DOMINICK © [ENGLISH EDITION]

Chapter thirty-eight

Steven

"I guess... The decoration will come blue with black, right?" I ask the decoration manager while I take notes of what he is telling me, "okay, noted. Will you be here tomorrow? Everything is correct. I'll wait for you.

I hang up the call and leave the agenda on the shelves of the room. I heard the doorbell and for a moment I hesitated to go but, I ended up going.

"Hello?" I open the door and when I don't see anyone, it's strange to me. I look everywhere before closing the door again, but the package below stops me.

What will it be?

I pick it up from the floor and look at it for a moment, I shake it to check if there is something there and conventionally there is something.

I destroy its packaging and see the inside: it's an SD card.

What the hell does this mean? Who sent it?

Then a piece of paper falls to the floor. Even with doubts I lift the paper and open it to read what it has:

"With that you pay what you owe me"

What's going on here?

I'm going to get my phone and insert the SD card. I wait while you read all its content; until, it concludes.

"Let's see..." I go to 'Gallery' of the mobile and the videos that are there begin to appear: I select one and give Play.

In the video I saw something I didn't expect: It was Dominick in my car with a strange man having sex in the back. Both enjoy it, both are in the highest pleasure...

Dominick did it. They've screwed up my life again.

Without seeing a second more, I throw the cell phone hard against the wall and it is shot to pieces everywhere.

"SHIT!!" I turn around and strike a blow against the mirror next to the shelf, "SHIT, SHIT!" My hand bleeds now, it suffers just like my heart does. It feels horrible... and I wouldn't believe I would feel it again. Not now, not now that I was happy.

Erik

My name is Erik. I'm 16. I have an ugly past... of which I am ashamed and I prefer not to talk to you about it now. The house was very quiet a long time ago, but Dominick has arrived and has loaded it with life and that... it's magnificent. And only now do I know his brother, if that's the way things go I want to have a chance with him. What if he's like the rich man's brother? It looks like it is. It must be.

I have arrived, I have achieved it. I have followed Adam, to tell the truth, I like him, I like him, his way of being and above all, his great resemblance to Dominick.

He has arrived alone, I have followed him for a long time. I'm in a hurry to avoid losing it and I'll call you:

"Hey! Wait a minute, he doesn't listen to me and then I get tense, Dominick! He stops and looks everywhere, I rub his hand so that he can see me and so he does, a smile appears on my face while in his there is only confusion and doubts.

"What did you say?" he asks me and when he saw me up close, he identified me, "What are you doing here?" he asks something curious.

"Well, I know you've gone to Dad's house to hear from your brother... I can answer all your questions... If you wish.

He looks at me very doubtful. First of all, it can be said that he is afraid.

"Well, follow me.

"Perfect..."

Years before...

I find myself observing the ceiling of the house, here, from the bed, lonely, bored, missing the person I love and so far I can't tell anyone else what I have locked up and it doesn't allow me to sleep or be calm.
