ROXIE
After taking a few moments, I walked through the curtain.
Chants greeted me.
I kept my eyes straight ahead, but I could feel eyes on me. I knew the crowd was there, but those eyes were on me.
I climbed into the ring, and she spotted my dad with Jason and another guy, but there was no sign of Uncle Keith. Where the hell is he? I wondered. Uncle Keith would usually be standing by the ring or on the sidelines.
I stood up and looked around. Tammy was glaring at me, but I could see Demon behind her holding her waist, whispering in her ear. I couldn't hear what they were saying as the crowd was too loud.
The referee lifted his hand and motioned for the announcer to ring the bell.
I moved around, but my eyes scanned the crowd, and there was still no sign of Uncle Keith. Where the hell was he? Surely my outburst earlier didn't make him mad, he knew how I like to stay focused before a fight, and he was talking way too much for me to handle.
