Mistake #1

9| Benji & the man in black

Warning this is a really short chapter (419 words)

I wake up in a cold dark room tied to a metal pole in the middle of the room.
I look around and see the silhouettes of two other people tied to poles.
Benji,

Dad.
I try to scream for them but a cloth is tied around my mouth, I began to slam my foot against the hard concrete ground to see if they are awake too. It hurts, a lot, but I continue to ram the concrete with my foot so desperately wanting to hear their voices. I see Benji's little head move up and look at me, I start struggling against the ropes and crying.

A tall man in all black clothing enters the room from a door just in front of me and shouts "WHAT IS WITH ALL THE RACKET?!"
His voice echoes through the room as he stomps toward me and wickedly smiles.
" you shouldn't leave your poor defenceless brother alone while you go party"
How did he know where I was?
" I'm sure your dad wouldn't approve"

Dad.
He is pale and a beard has started to grow, showing that he has been here for quite some time.
He looks weak.

The man slowly turns his head back to me. "You didn't stop to wonder where your dad was for the past three and a half weeks? You didn't care?" He accused.
He evilly smiles at me and starts pacing in circles around me, his cracked hands clamped behind his back.
"See your dad here owed me money

ALOT of money

And I fully intend to get it" he stops pacing in front of my dad
"One way" he kicks dad in the stomach
"Or another" and he punches dads head against the pole.

Dads neck goes limp and his head rest on his shoulders. I know he is knocked out.
Blood starts dripping down his arms from his head and I start crying even more, squirming and trying to pull against the ropes.

I hear Benji sob and start sliding his back down the pole until he is sitting on the cold cement, his head in his knees.
I stop struggling and go limp. Just standing there and crying.

"W-what do y-you mean-n he o-owed you mo-money?" I choke out.
"What? You don't know?" The man smiles sickly "your dad is a

Drug dealer"

the shocked and disappointed look on my face makes him laugh; a creepy, sick laugh.
