At the bridge
Ryle Pov:
I had no idea where I was heading when I left home. I kept driving and really had no idea where I was. I became irritated as a result of what my father and I said and how we responded. He has no feelings, and he doesn't consider how I'll react when he says things like that. I'm used to it, so it's not a big deal.
I'm not furious with my brother because he didn't do anything wrong, but he might have been angry after hearing those words. Renz is clearly superior to me, and there is no rivalry between us. However, our parents often compare the two of us, particularly our father.
When my phone rang, I looked at it and saw that it was my mother calling. I ignored it, but she continued to call even after I rejected it. When my phone vibrated as I was going to put it in the pocket of my uniform, I peeked at it first and noticed a text from my mother.
