The boy's scream tore through the night. "I'll find you,, no matter what it takes!!" His voice cracked, but he kept shouting, arms wrapped around the lifeless weight of the man who would never answer him again. Warm blood soaked through the boy's shirt, sticking the fabric to his shaking body. He pressed his forehead into his father's chest as if he could push life back into him. A few steps ahead, the killer didn't even look back. Gun dangling loosely at his side, he walked away with the cold steadiness of someone who'd done this before,, someone who wasn't afraid of a child's promise.. The boy lifted his head, tears streaking through the dirt on his face, watching that fading silhouette.. Every breath hurts. Every heartbeat etched the moment deeper.. He didn't know the man's name. He didn't know the reason.. But he knew one thing with terrifying clarity.. this night was carved into his soul.. and he would follow that shadow until the truth finally bled through. • "I will do anything to get my revenge." •
