Dex’s POV

I woke up to voices arguing. I got out of bed, my little feet barely making it to the floor and I jump down. Everywhere is so dark that I can’t even see my hands or my next step.

“NO!!!!!!!!!!” I yelled

He knew she was a greedy woman.“Lukas will you come here right this instant! Don’t you dare walk out on me” his mother shouted at the peak of her voice. He stopped in my tracks and turned to her.“Mum, could you please tone down your voice.” Lukas frowned “Lukas you can’t keep going to parties every weekend. What of work?” she said as she kept following me around like a puppy. Her voice composed this time.“Mum please leave work alone for me. Right now I just want to unwind. “He knew just the best thing to shut her up. He went into his car and took out wads of cash. He estimated the amount. It was triple of the amount he always gave to her. She smiled shyly as he stared at the money. He knew his mother to well.

Luther was mad at him. “Have you seen him?” came Luther’s voice the moment he stood at the entrance of his room. Henry bowed his head. “No” he was ashamed of himself for not nipping Lukas in the bud. He didn’t know what he was waiting for. The arrest and the call to Luther that afternoon was the most embarrassing call he had to endure. Luther was giving him one word answers. He had to use his brain to decipher the real meaning of what Luther was saying. As he stood there, he was expecting that Luther would go on a rant. Telling him how he was disappointed him and all. He shut his eyes waiting for it come. When he came he had expected Luther to slam the door on him. But Luther did none of that. Rather Luther sat facing the window.

It was a lie. Lukas must have wanted to hurt him with his words. He checked the time. It was 4am. Perfect. He threw on a shirt and headed for the gym. All through he couldn’t concentrate.
