•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
I sat on the couch as Cesar and Oscar argued again over something stupid.
"I swear sometimes..." Cesar rolled his eyes as he sat on the sofa, Oscar walking past.
"You lucky Andreas you don't have to live with this little shit" Oscar pointed to Cesar who quickly flipped him off with a smirk on his face. I couldn't help but look down, how wrong they were. Unlike Cesar and Oscar I didn't live with them I lived with my mom, my mom wasn't the best person, she was the opposite of good. The only reason that I was still with her was because she had sole custody of me, custody she'd refuse to give up, she didn't want to relinquish the control that she had over me. Sometimes I'd wonder if that's why she became a mother, did she become one just so that she could have control over someone...
"Andreas" I moved out the way as Cesar moved his hand in front of my face, it was just an instinct to move out the way when possible. Cesar looked at me before back over at Cesar.
"He wasn't going to hit you" Oscar laughed, Cesar joined in, I forced a smile.
"Yeah I know that" I sunk more into the couch as Oscar stood up walking over to his phone. "What are you doing?" I asked as Oscar stood staring at his phone.
"It's just sad eyes, apparently him and a few of the others are meeting at a friends house. His asking if we're going" Oscar looked from me to Cesar.
"I'm done" Cesar stood up before looking down at me. "What do you say Andreas?" I debated the idea.
"What time is it?" I questioned aware that I couldn't get home later then ten.
"Dude it's only eight you'll be fine, plus what's the worst that can happen you get grounded" Cesar laughed as he pulled his coat around him.
"His right I'm mean being grounded isn't that bad" Oscar pushed his phone into his pocket, if only they knew.
"Sure" I pushed myself up, Cesar smiled throwing his arm around me and pulling me with him, Oscar walked behind us locking the door as we left.
"Well if it isn't the Diaz brothers, you've even brought the youngest one" Sad eyes came walking over to us.
"Yeah he finally agreed to come" Cesar laughed walking away from us.
"I promise you won't regret this" I spent most the night being introduced to a bunch of Cesar and Oscars friends, people that Oscar used to hang with and ones Cesar now hung out with. As the night went on people tried to push me to drink different alcoholic beverages but I refused, I didn't want or need any.
"You look how I feel?" I turned to see a girl walked over to me with a glass bottle in her hand.
"What?" I questioned looking at the girl.
"You look like your over it" she laughed standing next to me.
"I guess I am" I forced a smile.
"The names Sofia" she held her hand out to me with a smile.
"Andreas" I took her hand, she quickly shook it before I pulled away looking down.
"So do you know anyone here?" She questioned as she took a drink from the bottle.
"Yeah my brothers" she just nodded looking around the room.
"Who are they?" She then turned to face back to me.
"It doesn't matter" I shrugged, she gave me a questioning look but didn't push it. Usually when I told people who my siblings were they'd ever use me to get closer to them or just drop the conversation as they didn't want to be involved with the Diaz's.
"So anyway tell me about you" I turned to face the girl again. "Come on talk to me" she laughed, I couldn't help but smile.
I don't know how long I spent talking to Sofia, I was completely into the conversation, the only thing that pulled me was someone put their arm around me, I moved shrugging the person off me before turning to face them.
"It's just me" I turned to see Cesar laughing, he looked from me to Sofia. "Hi I'm Andreas brother" Sofia nodded not seeming interested in him.
"See you around Andreas" she smiled at me before leaving.
"Yeah..." I watched as she walked away.
"She's cute" Cesar laughed bringing the can to his mouth and taking a drink. I didn't reply. "Anyway I thought you had to be home by ten" as soon as the words left Cesar's mouth panic started to build up inside of me, I placed the drink down causing it to slightly splash over my hand. I didn't care. I quickly reached into my pocket pulling my phone out, the time was currently 9:50pm, and it was a good twenty minute walk to get back to the house.
"Shit!" I pushed my phone back into my pocket.
"You really don't want to be grounded" Cesar laughed, I took a deep breath trying to calm my nerves, there was no way I'd make it back in time. I pushed passed Cesar and made my way out to the front garden, some people tried to stop me to talk but I ignore them. As I walked down the road I could feel my phone buzzing in my pocket, probably numerous texts from Cesar or Oscar, I didn't care.
I finally reached the house, all the lights seemed to be off, I couldn't tell if this was a good or bad sign. As I walked up the path I pulled my keys out my pocket and walked to the front door, I lifted the keys to open the door, my hands shaking as I tried to put the key into the lock, after a few seconds I finally was able to get it in and unlock the door. I tried to push the door open as quietly as possible, I pulled the keys back out the door and slipped them back into my pocket. I then turned to shut the door, again quietly as possible, just as the door was shut the hall light turned on.
"Where the fuck have you been!" I let out a shaky breath as I turned to face my mother. "I'm fucking talking to you!" She yelled taking a step forward, I took a step back as she took one forward, eventually my back hit the front door. "I told you to be home by fucking ten!" I looked down not daring to make eye contact with her. "Your fucking pathetic!" She then closed the gap.
I finally was able to get to my room, I slammed the door just as she slammed her hand against the door. I used my weight against the door before I reached over and grabbing the chair from my desk and putting it under the door handle.
"You really think you can hide in there!" She yelled again slamming the door. "You forget that I own this house! I own everything that you have! I own you!" She yelled slamming the door again. After a few more minutes of shouting obscenities she eventually left, I listened as she made her way down the hallway. I let out a breath, I didn't even know that I had been holding it. I pushed myself off my bedroom door and made my way over to the bag I had hidden in the bottom of my closet, I pulled it out catching my reflection in the mirror. I turned to take my reflection in properly, a bruise had started to form under my eye and my lip was cut, I couldn't help but trace the bruise and cut, it definitely wasn't the worse that had happened to me. I knew I could probably fight back but she's my mom I don't want to hurt her, I mean how is it still possible to care for someone who does this shit. I took a sigh as I walked away from the mirror picking the bag up and walking over to the window. The house that I live in or lived in was only one story so it was easy to slip out the window. I pushed the window up trying to be as quiet as possible, I know she probably wouldn't hear it but I wasn't going to risk it. After the window was fully open I was able to slip out, I put the bag out first then climbed out again. I quietly made my way around the house and started to walk down the road, I had no idea where to go, I couldn't go to Cesar's and Oscars but that would be to obvious. I slowly walked the streets keeping my head down, after a about an hour I finally found a small place that seemed to be open. I let out a sigh as I entered the place walking to the closest table, as I walked in I got a few questioning stares but just decided to ignore them. After a few more minutes a waiter came over.
"Can I get you something" he smiled. If I didn't get something they might kick me out.
"Just a coffee" I simply said relaxing into the plastic chair. A few minutes passed and the waiter came walking back over placing the coffee down on the table. "How much is it?" I questioned reaching into my pocket.
"It's on the house" he turned and walked back to the serving area, as he walked passed a few other servers seemed to say something to him but I couldn't hear, I turned to face the coffee placing my hands on it, the coffee slowly heated my hands.
I slowly drank my coffee hoping to buy myself more time to think about what to do.
"Hey" someone placed their hand on my shoulder, I quickly moved the shoulder knocking the now empty coffee. "Sorry" I turned to see Cesar stood with a concerned look on his face. Cesar studied my face as he sat opposite me, he face went from concern to anger. "Who the hell did this?" He questioned trying not to yell. I didn't reply, I just looked down. "Andreas talk to me" Cesar's voice became softer as he spoke, tears started to build in my eyes as I tried to push them down. "Come on Andreas, I'm your brother you can tell me anything" I looked back up as the tears built up again.
"It was...it was..." I couldn't get the words out, Cesar gave me a reassuring. I knew I couldn't keep this a secret anymore. "It was my mom" I finally got out, shock crossed Cesar's face but it was quickly gone.
"It's okay me and Oscar will sort it" I looked up messing with the coffee cup. "Come on let's get you home" I looked up as Cesar spoke. "Oscars and mine" he quickly added, Cesar stood up grabbing my bag and leaving. Cesar opened the door allowing me to walk out.
"Thank you Cesar"
"I'm your my brother"
