Romeo Is Bleeding

20

Romeo's dad sat back and looked at my. He face holding no emotions.
"You see Nova... I looked you up."
"What do you mean?" I questioned.
He laughed. "You honestly think I'm going to allow my son to date his enemy's sister. Don't be stupid."
"I'm not stupid."
"And you love my son?"
"Yes." I said without thinking.
"Lies." He banged his hand on the table.
I felt tears form in my eyes. How could he so easily deny my love for Romeo.
"How much can you know bout love? How much can you love your son?"
"¿Que?"
"I mean you abandoned to live with his nonexistent mother." Before I knew it a slap was felt across my face.
"Eres una estupida. ¿Cómo te atreves a hablar sobre asuntos que no te conciernen?" (You are stupid. How dare you talk about matters that do not concern you )He spat.
"I don't appreciate you hitting me." I said calmly. He smoked his cigar smirking at me.
"Seems I have lost my temper. I apologize. My son is a sensitive topic."
"Sure it is." I don't believe him. Romeo always makes it seem like he's a pawn in his father sick games.
"Sir your food has arrived." The waiter said.
"It can wait I'm not done yet!" He yelled. "My son says he loves you. But he's s stupid boy."
"I wish you wouldn't speak that way of your son."
"And why is that? What has been so great bout my son?"
"He saved me. Over and over again. Even when I told him to stop."
He laughed. "That sounds like stupidity to me."
"Sounds like love to me. He stayed with me throughout everything I've been through. He's a good man. He's mine." We we're silent looking at each other.
"Send for my son." Antonio said breaking the silence.
Within three minutes Romeo walked in the room. Sitting next to me he grabbed my hand kissing it.
"I like this one RoRo." He's father said smiling.
Antonio's (Romeo's dad) POV
"Dinner with Romeo's girlfriend was very... interesting. I didn't expect the gringa to be so smart mouthed." I said conversing with one of my men.
"She's a pretty one boss."
I put my cigar out on his arm hearing him whimper in pain.
"Watch it. That's my daughter in law."
I'm still at the restaurant trying to wrap my head around everything.
"Your car is here." The host calls to me. I tip him and leave.
"Where to sir?" The driver asked. I gave him the address of someone I've been meaning to pay visit to.

I can't believe she lived in this dump. I guess Romeo didn't care much for her.
Working to the door I bang hard.
"¡Mercedes abre la puerta !(Mercedes open up the door). I yelled.
"Who the fuck is..." she froze. She was dressed in a baggy t shirt and her hair was a mess.
"You look like shit." I said pushing past her walking into what is supposed to be the living room.
"Mercy who is this man walking into my house?" Some bum laying in the couch questioned.
"Nobody baby." She said trying to calm him down.
"You fucking him to?" He jump up and got in my face.
"I suggest you sit down man." I say calmly.
"And I suggest you get the fuck out." He said back pushing me.
I laughed nodding my head. That was before I pulled out my gun and shit him in-between his eyes.
"Ahhhhhh." Mercy yelled dropping next to the body.
"Oh shut the fuck up." I said sitting in her couch.
"W-wwwhy are you hear Antonio?"
"You should know better than to question me."
She stayed silent. "I see you got sober."
"Unlike you." I stood and slapped her.
"I don't need to get sober." I said walking around her. "I send your son here as a favor so you can get to know him and this..." I pointed around "is the life you give him?"
"I haven't seen Romeo in months!" She yelled.
"This is why I kept him away from you. You are selfish."
"And what about you?"
"How am I selfish? I raised our son. Took care of you even after I sent you back. Made sure you weren't dead." I took a deep breath. "And you repay me by treating my son like garbage."
"Your not a good man Tony!"
"What makes me a bad man Mercy. Cause I sell yeyo. Cause I killed a few people. Cause I made sure our son never knew what struggle was like." I pinched my nose. Slapping her in the face I watch her fall to the ground.
"So I'm the bad guy. I'm a bad guy that loves his son. I also just came to ask you are you going to the graduation."She shook her head no but I like fucking with her. "Use your fucking words. Fucking bitch."
"No. I wasn't invited."
"Okay. Okay. Good. Don't need you clouding his better judgment."
"Why do you always do this to me?"
"Oh Mercy." I bent down to reach her face. "Cause I hate you." I walked towards the door before I left I turned around. "Romeo is moving to Miami soon. I suggest you find away to say goodbye."
"Monty get this body burned." I told one of my men. I turned back to Mercedes. "I never claimed to be a good man."
"Where to now sir?"
"Romeo's house." I needed to speak to my son.
When I walked into his house I went straight upstairs. You would think Romeo would lock doors but old habits die hard.
"Mmm Ro don't stop." I heard moaning coming from his room.
"Fuck Queen you so tight. You gonna cum for me?"
"I'm so close baby."
And this is why he needs to lock his doors.
Opening the room door Nova screamed. Trying to cover her body. "Put some fucking clothes on and come to the living room."
"Papá, ¿qué haces aquí?"(Dad what are you doing here?)
"Necesito hablar con los dos."( I need to talk to the both of you). I closed to door and walked down the stairs. Bout ten minutes later they come walking down the steps.
"Take a sit and don't speak." They looked at each other but did what I said. "So after me and Nova talked earlier I made a decision." I took out my cigar and lit it. "Nova you will be coming to Miami." Her face dropped.
"Pick your mouth up. My son isn't fucking you right now. You guys will be leaving right after graduation."
"But why?" Nova asked.
"My son deserves little happiness. And that's you." With that I left. "Have your shit packed!" I yelled with laughter.
Before I got in the car I head Romeo call me.
"Papá, ¿por qué haces esto?" (Dad why are you doing this).
I sighed. "Romeo eres mi hijo. Te amo a pesar de lo que piensas" (Romeo you are my son. I love you despite what you think." I kissed his cheek and got in my car. Rolling down the window I looked at him. "I'll be at graduation." I didn't give him a chance to reply before I drove off
