I didn't understand anything.

The others dispersed. I heard some who didn't want to be involved in the conflict. I took my shoelace and I quickly did my shoelace again. Then I headed home.

But a hand grabbed my arm.
Dio had a look of anger and... -worry?-

"Where the fuck are you going?"
I took his hand out of my arm.
"Where the hell do you want me to go, you idiot! I'm going to your-"
Before I could finish my sentence, he violently pulled me towards him.

"You BETTER not go home and endanger my mother."

His pupils were dilated. His eyes were really cat's eyes. His gaze was intimidating but also mesmerizing... captivating... The warm color of the sunset made them even more beautiful. It warmed me to see them frozen on my dark-brown eyes...
I was totally lost in his eyes...

He frowned.
-oopsy!-

"DO YOU HEAR WHAT I SAY, STUPID CUNT?!!"

"Huh? Oh! Y-Yes!"

Y/N,focus...!

"Take responsibility for your actions. This is not your country, the laws of ghettos are not the same as your golden castle."
He let me go.

What does he mean by assuming...?

"But I have to go home and help your mother!"

He shook his hand and told me to give up.

Great... I really don't know how to make friends...

A boy of the group approached me.

"You better go hide, girl. That's my advice, I don't want any trouble with you."

Then all eyes are directed to the other side of the street.

"He's fool! He brought them!"

"He's not really afraid of anything this guy!"

"Let's get out of here, guys!"

I followed the movement with my eyes.

This guy Kenny came back with... bottles?

The crowd scattered all over the place.

I did the same. I could feel that this time, I was going to be less clever.

I didn't even have time to reach the other side of the street that a huge bomb went off at my foot.

What the hell is that?!

The other boys started running.
I didn't know where I was going.
I walked into an alley where there were dumpsters.

"So the bitch you are hiding? You wanted to play the man and now you do not assume? Show me your head before I blow it up!"
His voice came closer.

Come on, Y/N. Hide!

I climbed onto a big garbage can and snuck into it.
It stank. But besides, I felt like I wasn't alone in it...
I pulled out a tights to wrap it around my foot. It hurts me but I think it's not very serious. I'd already be curled up if the molotov cocktail had fallen on my foot.

I've been in this position for a very long time, with rats...

A few long hours later...

I can't hear them screaming anymore. I slowly opened the dumpster flap.
The sun was setting.
"I better find my way back to the Brando house."
Discreetly, I found the path that led to the flower field.

They were still there. Kenny had a bandage around his neck.
The sun gave way to the moon but it's bright enough to make me spot it!
How am I going to get through without him seeing me?!
