Lustless

Chapter 2: Lost

"Veve" the name keep resounding in Eric's mind. So many questions rushed back into his head. Could this be her the mystery mother everyone was afraid to talk about? Where was she? Why did she leave?Was it his fault? Is this real? Eric was quickly cut from his train of thought as he felt his dad's hand slap the back of his head.

"Boy this ain't the time to be falling apart" his dad said without taking his eyes off the road.

Eric realize that a single tear ran down his face and he had dropped the phone. He understood why his dad had hit him from the outside it looked like he was broken up about what happened at the school. Then it dawn on him how did Veve know his dad's number? Did his dad know all this time.

Realizing that she was still on the phone Eric reached for it, but his dad was faster.

"Who the hell could this be" Andrew said placing the phone to his ear "Hel-".

Andrew fell silent as the woman began to speak. Searching for an answer on his father's face Eric notice he made a face that was unusual at least for his dad. Andrew face was both puzzled and sad yet he had a smirk all at once. Listening closely to the woman (not giving his hopes up in the thought that she might be his mom) Eric could tell that she was rushed. Once the phone hung up, his dad turned down a alley and told him to get out. Eric looked at him with the straightest face and asked "why?".

"Well if we are going to be chased by people with guns we need some too" said Andrew with a smile.

As they got out the trunk popped. Never knowing his dad to even know how to use a gun Eric walked to the trunk in disbelief. Opening the trunk was more confusing as nothing was in there. Puzzled Eric turned just to see his dad take something out his pocket. Then a feeling of numbness spread threw his body followed by darkness.

"It would be much easier to handle this without the boy" said Andrew while putting Eric's body into the trunk and driving off.

It was hard to see his son trying to cope with what little info he did have, knowing the whole truth would break him. With task at hand Andrew picked up his phone to make a call he hadn't wanted to make in a long time.

"Who this?" said a husky voice.

"Code gray" whispered Andrew into the phone.

"Code gray....Oh what up drew ayeeee its been forever man why you whispering talking about code gray like you James bond or something you ain't Spykids "remarked the voice.

"Man stop playing can't you take anything serious Andre " said Drew as he realize why he didn't talk to his older twin brother often.

"Alright, where you at?" said Andre sound a bit restless.

"Coming up the street-" he was cut off by the sound of gun shots.

Two all black chargers were following him and shooting from a distant. Knowing that the scene  was very common in this part of town where his brother lived he hurried to get to his brother house for reinforcements. Only two houses away Andrew saw someone come on Andre's porch. He quickly identified it as his brother by the fact that the figure was holding a rocket launcher. Andre laughing shot two rockets in Andrew direction.

Knowing that his brother wasn't the best aim he turned into a neighboring lawn last minute as the two cars continued in the path of the rockets.

Now the first rocket missed and hit a parked car on the side of the road that had been stripped. The second rocket actually hit one of the cars that in turn flew onto the second car. Right when it was over Andre fired one last rocket to finish them off. Hurrying to the car with a gym bag with God knows what , Andre hopped into the car.

"Did you see that? had them doing flips" said Andre gleefully as he closed the door.

"I see you still think your in some kind of action movie and almost killed me in the process, where the FUCK YOU GET A ROCKET LAUNCHER " yelled Andrew with sharp sting in his tone.

"This Cuban chick I fuck with and man whatever you act like I can't just call the mayor and fix this ."

Not wanting to delay they pulled off heading to Andrew's vacation home. Pulling up at around 9:00pm to a condo on the upper east side Andrew could barely see the outline of a black limo in front.

"You need me to handle this" stated Dre grabbing his bag.

"Naw I got this I need you to handle of some in the trunk" said Drew exiting the car and walking toward the limo.

"Where you going " yelled Dre out the side door.

Drew didn't respond knowing full well Who was in the car . He opened the limo door and sat across from figure that he knew far too well. Not seeing her face drew spoke into the darkness of the limo breaking an deathly silence.

"So how's everything going.........wife?"
