Fourth

It's was about 7 pm when Ace sneaked out of the house.

Those magical walks were some of his happiest times, he's at ease and comfortable.

" you ok ?!" Oren's voice is loud and clear.

Ace snaps his head towards the voice.

He hmmm and walks faster.

Oren has been messing with his mind.

"Where are you going ?! " Oren asks and follows Ace without breaking a sweat.

" nowhere," Ace shrugs and continues walking.

" Does anyone know that you're out here?" Oren asks, Ace glares at him, he's annoying him.

" No," Ace snaps at him and stops walking.

"What do you want?!" Ace frowns and asks.

"I'm just here to fill up the broken Windows in your heart," Oren says softly.

Ace continues walking and completely ignores Oren.

" your brothers care about you," Ace scoffed.

" you're pathetic,"

Ace stops chuckles and looks back at Oren.

"I'm not," He grits his teeth.

" You are, You're hiding away from them because of your fucking father, you can tell them the truth and they will support you," Oren says angrily and looks into Ace's eyes that are filled with tears.

" You don't know a thing," Ace sighs tiredly and starts walking again.

" I know well," Oren stands in his place.

" No, you don't," Ace screams in anger.

" He will fucking kill me if I uttered a word, he doesn't care about anything else other than his money, I don't know why he fucking brought us to this fucking toxic world if it was my choice I would've never stepped a foot in this world," Ace pants can be heard loudly, big fat tears creasing his face.

Oren didn't say a word, he turned around and left.

When he's around his bastard of a father, he feels manipulated and dominated.

Dealing with such a person can be never easy so he should find ways to get rid of the toxicity that clouds his life.

He's got many options.

He either kills himself.

Or kill his father.

Ace is lonely, so fucking lonely even though there are crowds of people in his life and around him.

Ace tries to get rid of his thoughts, he sighs and walks back to his house.

" Boy," Ace snaps his head towards one of the hallways in his house, he clenches and looks at him.

" Come in," He smirks and leads him into his office.

" Glad you came without protesting," He couldn't shake away the bad feeling that rushed through him the moment he stepped inside the office.

"Are you ready then?", the man asked in amusement, an impatient expression appeared on his features.

"Yes, sir", Ace said with a nod and took a deep breath, waiting for someone to grab him by his hair and throw him on the floor like every time.

Instead, his blood turned ice-cold when he heard the words that rolled off Alec's tongue a moment later.

" Let's tie you up then,"

Before even realizing it, Alec leads him to a punching bag he has in his office, he grabbed the rope and tied him to it.

Ace's innocent eyes were looking around the office.

Something was definitely wrong this time.

In one swift and strong move, Ace felt excruciating pain in his stomach as he punches him with full force.

Then, he started punching him and kicking him like Ace wasn't there and there was only the punching bag in front of him.

Ace is trying to contain his cries and whimpers of pain, he can't let his siblings hear him.

blood was spilt all over the floor as the room was filled with Ace's groans and grunts in extreme pain.

"Will you cry this time you pussy?", the one man said callously as he threw another vicious punch on his jaw, making him spill more blood.

Everything around him was spinning, his whole body went numb as he couldn't keep his eyes open anymore.

The pain felt like a hot, sharp knife, covered in salt, slicing through his skin and into his muscles and bones.

Punch after punch and kick after kick, Ace wasn't moving anymore and it took him a moment to realize that.

The man was panting hard as he shook him to see if he was unconscious. "That was fast", he snickered devilishly.

"Ah, that piece of shit. Can't even take a little beating like a man", he clicked his tongue in irritation.

He unties him and let him drop to the floor.

He tsked and left the blood-filled office.

After about thirty minutes, Ace wakes up, he's in pain, extreme pain.

He gets out f the house, barely on his knees and heads to the only house that he knows that will welcome him.

He is bleeding tons, the blood that dripped from his body traced his path to the door he's standing in front of.

He slowly climbs the two steps with his hands since his legs gave up on him, they were freezing from the snow.

He hesitantly knocks on the door and lay down in front of the door.

He never thought about how life could be

As his journey continues day by day

Each step of his steps seems like in the wrong way

Why does it happen to him?

Did he sin?!

Did he commit a crime in his past life?!

Why is life so cruel and brutal to him?!

His soul is paralyzed.

Life for him seems always unfair because even if he's trying to work hard, it seems that he did not go forward, it appears that everything he did was just bouncing like a ball and he did not get anywhere.

" Ace?!!!" Mr Garret's faint and surprise is making Ace smile.

He can feel Mr Garret carrying him into his home.

" Don't call my parents," Ace barely utters in a voice full of pain.

He still called them parents.

" God, What happened to you?!"

Ace lays unconscious.
