FIRE CRACKER FLASH DRIVE AND SECRETS (80)
“I’m glad you are doing better,” I spoke and locked eyes with Charlotte. The woman’s eyes seemed worn out and her skin was a bit pale but had more color than I had remembered. The machines she had been connected to were taken off and her brown hair sat stiffly on her shoulders I watched as she pursed her lips into a straight line before she sighed deeply. “How are you doing?” She asked.I raised an eyebrow at her question. I knew that I had just been discharged from a hospital but I was not the one who had been hit multiple times and assaulted. “I should be asking you that question, I am not the one tied to a hospital bed.” I quipped and pulled a chair out of nowhere, “Besides, I doing perfectly fine, I am glad you are okay, Charlotte, all of us missed you. Especially Leonardo.” I added softly.The woman smiled tiredly. “What about Rye’s trail? How are the preparations going? And Tyler?” She questioned and I could see the spark of curiosity in her brown eyes.“Everything’s falling in
FIRE CRACKER CHOICES (81)
I glanced at Tyler and he sighed, induced lines of stress were visible on his forehead and his head was tilted to the side as he stared at me. The jean-clad man did not offer me any form of acknowledgment and for a moment I felt like he was gauging me."Do you trust me?" I asked, He blinked."What do you mean? Of course, I do," He affirmed softly. "You don't act like it," I added gently and began to walk towards the cafeteria, where Leonardo had run off too."Look, Danielle, I trust you." Tyler must have speed-walked because one moment he was behind me and the next he was in front of me, successfully blocking my way with his hand on my arm.I paused and took in his features for the millionth time that day. He stood straight and sported a white Nike shirt. "Will you tell me what happened last night?""Nothing happened last night Tyler! Why won't you just drop it? This is what I'm talking about!" I yelled and jerked from his grip."I'm not dumb Danielle! Don't treat me like I'm stupid!
FIRE CRACKER NO MATTER WHAT (82)
I could feel his erratic breathing and hear his heartbeats. “You won’t kill me, So put that knife down,”I chuckled and tilted my head a bit lower. “Four people,” I began, then we locked eyes “Four people have told me that I have changed,” I spoke. “Do you think that I am not capable of slitting your throat right now? Do you think I don’t have enough reasons to want to do that?”“We might have misunderstandings but we are still friends!” He blurted out,“No, we stopped being friends when you started rolling in sheets with my underaged sister! You pedophile!” I growled,“I never hurt her!” He defended.“That doesn’t mean that you did not defile her!” I shot at him.“Whatever happened between us, I never forced her in any way, she agreed to it.” He added with a strained tone.“She isn’t old enough to give consent are you kidding me?!” I growled. “Eleven years! There was a freaking Evelyn year gap between you two!” I gritted out.“I loved her…” He whispered after a while. “I still love he
FIRE CRACKER I DID IT (83)
My feet crushed the ground beneath me with a force I never knew I had, My fingers dug into my palm and my knuckles seemed like they would break at any moment, My breathing was sharp and full of fumes, and My eyes narrowed at the hospital hallway and I could hear the aggressive loud beats of my heart block out the noises around me.I only pulled to a halt when I reached my destination, I flung the door open and locked eyes with Charlotte who sported a look of confusion with a glint of fear. "Where is it?" I growled."What do you mean, Danny?" She asked in a tone that sounded too sweet to me at this point, I had a million emotions pulsing through me and I could not think straight at all, I knew full well that I would not be held responsible for my actions if this woman did not answer me quickly and efficiently."I don't have time for this," I gritted out, "Where is it" I added as the bitter taste of betrayal explored my mouth."What do you mean, Danielle? I have n
FIRE CRACKER Paris (84)
"Danielle?" I heard Tyler's voice and I grabbed the Flashdrive and shoved it into my pocket, I wasn't sure why I was hiding it from him, He wasn't my enemy, quite the contrary, I loved the man a lot, but the at that moment, the fear of losing the flash drive was stronger than any emotion I had ever felt."Danielle, You are here," I spun around and locked eyes with Tyler, He seemed like he had either just arrived or had been jogging for a while. His gaze rested on me for a while before his eyes trailed off."Did you find it?" He asked in a casual tone."What do you care about that? Hm? Last I checked..." I began and shoved him out of my way slightly, "You are on Charlotte's side."I heard Tyler sigh as I walked into the living room, the sound of his footsteps resounded in my ears before he spoke "There is no side here, why can't you just understand—""You are the one who doesn't understand and you are not even trying!" I boomed and my eyes stung with tears fo
FIRE CRACKER THOUGHTS (85)
“That woman is a monster,” Tyler noted as I ended the dreaded video, I shut my eyes and sucked in short breaths before I reopened them.“Alice has always been a monster, always,” I added and stood up from the couch I had been sitting on. I heard Tyler sigh and his light footsteps followed.“At least now, You’ve got the information you need, You can get her arrested for your father’s murder,” Tyler informed me. I turned and glanced up at him. “It’s not that simple, my father was shot multiple times, even though this is substantial evidence, there’s no certainty that it is enough to put Alice behind bars. We can only hope that it would save Rye.” I explained.“That’s going to be a bit complicated,” Tyler commented.“Why do you say so?” I asked and he ran his hands through his hair, I licked my lips as I anticipated his response.“Well, I say so because all of this only proves that Alice was connected to your father’s death, the ca
FIRE CRACKER MURDERER (86)
“Leo, you can’t avoid me forever,” I informed the brown-haired boy while he furiously unpacked his luggage.“I’m not avoiding you. I just don’t want to talk to you.” He said and avoided eye contact.I sighed. This was going to be harder than I had expected. I glanced at the room for the millionth time since I had walked in, The bed was covered with a grey Naruto Duvet, the walls were covered with anime wallpaper and if I had no clue what his obsession with these fictional characters, I would say Tyler had gone a bit too far.“At least try to see things from my perspective, when I found out, I was devastated, I felt betrayed and hurt and it was not a nice feeling.” I tried to explain. Leonardo stopped and looked me in the eye.“She was sick, she had just been admitted into the hospital and she had multiple to her head, You seemed to have forgotten all of that — for that dumb tape!” He yelled.“It’s not a dump tape okay?” I shot back a
FIRE CRACKER I SAW HIS FACE (87)
"I saw his face." My bottom lip quivered, my eyes stung with fresh hot tears and my feet felt like they were riding on jelly. It felt like everything was becoming obnoxiously loud and I wanted it to stop."I saw his face," I repeated, my voice sounded a pitch higher than a remember but it felt like my throat my clogged, and my chest was restricted. At this point, it felt like my head was nearly above water because my entire body felt uncomfortable.For the first time in three years, I could see it, I could see it playing like a movie right in front of my eyes, with no blurs, no form or illusions or anything. I saw his face, I saw how his hands pressed onto the trigger button before the bullet went off, I could hear things, very real things.The sound of old music playing in the background from the floor below us, it was my mother's birthday but my father insisted that he wanted her to at least enjoy his genre of music for the first time since they had been married, the sound of glasse
