Mentiras
Angel and Ez grabbed Happy from behind. I grabbed a chair. They pushed him to the chair as I grabbed the ropes to tie him to the chair. I was tying his arm as Angel tapped my shoulder.
"Hey, gun." He waved his hand. I looked up to him. I slowly got up.
"Why?"
"Just give it to me." I rolled my eyes and I reached from my back pants. I placed the gun on his hand and I stood next to Ez.
"You know who we are?" Ez asked Happy. He didnt as a word. "Nothing?" We both looked away.
"I don't need to know who you are." Happy finally spoke out.
"And why's that?" Angel asked as he crossed his arms as we turned back to him.
"Because when this is over, either I'm dead, or you're dead." He looked at me. I stood there.
"Dont listen to this bullshit." Angel said to me. "Lets look around, maybe we'll find something." We all spread out and looked. I went to the spare room. Digging through old papers and photos of Happy and some people, one of them was Jax Teller. "Anything in the bedroom?" Angel said as I walked in the kitchen. They were still in the rooms, looking.
"Not yet." Ez told him.
"Nothing." I said as i looked at Happy. The dog was still barking, he didnt stop. Ez and Angel came in.
"Didn't find much, just some old probation shit." Ez said as he flipped through the files.
"Yeah, just these." Angel sets down the guns he found. "Let's see what he knows." He nods at Happy. We all walked up to him. Angel took off the sock he had in his mouth. Ez grabbed a chair and sat face to face with Happy. Angel and I stood behind Ez.
"Nine years ago, Someone kicked open the back door of my family's butcher shop. Shot our mother in the neck. Murdered her. I saw someone drive away in a car. I remembered the car. I remember shit. I followed you that night. Chased you to the construction zone. I saw your face. I remembered every detail of it. I know you're the one who killed our mother." Ez straight up told him. He didnt say a word again. He just stared at us. "We know you a triggerman before you were SAMCRO. You were Nomad, gun for hire."
"Who the fuck hired you? Mm." Angel said as he got all up in Happys face. "Simple question. We need a simple answer. Just a name." He didnt budge.
"Fuck this." I whispered as I looked away. He wasn't going to say anything.
"Was it the cartel?" Ez spilled. Angel and I looked back at Ez. Why the cartel?
"Galindo?" Angel shockingly spoke.
"What?" I questioned
"Why the fuck would Galindo want Mom dead?" Ez turned back. He pulled us to the kitchen and pulled out his journal to show us.
"I don't get it." Angel shook his head. " What the fuck does this mean? "Ignacio Cortina, Isabel."
" Where'd you find this? Why why were you writing all this down?" Ez never answered to him. Angel gave me the book. I knew dads real name, but me putting the pieces together, Isabel was moms real name. I closed the book and I touched my lips.
"When all that shit with Potter was going down, I found a lockbox in the house. Had old legal documents, Mom and Pop's stuff, a few pictures.
Isabel Varela, Ignacio Cortina those were their real names. They didn't meet on some farm in Tecate.
Dad was a cop. Policía federales. I saw pictures of Pop with Jose Galindo. That's why I asked Happy about the cartel." Ez sighed. "I don't know anything else." Angel scuffs and looked at me.
"You knew about this?" He asked me. I looked up to him.
"Only dads real name on his birth certificate. I came home, the lockbox was open, I went through the photos, and his birth certificate, thats all I swear. But mom? Fuck." I ran my fingers through my hair. Mom was a policía? I wasnt named after her? Isabel? This got me heated. They lied. But why lie?
"Okay." He whispered. He threw a punch to Ez. He went down hard.
"Hey!" I grabbed Angels shirt and punched him. We all started to throw punches. "Assholes!" Ez threw a punch at me, I threw a punch at him, Angel and Ez, Ez at him, me at Angel. It was just a mess. We all fought.
"Bitch!" Ez yelled at me as I punched his chest. Ez went in for another punch but ended up punching Angel.
"Fuck you!" We all said. Angel swung and hit me hard in the face. I fell back, tumble down to the floor.
"Shit." Angel kneeled down. I punched him in the face. He fell back. I sat down, leaning against the cabinet doors. Angel followed. Ez went to the freezer and threw us frozen peas. Ez sat down after that.
"You got a little-" Ez said as he pointed at my nose. I wiped my nose, great blood. I wiped the blood off. I placed the pea bag on my nose. Ez on his eye and Angel on the side of his head. "It wasn't my place to tell you." Ez spoke. We all looked at him. "Dad knew I saw it. When I finally asked him about it."
"Im sorry I didnt say anything to you." I looked at Angel.
"He said nothing." Angel whispered.
"Yeah." Ez sighed. "Everything that's gone down between us, Angel even if I could have-"
"You both should have told me." Angels voice cracked. "He should have told me." He looked down.
"Dad?" I asked.
"Man, he never trusted me with anything." He shook his head. "Mom neither."
"Come on, man, that's not fair." Ez said to him
"Fair? You have no fucking idea." Angel raised his voice as he looked at him. "Fair. Every time I walked into a room man, for as long as I can remember, Mom and Pop there'd be this this slight letdown. You know? Disappointment. Cause it was me instead of you guys." Angel sniffs and laughs it off "Oh, man, saying it saying it out loud, sounds fucking pathetic.
But you live with that for 20 years or more."
"I'm sorry." I held his hand.
"It ain't your fault. But sometimes, man, I fucking hated you both. Just the sight of you guys. It would be a reminder that I'm some kind of fucking you know, some idiot. A fucking mistake." He shook his head.
"Angel, nobody ever thought that." I told him. I made him look at me. "No matter how much of a dick you are. You're still a dick. I love you. Nothing is going to change that."
"Yeah well, they loved you more." I scuffed. "What?"
"I might've been daddy's little girl, but I knew deep down, i was some type of forgotten kid. The third child always gets ignored, so to say." I played with my fingers. "Mama was the only one that I actually who thought who loved me, no matter what I did. She cared more than dad. papi always cherish Ez for his smart brains, who doesn't fuck up. Angel, he looked out for you even if he doesn't show it. For me? I had to earn that shit. I had to win his heart. I feel like I annoyed him. Every question, every answer. Every comment. Every look. Dad seemed like he wasn't but i knew there was a problem. Why do think I joined the soccer team? For him to be proud of me and not have him say dont be lazy like Angel. Why do think I got all A's? For him to see how good i was and not get yelled at and being told to be more like Ez. I wanted the attention. I was jealous yeah." I choked up. "For god sake, dad barely talked to me for months when mom died. Never called me Marisol. You guys, you stood by my side. You guys didnt care what I did. Because you loved me and it doesn't define who i am."
"Poor little Angel." We all looked up. "Poor little Marisol. Nobody loved them." Angel sighed as he got up.
"Dont bring her into this." Ez said to Happy. We all walked up to him.
"These are for his kills, right? The smiley faces?" We looked at his lower side. Smiley tattoos.
"Yeah."
"Which one you think was Mom?" Angel asked. Ez pulled out his knife.
"Your pick." He gave me the knife. I looked at the knife and got near Happy. He started to breath heavily. I dig the knife into him, Happy grunting in pain. I cut out the piece off skin. He looked at me while i was doing it.
"This one." I said as I looked at him. I gave back the knife to Ez. Angel and Ez were stunned as I walked to the kitchen table. I set my phone on the table, no text messages. I brushed my lips against my thumb. Angel and Ez came to sit down, giving me a beer.
"His phone keeps blowing up." Ez said.
"I know." Angel answered.
"Someone's gonna come looking for him." I told them.
"I know." Angel repeated. I didnt touch the beer.
"Fuck. I'm sorry, guys. This was stupid. I don't know why I thought that-"
"Hey, hey, hey." Angel cuts him off. "It was my idea to come here and do it this way."
"It was all our ideas. Youre not alone Ez." I touched his arm as i told him.
"This dude's just a fucking stone." The dog was still barking. I cancelled the noise as I looked at the beer. "Shut the fuck up!" Angel yells at the dog. The dog whines and stops.
"So now what?" I said as i licked my lips.
"He's right. It's gonna have to be him or us." I clenched my jaw.
"Jesus."
"Hey." Angel whispers as he leans in. "We make it look like a break-in. Gotta be hundreds of people with a motive to kill this guy. Cops ain't gonna dig too deep. Hey. We get the guy who pulled the trigger." I shook my head.
"Without ever knowing why." Ez told him as he referred to moms death.
"Some shit, little brother, we're not supposed to know."
"I just wanna know, thats all. Just a name." I whispered. Angel and Ez looked at me. We all looked at Happy.
"Hey, we'll go at him one more time." Angel sais as he put his hand on mine. "Then we end it." The boys stood up and walked to Happy. I slowly walked up behind them.
