it's me, I can't help but feel guilty now. He hates the real me. He hates Blue Cooper- the Python. That's who I am, that's the real me, not this made up personality of Blue Moreno.

How am I still able to look at him in the eyes, let alone sleep with him ?I guess when you've mastered the art of lying and manipulation your whole life, your conscience just dies. It becomes easier for you to lie, it becomes easier for you to manipulate and betray.

I can't afford to feel guilty. I can't afford to feel anything. I just need to get the flash drive and get out of here, easy.

"Found them." Maddie said as the beeping stopped. "Caitlin Brown and Benjamin Brown, both died at forty years. They were both doctors and had one child called Ke-"

"Maddie I already know that, save me their life story." I interrupted her. "I need to know why I killed them, that's all."

"Wow you're so mean." She said. "Anyways you killed them because they killed innocent sick children."

"What do you mean they killed innocent sick kids ?" I asked confused.

"Caitlin was a Pediatrician, you know doctor for kids ?"

"Maddie I know what a fucking pediatrician is, get to the point." I said.

"Wow who is this mean bitch and what have you done to my best friend ?" She said. She was doing this on purpose to irritate me and it was working. I was a minute away from bursting with anger.

"Anyways as I was saying. They worked in a public hospital. They knew very well that people in public hospitals couldn't afford serious major surgeries so they basically sold their organs to the rich and left the poor to die. They worked at the black market to sell kidneys, hearts, bone marrows, brains and other organs to rich people. A child would come to the hospital with a flu but would leave dead because Caitlin and Ben sold their kidney to a rich spoiled brat who ruined their kidney by smoking and drinking. They literally killed disadvantaged and unprivileged kids so that some big shot old billionaire could live longer. They specifically targeted children because their organs were much healthier and still fresh. They killed over two hundred kids."

Wow.. I don't even know what to say. How could people be so cruel ? Kids ? How could someone even think of harming a child. I'm in a gang so I'm not one to judge because we do a lot of bad thing. But we'd never kill innocent people, let alone kids. There so many ways to make money and they chose to kill poor children. For what? So that the rich could live longer? For a couple of bucks?
