Chapter 227

Brad

While I was sitting in my room like a naughty child, I thought of a way to get out of here to get of the premises and just run I didn’t know where I wanted to go but I needed to get away from this place, it was making me crazier by the minute not that I was crazy at all. When they eventually came to check in on me and make sure I was calm they said I can go to the dinning room for lunch and after lunch I can go and take a walk in the garden. I decided to behave myself I needed to get in the garden I needed to escape and I knew how to get my way. I behave myself while we walked to the dinning room and while we ate our lunch, after lunch my normal nurse came to me and ask if I wanted to go and walk in the garden, off course I excepted, freedom at last I could taste it.

He walked with me the whole way I was starting to get irritated; can’t he leave me alone for like a few minutes, I told the nurse I was going to sit on the bench maybe he will leave me alone then. I walked to the bench but the nurse stayed on the walk way, I was looking at all my options how to get away how to disappear, I saw a gap in the fence and knew I’ll be able to get through that. I looked around for my bodyguard, when I saw he was busy helping someone else, I started to run, but I ran fast when I approached the gap, I saw it might be too small so I pulled on the wire and it gave way giving me the perfect spot to get out of. I started to run as soon as I was out of the gate and I ran and ran until I got to a street, I got my bearings and realized where I was, so I started to walk, I didn’t know how long it will take for them to realize I was missing so I decided to hitch a ride maybe I’ll get to the cemetery no one will go and look for me there, I mean I haven’t been there since their funeral. I older man stopped for me, he didn’t look to sure if he should pick me up my hands where bleeding from the wire of the fence but I gave him a sop story about my wife and son dying and my car broke down and I needed to go to them. He actually started crying. See this is why normal people drink so we don’t cry for any shit. He drove me to the cemetery, I’m sure it was way out of his way but he even offered to wait for me and he will take me back to my car. Off course I declined I didn’t have a plan other than getting here. He left me and I walked slowly to my wife and son’s grave. I couldn’t believe this is the first time I’m back in years, the closer I came the slower I moved. I started to feel guilty for not coming here sooner I felt guilty for using them in my escape plan, then I started to feel guilty that I didn’t attend Jenn’s wedding well that wasn’t my fault the others force me to go home so I didn’t need to feel guilty about that I told myself but at the back of my head I was still feeling guilty. See that is why I drink to forget things like this and not to feel guilty about anything.

When I eventually reached their grave sites I actually fell to the ground and started to cry. I couldn’t believe it; I was crying for the first time since I buried them, I was crying. I started to talk to my wife and told her about the fucking stupid thing the guys did booking me into rehab and that only Jenn or Romeo could book me out. I told her that I wasn’t drinking that much I was just drinking enough to forget. Then I started to talk to my son the one that was suppose to take over my empire, so many times I wished it was Jennifer in the car with her mother, I know it was so wrong to even think but I thought that then I wouldn’t have any problem with my business in fact Romeo wouldn’t even have a say in my business. I know inside me I know it was wrong but still that was the thoughts I had. I must have fallen a sleep on their graves I can’t remember that but it must have happened because I woke up to the sun that was rising. I couldn’t believe I didn’t get cold through the night, I think I should maybe just stay here, I didn’t have nightmares an no one was burning me with coals, although I was staring to shake, viciously shake I was sitting against their headstones while I was shaking, I don’t know how long I sat there, but somewhere I heard someone calling for me, when I look up I saw Peter, it was a relieve but also not because he will tell the others and then I’ll just go back to rehab. “Mr. Rynn” He called a few times and then he called “Brad for fuck sakes where are you?” for some reason I heard the desperateness in his voice so I got up. “I’m right here Peter.” “Fuck boss you scared the shit out of us.” “Well, you can leave again I’m not going anywhere.” “But boss you need to.” “I don’t need to.” “Look at you you need a bath you need food you might even need stiches.” “You can go buy me food and some scotch.” Peter just shook his head. “I’ll be right back.” He said. I sat down again for a while until I heard a car approaching, it was Peter when he got out, he gave me a sandwich and a soda. “I said a fucking drink.” “No, I’m not enabling you anymore.” I threw him with the soda but ate the sandwich. I was still sitting on their graves, when Rufus, Tom and Arlo walked up to me.

“Dear God Brad, what are you doing?” Rufus asked me.
