The look on Jerry's face will make you show pity on him, holding my shoulders as I stood in front of him, trying to trick the securities into believing us.
This were no ordinary securities, the normal securities are the ones inside, you can see them from here, sitting together distance away, there were three of them chatting, having a conversation because some people else were doing their night job for them today, those trying to guard whatever was in that van that was brought here.
The securities probably knew me and I guess that's why Jerry needed me here on the first place, because I have been here around this time of the night so many times, especially those times I can't sleep because I was thinking about my mom, so I sometimes sneak out here and they allow me in. The first time it happened, they never allowed me in, but I caused a commotion that night, would have probably landed in jail, but I was underage, the second and third time were the same, from the fourth, they began to accept me in, no matter whatever the time says, I would always be allowed in, until today, that's part of a norm now.
The men guarding the door wanted to push us away, but the securities came, knowing that it's the little boy Bruno, who has seem to become their friend now. The requested the men to allow us in, but they decided to accept only me in, holding Jerry back from making an entrance, oh my God.... What if this ruins all they've planned?, I would be then safe from them, I wasn't the one that ruined it, rather it was the men who had come here to guard the gate.
“ What are you guys doing?.... Do you know where I've come from?, Open the f**king door for me, how can you allow my nephew in and f**king leave me out here?.....”
He digged his hand into his jacket and brought out and ID, what is Jerry really up to?, Where did he get the ID from?. He showed it to the men and security, resembling the man in the ID, Oh crap, just Jerry stuff. He was trying to cause a commotion, asking how ordinary civilians will hold him back from making a pass?.
The men allowed him in, more like they don't want to fail whatever mission they've been sent here for, just by getting the attention of the policemen, making them get involved in their business. Jerry spat at the ground, playing his act exceptionally. He made me walk with him as we made our way into the hospital building like Uncle and nephew. I didn't speak, I have no rights to, any mistake from me costs me more than anyone else, I know that. My mom might be here, but since they had the opportunity to take her away the first time, they can still do it again if they wish to, and that scares me.
“ I want you to go in there, you have only ten minutes to stay with your mom, more than that comes with a penalty, do you understand?....”.
I agreed with him with a nod. If I'm to say, this is the most serious version of Jerry I have ever seen, despite all that had happened outside, this raid is still his priority, and after it is all over, he's definitely going to pay everyone back for their crimes committed, that I am sure of, and I am no exemption. I think this is where it all ends, me behaving as his pawn, the button camera on my clothing have seen it all, and I believe I now have my own card to bring to the table, to set myself free.
I walked away from him, heading inside as Jerry stood back there watching me, a fake affection in his eyes when I turned around to see whether he was still there, probably to trick the staffs around who were doing their night shifts. The staffs were just busy doing whatever they were doing, anything that wouldn't make them fall asleep, only four of them were present, one on his phone, probably playing games, two ladies having ladies chat and laughing, and the last girl who looks like an intern sitting on a chair, writing books, the table before her and her attention divided, watching me and also Jerry standing behind, I guess that's why he's even wearing that affectionate look on his face.
“ Be careful not to wake up the patient Bruno!...”, one of the ladies gossiping said to my hearing, “ I won't!....”. I had one last look at Jerry before I stepped into the hallway, heading to the stairs, then I started the time on my wrist watch, it begins now.
I walked up the stairs to the second floor where my mom was at, stepping into the room, I sat down on the bench there, just watching my mom sleep.
“ I'm sorry mom, I'm really sorry to have ended up this way, you never wanted such a life for me in the first place, but here I am, already putting on those shoes, already gotten myself in a lot of dreadful damages that might ruin my future, I never wanted this, I never planned this, it was never supposed to be this way, intentionally, I got myself into this, this time, you won't be getting me out, not that I am old enough to get myself out, rather because you're not here to do it, to get me out like you always do..... I know that I've been a bad son, but since I've started it, I should be able to end it too, I'm really sorry for all I have done, and I hope you forgive me for what I am about to do, I'm really sorry ”.
I checked the time and realized that I still got five minutes left, time for me to intercept this operation.
