pandamonium Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Andres did a quick scan of the area, before getting into the car and closing the door. He took a deep breathe and exhaled. "Okay...the 'business' my parents run...It's not really considered 'legal'." He kept his eyes on the seeing wheel. "It's organized crime. They specialize in drug trafficking and weapons smuggling."

Kotorichan Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Sarin stared at the man, his eyes wide with shock and horror. He opened and closed his mouth a couple of times before finally speaking. "...What?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandamonium Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Andres sighed. "You heard me. They run a cartel. My parents specialize in the west coast. From Arizona to Washington and of course neighboring States. They have connections from South America and the Pacific islands. My mom's the head of it all, but she uses my dad as a puppet." He was shaking slightly from revealing such a private thing. "Look...I'm sure you're freaking out, but don't let anyone know about this. If you want out, I'll fly you anywhere you wanna go and give you enough money to live the rest of your life in luxury. Just don't tell nobody or...I'll have to do something I'll regret."

pandamonium Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Andres felt his chest clench. This nice day was ruined by telling him the family business. He should have eased him into it. He drove quietly. Never giving a glance towards Sarin for fear of seeing him look at him like a demon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kotorichan Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Sarin began to silently cry as they drove, keeping his hands over his face.

"Then you say you'd be fine with never seeing me again and- and even killing me?" he sobbed, trying to keep from raising his voice.

Look...I do love you and I'd hate to see you go, but I thought that this news would be too much for you. I felt like I was lying to you." He felt tears prick his eyes. "I-I never pretended to care for you and the death threat...I have to protect my parents. Even though I don't agree with what they do...they're my parents. I have an obligation towards them."
