Chapter 2 Two

His feet scrunched the ground as he ran through the dark, noisy ally. Weird noises,,,groans coming from the beat up men who lay on the floor beaten.

His heart played loudly in his ribcage making him almost deaf due to how fast his heart was beating.

He was scared. A foreign feeling for him,all his life he had been pampered and spoilt. He never got hurt or the need to feel scared but now, here he was....

An ear piercing scream came from the darkest part of the ally which ignited a new fear.

He sprinted and ran with a full force. Fear, fustration and anger all fueling him to get the heck my

' how did I get myself into this fucking mess ' he kept asking himself but he already knew how..

*****Flashback*****

With his mom still on him and his reddened face he pleaded with his mom in hopes to get her off him

"Please mom I promise you that, that would be the last time I would call you old. Just please stop crushing me with your damn weight" he breathed all in one

Smack. She hit him again at the back of his head.

"Are you calling me fat, Jayden? Are you seriously adding to what you called me previously?" She questioned him aggressively

If it was possible, she would have added more weight just to keep him crushed.

"N-no I o-only s-s-said to please,,get,,off me" he managed to make a sentence since the air around him was getting small

He was starting to suffocate under his mom's crushing weight.

"That was not what I heard Jayden. I may be old but one thing for sure is, I ain't deaf. You calling me old mate" she said picking an Australian accent again.

"Mom,,please get,,off me." He begged as beads of sweat dripped off him and into the sofa.

She didn't even budge but amusement was clearly dancing in her eyes. Her egonistic son had never begged anyone in his life before,,,well until now.

"Mom please,,I feel like am dying here. Please" he begged again and it was like music to her ears.

She hit him lightly on the head this time and gently lifted her weight from him but not completely. Just enough to allow air through and stop his reddened face.

At that little gesture his face quickly regained their colour slowly while he breathed heavily.

He was drenched in sweat like a person who just had a nice workout.

"Breathe all you want cause you are free to do that. But I am not letting you off the hook that easy" she hissed

"Why, I already said please isn't that enough already?"

She snorted "if you had said that earlier I might have just considered but now I change my mind" she folded her arms and faced the other way

She looked like a child who was mad at her father for lying.

"What?!" He gwaked at her " you what? You changed your mind?" He stared at her from the corner of his eyes like she was stupid

"Yes Jayden. I changed my mind, got a problem with it?"

"Yes I have a problem with it. He is that any of my business and how is changing your mind affect my predicament" he yelled obvious, he was furious but this woman sitting on him does not give an actual damn.

"Is that how you talk to your mom?!" She yelled also while giving him the killer look.

He seemed to have forgotten that he was at her mercy. She had been fueled by his stupid outburst and so using all the strength and weight she had, she resumed crushing him.

"...Arhhhh...." When she heard him scream was like music to her ears.

"I hope you are enjoying this as much as I am Jayden, cause if you are not,,,well am sorry because I am having one heck of a time"

"...Ahrrrr..it hurts...please...I am ready to listen to you. Just please stop." He thought he was going to have fun with his dear Mom. Just like old times,,,well not everyone gets to experience things like old times.

She rolled her eyes at his stupidity. He should have made things easier for himself and her.

"Take a good look at your room Jayden. What do you see?" She questioned him again like a cop interrogating his or her suspect.

"Damn it mom, I can't see anything besides this sofa and your butt which is currently squinching me"

Smack,,,she hit him hard as she had turned red from embarrassment. This stupid son of hers...he could have just keep shut and not mention her butt.

"Ouch,,,why did you hit me? I only stated the obvious. You have been hitting me for sometime now and I can say that this is the third time you are hitting me. Damn,,,,and on the same spot."

"Could you just be quiet and listen to what I say you dummy? You have been blabbing all morning and you are a man, might I add. You are going to be a father someday and this is how sharp tongued you are?"

He snorted at the mention of the word father. He does not see himself in years to come as a father. He rolled his eyes at his mom's statement...two offences in one. Wow!

"You know, if you keep distracting me. We might never leave this position and by that time, you might have been dead due to suffocation" she commented at his lack of observation.

"I know and trust me when I say that I want to get the hell away from you."

"I would pretend that I didn't hear that." She moved from sitting on his head and placed her butt on his waist."now, back to business. I believe that you can now take a proper look at your room. Can't you?"

"I can Mom, now what is your point?" He asked while placing one hand under his chin to support himself on the sofa. He had a bored expression on. Clearly he was uninterested in whatever his mother wanted to say.

"My point is Jayden,,That I want you to clean up your room and make yourself ready for breakfast. And for the rest of the month, you have to wake up, tidy your room before breakfast."

"Ugh,,," he let out an unsatisfied groan "is that really necessary?"

"Yes Jayden. It is, and that is the only way I am going to change my mind" she huffed

"Fine. I agree, now, get off me" he hissed angrily at his mother and tried shoving her off.

She laughed at his failed attempt as she stood up from him.

He straighten his disheavled clothes while mumbling inaudible words.

"You know,," his mother started "when I came into your room, the only thing that ran into my mind was how to get you off that bed of yours and possibly get you to at least clean up your room. Am glad my plan worked out" she said with our joy evident in her every words

He stopped his cleaning procedures as he turned to look at her straight in the face shock written all over them. How?

She laughed "didn't expect that did you?" He moved his head sideways, indicating a no.

"Now, do I call this two birds with one stone?" She asked as she stroked her chin "oh, come on Jayden. Don't give me that look. Be happy, I just thought you a lesson and it is, for you to be thoughtful"

"Yea,,,how did I not see that?" He let out a sartistic smile

"At least you inherited it from your father? He was so dumb I tricked him times without numbers." She laughed while removing an imaginary tear from her eye

He snorted at the mention of his father and how gullible he had been.

"Hey,, come on, lighten up. We have other things to do. So, I want you downstairs in the next ten minutes"

"What? How do you expect me to do all of these" he guestured at his room "and get ready in time for breakfast at the expense of only ten minutes. How mom? How?" he continued his rambling

"Oh....I thought you were giving me the cold shoulders. You can talk? Nice, I thought you only snort"

"Mom" he groaned "be serious for once. I don't have super powers here"

"You asked for this, and besides... it's all part of the deal." She said before walking out.

With a tired groan, he sat on a stool in his ever, so luxurious room.

He took a glance around the room remembering all that had happened a while ago before he started laughing.

He laughed so hard he fell off the chair and on the floor he lay, rolling, unable to stop the laughter he had been holding for long.

He remembered the look hiss mother had when he called her old. She was not going to admit it anytime soon that see was old but who cares.

He was not going to say it to her face now,,,but he loved her. She is his mom after all?

Still trying to sobber up from the drama that had just happened, he took a glance at the sofa his mom had crushed him on earlier. Another burst of laughter erupted from him.
