Chapter 53Shawn's father had some sort of blind faith in his son after Shawn has explained his plan clearly to him and told him all he needed to know about the VC. One of the hardest things there was to accomplish was to remove someone like the VC from that position notwithstanding the connection, with no valid reason.After the conversation Shawn had with his father, he had gone out of the car quickly to go look for his friends. After everything he told his father, Shawn's father was clear that Mike had nothing to do with anything that happened and was just trying to help out. . . And so for that, Shawn was allowed to go and see Mike.Shawn had picked up a hoodie he found at the back of the car when he got in. He wore it and stepped out. He needed to avoid the spotlights of cameras and people making videos. He needed to stay clear of the eyes of the people around him.Shawn had earlier tried to get in contact with Mike and Leah so he could know where they were but none of them was p
Chapter 54 It was a hot sunny afternoon, Shawn had been back home taking to take a nap from the heat of the sun, and he had decided to remain quiet about everything that happened during the attack. He begged Pedro too to not say anything about it to his father. Shawn knew what would come next if that happened. It was just exactly what he was trying to avoid. Pedro agreed to it but promised Shawn that he was definitely going to spill some blood the next time anyone attacked. Shawn did not want this, but it had to be. Pedro had made a decision and Shawn knew all he had to do was to be alert to any danger and call Pedro. "Umm! Uncle Pedro. . . I need to get some clothes myself at the mall," Shawn said to Pedro waiting for the final approval from him. "Can't you send the maids this one? I believe they will get whatever you want there for you," Pedro said as he looked away and tried to light up his cigar. "I know, I could, but you know they have no idea what size of clothes I wear and
Chapter 55Shawn almost froze to death as he stood there waiting for what was going to happen next to him. He had no idea what he would do next as he saw his legs beginning to shake uncontrollably."He is shaking. . . This little boy is shaking," they gibed and began to laugh making fun of Shawn.Shawn felt his legs shifting back as if he needed to run as fast as he could."What do you want from me? I could just leave right now and none of this would ever happen, and maybe, you guys could go on with what you were doing in the first place," Shawn muttered, facing the cart tightly."Nah, we will not let this go. . . Now let's see what's in your bag!" The man uttered, catching Shawn off guard."What did you say?" Shawn asked shocked he was going to give everything he was about to buy away, alongside his money"I said. . . Hand over all you have on you and walk away," the man said."I can't do that. . . This is not for me by the way as I'm getting these for my parents," Shawn lied hoping
Chapter 56Shawn and Pedro headed out to the restaurant almost immediately wasting no time. Pedro needed to get hold of the people who robbed Shawn and also teach them a lesson.Shawn showed Pedro the faster direction and they got there in minutes. Pedro was a quick driver and didn't care what the police were going to say. He only had some sort of luck because the policemen always needed some bribe and he was free to go."There it is!" Shawn pointed in the direction of the mall and Pedro turned the car into the parking lane where he was going to park the car and step out.Shawn led the way as they got into the mall like they were some gangsters not minding who had been watching them from behind."Which way?" Pedro asked Shawn, taking a glance around where he was standing."This way!" Shawn muttered as he began to move in the direction where the guys were. He was hoping they would still be there but as he kept on approaching, he knew they were gone."It's this place. . . They are gone,
Chapter 57Pedro had arrived back home with Shawn, who had been smiling all day as he fiddled with his phone in the car. Pedro had noticed how his face had been really tight when they left the mall, because he had done something bloody, but it came as a surprise to Shawn that he was smiling all through the way back home"What's making you smile that way?" Pedro asked not giving Shawn the scary eye contacts"Nothing!" Shawn answered as he shrugged his shoulders and pretended not to be smiling even when he had been caught."Okay! Pack your bags and let's get into the house," Pedro said as he dropped Shawn's bags on the floor and went in."Why did you. . .? I thought you were going to help me carry them," Shawn cried."Oops! Sorry, I would if you told me who your secret girlfriend was," Pedro winked at Shawn and walked past the door."How does he even know that?" Shawn muttered to himself."Ohh! Because only girls will make guys smile foolishly on their phones. . ." Pedro yelled from now
Chapter 58Shawn was worried about everything that happened and how Pedro kept on waving away his questions each time he asked the reason he came up like that at them. Pedro never turned his face away from the car steering as he kept his eyes steady on the wheels.He stood in the car once he reached one of the restaurants. Shawn got out quickly and began to look around like he had been there before"We have been here before. . . Right?" Shawn said to Pedro."Yes!" Pedro muttered and quickly went mite from then on as he walked into the restaurant. Shawn knew he had every reason to take it that, that was his best restaurant. Shawn walked in staying on Pedro's shoulders as he moved in with him."Some tequila ma'am. . . With nice tasty food. . ." Pedro said to the woman as he walked quickly to his favourite table which was far away from the front door, which they came in through and rather closer to the back door.The woman brought her drinks and displayed them on the table just as Pedro
Chapter 59“Hey, Leah!! Wait up!” Mike's voice sounded from behind as he tried to reach Leah from afar out."Mike! How are you doing. . .?" Leah asked, taking a wild stare at Mike from top to bottom."I'm good. . . Why are you giving me that face?" Mike asked, smiling."You are so hot right now!" Leah said, winking at him."Yea! I know right, the sun is so hot right now, I can't wait to get back," Mike said and looked away."You are crazy, you know that? I meant you motherfucker," Leah said laughing."Ohhh thank you," Mike smiled mischievously. He knew what she meant all along but he needed her to say it again. . . He was enjoying taunting her"You don't look bad yourself," Mike said to Leah."Ohh, please! Spare me. I've lost a lot of weight and I'm definitely going to need a whole week to refill so don't even say I look fine," Leah responded, chuckling."Come on, give me a hug!" Mike muttered as he got close to her and Leah got into his open arms."Yup! That's it!" Mike muttered when
Chapter 60What are we still doing here?" Leah yelled into Shawn's ears as he stood looking like he was not even present anymore."Hey. . .! Why did you do that? Why did you have to scream into my ear like that?" Shawn said angrily as he stared down at Leah."I have been saying this for the last 5 minutes and you still acted like you didn't hear me, and do not fucking lie you didn't hear me," Leah said to him."What did you say. . .? I honestly didn't hear a thing you said. . ." Shawn asked like he knew nothing of such."I have been calling you, asshole. . . We need to leave here, I mean what are we doing here?" Leah asked Shawn.Shawn couldn't say a word, it seemed like it was the same question he had been asking himself but the answers were not coming."Okay! Let's not go into that heat and argument, let's just leave right now," Shawn said to Leah."By the way, where did Mike go to. . .?" Shawn asked as tried turning his neck to spot Mike."Look over, he is just there! He's right ov
