I can’t say that I blame him for anything that happened, she’s the one that was doing all the flirting, but the fucker was always sniffing around her. That’s something I was going to put an end to once and for all.
I could always have him removed from the campaign but for some fucked up reason, I didn’t really want to hurt the kid for doing that comes naturally. Had he been older and more experienced, I would’ve already knocked him on his ass, but I was young once.
I figured I’d go have a little talk with him once and for all. Lay everything out for him so there’s no room for mistakes and if he persisted in the future, I’d have every right to beat the shit out of him kid or not.
He was subletting a walk-up in SoHo. Just a twenty-minute drive this time of the evening so I decided to drive myself.
After this, I was going to deal with Marion once and for all, that’s if she hadn’t decided to move on since I hadn’t heard anything out of her corner since we’d gone to L.A. maybe she had given up and decided to move on.
The place was in a decent enough neighborhood that I didn’t mind leaving my car parked for the ten minutes or so it was going to take me to say what I’d come here to say.
He opened the door on the second knock and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw me. I pushed him back and closed the door behind me. I had no plans to be here longer than was necessary so I just got right the fuck to it.
Wrapping my hand around his throat I pushed him into the wall. “Stay the fuck away from Gabriella, this is your only warning.” I turned to leave the way I came.
“Why should I?”
“Kid are you really in that much of a hurry to die?” I looked back at him and something about him struck me as odd.
I couldn’t quite put my finger on it, but there was something else going on here that was totally lost on me. I wasn’t going to figure that shit out today however and I had shit to do.
I reached for the door handle reminding myself once again that he was just a kid and I couldn’t maim his ass for being stupid, I’m just not wired that way.
“It’s not what you think you know.”
“Okay I’ll bite what’s not what I think it is?”
“Me and Gabriella…”
“There is no you and Gabriella kid get that shit out of your head before you lose it.” Was he trying to piss me the fuck off?
“That’s not what I mean. I meant, I’m not interested in her that way and she isn’t either.” He held his hands up and backed away as I walked back into the room.
“If that’s true why the fuck have you been sniffing around her?”
“You wouldn’t believe me if I told you.” He gave a very sinister laugh for one so young. I walked back and sat across from him.
There was a kind of sadness around him that was hard to miss. I wonder why I never noticed it before? I didn’t want to start feeling sorry for this kid. He’s a pain in my ass.
“Spill it kid.”
“It’s my mother, or the woman who gave birth to me anyway. She threw me away, so when I learned that she was so interested in someone else’s kid I decided to get close to that kid. I wasn’t sure what exactly I had planned, I was too angry when I found out the truth, but then I met Gaby and it was kinda hard to hate her.”
“You’ve lost me kid what the fuck are you talking about?”
“Marion, she’s my mother.” I sat back in my chair.
“That can’t be she’d have had to be…
“Fifteen; she was fifteen when she had me and gave me to an aunt to raise.”
“Damn; still, fifteen is kinda young to be a mom and it’s not like she abandoned you or gave you to strangers, you said she gave you to an aunt?”
“Yes but there were stipulations. My aunt and uncle would raise me as theirs giving her the chance to go out in the world and follow her dreams. I was to be told the truth by a certain age and she was supposed to come back for me when she became a success. She never looked back.
When I found out the truth at sixteen I started plotting then. I did good in school, even went on to her alma mater.
I studied everything there was to know about her so I could one day destroy her. You see, the aunt and uncle grew tired of taking care of the unwanted whelp and they started taking out their frustrations on me.
