"Boss! Demar! Demar, answer me!" Demarco shouts over the phone after he hears a loud commotion.
Demarco quickly ran to his computer and searched for Demar's car's GPS signal. "Found it!".
"Four men follow me! The rest of you stay back, I will soon be back!" Demarco commanded as he took up his keys and threw on his jacket.
The four men, Demarco, asked to follow him, went into their cars and followed behind Demarco's car.
***
15 Minutes before Demarco arrived on the scene. . .
"Where. . . where am I?". "O, I crashed into a huge truck. I. . . I. . . I need to get out of this car." "Damn, my feet can't move."
"Demar! Demar! Demar, can you hear me!"
"Haha, it looks like I'm worrying that sucker!"
"Damn, my head hurts, I just. . . want to. . . sleep now. . ."
***
To the present
"Boss! Boss! One of you men calls an ambulance!" Demarco, who was trying to wake Demar, shouts. "Yes, sir!"
"How the hell did this shit happen!" Demarco cursed in his heart as he felt the rage of anger start to boil inside him.
All the days of him and Demar being close friends, he has never seen Demar in a position like this.
Yes, they went through a lot of crap together like stolen guns, stolen cars and ships, drugs, you name it, but he has never been in a situation where he had to take him to the hospital then worry when he will wake.
"You really know to make me worried, you mother-father!" Demarco shouts as he bangs on the car Demar was in.
"Wiu-Wiu, Wiu-win"
"The ambulance is here!" one of the men who followed Demarco shouts.
"Civilians that are around the vehicles, please excuse!" a paramedic shouts as the firefighters and officers approach the car and truck.
The paramedic checks both Demar and the truck driver and sees if they are still breathing. "Both patients are still breathing!"
"Alright boys, get them out! Get them out!" a fire captain shouts as he orders his men to take both patients out of their vehicles.
"Captain, they are both out!"
"Alright, get them moving and transfer them to Night Love city hospital!"
Demarco, who was across from the street and watching, heard which hospital they were moving Demar to and went into his car and went straight to that hospital.
***
Demarco exited his car and ran into the hospital and asked the front desk, "Where is Demar Benjamin's room?"
"Who are you to him?"
"I'm his brother."
"Okay, he's in room 25."
"Thank you!"
***
As Demarco reached Demar's room, he saw that Demar's eyes were open, and speaking to a doctor.
"Good, you are awake!" Demarco said in his heart and sat on the chair beside Demar's room door.
***
"Mr Benjamin, do you remember what happened before the accident?" the doctor asked, who was in the hospital with Demar.
"Yes."
"Could you tell me what exactly happened?" the doctor asked again.
"Sure, I went to the club to get a drink of Tom Collins' cocktail. Then I left to head home. While heading home, my eyes slowly got blurry and my head started to hurt. Soon after I drove myself into a truck," Demar said as he skipped out the part about seeing Zora's father, then kept seeing different images of him in his head.
"It doesn't look as if you were on drugs, so I guess you must have had a terrible headache which caused you not to see well. Ensure you are getting the right amount of sleep, Mr Benjamin," the doctor said, then left Demar laying in bed.
***
'Knock, knock',
"Come in."
As Demarco entered Demar's room, he asked with a smirk, "How are you feeling, you piece of shit?"
"Better than you, mother-father!" Demar replied while laughing.
Demarco looked Demar up and down before grabbing a chair and asked, "So, was it really an accident?"
Demar smiled, then asked, "Were you worried?"
"Why would I worry over someone as cold as you?" Demarco asked, then rolled his eyes at Demar.
"HAHA!" Demar laughs, "It's okay to worry about me!"
"I wasn't, though. . ." Demarco replied as he hides his true feelings from Demar. "HAHA! Demarco is a soft baby!" Demar said as he continued to tease Demarco.
***
'Knock, knock',
Zora, who was still feeling a little ill, spoke softly and commanded the person on the other side of the door to enter, "Come in."
The person who was on the other side of the door entered with a tray with a bowl of soup on it.
"My dear, how are you feeling?" the person who entered asked as Zora slowly sat up-right in bed to eat what her father bought for her.
After sitting up-right Zora looked at her father then asked coldly, "Why are you here? Weren't there any female servers?"
Before replying to what his daughter asked, he put the tray on her study table, then sat on her bed and replied, "I didn't come here to fight with you."
Before Zora could say another word, her father pulled out a picture of her one-night stand and asked, "Do you know this man?"
Not sure if she should answer him or not she asks, "Why are you asking?"
"Because this man right here is a Mafia Lord and I don't want my baby girl around such a man," Mr Brooke said as he moved Zora's hair from her face.
Not being able to process the information just given to her, she asked, "Don't touch me and what do you mean by he's a Mafia Lord?"
"Simple, a mafia is a group of criminals and a lord is a leader, so a Mafia Lord is a person who leads a group of criminals."
Getting annoyed by her father's bull, she said, "I went to school so I know what a mafia lord is and I don't know him."
Even though her father knew she was lying about not knowing him, he just got up out of the room and left her alone since it makes no sense to get information from her.
"If this guy is a Mafia Lord, I should stay away from him, but. . .but I also want to know what he wants with me. What should I do?" Zora asked herself as she tried to figure out what she should do.
