Erica was drifting to sleep as she was thinking about Nick, she decided to meet him tomorrow and sort things out but for now she settled for a text with "Hey, I am sorry for not saying too much today can we meet up tomorrow at our usual site and discuss things? Love you" and slept.

Nick was walking in his neighborhood when he received a text. He is silently praying it's from Erica the love of his life he met her earlier today but their meeting did not end well. When he opened it it's from his drug addict brother. Gosh what does he want now he thought to himself as he opened the text it reads "Bro!! Heard you got accepted into Princeton. I am expecting a lot from you! See you soon." "Tshh" he mumbled "sure as hell wants something. I am sure it's some money or maybe….." a sudden force came at him and he was knocked down on the floor. He doesn't know what's happening but the guy is quick he suddenly puts a gun in front of him , Nick looks up but can't figure it out his face in the darkness . "what do you want?" says Nick but the other guy has a stern look that he can't figure out he thinks to himself, this is not a simple robbery I am fucked and quickly runs through his mind if there is anyone that might want to kill him but before he has the chance to think, the guy utters one simple word and pulls the trigger then silently walks away.
