"Kelvin," Anna called."Hm?" He flickered his eyes open, and sat up rubbing his eyes. He had cried himself to sleep. Anna sighed, and sat beside him, "I'm sorry, but we haven't gotten any response yet. The police haven't found anything yet, no trace of him," she shook her head. He felt the knot in his chest tighten, and he rested his head back on the wall, "Oh," he sniffed, and wipes his nose. "Are you okay?" She reached for his hand to hold him, but stopped, and drew her hand back. "Thank you ma'am. That's a whole lot, thank you so much. I appreciate what you're doing so far." Anna nodded, and looked away. "Hmm, Evelyn would know where he is right?" Her eyes widened, "Wait.. she is the reason all of this took place, we should give her name to the police!" Kelvin shook his head, "No ma'am, I think that would make matters worse. What ifs she does something to harm my brother? I don't want anything to happen to him, let's just hope the police find him naturally." "
She looked at Ralph who was bleeding on the floor, and panicked, she turned her gaze to kelvin, and gulped, "Oh no," she placed her hand over her mouth. Kelvin was flustered, and didn't know what to do either. He looked around for any signs of somebody coming over, but he didn't see anyone. He quickly closed the door, and turned to face Anna, *What do we do now? We can't leave his body here like this." Anna exhaled deeply, her eyes diluting in her sockets, "So what should happen now?""I.. don't know," he placed his hand on his head, panicking. Anna knew this would land Kelvin in serious trouble as her father would channel all the blame on him. She didn't want that for him, she had to think of something, and quick. "Let's go hide his body somewhere, and then, I'll secretly all a doctor over here," she stood akimbo, and gently tilted her head to the side, "That should do it," she said more to herself, than to Kelvin. "Come on, let's go, and put him in the closet,
She rushed to his side, and held his hand to check his pulse, "Ralph?" She called out again. He was still breathing, even his pulse was fine, but he was losing a whole lot of blood. "Ralph? Ralph! What happened to you?" She kept tapping his face slightly. "Water?" She rushed out of the closet, and ran to his bed side to get a glass of water. She picked it up, rushed back to his side, sprinkling water on his face, but he wasn't responding. "How did this happen?" She asked no one in particular. Her head raced back to the moment she had seen Anna, and Kelvin coming out of his closet. Her eyes widened, and she placed her hands over her mouth. "Were.. they trying to kill you?" She gasped, "What?" She screamed. Her screams attracted the guards that were downstairs. They came rushing towards the direction of her screams, "What is the matter ma'am?" One of them asked as soon as they reached Ralph's room. "Look!" She pointed at Ralph's unconscious body, "Can't you see him
He finally let go of Kelvin, spinning around to look at Anna, "Why are you saying this? To protect him?" She shook her head, "Not at all, I was the one who did it, please leave him alone." He stood there his mouth, agape, "You want to kill your brother because of this boy? Is that it?" "No father, it was Ralph's fault, he tried assaulting him, and k had no other choice but to do what I did."He was disappointed in his daughter. He tilted his head to look at Kelvin, who had hung his head. "You will not be the reason this house falls apart boy," he pointed fingers at him, "I'll be watching you, be careful," he turned on his heels, storming out of the living room. Anna ran to hold Kelvin's hand, "Did he hurt you?" She tried to search for any bruise on his face, and arms. He slowly refused her hands, backing away from her , "I.. have to go Miss," he turned on his heels, dragging himself to the door. "Where are you going to?" She raised her brows."To probably find my brot
Evelyn had been in hiding for a few days, for the fear that the police might be after her. She didn't want to go to jail, she was just nineteen! She sat on her couch, her legs crossed, drinking a soda, watching TV. Suddenly, she heard the doorbell ring. Her brows creased into a frown. She had stopped all her friends from coming to see her, who could this be? It rang again, and her heart skipped several beats. Was it the police? She began to shiver, "Oh my God," she shakily got to her feet, "Maybe it is the police," her heart thumped. The doorbell rang again for the third time, but still she didn't open the door. "Hello? Anyone in there?" She heard a rough male's voice from outside."If there's anyone in there, I'm advising you to open the door, else we will break open the door!" Then she knew it was more serious than it really appeared to be. She knew she had to hide or else it would be terrible for her. "We're coming in now," she heard a female voice.Seeing they mi
Anna wrapped her hands around Kelvin's shoulder, "Hey, stop beating yourself about it. We will definitely find him," she patted his shoulder. His phone rung. He immediately whipped it out, it was an unknown number. "Hello?""Hello? Kev? Can you hear me?"His heart skipped several beats, "Jacky is that you?" He rose to his feet. "Yes," Jacky's shrill voice responded.Anna also stood up with him, her eyes widening."Hello, Jacky, where are you? Can you describe it?""I- don't know where this place is, I have not been here before, and.." "Try asking around, just try asking around, someone should tell you." There was silence for a while, "Hello? Jacky?""I'm trying to ask someone, hold on," his shaky voice added.Kelvin tapped his right foot on the ground, his heart skipping several beats. Anna came to hold his shoulder, "Is it him?" Kelvin glanced at her, nodding his head frantically. "I am in Fort Worth." Kelvin's jaws dropped, "What? Fort Worth? You are not in
"I swear Kev, I love you." A young girl of about nineteen years old said. She was wearing a skimpy red dress that was above her knees, with silver stiletto heels. She was fair in complexion, average in height and had nice curves. Her long wavy brown hair reached her waist. She had honey brown eyes, a pointed nose and rosy pink lips. ""Evelyn, you know what we are going to land ourselves on. Ma'am Pat wouldn't like to see us together. She'll be mad."" A young man with old clothes replied. He was pretty handsome, he had sea-blue eyes, his nose was pointed like an eagle's beak and he had red lips. He was quite muscular. ""Momma is not going to know Kev, it'll be a secret, I promise. This is going to be between us."" Evelyn rolled her eyes. ""Besides, is it money you want? I'll give it to you. Just accept me please. I really, really love you."" She pouted. She leaned forward and hugged him, her head on his chest. Kelvin didn't respond to the h
""What is wrong now?"" He wondered. His heartbeat accelerated, a bad feeling suddenly engulfed him. On getting to the entrance, he saw a group of women consoling Jacky. A white cloth was placed over something. ""Can someone tell me what's going on?"" He asked. One of the women stared at him and pointed to the cloth. ""What is under it? What is going on?"" He asked again. "Grandma is dead." Jacky croaked. He was shocked. ""Tell me it's a joke."" He said in what sounded like a whisper. One of the women holding Jacky looked up at him and said, ""No it's not. We can't joke about someone's death, especially that of an old woman."" He felt a sharp pain in his heart. He ran to the body and knelt besides it. "Grandma? Grandma? Wake up!"" Can you hear me? Please get up, you can't leave me now, get up, please get up."" He shook the dead body violently. Some men tried to lead him away from

Kelvin had gone back to his neighborhood, his eyes were filled with tears. He met with the girl who had witnessed it, "How did he look like? What was he wearing? Which direction did he go?" She pointed the direction in which the hitman had taken, "He went that way. He was wearing a black overall I guess," she held her chin. He patted her head, "Thank you so much, I really appreciate this," he managed to smile, and went into the house to grab a few dollar bills he had. His phone rang, "What's up? Anything new?" He heard Anna's voice at the other end of the phone. He shook his head, "No ma'am, nothing yet," he sniffed. "Listen, come over to my place. We should be able to do something tangible from here." "Ma'am?" "No questions. Just come over, and be quick!" He nodded. "Did you hear me?" "Yes ma'am. Thank you so much, I really appreciate it," he bit his lips. "Yeah, I'm expecting you in the next forty five minutes okay?" She hung up. He looked at the phone, and
He had a pistol in his hand, he pointed it at Tom's head, and fired. Tom froze in his tracks, as blood spilled out of his forehead. He staggered backwards. The masked guy came forward and took Jacky away from him, allowing him to fall to the ground freely. Evelyn placed her hands over her mouth, her heart pounding in her rib cage. A cold sweat broke out on her face, "Wh- who are you?" She gulped. He looked in her direction, and she flinched, when his fierce red eyes met hers. He didn't reply to her, he turned on his heels, and walked outside leaving Evelyn shaken.Her eyes moved to Tom's body, he was looking so bad, and she didn't know what to do. She bit her nails, her legs shaking like a leaf, unable to carry her weight anymore. She knew there was no way she could tell the police, because they had also committed a crime.She whimpered, and rushed to Tom's side, "What do I do? What do I do?" She gasped, her hands shaking terribly. "Take him to the hospital? What if th
"Evelyn?! Hey let him go!" He yelled, forgetting he was in front of an office building. He unintentionally dropped the stack of files in his hands. Anna stopped, wondering what was going on at the moment. She took some steps forward, and she heard him yell again."I don't want to date you! Just please leave me alone, and let my brother go, you have a problem with me and not with him!" Anna squinted her eyes sensing trouble. She forgot about the meeting she was to hold, and walked towards him, standing before him. "Just let him go! What are your conditions?" His eyes widened. He was heaving heavily, and struggled to find his words. "Please Evelyn listen to.." the phone call ended.He looked at the phone in panic, "What the hell? What am I supposed to do?" He began to heave heavily, his eyes darting in his sockets. "What is the matter?" Anna asked softly.He leaned against the car, looking for his balance, "Ma'am.. I.. have to go. Permit me to leave please," he cl
