Ren was bored. The meeting with the mayor went on and on. And he was at his wits end.
He should just write the city a check and be done with it. They didn’t actually need him for this. But he had asked to be part of it. This is the life he had worked hard for. He had moved his family out of the criminal world into legit business so he can live an honest life.
And that took patience.
Patience it seemed he didn’t have anymore.
He stared at the setting sun outside, wishing with his whole heart to be somewhere else, preferably with Okafu.
He hasn’t seen her for one day and he missed her. Last night he’d had to stop himself from calling or texting her, just to check if she was alright.
He didn’t like the way they parted. And the words he had said.
God, he wished he could take them
