'Okay, George, you're scaring me. What happened? Are you in some kind of trouble?' I asked with a small smile on my face.
'Gerald was getting bullied and I thought it was my place as his older brother to stand up to his bullies for him and stuff but I might have gone a little overboard.'
'It will help a lot if you stopped speaking in parables and just hit the nail on the head.' I could feel my heart beating faster.
'I don't want to go to jail, Kassy.' He tightened his grip on my hand and something about it reminded me of Black sin and how she held my hand the previous night.
'What are you talking about? I can't stay here all day, George. I need to go up and check on Pink so maybe you should start telling me what this is all about.' I said.
'I killed a guy last night.' Tears gathered in his eyes.
I had never seen George cry before so I knew whatever it was that made him break down had to be very serious.
