"He is bad news..."
Chapter 27
“Look” he whispered. “Are you sure you wanna hear?”
I nodded, touching his cheek. “Speak out”.
“Okay. So, that night, when the officer made the call, I went there to find my mother. Dad was already here and together, we went with her to the hospital. When we arrived there, the doctors tried everything they could but she died of internal bleeding. They couldn’t do anything. My dad decided to spend the night there but I went back to the ‘crime scene’. I knew the police would do the least they could (they always do that, don’t they?) so I decided to investigate the case myself. I went there and I saw my mother’s car smashed by another purple Bugatti I think. I went closer to look at it. Only one could afford a Bugatti in this school except me. Zachary Bowers. I saw the policeman talking to some man around forty–five wearing a suit. They were quarreling and I could figure this out by the policeman’s expression. After five minutes, the policeman opened the door of the car and two teenagers got out. It took me two seconds to realize the teens were Vince and Zach. I stood there, till they got into this man’s jeep and left. I walked to the policeman to ask for more. He told me that this man was Zach’s father, Arnold Bowers, who came here so Zach can be off the hook. They were gonna go to the police station after, that’s what he said. I knew Zach and Vince would get away with it since Zach’s dad was a huge lawyer and made like 500,000 dollars per day. I didn’t care, though. I wanted to make him pay no matter what.
The next day I went to school and found him and Vince talking about something with serious faces. I grabbed them both and locked them inside an empty room. I started with the threats and Vince, as the classic coward he is, said everything, every bit of it. Zach was all quiet. I told them I’d make them pay for everything they did. That’s how that competition with Zach and me began. Vince had to follow, you clearly understand why” Everett ended, his eyes on the ground.
I stood there speechless. That story was impossible. I knew Zach was a bad guy, but that bad? I couldn’t even imagine this. This was just…unthinkable. Annie (Everett’s mom) was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. I didn’t know her very well but still, she was really nice and kind. She shouldn’t have died like this.
“Yes but still” I muffled, feeling my mouth dry, “You never told me how it happened. What did Vince tell you?”
Everett took a deep breath. “They were at this party on Saturday and they got really drunk. Zach got in the car even though Vince told him not to, they drove across the street, Zach didn’t see my mom’s car and...”
“I see” I cut him off. “I must tell Sienna”.
“No” he grabbed my hand. “Don’t tell her”.
“Why not?” I asked.
“Because she’ll ask stuff, like ‘How do you know?’ or ‘Who told you?’ or ‘Since when you hang out with Everett?’ and things. That’s Sienna, don’t tangle up with her” he joked, flashing me a smile.
I smiled back, snuggling next to him.
“I just hope she’ll be okay…”
