68 Baby I Am Ready
âI need to know what happened to my parents. I need to know if there was a foul play involved,â I stated
my thoughts to him without any hesitation.
He was the only one who understood me and I can rely on him.
âAnd what if there was a foul play, then what?â his stare was so deep as if he was reading the details of
my eyes and every little movement of my body.
âThen I will burn that whole pack down,â I grunted in rage.
âThere are many people who are innocent there, what then, what about them?â he was asking me
these questions and although I wasnât understanding the meaning behind them, I was still responding
to each one of them.
âThiago! I need to know who was, directly and indirectly, involved,â I said meaning every word of it.
âWhat if somebody knew that your parents were going to die and didnât help them because of the fear
of someone of great power?â he was asking precise questions. I was beginning to feel like he knew
something.
âIf somebody did know and didnât do anything to save my parents or bring them justice, then I am sorry!
That person is also a criminal. He murdered all the hopes of them surviving or getting justice,â I
answered well. It came right from my heart. Who would even forgive someone who might be the reason
your parents are not with you today?
I wouldnât
I know how I have lived my life without my parents. If only there is someone who knows what happened
to them and didnât come forward to get their culprit behind the bars, then that person doesnât deserve
my forgiveness or sympathy too
âHm! I think you are ready,â Thiago changed his mind and decided it was time we get on board with our
mission.
After practicing one more time, I went downstairs with him. We discussed how we were going to leave
the pack in two hours so that we donât have to think about sneaking out after midnight.
âYou are headed somewhere?â Now that Maynard and Lazlo told me in clear words they were done
with me, they were talking to Thiago freely.
I was surprised how they went from bad-mouthing him to being friendly with him. As for Thiago, he
didnât display much difference. He would always be aware of them talking shit about him but wouldnât
really care. It appeared as if he had more significant issues than dealing with some childish brawls.
âWe are headed to my pack. Since I couldnât show her around last time, we have planned a little trip to
just walk her through the pack before the end of the vacations,â he lied without stuttering. He was busy
packing his bag but it was also a con. We were going to stay in a local motel for at least 3 days even
after we have stolen the files.
âOh!â Maynard smiled but that seemed fake. However, he didnât comment on anything afterward. It did
surprise me that the two were true to their words when they said I am nothing for them anyrnore but
coming from a mate, it hurt me.
I was not mean to them; I did spend time with them. It was just whenever they tried to ruin my time with
Thiago by lying, it got me upset.
Not only with Thiago, but the way they would lie all the time and then I would be at the receiving end of
the anger of the other person just was a bit too much for me.
âAll set to go?â Thiago inquired after he had held his bag over his shoulder
âYeah!â I nodded, watching him pick up my bag and leave the room. I had a few minutes to say
goodbye to these two but they didnât even bother raising their eyes at me and neither did I want to talk
to them after they didnât believe me over and over again.
