Nightmare

With body covered in blood, David crawled to the best of his remaining strength to reach a revolver-type pistol that was lying not far from where he was.

"David, hang on!" shouted Hendrick Brasco, who was still hiding behind a concrete wall that began to porous due to the constant rain of bullets from various directions.

The meeting, which should have been peaceful as usual, immediately became a battleground that the four elite mafia camps could not avoid.

Hendrick Brasco, the big boss of the mafia was framed by his own confidants.

All of his men had been slaughtered, leaving Hendrick and David still alive even though they were both in desperation.

Hendrick blindly shot the remnants of bullets from the assault-rifle type firearm he was holding as hard as he could, while David was still stumbling on the floor enduring the pain that ran through his body just trying to reach for a gun that either still had bullets or not.

A few more yards David could reach for the gun, until the loud sound of a grenade exploding not far from him made David lose his sense of hearing for a few moments.

The sound of gunfire from shouting firearms could no longer be heard by him, only a loud hum that kept ringing in his head.

"Piece of shit!" shouted Hendrick while throwing the assault-rifle that had out of ammo in random direction desperately. Hendrick pulled a revolver from inside his black coat and tried to provide cover fire while he tried to get to where David was.

Hendrick managed to grab David's hand, hook it around his neck to help David walk. "Move your ass, we have to get outta this damn place."

Hendrick repeatedly shot cover-fire while continuing to help David walk.

At the end of the hallway which became the area of ​​the bloody battle, a jeep was parked which was planned to be an escape for Hendrick and David.

After a hell-like-struggling, they got into the jeep. Without further ado, Hendrick drove the four-wheeled vehicle like a crazy driver.

Hendrick turned his head to David who happened to be looking at him too. Satisfied laughter erupted from the two men who had just escaped the life and death situation. But just as the seeds of hope began to emerge, a Ford double-cabin car hit the right side of the Jeep they were driving.

BAM!!!

Hendrick, who was caught off guard, could not bear the sudden change in direction of the car. As a result, they both fell free from the cliff directly above the sea.

About four people in black suits who were in the Ford double-cabin got off and rained bullets on the Jeep, which slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

"David, wake up!"

David, who had lost consciousness, was awakened by a heavy slap in the face by Hendrick several times.

"Are you awake?" asked Hendrick, who only received a small nod from David. "Good. Listen, I'm gonna give you an order you must obey whether you want it or not."

David frowned. It was the first time he had seen a Hendrick Brasco speak to him with teary eyes.

"All right. Maybe this is my last command to you. When I open the door, the seawater will fill the whole car. I will be their target for shooting, while you will get out of the other side and dive as far as possible."

David grabbed Hendrick by the collar of Hendrick's white shirt, which had turned red as blood. "Are you crazy?! Ain't no way I'm gonna leave you like fuck!"

Hendrick remained staring into David's eyes deeply with great seriousness.

"As a father, I can only give you this kinda hell-life that you have to live for the rest of your life. I hope you can forgive me one day."

"Stop your bullshit right now, you fucking old fox!" snapped David, still don't get response from Hendrick.

"Well, this is my last command, as a boss, and also as a father. I want you to live on and find someone valuable to share happiness with. And when you find her, take care of her no matter what."

David had no time to say anything when Hendrick kicked David's body out of the sinking Jeep.

The sea water that had been blue turned red.

With great despair David dived away from the red-colored-sea to the point of his last breath.

Now everything is pitch black.

"David."

A voice was heard calling out to him from the darkness.

"David."

Again. The voice was heard again. The voice grew louder and louder. As if calling him out of the darkness that was so gripping.

"David!"

David opened his eyes spontaneously. The roar of his breath was chaotic accompanied by cold sweat. And the first thing he saw was the face of a girl who had recently entered his life.

Angeline, the girl who was currently looking at David with an expression full of concern.

"Are you okay? Are you always have nightmares like this?"

Angeline continued to bombard David with questions he didn't even answer.

"Should I call a doctor? Wait, I'll get you some water, maybe—"

Without the slightest warning David put his hand behind Angeline's head, pulled the girl's head closer and hugged her tightly, even tho Angeline never knew his intention. But after that, they became so much closer.

Just because that simple thing.

A warmth hug.
