After Louis came back down with the food, he freed my hands and legs so I can stretch out and eat.
The food tasted like heaven but only because I was starving. I haven't eaten in........ Actually I don't know. I look over to Louis, who is stuffing his face.
"How long was I out?"
He took a few seconds to chew and swallow before answering.
"About a day and a half. Rob seemed to hit you really hard on the head."
I playfully roll my eyes at that comment.
"Well no duh."
After we had finished eating and Louis came back from putting the dishes in the sink, we started to hang out and talk.
"So why are you in a gang since you aren't gang person-like?"
Louis looked down and sighed while shaking his head. Before he could say anything, I cut him off.
"Nevermind, its none of my business..."
His head shot up.
"No, no! I'll tell you. its just... its just a long story."
I let out a little laugh.
"Its not like I have anywhere to go."
He gave me a small smile.
"okay, okay, I'll tell you."
His face went serious again.
"I had a brother.... he was seven years older than me... he started to hang out with the wrong crowd.... He got into drugs... alcohol... you name it.... one day...."
Louis started tearing up.
"One day... he went out with his 'friends' and he.... he got killed... and since he was one of the strongest gang members..... so they thought of taking a family member of his face.... I was the only other boy.... so they kidnapped me.... and the only way to keep my family safe.... was to join the gang...."
