The undecided

ll make drugs for us. And if you don , your father dies! ”

Ivan felt awful.

I can believe this is how I die.

He had to tell them he could not do it. That plan was insane and would never work anyway.

”Firstly, I don know what he told you but I am only a college student, I don know how to make drugs. ”

”You
e not a chemist? ” He asked, with both a threatening tone and a deathly glare towards Ivans father.

”Im studying chemistry, theres a difference. I don know how to make drugs and I don know how to find out how to do it. I can just ask a teacher because that will get me expelled. And I will get found out if I try to look it up on my own. Or do you think you are the first person to ever ask someone like me to do this. Youll get caught like all the others. ”

Ivan was very frustrated. It was not his fault that they had not thought this throught. But yet he would be the one to pay the price.

But the man in the suit was not done.

”It doesn matter what you think. You are going to do it. It doesn matter if you get caught or if you get expelled. You figure it out or your father dies! ” He threatened again, doubling down on the plan. After all it was the only way for him to get his money back.

But Ivan would surprise him again.

”You know what. You can kill him. In fact you should do it quickly before he gets bored with the current situation and kill all of you. ”

The man was stunned at first, before he burst out laughing. In fact all if his goons did the same.

”Good one kid. ”

”I wasn joking. In fact I think it might already be too late. ” As he said that, he watched as his father finished untying the rope holding his hands.

He got up. No one was watching him. All the guards had been distracted. He stood up. Walked slowly to one of them and discreetly grabbed a knife in the mans pocket.

Then Ivan closed his eyes. He knew what was about to happen. But he could still hear.

First, a long sound of a knife running throught flesh. Then like water dripping out of a pierced hose. And finally something heavy falling down. He knew it was not water, but he had to tell himself that to keep his sanity.

Then panic ensued, he heard shouting from the guards, gunshot and the man in the suit barking orders. But to no avail.

One after the other, he heard every single guard fall to the ground. Blood gushing out of their neck.

Until finally, silence came back to the warehouse. That is when Ivan decided to open his eyes again.

He was not foolish enough to look down at the dead body. He looked up, to his father, who was slowly coming over, covered in blood and a knife in his hand.

”How disappointing. I can believe my own son was willing to get me killed. ” The irony of the situation did not escape Ivan. He simply chose not to point it out.

”And you even had to spoil the fun. If you had agreed, Im sure I could have kept deceiving that fool for a while more. At least until he brought more goons with him. I barely had any fun. ”

This was the last straw.

”Ive had enough! I am done with you! All those people you kill, all those things you made me see. It end now! I want nothing to do with you anymore! Leave me alone and don ever contact me again. ” He snapped.

But his father only had a growing smile on his face.

”Oh really? If I remember correctly, you said exactly the same thing the last time. And the one before. And the one before that. ”

He was interrupted.

”This time I mean it. If you approach me again, I will kill you! I might not truly care about all those things you did. Ive always known you were a monster. But I will never forgive what you did to mom. ”

”And how are you going to do that? Today there were ten armed gang members. And they couldn touch me. How are you going to do it on you own? ”

”Ill turn you in to the police. ”

His smile faded in an instant. He came closer to his son, his tone was frigid and menacing.

”And how would that work, huh? You are going to tell them Im a serial killer? It will be your word against mine. There is no proof. Once I am done here, this place will be cleaner than it ever was. I suggest you rethink your position Ivan. You would not want to break apart our little family. ”

”You think I don have proof. Ever since you killed her I have been gathering evidence against you. And now I don care anymore so Im going to give everything to the… ” He never finished that sentence. A knife was stabbed in his stomach.

He was speechless. He should have expected it, but he had been blinded by rage.

”Don worry son. Ill make this quick. Just like I did for her. ”

Ivan clenched his fist. They were still cuffed behind the chair. There was nothing he could do.

His father grabbed one of the guards gun and brought it to his head.

He heard a small click.

Then nothing.
