Drag

"I would like to hear more details." Tom spoke with a big smile.

Ralph understood more or less why Leticia came to his house.

It turns out that his father is a renowned scientist in the field of molecular biology, and it wouldn't be strange if a space company was interested in employing him.

Now that he thinks about it, he remembered Lucas saying that Letícia was the daughter of a HighX shareholder.

Ralph, understanding the situation, decided to leave for Ana's house.

Without even asking, he took the car key and went to him.

Although he is not drunk, Ana's house is not that far so he is not afraid of being stopped by the police or crashing his car. And he also got a little better after taking the medicine.

When he started the car, however, he realized he had forgotten his cell phone.

He then turned off the car and entered the house.

He suddenly found himself not knowing where he left his cell phone, and searched the room first.

Under the gauze of Tom and Leticia, he looked on the sofa, on the table, and even under the rug.

Without finding the cell phone, he decided to go to the kitchen, even without remembering having left the cell phone there.

"What are you looking for?" His mother asked.

"My phone."

"I saw you with him when I arrived."

Ralph started to get a little stressed and drank another glass of water to calm himself.

He then gave up on picking up his cell phone and went to the car.

Upon entering, he saw the cell phone in the driver's seat. He must have sat on the phone without realizing it.

Taking a deep breath, he started the car and prepared to leave, but first decided to connect the bluetooth of the cell phone with the car stereo to put on a song.

Meanwhile, Tom led Leticia to the gate with a slightly stern expression.

"To think that HighX is planning something so sinister ... I refuse this offer, please go away, Dr. Letícia." He said irritably.

"But you didn't even let me finish explaining." Letícia spoke in a tired tone.

"I don't need to listen to everything, the fact that you are planning such a cruel experiment already makes me very disappointed and angry."

"Please go and have a good night." Tom said as he slammed the gate shut.

Letícia, who was outside, sighed, Tom was the third to refuse the offer. Would anyone accept it? There are few doctors with sufficient capacity for the experiment ...

She then started walking towards her car, when she saw Ralph with the car running in front.

- Wasn't he drunk?

She thought, and almost went to warn Ralph's parents when she remembered the way Tom threw her out of the house.

Annoyed, she decided to ignore it and went straight to her car.

When she started the car, she heard a loud sound coming from Ralph's car.

Ralph then jerked off and accelerated forward.

Seeing this, Letícia was a little worried and felt a little guilt, since she could have prevented him from driving drunk.

She then decided to catch up with Ralph and at least advise him to come back.

She accelerated the car to try to catch up with Ralph, but realized that the drunk had accelerated even more.

-He's not afraid to crash the car?

She thought with fear.

She then sped up too and started to approach Ralph.

After the two of them entered a more spacious avenue, she accelerated even more to be side by side with Ralph's car and started to honk.

Ralph noticed and looked to the side however, because of the dark glass of Leticia's car, he didn't see her face, but someone challenging him!

He was drunk, the road was empty, his car was powerful, how could he refuse?

He then honked too and accelerated as fast as possible, making dust rise.

Seeing this, a vein appeared on Leticia's forehead.

After hesitating slightly, she also accelerated since the road was empty.

Her car was a model with a V8 turbo engine, and it was a little more powerful than Ralph's.

Their distance was shortening even more, and without realizing it, their speedometer was hitting 160km / h in the middle of the city!

Letícia was worried about being fined, but even more worried about someone suffering because of a fast drunk, so she started honking and trying to stay on Ralph's freight, who saw this as a provocation.

He checked in an app for reports of blitz in the region, and then started to smile.

He then pressed a button on the car's dashboard, which changed the car's configuration from balanced to performance!

He then switched off the car and started it again very quickly, causing the engine to suffer.

He then rolled down the car window and gave his opponent the middle finger while accelerating and making him eat dust.

Seeing this, Letícia, who was already irritated, became furious and without realizing it she started to accelerate the maximum.

The maximum speed of the two cars was close to 300km / h, and although they are far from that limit, 200km / h is quite ridiculous to reach in a city.

Ralph was in ecstasy for winning and Leticia was furious and worried at the same time. Neither of them wanted to give up.

After struggling to get to Ralph's car again, she then rolled down the door's window and started cursing Ralph.

What she saw, however, was not a Ralph looking at her, but looking forward with a terrified expression!

Ralph braked suddenly, leaving Letícia in front.

Letícia then looked ahead and almost let out a bad word.

There was a blitz thirty meters ahead, with the cops signaling her to stop.

She braked as hard as she could, and even then she only managed to stop completely in front of the blitz.

Ralph also stopped on one side, cursing the app where he checked if there's a blitz earlier.

He then calculated the losses and gains and wondered if he should run from the police, since no one has seen his face yet, and then testify saying someone stole the car ...

But it was too late and the policeman was looking directly at him.

"So, you like a Drag, huh? Hands on your head" The policeman said as he opened the car door.

After being searched, Ralph cursed whoever called him to drag racing.

He then saw Leticia being questioned by a police officer and pointing at him, right behind her was the car he was competing in.

-It can not be...

Ralph thought of a possibility and was filled with surprise.

"You asshole! It's all your fault." Letícia shouted.

Upon hearing this, Ralph got angry and shouted:

"I didn't know you liked drag racing, teacher! If I remember correctly, it was you who provoked me into the race!"

Upon hearing this, Leticia's face turned blue with anger and she said to the police officer:

"See, he's clearly drunk, you can use the breathalyzer on him. I was trying to prevent an accident from happening because of him!"

The policeman just shook his head and wrote on a paper with an apathetic expression.

"You can call the squeaks!" The cop who was writing said to the colleague.

Upon hearing this, Ralph and Letícia's expression hardened.

-I shouldn't have taken this avenue because it's faster ...

Ralph thought.

-I shouldn't have followed that asshole.

Leticia thought.

But now that the shit was done, Ralph started to think about the lawsuits.

As it is the first time that he commits a crime and the seriousness of the crimes, he has an average chance arrested under Brazilian law. But the fine will certainly be astronomical. And he will be detained for a while at the police station.

Letícia was in a better situation, since she was not drunk and due to being the first time she committed a crime, she has a low chance of being arrested. But the fine will certainly be astronomical. And she can end being detained for a while.

The policeman, however, was calculating the bonus he was going to get for having intercepted the two.

"Cough Cough" Ralph suddenly tapped the cop on the shoulder.

"What's it?" The policeman said as he prepared to chain Ralph and Leticia.

"Aren't you the cousin of Black Drama?" Ralph asked in a low voice.

The policeman's expression suddenly became serious and he asked:

"How do you know?"

"I heard that he had a police cousin named Tomas." He then pointed to the name on the policeman's uniform.

"And?" The policeman looked at Ralph suspiciously.

"I happen to be a childhood friend of his, I don't know if you've heard my name, Ralph Karman."

The policeman frowned and shook his head.

"If you didn't hear my name, you certainly heard my nickname, The breaker." Ralph said in a low voice.

The policeman then looked surprised and approached Ralph.

"Are you "The breaker"?"

Ralph nodded.

The policeman then called his colleague and murmured something in his ear.

The fellow officer then looked at Ralph with a surprised expression.

The police officer then looked at Ralph cautiously and asked:

"And what do you want? Since you're saying this to us?"

Ralph smiled slightly and replied:

"Come on, we're all smart men, you know my intention well."

The policemen looked at each other and said quietly:

"We can help, but you can't get rid of your bar completely, since there is a witness there."

Ralph understood and was a little disappointed, but it was still better than nothing.

He then wrote something down on the paper and handed it to the police.

"This is my address, you can come and charge me later, but it is better that you do not spread it out or else I will have to tell Black Drama that certain policemen have missed the word ... you understand me."

The cops nodded, and the highest ranking cop, who was a sergeant, shook Ralph's hand.

"It was a pleasure to negotiate with you." The policeman spoke and then handcuffed Ralph.

Letícia, who had not heard the conversation, saw the scene and knew something was wrong, but she preferred to remain silent, as things can get worse for her.

The police did not test the breathalyzer on Ralph, for the understanding of Leticia, who cursed secretly.

Now Ralph would only account for speeding and drag racing on public roads.

Both are not minor offenses, but they are unlikely to take him to prison.

A little relieved, he then got into the vehicle, with Leticia.

A silence came over the vehicle, until Ralph asked:

"Why did you do that?"

Letícia felt a vein almost burst on her forehead and controlled herself not to punch Ralph.

"You ... It's your fault!" She spoke while gritting her teeth.

Ralph put on a strange expression and asked:

"Weren't you married?"

Leticia almost had a heart attack and remembered that the bastard must still be drunk.

But in reality, Ralph was already almost sober, due to the medicine he had taken and the events somewhat ... unusual.

He was just playing with Letícia, to relax.

He then asked again:

"But seriously, why did you follow me?"

Leticia seemed to be about to explode and didn't want to answer.

Ralph then shrugged, put on his headphones and put on some music to try to relax.

Now that he knew he was unlikely to be arrested, he just had to worry about the fine that was going to come and the cursing of his parents.

Seeing Ralph unexpectedly listen to music in such a difficult situation, Leticia decided to ignore him completely, as she fears that she would commit another crime if she continued to pay attention to him.

After arriving at the police station, they were interrogated for a while and, as they both had no pass through the police, they were released, but they would still answer in court for the crimes.

In a corner of the police station, Ralph felt the cell phone vibrate in his pocket, it was his mother.

He answered without hesitation and said:

"Mom, it's all the teacher's fault, she teased me when I was drunk."

Since Leticia was far from Ralph, she did not have to stress about that speech.

"You little asshole, do you think I'm an idiot?"

A series of curses followed for a few minutes until his mother got tired and he had the opportunity to speak:

"Can you guys pick me up with the other car?"

Unfortunately for Ralph, the mother just laughed coldly and hung up.

-It seems that I will have to walk.

Ralph thought bitterly.

He decided to hurry up before it got too late, but before leaving the police station, Letícia and Ralph's eyes met.

Letícia turned her face to the side with an irritated expression, which seemed cute in the sight of Ralph.

He then decided to approach and spoke while bowing slightly:

"I know it was all my fault, I'm sorry for getting you into this mess."

Letícia just looked at him indifferently.

"I was ... I wasn't thinking clearly at the time and I said stupid words, I'm sorry."

Letícia continued to look at him indifferently.

Ralph just sighed and left, he didn't expect to be excused so simply, and said it just out of politeness.

When he was out of the station, however, he heard a voice from behind:

"Wait." Letícia spoke as she walked towards him.

Ralph was a little surprised and noticed an envelope in her hand.

"... If you really want me to forgive you, I want you to do something for me."

Upon hearing this, Ralph put on a strange expression and said:

"I don't like that kind of proposal, I prefer that you stay mad at me."

Letícia then tapped her foot and said irritably:

"You ... you and your father are the same, don't even let me finish talking and come to a conclusion."

Upon hearing this, Ralph held a smile and put his hand in her forehead.

"Watch the pressure, you've been very upset recently" He said seriously.

"Hehe ..." Letícia laughed coldly.

"Remember that I am your teacher and I have a certain power at the university ... that can end your dreams and your social life."

Upon hearing this, Ralph looked at her with a fake smile and said:

"Finally showing the fangs, huh? What do you want me to do?"

Letícia then handed the envelope to Ralph and said:

"I just want you to convince your father to fully analyze this data and to talk to me later."

Ralph realized it wasn't that simple but he agreed nonetheless

"It is a pleasure to do business with you." He said as he shook hands with Letícia, who was taken by surprise by Ralph's movement.

Shaking Ralph's hand away, she took a deep breath and said:

"Never touch me again without permission, did you hear? Or will I have to sue you."

Ralph just laughed and left, at that point, it was just impossible for their relationship to be friendly, so he didn't bother much to please Letícia.

Seeing Ralph leave, Leticia returned to the police station and waited for her father to pick her up.

On the way home, perhaps because of the alcohol remaining in his blood, Ralph did not pay much attention to the surroundings and was almost mugged, his luck being that a car was passing by and the bandits ran away.

This cleared the rest of the alcohol and Ralph was completely sober.

He then took off his headphones and remembered what had happened in the past few hours.

"I did drag racing with professor Letícia ... And we were arrested together."

Cold sweat started to run down Ralph's shores as he realized how much shit he stepped on.

"... It's all that damn Aurora's fault!"

He then decided to blame something.

After walking for almost an hour, he finally got home, if it weren't for the fact that he left his credit card at home, he would have called a taxi.

Ralph knew what awaited him in the room, a purgatory, yet he confidently entered the house, with a calm expression.

But when he saw Ralph come in, both his father and mother just looked at him coldly.

Seeing this, Ralph decided not to say anything and went straight to the bedroom, avoiding a storm.

He then threw himself on the bed, and took out his cell phone.

After thinking for a moment, he called Ana, who this time answered.

"..." Ana said nothing and seemed to expect Ralph to speak.

Ralph smiled bitterly and said:

"I know you're angry, but I really didn't have my cell phone when you tried to call me."

"Sigh ... I know you probably left your phone on silent, no need to lie." Ana spoke in a tired tone.

Ralph decided not to talk about what had happened and just asked:

"Why you called me?"

"... I don't know very well, actually, first I just wanted to ask a question with you, but after Aurora I just wanted someone to talk to."

Ralph then understood and said:

"I was going to your house when you answered at that time, but something unexpected happened and I couldn't go there ... Sorry."

"... I want you to tell me everything tomorrow."

Ralph smiled slightly and noticed Leticia's tired tone.

"Got it ... Good night, sleep well." He said.

"Good night." She said.

After hanging up, they both went to sleep, as it was already late and they had to wake up early for college.
