"I am not perfect.
I make mistakes.
I hurt people.
But when I say sorry,
I really mean it."

Eduardo: I know I messed up.

That was the text Daphne woke up to in the morning. She deleted it and didn't bother to text back, but later in the afternoon, he texted again.

Eduardo: Can u please reply...
call me...

Or suffer the consequences...

Daphne laughed at the text. "Suffer the consequences? What are you gonna do? Tie me to a chair?" she spoke to her phone stupidly.

After letting David know he was coming over, Eduardo headed out to his driveway. Before he could make it to his car, five guys, all covered with black ski masks, surrounded him. Without giving him any time to react, one of the guys restrained both his arms and the one in front of him stepped up to say, "Think twice before you disrespect her again."

This same guy struck his fist into Eduardo's face, and immediately after, they were all punching him until he was knocked down to the ground. Eduardo groaned in pain from their incessant kicks. He helplessly tried getting up to defend himself but it was too many of them.

Once they felt their job was done, they ran off, leaving him lying there defenselessly on the floor with blood coursing throughout his face and his clothes stained with dirt and shoe prints.
