PART ONE — TRIALS

It was clear who the texts were from.

"You didn't have to do all that, Logan. You're hurting me even more. You shouldn't have taken their lives. You're a monster, it's true."

You shouldn't have sent them to rob me. You shouldn't have totaled the truck. You shouldn't have caused a ruckus.

How fucking ludicrous.

"I broke down and vented to Fabián, he assisted me with retribution, sure it was an awful route, but I wanted us to be more. I wanted us to date, to flourish. I hated being turned down all the time."

"I don't even know how to feel now. I'm overwhelmed with hatred and love. I was taken in for questioning, I don't know who else saw, but I didn't snitch, I could've, but I didn't. You have dirt on me too and we'd both fall down. I'll miss Fabián and I'll miss us before the bullshit. I'm selling the house and leaving Florida."

I left the texts on read.

Tahiri made me bacon and waffles. I had a difficult time consuming.

"It's no rush." Tahiri said, watching me. "You and I have all the time in the world."

Her home wasn't with me, but I didn't want her to return there, I needed her...

"...don't leave me." I said. "You want me to slumber here?"

"Yes."

"I don't have clothes."

"You can wear mine."

"And who'll watch Harlee?"

I was silent.

"...I'll leave later when it's dark and come back tomorrow." Tahiri said.

"Ok." I conceded. "I'll have to order some food." Tahiri used her cell. "I can't starve in here, no offense."

Tahiri and I cuddled on the couch and watched a film. I showered with her and lent her a shirt and some shorts, she looked so cute.

Tahiri tucked me into bed, I felt like a child, she had mother vibes radiating.

"You should live here." I told her. "You suit this house." Tahiri smiled. "You and I aren't even dating."

"Then, let's date." I said.

I've come to notice life is far more valuable than it seems. You live once and that's it. You never have that back.

Tahiri observed me.

"I mean, it's about time, isn't it?" I asked. "You're what I need, mamas. I mean that."

"I'm flattered, I am." Tahiri said.

"But?"

"I concur." Tahiri beamed. I was astounded, she kissed me. "You're mine now."

Oh-ho-ho.

"I'll need another kiss." I held her cheeks and kissed her hard.

I felt bliss amidst the torment.

It was dawn, the birds were tweeting, the sun was rising, and I was still slumbering.

WHAM! A loud noise awakened me.

I looked around and mamas wasn't beside me, that sound must've been her leaving.

The bedroom door kicked in...

...and three officers surrounded me with firearms. "Don't move!" An officer shouted.

I didn't, I was stiff like a board. I couldn't even discern what was occurring, I was still in slumber mode and felt confused as hell.

"Logan Moore." He began. "You are under arrest for the murder of Fabián Smith and Jason Bourne."

I was handcuffed.
