Higher Security

Chapter 20: Capturing Him 1

'Amazing grace how sweet...' I remembed the last time i heard that song,barely hearing the words,  how it turned into a lullabye i would hum to sleep, feeling the sensual feeling of peace.
Its strange the weather always seems to shift from shine, to rain, perhaps even it can feel the gloom too. Tonny's funeral day came and went, along with people i could only recognise as strangers, except a man who i recognised as his estranged father. Looks like he drove all the way from Japan, wish he'd done that for his graduation too. I also saw some folk i didnt know existed in his life. Why was i looking at them? Just to get my mind off everything. My last respects didnt make it any better. If it wasnt for his...damaged body, i wouldnt have believed it, he was really gone. A few weeks after his burial and  found myself back at his grave. 'Here lies the remains of Anthony Dawson.' I read the inscriptions. I blinked away a tear. 'Hey you, look what i brought. Your favourite flowers which you always brought for me. Did you know its called a lady slippr orchid, im sure you didn't?' I took a huge breath. 'Tomorrow is his trial. Once again, I'll be looking at his face.' I shoved off the anger and smiled. 'Dont worry, I'll come to tell you everything that happens. I promise to get him a life sentence, even death will be heaven for him, he will rot there.'  I couldnt shake off the feeling that someone was watching me, brought me back to when i was with my parents. Afte a while of talking, i left and drove back. I hadnt realised how hard it would be to lose someone. I drifted and made a  turn.

Meanwhile

A deep guffaw filled the room. People exchanged glances but none dared to say a word. 'Isnt this something, my favourite nephew in jail.' He rose from his seat and walked to a picture of a man who brewed of dominance just by looking at his eyes, dawning upon its observer. The old man couldnt help the shiver he felt down his spine which irked him to his core. He sneared through his teeth. 'I told you you'd pay. I will make your entire family suffer, and this is the beginning.' Just then a man burst into the room. Only one person dares to do that. 'Curse your mother's womb child, dont you knock.' The young man just shrugged, sinking his hands into his pockets. 'Curse the father instead.' He replied. The old man walked to him taking steps that would make an ordinary make shriek, except this man. 'Is that anyway to speak to your father?' 'Just because you fucked my mother doesnt make you my father Anto...' 'Javier!!' A hot slap landed on his face. He clenched his jaws and shot back at his father who couldnt hide the disappointment in his eyes but quickly looked away, returning to his cold look. 'Did you come all this way to ruin my mood?' 'Im afraid not, i did what you asked,came for whats mine.' Antonio ran his hands on his face. 'Whereever i went wrong with you.?' 'That was the deal, get him in jail an...' 'I know what we agreed on, listen my boy' Javier what was coming. 'Im not having any 'ya shit oldm..' 'Careful, i can do worse than that bullet.' He turned his eyes to the band aided wound. Javier swallowed hard. 'To think i though you were smart...That bitch has bigger balls than you.' Javier clenched his fists tight. Now, you will get more than that lil reward you wanted. With him gone, we have the entire empire to ourselves.' He turned slyly. 'And guess who's taking his place.' Javier couldnt help but smile too. He couldnt stand his father, but the thought of taking over the mighty
Romero Luz De La Luna (Romero Moonlight) a dynasty as one of the best in the world, made him very very happy. He grinned at the thought and his father thought,  'thats it, thats my boy.'
