Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 18 - An eye for an eye
"Yea--yeah... Sure. See you tomorrow" I answered sharply with a vigorous nod of my head before dashing out of the playhouse to meet Andrew so I could talk him out of carrying out with our plan because I had a change of heart; not that I wasn't bold enough to face Kelvin - no! But because I wasn't willing to risk Chloe's trust for me nor our relationship.I FOUND Andrew standing behind a half brick wall - poking his head sideways to spy on Kelvin who was totally unaware but stood, conversing with someone outside the cafe. So I walked towards Andrew from behind with my steps so stealthy he wasn't even aware of my presence."Bro... We need to talk" I whispered with my lips close to Andrew's left ear - causing him to jerk in fright on hearing my sudden whisper. "Man don't you sneak up on me like that... Fu*k!" Andrew sighed as he turned to face me - holding a wooden stick in his left hand which I presumed was for Kelvin. "The dude's over there talking... We'll just wait for him to be do

"Um.. Andrew -- the blood stain is from Andrew" I said cowardly, giving my mom a convincing nod as I stood - waiting to hear her next response. "Andrew?" She gasped rhetorically in a concerned voice - moving a step closer with her facial expression a bit worried than angry. "What happened to him?" "Pfff... Nothing serious to worry about mom - he was drunk and bumped his head on a brick wall. That's all" I chuckled nervously with a shrug - rubbing the back of my neck with my right palm as I spoke.Then my mom heaved a deep breath of relief and said "Okay, you get changed -- and your dinner is in the...""I think I'll pass -- dinner. I don't really feel like eating tonight" I cut in sharply - grinning widely at my mom who only gave me a slow suspecting nod before turning and walked towards her room down the corridor. 'oooff... That was close' I muttered inaudibly to myself in relief before turning to enter my room."What's you and your mom bickering about?" Shelly asked the moment I s

"Shelly!" I called out sharply with my voice raised in panick - chuckling awkwardly as I moved towards them the moment they simultaneously turned their heads to face me."Shelly, why don't we um -- get Chloe here some refreshment then, you both can continue your chit chat" I said, clearing my throat halfway as I spoke while rubbing my palms with my gaze fixed on Shelly who only gave me a mischievous smirk before turning her gaze at Chloe and said. "Babe, what will you like to have?""Water will be nice" Chloe answered calmly. "Nah... I know what I'll get you" Shelly teased with a faint chuckle and left for the kitchen.I squeezed my eyes closed for a split second in pleasant relief before turning to look at Chloe whose eyes were roving - staring at the family portraits hung on the wall. "Please feel free to look around... Um, I'll be with you shortly" I said to Chloe in a hasty voice with my legs impatient to leave. I needed to rush now into the kitchen and see Shelly just before she

I cleared my throat and moved forward to assisting her unburden the load. "Welcome Mom... Let me help you with those" I urged, stretching my hands forward with a forced smile on my face. "No don't worry..." My mom countered with a calm voice, shifting the bags away from my outstretched hands and walked past me. "So Chloe, I hope you're comfortable?""Yes Miss, I am." Chloe answered my mom with a courteous nod of her head."And I hope you'll stay -- for lunch? It will be nice to have a new face in the dining room" My mom teased - smiling softly at Chloe who giggled, giving me a quick glance before returning her gaze back on my mom and chuckled "um... I guess I will""Liam... Where is Shelly?" My mom inquired in a concerned voice, turning her body halfway to look at me from where I stood few metres behind. So I moved a step closer and was about speaking when I paused instantly on seeing Shelly entering into the palour -- almost making me wonder if she'd been eavesdropping on our conv

It was Andrew looking lifeless on his knees with his face bloodied from the bruise and cuts which made me wonder just how long he endured being tortured and beaten by the two guys who flanged him on both sides with one of them pulling his hair back so his face could be visible to the phone camera. I couldn't lie that I wasn't moved on seeing him in that condition - infact, I was weak with my knees knocking eachother in trembling fright. Did he get himself into a bad debt with someone that they came after him? This was the question running through my mind because I couldn't see any reason for these guys to have held my best friend captive. Suddenly, my eyes widened in suspicion when I realised that none of the two guys were holding Andrew's phone to make the phone call - meaning there was a third person behind the camera. "What do you want!?" I yelled with a furious frown on my face when I noticed one of the guys place a knife on Andrew's throat with a mischievous smirk on his face.

I yelled in a loud voice, saying "Tell us, just anything and we will do it!"Then I noticed Kelvin motioning his right hand at the two thugs who stopped dragging us - loosing their grip on our shirts. So I crawled my way on the ground towards Andrew who was coughing and wincing in pain. "Now let's come to a mutual agreement shall we?" Kevin's voice broke out as he came forward and squatted in front of us as we sat side by side on the ground with my left arm around Andrew's shoulder. "Just anything, name it and let us go please" I begged in a frightened voice, gulping hard as I kept my gaze fixed on Kelvin who laughed contemptuously and raised himself to stand erect. Then the smile on his face vanished into a wicked smirk as he parted his lips and said. "If I ever see you anywhere near Chloe, I'll come after your friend or that pretty girl I saw on the video call. Do we have a deal?" "Ye--es" I managed to say with a nervous shake of my head - looking at Kelvin who signalled his tw

"So um... How's your mom?" Andrew's low voice broke out after a few minute of silence, trying to change the main subject of our discussion."She's fine" I chuckled with an awkward shake of my head before standing up from the sofa. "Look man, I need to um -- get going to work, maybe I'll stop by later in the evening" "Yea sure... You do your thing -- I'll be here till I get discharged" He replied, giving me a vigorous nod of his head as he spoke. Then I scoffed and turned to leave when Andrew called back to me again. "Hey Liam""Uh huh" I hummed lowly and turned around to face him. "Look man, I never really thanked you for saving me last night...and it's selfish of me. So thank you -- for having my back" Andrew heaved in a much remorseful voice that broadened the smile on my face. "You would have done the same for me bro. Now -- if you'll excuse me, I have some gardening to attend to" I replied, concluding my response with an amused laugh that also got Andrew laughing -- and witho

"Someone thinks he can make a fool of me""What do you mean?" I asked, gently dropping the mower on the floor with a nervous look on my face."Don't fu*king ask me to explain myself" Kelvin growled under his clenched teeth - pointing his right index finger at me as he took a step closer. "I thought I warned you to stay clear of Chloe? -- but it looks to me...""She only wanted to ask me if I was going to be working tomorrow which I told her no" I lied in interruption, trying to sound as convincing as possible while fixing my eyes on Kelvin who slowly lowered his right hand and scoffed."Don't forget, I'll be watching" Kelvin threatened in a low concluding voice, wearing a mischievous smirk on his face and patted me twice on my left shoulder before turning to leave.I heaved out a deep breath after he left. For a split second I thought he was going to confront me about my phone call with Andrew. But clearly, he had zero knowledge of that!'Make all the threat you want, soon -- this wil

"Hey hey..." I exclaimed in panick, rushing forward to shield the Jamaican guy with my arms spread apart. "Step aside bro" Andrew instructed under clenched jaw, placing his left palm under his right hand to steady his aim at the Jamaican guy whose hand was now gripping the revolver gun in his waistline. "Chill.. can everyone just put their guns down!" I yelled, wincing slightly from the pain I felt on my jaw as I shouted. "And why the fu*k should we do that?" Ramirez countered with his eyes still glued on the guy behind me."Because he saved our lives -- both of us" I answered plainly and looked at Andrew. "Trust me man, we would have been dead if not for him -- please, lower your guns down." Andrew hesitated for a brief moment, inhaling deeply before lowering his gun down. Then he turned sideways to give Ramirez and Anthony a nod of his head which they obediently obliged and lowered their guns down. I heaved a deep breath and lowered my arms before stepping aside to stand with Ch
Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 33 - The Devil Doesn't Bargain
My only prayer now was for Chloe to be found and safe back home in the arms of her mom, with or without me being there to see it happen because at this point, I had zero hope in escaping the Jamaican or being rescued. *****"Pull up here --" he said to the taxi driver and compelled me to pay the transport fare the moment we reached the destination. Then we both came out of the car and the taxi driver sped off. I gulped hard as I stood motionless, facing the old cranky gate of the former swan high school. The site has been abandoned for some years now with claims of some politician making plans to buy the whole place for the purpose of turning it into a factory. This was a very quiet environment -- almost like the abandoned factory Kelvin had me and Andrew taken to be killed.So with every courage i could muster in me, I turned to face the Jamaican guy who stood behind, pointing his gun directly at my abdomen. "Look man -- I never shot at your brother, I wasn't even with a...""Too l
Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 32 - Didn't see that coming!
"I think... She's been shot by the hitman" I managed to say in a breathless whisper with my eyes flickering - struggling to fight back the tears that welled up. "Oh no..." Andrew gasped and pulled away. "We have to get to her... Quick, get in the car" he said in panick, moving to the side and opened the driver's door. "Goddam Liam... We don't have much time" he growled when he noticed me leaning instead of moving to enter the car. "Okay" I sniffed and pulled away, placing my right hand on the car to balance my staggering frame as I walked and entered the passenger seat with Andrew turning on the ignition switch before he sped us out of the garage for my house. *****WE NOTICED a police car parked on the road in front of my house entrance the minute we arrived."Who's he talking to?" Andrew asked with our gazes looking out through his driver window when we noticed a middle aged police man standing in front of our palour entrance, writing something on a small note as he conversed wi
Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 31 - No time for sympathy
She pulled it down and whispered to my face in a concerned voice. "Can I come by the house later this evening?" "Yea... Sure you can." I forced a smile and leaned in to give her a brief kiss on the lips. "Now, let's get you in a taxi."Few minutes later, the taxi drove off with her before I entered another one that took me straight to Andrew father's old garage where we had first regrouped. WHEN I entered the garage, I found Anthony leaning his butt on the car parked inside with his hands folded - wearing a frightened look that got me dispirited. "Listen man, this shit is getting way out of hand" Andrew lamented with his arms spread apart as he trotted towards me. "What did you say happened to Miguel... Is he still alive?" I stopped in front of Andrew who was rubbing his sweaty forehead in panick. "He's on a fu*king stretcher inside an ambulance headed to the hospital as we speak" Andrew licked his lower lip, turning from side to side in anger. "Your boy Kelvin -- he needs to be
Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 30 - The hitman strikes
I lowered myself very slowly to sit on the couch next to hers. "Aha, Liam... Why are you here and not at work?" Shelly inquired in a surprised tone the moment she noticed my presence on entering the palour from the corridor. Then she sat on the same couch as my mom."He just got fired" My mom blurted plainly, expressing her disappointment as she turned to face Shelly who casted a shocked look at me."Why were you fired Liam?" Shelly asked with my mom now returning her gaze back at me. "I got -- Chloe pregnant, and she's my boss's daughter" I confessed to my mom under clenched jaw with my head sagged in cowardice. "What!" My mom's loud exclaim rose my head up at an instant. She seemed very shocked and raged at the same time. Then, her expression turned to that of surprise curiousity when she noticed how reserved and quiet Shelly was; after all, it was no big news to her since I already told her this morning before leaving the house."So -- you knew about this too?" She turned her bo
Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 29 - The bridge between us
"Um.." I hesitated for a moment"Dad.. Liam and I want to see you and mom" Chloe informed before I could even make out the right words. 'what?!' I screamed in my head, looking briefly at Chloe from the corner of my eye as she casted a quick glance at me. "Okay, then let's go inside so your mom and I can hear what it is you have to tell us" Her dad turned and motioned for us to follow as he walked into the house. "Are you sure about this Chloe?" I used my left hand to clamp Chloe's right wrist in protest, bringing her steps to a abrupt halt. Then she turned halfway to face me and pulled her hand away from my grasp. "Let's just do this Liam... It's best if we tell them.""Right --" I mumbled, clearing my throat as I followed behind Chloe who led me Into the house and down to their large, elegantly furnished sitting room where we both sat on the same couch, facing her parents who sat side by side on the opposite couch. I couldn't help but rove my eyes in admiration, staring at the lar
Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 28 - All roads lead to one stop
We dodged incoming passersby, running like our lives depended on it with our arms spread evenly apart, swaying front and back like a pendulum. We had no single clue as to where we were actually heading to; all we wanted was to be out of sight from the stranger who was gradually closing in on us. Then straight ahead, we saw a crowd of teenagers approaching our direction. They looked like high school students on excursion with an adult male, leading the way with his hands pointing occasionally at buildings. "Quick, there's a path on your left" Andrew notified me in short breaths and rocked me hard to the bending with his left shoulder as we entered and continued running. The path was a bit narrow with walls of tall storey buildings line up - making it rather impossible for me and Andrew to run side by side. So he took to my front and led the way."Andrew?... Hey, there's a -- wired fence in front of us. What -- will we do?" I called out in worry with my voice slightly breaking in shor
Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 27 - The cost of love
"Um..." I gave out a low groan and rubbed my forehead with my right hand, making my final decision on what to say. "A man got shot beside me at the bar tonight, so his blood got splattered on my sweater?" I lied, turning my cowardly gaze to the side as if I was depressed by what I'd just said. "Oh dear!" Shelly gasped in a saddened voice and moved closer, turning my head to face her with both hands pressed against my cheeks. "I'm sure that must have been so terrifying for you to have witnessed" Her soft consoling whisper only woke the frightening images of tonight's attack. "Hm-mm" I hummed softly. Then I raised both my hands and curled my fingers around Shelly's wrist as her hands remained on my face. "I just want to um... Get changed and possibly, get some sleep. It's been -- a long night""Yeah, sure... You don't look to bright yourself, maybe some sleep could do." she agreed in a hasty whisper, pulling her hands from my face before stepping aside to give me some space.I forc
Forget Love - Just Get Laid! Chapter 26 - Feel my wrath!
So without warning, I moved forward with both hands clenched hard on the wooden stick and swung it hard, hitting him on the side of his face that got the guy wincing in pain. His other brother was quite furious at my sudden action and was about raising himself to come at me when Ramirez moved forward and slammed the butt of his gun hard on his forehead - sending the Jamaican guy crashing down on his knees.I turned my head to look at Andrew as I retreated two steps from the thugs. I could tell he was pleased by what I'd just done by the way he nodded at me with a brief smile. Then the smile on Andrew's face faded into a stern look as he moved forward with his right hand outstretched, pointing the gun at the two thugs who were groaning with an angry look on their faces. "Now where does your boy Kelvin normally frequent -- like a club or mall?" Andrew asked in a demanding voice.But all the Jamaican brothers did was laugh at Andrew's inquisition, as if was a joke.
