P.O.V: Oliver.
I kneel before this old demon who has just asked me to lick his stinking toes.
How did it get to this?...
Isn't this the same man that always picked me up and played with me when I was younger?
Isn't this the same man who I took as a father figure after I lost mine?
All that love, all that care, was it all fake?
I bow my head, my eyes go dark.
I glance at his toes one more time...
Do I really have to?
No, I have to...
For mama, for the only love I have left in this world...
Slowly I began crawling towards this man who sat balanced in his chair before me.
His legs outstretched as if offering his slave a meal.
I got close, so close I could percieve the foul stench off his feet.
Just do it Oliver, do it and get it off with, do it for mama, for mother...
I close my eyes as I slowly let out my tongue.
Slowly my tongue approaches his toes and just as I was about to meet it he kicks me in the forehead with his untrimmed toes.
He laughs hysterically as I fall backwards with my left hand over my head.
As I take of my hand to look at my palm I see blood.
His toe nail had cut my forehead as he kicked me.
This...
Hopefully he's happy and gives me what I came for.
"Were you actually going to do that? the Almighty Young Master of G&O Tech Cooperation licking my toes??...Hahahaha..." He says as he continues laughing and mocking.
"Damn, you've really fallen this low? well anyways, get out of my house!" He says suddenly.
"Huh??" I utter in confusion.
"Hmmm? Did I stutter? I said get out of my house, now!"
"Huh? b...but you said..." I stammer.
"I said what?" He asks.
"You said you'd give me the money if I..." I say with my heart up in my throat.
"Yh yh but you didn't did you? haaah... you are stressing me young man, guards, see him out." He says as he gets off his seat.
He begins walking towards the stairs as three guards grab me.
I was at first dazed.
'This can't be happening to me' I thought to myself.
"You filthy bastard, was everything you did all an act?
what of your brotherhood with my father!?
what of the oath you took to look after me during my father's funeral?
what of all the love and affection you showed!?" I yell at the man as the guards struggle to pull me out.
I was crazed and angry.
"Answer me when I am speaking to you, you old faggot!!" I yell again.
"If my mother dies her blood is on your hand! You hear me!?" I continue yelling and at that point he stopped.
He stops in his ascent up the stairs and with a disgusting smile he slowly turns as he says;
"It wouldn't be the first..."
I was left speechless as I was dragged outside and thrown out the gate.
The guards mocked me as I laid on the cold ground dazed.
I was tired, weak, exhausted...
I haven't eaten today, the last thing I ate was a little loaf of bread Ariel stole from a shop for me yesterday morning.
Yesterday Morning was the last time I ate anything.
I'm tired mum, I've tried everything, I've gone everywhere, no one is answering me, what could we have done to deserve this?
What should I do??
*RING RING*
My phone rings in my pocket.
I bring out the little battered up phone.
It was Ariel.
I was hesitant to pick because how was I supposed to tell her I couldn't get anything, not even a dollar.
But still she was with my mother in the hospital, I had to pick.
I pick as I slowly take the phone to my ear.
Before I could even speak I hear Ariel crying out...
"Oliver where are you!? Come now, mother... mother is..." She cries out as she continues sobbing.
Immediately I hear this I sit up.
I who was tired suddenly burst up to to my feet.
Where the energy came from I do not know but I began sprinting towards the hospital which was approximately 1km away.
I ran with every possible energy I could muster.
Through the darkness and through corners until I made it to the highway.
Running through the road I almost got run over by a car.
I jumped a little thereby causing my body to roll on the car when it hit me.
I had no time to check for injuries, I got up and continued running at full speed.
After about six minutes I arrive at the hospital sweating and panting heavily.
As I enter and go up the stairs towards the ward my mother was in I had one prayer in mind.
"Please let her be ok, please let her be ok, please let her be ok..."
I get to the passage way and I see Ariel standing outside sobbing with her hand over her mouth.
"Whats going on?" I ask.
"Mother, she..." She stutters as she points inside the ward.
My gaze slowly turns into the ward.
I see a doctor and nurses around her.
They were saying somethings I couldn't quite understand.
Unconsciously I began walking into the ward.
"Sorry Sir but you can't be here right now please..." A nurse says as she stops me and slams the door in my face.
I could do nothing but watch through the glass as my mother laid there, not moving, with the nurses trying to do something I didn't understand.
I waited anxiously with Ariel.
After about seven minutes the door opens and the doctor slowly comes outside.
I don't know why but I was trying not to make meaning of the sad look on his face.
My heart began racing fast as his lips began to move.
"I'm sorry, she didn't make it."
As those words left his mouth my head got fuzzy.
Ariel passed out beside me but I couldn't even try to catch her.
I couldn't think of anything at that point.
Nurses ran to check on her as I stood staring blankly into the air...
I slowly walk towards the ward.
Slowly, every step feeling incredibly heavy I make my way into the ward.
My eyes began tearing up as I saw the face of my mother laying lifeless on the bed.
"Oliver?.." A voice called out to me.
A voice I knew too well, a voice I use to smile to but now disgusted me to the core.
I turn my head slowly, my expression filled with hate, anger and sadness.
My eyes meet the eyes of who had called me...
Of course, it was Diana...
