“I’m fine but I am not the one with cuts and bruises on my back.”

“What are you talking about?” Gabriel asked me, a puzzled look across his face

He doesn’t know.

“Micheal apparently took it upon himself to discipline Catalina while you were gone.”

Discipline. What he did was far from discipline.

“Did she say what happened?”

I looked into Gabriel’s eyes and I could see the anger slowly building up in them,

“Every detail and let me make one thing clear Gabriel,”

I didn’t expect any of you to stand up for me anyway.

“Every story needs a villain right?” I responded.
