Sharp, stinging pain rips through my wrists as I yank against the rickety wooden chair. An old ass chair and frayed rope⦠this should be easy so why in the hell canât I get free?
A piercing scream erupts from the other side of the dark musty room, echoing through my ears. I recognize that scream. My gaze snaps toward the sound and my heart jumps right out my chest while my stomach painfully twists. Tara. I need to get to her. Sheâs in danger.
No, no, no.
God, no.
âMarnix, help!â Tara begs as the faceless man brutally rapes her right in front of me. âMarnix!â Her screams cut right through the tension, filling me with panic. My heart squeezes inside my chest, ready to burst from the sight.
I jerk at the rope again, but it still doesnât budge. It seems to be getting tighter and tighter the more I pull. âTara! Get the fuck off her! Iâll fucking kill you if you keep touching her. Tara!â I yell, but the man doesnât stop. Itâs like he doesnât hear me, or maybe he does and doesnât care. Heâs the one who tied me to this chair; he wants me to watch her suffer.
I feel fucking helpless. I canât save her.
I canât save the woman I love.
Sheâs being destroyed right in front of me, and itâs all my fault.
âYou went and fell in love with poor West Side scum, didnât you, son?â My attention snaps to my father standing to my right, dressed in his pristine black Neiman Marcus tux. His salt and pepper hair is slicked back and perfect as usual.
What the hell? When did he get here?
Why is he here?
Heâs dead⦠I went to his funeral, watched them lower his body six feet under.
âDad? What are you doing here?â Looking around, I no longer see Tara. Itâs like she vanished, only a figment of my imagination. All I can see is the large frame of my father looming over me. It feels like Iâm ten again, scared and intimidated by this bastard.
I may not be able to see her anymore, but I can still hear her. I can hear her cries and screams. Sheâs begging for me to help her, and I donât even know where she is. âTara! Where are you? Stay strong for me. Iâm coming, baby.â
He ignores my question. âIâm disappointed in you, Marnix. Do you know how bad that cheap whore makes our family look? The West Side trash ruined this family, and you just couldnât help but fall into the same trap, could you?â
What the hell is he talking about?
Anger boils violently under my skin. âI donât give a fuck what you think,â I spit. âI donât fucking care that sheâs not rich or that she doesnât come from a prestigious background. Sheâs the only person in this world besides Mom and Reilly that ever gave a shit about me. You never cared about me, it was all about you. Iâ¦I love her!â
His deep chuckle reverberates through the small concrete room, covering up Taraâs defeated whimpers.
