It had been almost an hour since they had taken Reggie, and my pulse was hammering. I was at my own house, incredibly frightened, and couldn't even sit on a surface. We must plan an appropriate and dignified funeral for Jinx.
I was still too psychologically unbalanced to realise what was going on when Dad strolled by me interrupting him I spoke
"Hey, I need you to listen; I need Reggie out of that hell you dumped him in."
"Are you insane, or did some screws loosen within your head? We've previously discussed it and reached an agreement. He had to have surrendered by now."
I dropped myself to my knees, tears left like floods from my eyes. Dad held me by my shoulders.
"What the fuck is happening with you lately miyoko? This isn't the same girl I raised. Please don't give me any hint that you were into him or something."
"We fucked each other last night dad, I can't shift my attention from him, I can't get him out of my eyes, skin, mind, and soul."
I just spoke all the ugly truth in front of dad throwing him into an existential crisis.
"You still haven't evolved miyoko, you were always stuck then and there with hopelessness to move further. Your irresistibility to lust was the reason Kazui-"
"Enough dad!! Stop it you are being as disgusting as always he was not at all responsible, it was your temper!! You are the creator of hell and the one to suffer in the same."
*door slammed heavily*
But this time it was my fault.
I cranked up the engine and drove directly to Gabriel's house; he lived in a bar for the last 25 years.
*annoying country music in the background.*
The place was so dark I couldn't see my limbs. As I guessed he was laying in the usual position as I saw him 6 years back for the first time.
"Gabrielle, listen before speaking, I need your help, I thought of no other person than you please forget about the past I beg you."
"Speak," he commanded firmly.
I told him everything right away, and he dialled certain numbers, but my breathing doesn't seem to slow down.
"What did he say". I huffed heavily.
"Listen, Miyoko, just sit down and slowly I will take you out of this," Gabrielle murmured, caressing both my cheeks.
"I need to go meet one individual for the same thing; you stay here."
"No, I'll come with you! My anxiety will overwhelm me."
"Fine"
We walked out from that horrible pub, and when we arrived at his car, an ancient Mazda, he wrapped his hand around my waist and unlocked the side door.
"What!"
"Shit I'm sorry, I was just-"
"Forget it, just drive away," I said
I knew it wasn't intentional, he always opened the door for me while resting his hand on my waist, it was just in his genes.
"We went to a random drug lord, and then he directly sorted the issue with a higher-ranked alliance."
"Done," the lord said
"Thanks a lot, sir, we hope to return the favour someday."
Gabrielle looked at me and smiled, he stated
"So he'll be released in about half an hour or so, and you're very lucky they don't have any proof to register the case but he's banned to leave the town and has to attend the trials."
I heaved a sigh of relief
"I don't care if they put him to prison, Gabrielle but I can't see suffering, Jeffery is a psycho maniac he would have abominably-"
I sobbed so hard the words weren't even flowing.
Gabrielle hugged me, the warmth I needed was finally captured. It was the cold of the autumn attacking mercilessly.
I got inside his car, and
"Here, grab this on,"
"Not needed thanks".
"I could see your lips fluttering like the fish when it's caught. Stop being silly."
I took it, he offered his long coat the one like sherlock.
When I wore it, it stinks of his sweat, I got a whole reel that started playing inside my head, the nostalgia bashed in, right from the beginning, my most memorable moments in between and how it came to an end.
"Eww, your gross sweat's intensity is too high"
His jacket smelled so good I was mesmerized each time. I never told him that. always made disgusting comments about his sweaty stinks and I did the same thing today.
He turned the engine on, and we went straight to the station, my anxiety began to stick to my throat like an intense sob about to explode.
"How will be Reggie when I see him, will he be at least able to walk over to me and hug me."
"I hope the boy's okay, but I don't think we will see him in a good health, I'm just preparing you miyoko so that it shouldn't hurt you by the unexpectedness."
"Custodial torchers are the most horrible actions performed in gastovik, even worst than murdering someone".
More than dread, I felt wrath growing inside me, and I slammed the double door so hard that the glass broke from the side.
"Ma'am that will be counted as a violating offence on police headquarters, you are subjected to"
"You piece of shit, If you didn't stop that ugly mouth, I will shove this piece of glass door in your nuts disconnecting them from their source and gift wrap them to your wife."
"I'm so sorry officer, please understand the situation we'll get back to you." Said, Gabrielle
"Where are you going miyoko, we don't where they took him."
"I'll find him! Wait!! Where's that motherfucking Jeffery! Give me your phone Gabrielle, I forgot mine at the home."
"I don't have his num-"
"What's happening on here?" a gruff voice said from behind me.
And here is none other than Holster, the last person I hoped to encounter.
"Sir, we've come to take our friend home; he's been ordered released," said Gabrielle
"Waiting room is made for you scums. Should've used your eyes"
"Shut the fuck up! I don't take shit from anyone, even a tangled ball of pubes looks better than you."
"Hey, miyoko it's alright! Reggie is coming let's wait for him in the waiting room."
The other officer elder officer came and said with an awkward expression, I knew something was wrong as the vibe told me,
We rushed where he took us, and Reggie was just lying helpless his eyes seemed open but his mind and body were completely torn apart. Nobody called for help, they left him to die there alone. He bleed from every single visible thing, in that instance the memory of him lying in my bedsheets and smiling while I was getting dressed flashed before me.
I couldn't manage the anguish, I was fatigued from sobbing, and my body didn't have the strength to combat it. When I closed my eyes, a thick nauseous sensation came over me.
I dashed into the toilet and let my gut empty; I hadn't felt this much trauma in years. Reggie lying there without any hope reminded me of Kazui. Gabrielle approached from behind and rubbed my back.
"I just can't take it anymore, Gaby, I just need a break, I'm exhausted, and there are no tears left for me to weep. I really need a break."
"He's alright, Miyoko, I phoned an ambulance. I couldn't believe that Dickhead thought of letting this poor lad die when he had nobody on his back. I haven't even touched Ulrich because of you. I would've-"
"shuush, thank you very much gaby, you are the Messiah, please forgive me for all the past events that have affected you."
"What past, I don't even recall what I did yesterday honestly".
"Oh, but you remember to slit my father's neck, don't you?"He began to smile.The ambulance arrived 10 minutes later, and we eventually brought him to the hospital.
