25 For you (2/2)

-I do; Layla, they have got us. C'mon move..

-Jerry!? What should I do?

-...

-(sobbing)..

-Give me the bag.

-Layla? Hey? Look at me,- I knew I was not making it any easy no matter how much I tried. Maybe thedaily dose of adrenaline rush I was lusting for, the thrill of chase or excitement of running away from some guys packing a bullet with my name engraved were far fetched ideas for reliving the past. While having no idea of why they were after me I felt so helpless. When the reality starts to come after us, the mind tries to dig up any hopes it can find, which results in our actions. The face of Jane came in first in my head followed by my parents and surprisingly enough Selina's too. I couldn't let them down.

-Here is the bag.

-Let's hope I was right,- Even in the darkest moment there's always a light hidden somewhere. Mom would say that when we faced crisis.

My body was turning cold and stiff inside but I couldn't let any weakness hold me back.

-...

-...- Both of them were probably aware of our little exchange. They were ready to make their move waiting on us.

-Hey? Remember how I would talk about running away from here? I still want to do it. But,- I couldn't finish. All of a sudden my lips were sealed. It felt familiar. The warmth was of the same person who once came to me, a tough man running away from the inseparable loneliness after losing someone he had loved the most. I embraced him just as I had in past.

We kissed...I felt him coursing through my being.

-We will; together as a family. Before that let's take care of our visitors.
