The Loudest Silence

"You don't try to double cross a person like Rick and expect to leave unscathed. He will always find out and get his revenge, no matter what." Roman said quietly. My response died in my mouth as I watched Rick and his men rush over towards the car.

As soon as the men had piled in, I revved the engine before speeding off. Loud voices filled the car as the rowdy men scrambled to discard any evidence and blood that had stained their hands.

Restraining myself from displaying disgust at their actions, I silently drove off into the dark night with Roman's words echoing in my mind.

This was my life.

And I would never find an escape.
