In Midnight

S e c o n d

Armando Cervantes stayed hidden in the corner

Hidden in the sulking usual darkness just as he stayed his hole life.

Most bad people say it was their parents fault, or usually have a history that includes being abused by family. Which is horrible and shitty. Cruel and Mean just like the rest of the world.

Kids of broken families sometimes have no other option that to be broken and break people too. That's for where criminals, thieves, murders, pedophiles and rappers come from. Nothing can justify there acts but at least you can understand how fucked up they really are

Armando Cervantes was no different, he didn't kill anyone or degrade a innocent girl like that. He steels things, and he isn't a modern Robin Hood. He wouldn't go as far to kill someone but would steel from an old lady without looking back.

Being the third youngest kid in a family of eight boys didn't make him stand out. And having big brothers isn't a dream either. Not that he blames it on them, they passed trough all the crap he passed too.

In a family where the father is a illegal drug dealer, and the mother is a 30-year-old alcoholic about to give birth, having seven brothers doesn't help them to notice you and care about you.

No matter if you came up with bruises and bleeding noses

No matter if you came up crying and beaten up

No matter if you came up stoned, drunk and with broken ribs.

No matter if you didn't came up at all.

With 17 years and leaving on Nuevo León, where you can almost touch USA, he decided to scape and break free. It wasn't easy, but he didn't have the money or the papers for a passport and what better than passing the frontier illegally.

For a lot of people that river and a light pointing at them was the last they saw. For Armando wasn't.

Now, just three years later he was about to steal his first Jewellery. Gold & Stone, Jewellery Store just about to bump in the lady he wasn't expecting to see again since that day at the coffee store.
