ONB-Chapter 23

Chapter 23

We were getting ready for dinner, but Mason was not back yet. He told mother that he was going to be back for dinner. I was wondering what was taking him so long. I decided to call his phone. I didn’t know if he was going to answer me or not. I knew that he was going to be upset with me. When I tried to dial his number it rang for a while. Then I heard his voicemail come on. I was a little disappointed that he didn’t answer me. I could feel tears coming back into my eyes. I didn’t want him to be mad at me.

“Honey, it’s going to be okay. You’re brother loves you very much. He just needs you and he knows that you can’t be there for him as much anymore. Vlad is more important. He needs his mother.” Alex said trying to comfort me. I didn’t tell him that Mason wished that we didn’t get married. I was hurt by those words. I think Mason was trying to take away my happiness. I think it is because that’s the way he felt when I left.

“I know, but I just am worried that he doesn’t love me as much anymore. I haven’t been around for him. So much stuff is going on. Having the baby has gotten the world crazy. Mason just wishes we never got married. He wishes that I was still here with him. I understand that he needs me. I am his older sister, but I feel like he is being too territorial with me. I don’t know.” I said with tears still in my eyes.

I was glad that Vlad couldn’t see this because he had his eyes closed as he was drinking his bottle. I didn’t want him to see me cry again. That would set him off crying and I didn’t want that right now. I knew that he could feel my sadness.

“He wishes that we hadn’t gotten married…?” Alex said with hesitance. I knew that he was hurt by that as well. Mason did like him when we first started our relationship. I don’t know what could have changed his mind. It is probably because I don’t have time. I had time before I had Vlad. I had to work, but he still was able to come over. He was going to be able to come over even though I have Vlad. Mason knew he could still talk to me about anything. I didn’t know why he was acting this way now. It was upsetting that he didn’t think he could.

“Yeah, he wishes that now. I don’t think he understood how difficult it would be for him. His dreams are really scary. He used to sleep next to me and he would be okay. He doesn’t have that privilege now that I have moved out. The only time he will is when Vlad isn’t attached to me. He is too small to be on his own and he is a mama’s boy. He will grow out of that in a few years.” I said. Alex nodded at me, but I still knew that he was upset. I think anyone would be upset if they knew their brother in law didn’t want him to be with his sister.

“That is understandable, but still he is upset right now. I hope that he answers soon. I don’t like to see you cry.” He said giving me a kiss on the cheek. It made me feel a little better. I was glad that I had the best husband ever. He was always going to be there for me and I knew he would. I was glad because I don’t think I could ever live without him and our child. They were just as big to me as my family.

I knew that I hurt my sister. That is why I had run out of the house. I didn’t mean to hurt her and I didn’t mean to make her feel bad. I was just stating how I felt. I need her and she knows I do. I just wish that she could spend more time with me. It’s been a long time since I’ve gotten to spend time with her. When she didn’t have Vlad she wasn’t busy. I was glad that I was going to be an uncle, but I didn’t think I would be so lonely without her.

I now wonder if this was how it would have been if Carson was still alive. He was married and had a kid of his own. Would I feel the way that I do now? Would he feel the way that I do? I think he would because he was just as close to Aubrey as I was. Carson wouldn’t be jealous though. He would be happy for her. I was happy for her too. I just feel lonely now that my sister is gone. I want to be close to her. She is the only sibling that I have left. I feel like I’m losing her. I know that I am not because she loves me. She would do anything for me.

I now feel bad that I hit the wall in front of her. I could see the scare expression that was written on her face. She has never seen me react violently before. I have changed within the last few years. I felt like I was a needy little kid. I still think I am a needy person. I just have more built up anger within me. I have been getting in a lot of fights with people. Mother and Father have been worried about me too. They see cuts and bruises on me. Half of the time it is the other person’s blood that was on me. I don’t know why I have gotten so violent.

I think it’s just because I have been lonely. I haven’t been happy and now when I fight I get a sense of being something. I think I just need attention. I could be one of those attention seekers. I didn’t want to be.

When I was about to turn on my street I saw someone that didn’t like me on my street. I didn’t like him much either. Every time we saw each other we would get into some type of fight. The last fight was hand to hand combat. I knew he was going to have a knife this time. I normally didn’t use weapons to fight someone, but this time it was going to be different. I grabbed the knife out of my pocket. He had seen me and he had a smirk on his face.

“What are you doing here?” I asked him.

“I have come for some payback. I think I owe you for the black eye that you gave me.” He said. He jumped off of his motorcycle he had been riding. I hated that motorcycle. He thought he looked cool riding it, but I felt he looked like a food.

“I don’t think you deserve any sort of payback. You are just a sore loser. I think you should go back to where you have come from.” I said and spit on the side. I was glad that I had the knife hidden. I saw him reach of something in his pocket. When he ran up he had a knife in his hand. I dodged his first attack and tried to stab him in the shoulder, but I missed. He got me the second time. I yelled out in pain. I was bleeding and I could feel pain. I fell back onto the street. I was glad that I didn’t hit my head on the ground.

I don’t remember anything that had happened after that. I think I had lost consciousness from the wound that I had received.

There's a little bit of repetition "I yelled out in pain. I was bleeding and I could feel pain." This part is obvious here. There's a couple of errors but nothing major. It's a gripping piece of prose and you've got a good build up to the confrontaion. I like what you have written. Hope to read more. :)
