My Retribution

Part 31

Kirk's POV

After torturing Richie, I went near Freen. Her body suddenly went weak that caused her to sit, She looked really tired. I carried her in bridal style and put her inside my car. I kissed her forehead which caused her to smile I gave her my coat to mask his bloody smell. I am beside her and gave her water to drink which she did.

Freen: (exhausted) Never thought that torturing someone would be this tiring.

Kirk: (laughing) You literally take your time with him. If I'm not mistaken you tortured him for more than 10 hours.

I saw her giggle a little and let out a yawn as she closed her eyes. She fell asleep. "She looks so innocent, like she didn't just torture the shit out of Richie" I drove to the mansion and woke her up. I want to carry her to her room but the smell of blood is too strong to ignore. She will hate me if I let her lay on her bed without showering. She hates that.

I am waking her up but she's in a deep sleep. I shook her shoulder a little bit but she just groaned. I carried her again in bridal style to at least let her lay comfortably on the sofa. I will let her sleep for an hour then I'll wake her up again.

Becky's POV
Today is Saturday and I'm at home. As usual, I'm alone in this house. I walked to our living room and saw our family picture. "I miss my mom so much". I hate my Dad so much that I don't fucking care where he is, or what his up to. Richie on the other hand became my guardian after mom died. He is the Armstrong successor. The golden child if you ask me. During his teen years, Dad started training him. He often takes Richie with him on business trips, meetings and deals. Richie didn't have a life of his own. He was always dictated.

Richie's dream is to be a kick boxer, a fighter. Dad is not happy with that. He said that it's a disgusting, lame and poor decision to choose kickboxing. Dad immediately cut Richie's hobby and soon he became busy like that. He doesn't forget to check me from time to time though.

Whenever Richie finds time to spend it with me, I tend to ask him to teach me to defend myself. He just taught me the basics, enough to get away when in trouble. Him fighting and me cheering for him was our bonding. Dad knew about it so to prevent us from having a good time. He enrolled Richie to our school. He wanted Richie to be occupied, that he wanted him to have at least 3 diplomas. That's why even if Richie turned 29 he is still attending school. Well It was no big deal. Richie is enrolled in our own school so he doesn't have to pay for anything. Dad will just give him his schedule. Richie didn't even pick his course, Dad picked it for him.

This year will be special though since we will both graduate from different schools. I don't want to learn in our own school because I have no Freedom there. Richie made a way for me to stay away from Dad. He took every responsibility and even made a deal from Dad that he will do everything just let me live my life the way I want it too. He did everything in his power for me to have a normal and happy life. I've been missing him lately and I don't know why thinking of him made me nervous.

Richie is the kindest man I know. He took care of me and stayed beside me during my darkest time. He tried to be the Father and the Mother that I lost when Mom died. Even if I lost both my parents that day it's okay, because Richie is with me. "Yeah, my Dad is fucking dead to me" Richie makes sure I am fine, healthy and happy. He promised that after our graduation he will host a fight for us. Dad won't know about it. He even promised that we can have a spar and he will go easy on me. I'm so looking forward to that."I will invite Freen when that happens. I want Freen to meet my brother. I also want my brother to meet one of the most precious people in my life aside from him" It would be nice to be with the people I love and cherish the most.

Speaking of my Teerak. I'm missing her so much too. She didn't message me or anything the last conversation we had was yesterday morning. When she sent her driver to pick me up. I heard my phone ring and thought it was Freen. I was so dissapointed to see that it's an unknown number. I answered the call and found out that my brother is in the hospital. I was shocked, worried and in panic. I immediately picked up my purse. I called our driver to send me to the hospital.

I reached the hospital and they told me my brother is in critical condition and he is in surgery. I felt weak and I cried. "Stop it Becky, Richie needs you right now" I saw the nurse coming so I pulled myself together.

Nurse: May I know how you are related to the patient?

Becky: (preventing herself from crying) I'm his younger sister. Please. How is he? Can I see him?

Nurse: The patient received severe damages on his body. Almost all his bones are broken. I doubt if he can move both his hands and feet. I suggest you communicate with the police. This is something serious and severe. Do you have a parent or guardian. Please call them.

Upon hearing that I kneel and cried myself. The nurse came to me and comforted me. She let me cry out my frustrations. I compose myself and talk to the Nurse.

Rebecca: (sobbing) Can I see him? Please.

Nurse: Ms. Armstrong, he is still in surgery. I suggest that you call your guardian or someone who can assist you before entering the patient's room. You're gonna need all the support and prayers you can get.

The first person who first come mind is Freen. I called her number but she's not answering. That added to my frustrations. "Please, I need you Teerak" I called my useless Father and he is not responding also. I want to throw my phone when suddenly it rang. I saw my Teerak's name so I answered the call.

Freen: How are you darling? Sorry I just woke up from a nap and just finished showering.

I'm crying so hard and didn't utter a word.

Freen: (worried) Are you hurt teerak? Please speak to me darling.

I want to speak but I'm sobbing so much that I can't utter a word.

Freen: I'm on my way Teerak. Just send me your location. I'm on my way. I want to make sure you're okay.

My eyes are blurry since heavy tears are flowing down. I manage to send Freen my location since I have to restrain myself from bursting. I feel like I'm about to pass out but I can't. I tried reaching Dad again but he's not answering "Fucking useless human being"

A few minutes later and I saw Freen. I hugged her as soon as she reached me and as soon as she wrapped me in her arms I let go of every tears, frustration and worry. I burst everything that I'm trying to hold since I got to the hospital. She comforted me and hugged me tightly. I don't know how long we stayed like that. She cupped my face and kissed my forehead, my left eye, my right eye, my nose and finally my lips.

Freen: (worried) Do you feel better?

I nod at her in response and hugged her again.

Freen: (smiling) Come, Let's eat first.

Becky: (teary eyed) My brother

Freen: (poker face) You're brother will live I'm sure, besides he is still in surgery. You need to eat. Promise, we will come back as soon as we are done.

Becky: I need to call Dad. He wasn't answering. He has to be here.

Freen: (cold voice) Fine. Give me his phone and I'll handle it. (sigh) I'll help you Teerak just, just, please let me take care of you.

I nodded and gave her a warm smile. She kissed me on the lips and held my waist as we went out of the hospital. As soon as we reach her car. I kissed her passionately. I scanned her beautiful face and saw in her eyes and face that she's tired and yet she's here with me.

Becky: Thank you so much Teerak. I love you.
