Mister Grumpy Hockey Star Is My Secret Boyfriend 148
148. LUTHER I sit in the confinement for another six hours, too angry to even drink the water that they brought to me. This was a meticulous plan, because they know that I don't have the money to leave this place. How long do they intend to keep me here? I don't have fifty thousand dollars lying around, and I need to get out here to help mum..."Hey," I stand up, clutching the metal rods. "I want to make my phone call now!" The Officer, who has been patiently waiting around me, walks to me with a wicked smirk on his face. "Is that so? Have you suddenly gotten the money to pay for the bail?" "It's my right to make a phone call," I tell him. "It's not your business if I have gotten the money or not." ****I don't have a long list of emergency contacts to phone whenever I get into trouble, in fact I know I have to be at the edge of death before I call Marlon to help me, but I decided to call someone else. Maybelline. It's quite an inconvenience to call her with my problems, but

147. LUTHER The feeling of standing at a crossroad. I feel like I could split myself into two halves, so that I can use one part to look for my mother, and the second to look for Bernice. Bernice still hasn't been found, and she also hasn't said anything, and that's the scariest part. I can't even sit still in my house, and yet I'm so lost on what to do. I don't expect for the door bell to chime, but it brings about great relief for me. William has definitely found one person, and he has brought some good news for me. As I rush in to answer the door, my excitement goes down the drain when I see that it's just an unknown man. He is in a beige jacket and black trousers. Definitely not in a police uniform, but I can definitely tell that he is a cop. "Luther Wayne?" He asks. "Yeah?" Something tingles in the back of my head. "My name is officer –" Bang! I shut the door straight in his face and started to back away into the house, hearing my heart thumping like a drum in my ches

146. JANAE "Good morning, Mrs Cooper," a cup of coffee so strong that the smell hits my nose as they set it on the table. I sit up, rubbing my eyes as I look from my left to my right. I didn't sleep a wink, so that means that I look and feel like shit. "My son..." My charred lips move. "Like I said, an officer will visit him this morning. We have a lot to do, Mrs Cooper, so let's get into it." They are not as friendly as they were yesterday, but that's not even the most bothersome part of this entire thing. I finally sit down, and raise the coffee to my lips. They are both seated facing towards me, flipping through the huge files in front of me. "So, Mrs Cooper, we will start by reading your rights..." He goes on reciting the vomit-inducing statement, before flipping through some pages again. "Okay, so, can we go at this head first? You can start by telling us about the secret accounts you stashed the money away in." My hands spread on the table, palms facing up. "What fucki

145. JANAE They didn't come with guns, or sirens, or anything to wake the neighbors up at this ungodly hour, instead they hold my shoulder as they led me out of the house. It is like a dream, not even the cold air on my face can convince me otherwise. "M–my son," I croak. "I need to speak to him, I need to explain..." "Don't worry, Mrs Cooper. Everything will be alright. Come with us in the car, while my partner goes to speak with your son." At least they don't bring those cold metallic cuffs that I have been dreading for ten years. They just take me to their unmarked car and put me in it. Only one of the officers gets into the car, while the other goes back into the house to speak to Luther. I hold my breath, waiting for my baby boy to burst through the door, screaming for his mother to be freed. That's definitely going to get the attention of the neighbors, and I can't help but feel so sorry for him. I'm so pathetic. I wish I had been able to give a better life to Luther..

144. JANAE I push my trolley down the aisle in the superstore, throwing in a few things inside. I just came in here to grab a few boxes, because in the middle of boxing, I realized that I didn't have enough. I'm almost done with packing, since we don't have a lot of stuff that are sentimental to us, but Luther and my rooms are next. I tear off the wrap from a bar of chocolate as I munch on it, pushing the trolley forward with my leg. I see this giant bowl of ice cream through the see-through glass door of the refrigerator, and it makes me smile. Luther has been going through a lot since we have only a few hours left in Densberry, so maybe this is going to be something to cheer him up. I take the ice cream, a couple more goodies, and I'm all set to pay at the front. It's a fairly long line, so I just put my air pods in place and try to wait it out without going into a brief depression myself. I day dream about the next town we are going to, and how Luther is going to get the s

143. LUTHER "Okay, let's go," William closes the door loudly and drives off. "Wait, we don't even have a plan yet.""Are you like a hundred percent sure she saw you yesterday, though?" William asks. My hand rubs my forehead, as if I am about to have a headache or something. "I know I wasn't hallucinating, I saw her by the door, and that look she had in her eyes..." My eyes press shut. "She saw me, she definitely saw me.""If she did, then why hasn't she gone on top of a mountain to scream about it? I mean no offense, but Bernice kind of absolutely hates you right now," Will says."Yeah, no shit." I cringe, I don't want to even think about that right now. "It's even scarier that she hasn't said anything to anyone. Knowing Bernice, she is probably going to go for blood. I'm not scared for myself, just Marlon," I see William's jaw tighten as he makes a turn down to join the traffic. "And Marlon? Have you heard anything from him?" William murmurs. I turned my phone off because I do

LUTHER The words get all entwined and I can't come up with a good enough lie to tell my mother, and she rolls her eyes at me. "Oh, Luther, do you think I was born yesterday? Are you trying to lie to me?" "I'm not trying to lie, mum. Maybe it was the wind that you heard. Sometimes, when it's a l

MARLON I had no idea that my father came back into the country last night. I thought I heard Maybelline squeaking when she welcomed him back home, but I thought that it was just a dream. Until I look out of the window and watch the staff greeting him, and a scowl leaves my lips. It's not like I

LUTHER I was just going to teach Marlon a little lesson for treating me so coldly, but what I didn't expect is for that single act to send both of us into the nurse's office. Marlon has suffered a very terrible black eye, and he can't even open it. It's growing bigger and bigger, like a ball.

LUTHER Standing in front of the Hudson mansion, this is the last place I would want to be right now. I adjust the sleeves of my leather jacket before raising my hand to ring the bell. I haven't brought any flowers for Bernice this time around. All the kindness I had for her has been replaced wit
