My Dad's Friend: 43
"Here's your drink"
I lifted my head at the voice and accepted the cup of coffee from Jarvis who sat on the opposite side of me on the table. I took a sip and let the herby taste gush freely down my throat. I placed it down on the table and went back to scribbling on my notebook, blocking out my surrounding as I solved the math equation again and again and for the nth time, I got it inaccurately, I grunted, throwing the pen away and pushed the books away from me, ignoring the anxious look Jarvis was giving me.
I threw my head back and wiped my face with my palms, breathing harshly in vexation. I grabbed the cup of coffee and gulped the warm liquid down my throat.
"Calm down man" Jarvis enunciated as I put the cup down with a loud thud. Fortunately for it, it didn't break.
"I can't do it," I announced, scowling at the Notebook that seemed to be my greatest foe at the moment.

Unhurriedly, my hand lifted to knock on the door but again, it got hung in the air. Instantly, my hand plunged at my side and a hefty sigh left my mouth. Was I going to do it? Of course, I was, it was why I came here in the first place.Would he exonerate me?Sadly, my head dropped drastically, my feet suddenly coming off more intriguing than my life at the moment. I bit my bottom lips when I felt them start to wobble again. Oh God, what was awry with me, why was I getting so volatile?I sighed again, my hand went up to knock but the door suddenly opened and my breath fixed, my heart ceased for a second and my hand was caught in the air.There he was, the man that had given me wakeful nights, looking so...so...troubled?His broad form seemed flimsy, even though he was wearing glasses, I could see the sourness in his eyes, the bags that were so apparent, his face was worn ou

"I have three sisters, and two brothers, Gabriel is younger than me. My parents used to rule the biggest Mafia in Mexico, we did everything illegal and its leadership is passed from father to son, the strongest and bravest son, it doesn't matter who's the oldest or the youngest. As soon as we get to the age of seven, we are exposed to the underworld, taught everything we needed to know about survival, undergo training, and at fourteen, we can finally have our first kill. It was scary and they got everything recorded and let us watch the type of monsters that we are but they didn't let us recover, we were exposed to a battlefield where we killed to survive, We killed without blinking. I met Jean and Lyndon at fifteen, they were siblings and were from another mafia, a smaller one. I tried keeping Gabriel away when he got to fourteen, I didn't want him to be part of our messed up world, I agreed to do anything as long as he wasn't exposed to killing at that age which I paid the u

Picking up an apron, I hung it over my neck and tied the strings around my waist, and fold up my imaginary sleeves before wheeling around with a wide grin on my face. "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Tristan's Kitchen...""That sounds awful, man" Jarvis snickered from where he stood at the edge of the counter, a chart in hand. I waved him off."Shut it, Jarvis, this is my kitchen and today we are going to make a special delicacy, a Mexican dish taught to me by my wonderful boyfriend""That's gross" Jarvis gagged and I glared at him and he chuckled while I continued."Am planning on making Sean lunch and you won't ruin it for me, Jarvis" I pointed at him accusingly and he lifted his hands in surrender before chuckling again. I walked over to the counter where different kinds of food ingredients lay. "Do we have and did everything?"Jarvis rolled his eyes before holding up the cha

"Since you would be having an extra shift today, I decided to make you something" I tried to lighten the mood as I placed the lunch box on the table and shifted it towards him, he stared at it before his grey eyes went up to meet mine and his lips curved into a teasing smile and his gaze averted to my hands, I consciously hid them behind my back, away from his sight."You hurt yourself trying to make this, didn't you?" He inquired and I chuckled nervously."It's nothing serious, nothing to worry about" I quickly opened the lunch box and grinned widely, proud that I did some out but Sean wasn't staring at the food, he was gazing at my fingers that had blisters from burnt. I watched as he stood up from his seat and walked around the table to my side, he grabbed my hand and I flinch at the pinch that shot through me."It's fine," I said, trying to draw back my hand but he held it firm and grabbed me over to his chair, he sa

My elbow was mashed against the window as the car moved on the road, while the back of my fingers was clasped against my lips, relinquished in my thoughts. I embezzled a side glance at the driver of the car. His gaze was welded on the road, his hands moving on the wheels and his expression was barren, something similar to what I always see on Sean but less concrete.I was succumbing in anticipation and I could tell Jarvis was not any better, we both loathed being clueless about a situation and Gabriel had chosen to do just that since he picked us up from the University, we had been on the road for more than thirty minutes and every second that ratified by felt like it was squirming and felt like misery and I couldn't wait to get out of it.Another minute went by and only the breathings of three men could be felt in the car, the anxiety fixed, thickening the air around us, it was starting to feel rather suffocating and I was getting depleted

I ignored the intense gaze Sean was giving me as I wrapped his knuckles with a bandage and dried his hair with a towel. It had been more than an hour since we came back and I made him take a shower and sat him down on the toilet and cleaned his injuries without saying a word while he continued to gawk down at me and finally, he spoke."You are mad at me"Was I mad?Oh yes, I was mad but it wasn't enough to suppress the sadness I felt in my chest, knowing I would have lost him if we had arrived later."No" I answered, putting the towel away as I finished drying his wet hair. I wheeled to leave the bathroom but he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back and I ended up falling on his lap and his hands circled my waist, holding and trapping me in place."Am sorry""Am disappointed Sean" I spoke. How could he do that? Lyndon nearly died, as much as the guy was a

«One Year Later»"Fellow classmates, today's an important day in all of our lives. We are gathered here to celebrate more than a decade of yearning, learning, we are shrouded by the people who taught and inspired us throughout our lives, parents, family members, and teachers..."Suddenly, he stopped skimming and looked up at me and I raised an eyebrow."Why the fuck do I have to do this?" Jarvis grunted and he pushed the notebook away from him to my side and rested his body back with a garish tiff and crossed his arms over his chest."I thought you were happy, we are finishing man, I can't wait to get out of this shithole" I grinned, picking up the book."We still have a month to do this shit, why do we have to start preparing now. I could do this the day before graduation"I eyed him. "you seem grumpy today, did Levi not fuck

"You gave him your address?!" I squealed in anger for the nth time since I entered the apartment and my boyfriend delivered the outrageous notification.Sean looked from his papers and stared at me through his glasses. He shrugged at my outburst. "He's a good kid"I placed my hands on my hips. "A good kid that has a crush on you"He shrugged again. "It's just an infatuation, it doesn't mean anything" he went back to reading his papers, leaving me fussing and his relaxed temperament was not helping me! Then he looked up at me and smirked teasingly. "Don't tell me you're jealous?"I scoffed. "I have nothing to be jealous of""Then you should have no dilemma with Dean showing up this weekend, I was intending on taking him out for dinner"Oh, he was exercising me, trying to wake up a sleeping dog and he did. "WHAT!?" I exploded."Is it not en
