The Bad Boy's.....What?
The Bad Boy's.....What?
Prologue:
Goodbye.
One word with different meanings. It could mean âsee you later,â âsee you tomorrow,â or âsee you in a while.â It can also mean goodbye forever.
For example, when I left my house today and told the housekeeper goodbye I meant it in as a see you after school. Never did I think Iâd end up in the situation in which I am now in. You see, I have dealt a lot with that word, goodbye.
Six years ago when I bid my parents adieu on their business trip I was expecting them to come back. I didnât expect a tall man in uniform to come knocking on the mansionâs door with the unbearable news of my parentsâ demise. It was at that time that I secluded myself into a shell of the lively girl I used to be. I mean, Iâm still the same person but I donât let many people in.
In school Iâm known as Khloe âthe nerdâ Mason. Who cares, I certainly donât pay attention to the comments that run the rumor mill at school. People make fun of you for actually going to school to learn and wanting to educate yourself, okay. Sure, I donât need a career I have plenty of money that I will inherit in a couple of months when I turn eighteen but my parents loved what they did and I want to find something equally as fulfilling.
In school, Iâm not only a nerd but I think you could call me the outcast as well, people take too much time envying what others have that they turn it into hate. You may find this preposterous but yes, I am shunned because I have more money than others.
So, here I was another day and another round of idiotic comments that donât even make sense because Iâm sure calling the nerd âstupidâ is very creative, note the sarcasm. I decided that I needed to clear my mind after school, so I went for a walk. There are two parts in this town, the âlower classâ and upper classâ which is really stupid no one is extremely poor or extremely rich, well, except for me. I own the only mansion in the neighborhood but my parents chose to live here.
I hadnât notice my bearings as I walked, I was too lost in thought. I furrow my eyebrows as the street becomes quieter and thatâs when I notice dark has completely fallen upon me. People have made their way home and are now enjoying the comfort of their house. I pull my hoodie over my head and hug it closer to my body as the temperature descends with the sun.
After walking for a while I begin to grow weary, I may be the schoolâs nerd but when it comes to directions I mine as well be a mathlete learning to play football. Utterly confusing. My lungs are practically screaming for much needed air.
I come to a stop in a secluded spot and lean against the wall trying to even my erratic breathing. My head snaps up to my right as a door bangs open in the alley that I apparently was standing in. Two men stagger out throwing punches at the other. Â I hold my breath trying to remain unseen, invisibility donât fail me now. Three more men come out to watch the event unravel. Well, I thought they were men, but they are indeed younger. There I say my age. Wow, who knew gangsters came in different shapes and sizes.
As all of this is unraveling I hear a speeding car to my left and I turn to face a black tinted car. They come to a complete stop in the alley that I was standing in. I sink further into the wall if thatâs even possible. The three Adonisâs face turn towards our direction but Iâm glad to say no one is looking directly at me.
âThey came for Lucy!â a man frantically tells the younger guys. That snaps them out of their macho stare down causing them to hurry inside, probably to go check on this Lucy person. For some reason, I scoot down to my right, having the eerie feeling that the people in the car arenât so nice. Maybe the others know about a thing called mercy.
I am now so thankful for that flickering street light because itâs helping in keeping me concealed. In what seems like seconds later the three guys come out with guns and one holding some sort of package and thatâs when the ones in the black car decide to come out. Is this like the door to Hogwarts and I didnât get memo? I shake my head from my thoughts and focus in on the action once again.
It looks like itâs all happening in slow motion when in reality everything is going so fast. The guys that came from inside begin to chase the other ones down but the leader seems to be looking around frantically. I wish I could say what he looks like but itâs too dark to make out any features. As the streetlight flickers on again he takes notice of my figure trying to remain concealed.
He seems to debate with himself on something but makes a quick decision, a decision that may have changed my life forever. He runs towards me and I back myself further into the wall.
âHere hold this,â I canât see his eyes, all I know is that he is very tall. I look down at the bundle he put in my arms and immediately shake my head assuming itâs some sort of drug package.
âYou will take this,â his voice leaves no room for argument. Itâs as if he has authority and a shiver runs down my spine. I will never forget that voice.
âCome on!â I hear the othersâ screams. He looks back and turns one last time bending down to the package in my hand.
âI love you, goodbye Lucy,â I tilt my head in confusion but heâs already gone. What kind of drug lord names their drug packages?
I look down at âLucyâ and move the blankets a bit to the side. My eyes widen at the not so little package, itâs not even a thing.
When he said goodbye I didnât know if he meant it as in âIâll be right backâ or âIâll see you tomorrowâ. Â I stood there holding the blanket close to me.
âGo!â he turns back screaming and I ran, well as much running as one can do.
This is how I was stuck with the bad boyâsâ¦..what?
Drugs?
Gun?
No, this is how I ended up with the bad boyâs baby. I hold the little girl closer to me, shielding her from the cold weather.
âDonât worry Lucy, Iâll keep you safe,â I place a kiss on her forehead and she giggles. As if she understood, a bond is formed.
