Becoming a lawyer, doctor or teacher was probably every child's dream. Success lies within us, no matter which path we take. We battle every second with good and evil,until one day we snap! Nothing here was familiar anymore, this life was a lie.... Playing his game was something I became good at, he never knew of my miscarriage and I wasn't going to tell him. Losing apart of me made me felt like a empty barrel, smiles on my face, nothing but darkness in my heart. His life couldn't continue as if nothing had happen. The family portrait I found online with Davon shocked me because alongside him was my Papa. Shocking right? My search didn't stop right there, I needed answers and no matter how long it took me, there was no giving up. Growing up as kids most times we never know the type job our parents do, all we know is that no day came and we went to bed hungry. Flashes of my youth started to come back, conversations between my parents became clearer, I was more matured now. My discovery didn't help the situation anymore than wanting Davon to suffer for what he did to me. Now this revenge was deeper than I'd ever imagine! Papa fatal accident wasn't just a Car Accident....
Truth hurts us, Oh yes it does. "Revenue profits are expected to be a boost from here and now, so after this final drop am leaving to spend quality time with my Family" was a email message my Papa had sent to Davon about three days before he died. Driving truck was my Papa job, but what he delivered we never knew. Could this be a lie? Memories of how we met played with head. Was he keeping me close for a reason? He saw a weak child so he deem to take advantage. This was never Love! He needed me close by to get his job done. Only person I trust right now was Mecca, she helped me to get over the lost of my baby. Though nights I cried myself to sleep every night. One thing I needed to know more of, is why did he kill my Papa. "Cyrus" was my oldest brother and eldest son of us all, remember his history of staying out of prison didn't last longer than about two months. I now know the reason behind it all.... Excited about the news but also confused by who gave me the information baffle me, but this I had to see. Mama & Papa always told us that Cyrus had been sentenced to life in prison for causing harm to someone else. We never really understood, but it was ok news for us, he never was around so his absence wasn't missed. I was finally putting the puzzles together, and the deeper I dug, the more I realized how fucked up this really was! As long as Davon lived death lurked in every door step with hell peeking through one dark window. Mecca knew about my brother Cyrus. Strange isn't it? Though we shared life stories my siblings names never came up. It was so many questions I had install for her, but at this moment it all faded when we arrive to this abandoned building deep within the forest. Instantly this image seemed so familiar, soft whisper to myself "I've been here before". We pulled up and park, Mecca blink the car lights four times and suddenly a large steel door opened. As we exit out of the vehicle, the closer we came my knees limbered and tears flowed down my eyes. Sucker for tears? Most definitely, it was one of the only ways I knew how to explain my emotions. Flicker of lights four times was something Papa did when he arrived home from a busy night of work. There he stood, Cyrus was the splitting image of Papa. I had to be brave, was no time to cry and reminisce on old times. For there was a job to be done & I needed to be focused! Although Davon was a Leader of the one of the largest Cartel called "Bel Casa", many men that work alongside him wasn't loyal. This was going to be the night I put a stop to Davon! We knew his routine, I was holding the map to end his life. Nothing could of stop me now. He had kids and the thought about losing mines brought fire in my eyes. Growing up without a Father isn't easy but he toke that away from me so taken him away from his kids, was pay back.
