My Heart Was Wounded Deep
Chapter 22's

Kikan was happy to feel the wind blowing his hair, while the car drove. Sometimes it's a little fast but not so fast that he doesn't have to raise his voice. He was glad to realize that. Jason's car driving skills are pretty good. "For a kid your age you're pretty good at driving a car." Kikan.

"Enough okay, isn't it?" The arrogant grin Jason showed made Kikan laugh. Then the boy laughed too.

then Jason takes them to the muddy region outside the city to enjoy off road. Kikan clung to his seatbelt.but Jason was not too crazy, so Kikan could still enjoy.As they returned to the asphalt road, his stomach ached from laughing too much, he said, and he hopes to have enough money to offer Jason a buy of gasoline, maybe next week he thought. If he gets a bracelet order quite a lot. Kikan sold almost all of his bracelets, and he considered adding some new models. And trying to raise money.

"You're a great driver" he said.

Kikan guessed that Jason thanked him when he did not hear it, Kikan turned his head and saw his son watching the rearview mirror with a worried expression.

" What's up?" don't tell her." Don't tell me what we did was against the law." If Jason gets a ticket while he's with her, Rey won't be happy. The man was very worried about whatever influence Kikan would give his son.

Jason did not answer. He simply changed gears and drove away quickly, so Kikan turned to look at himself.

There were no police cars following them, but there were people driving so close behind them that he feared they would collide.

" What's up?" reworked. "Why is that guy trying to hit us?"

Jason's jaw tightens. "That's no ordinary person it's Logan."

Fear spreads throughout our bodies, erasing any laughter and joy we previously felt. "Sister of Lori?"

" Yes." Jason said of all the gnashing of teeth. But Kikan can recognize the driver behind them now. Even with a limited view through the Jeep's front window. Logan has changed a lot. From what the eye could catch, the man now let his beard grow bushy.

" Stop the Suit" said Kikan.

" That's not a good idea" the boy said.

" Why ?" exciting Tristan. "He's gonna hit us?"

Kikan's attention was too focused on his son that he could not explain. "You gotta let me down."

" Wouldn't." Jason says. "That's what he wanted. So that he can do anything"

The situation is too dangerous, Kikan is horrified to imagine Jason or his friend being hurt because of him. "Stop now, please!"

Jason frowning. Obviously he was thinking fast, trying to decide the best course of action for them, but Kikan just wanted his son and Tristan out of this situation as quickly as possible.

Then Logan rams his car into their rear bumper, making them jump a little.

" I don't want you in the middle of all this" Kikan said. "Do what I say stop now!"

" No" Jason replied, suddenly acting tough. But they have arrived in the city. He had to stop at a red light, so Kikan removed his seatbelt and jumped down, without even trying to carry a backpack containing his laptop and wallet.

" Go!" Kikan yelled back, "Go home!"

Rey had just finished washing her car and leaned against the kitchen counter opening a can of cold drinks. When the phone rings. He grabbed the thing to find out who called him.

As you might have guessed, it was Jason.

On time. "Hi jas.. , where have you been? I thought you'd drive Tristan home and be right back."

" l..! Papa should be here now.!"

Hearing her son's panicked voice, Rey placed the drink down loudly, making the bottle roll onto the floor. "What's going on? Something wrong, Jas? You okay?"

"I'm fine, but.."

Although Rey wasn't sure it looked like Jason was crying, and it almost left him paralyzed in fear. Jason rarely cried. "Are you in an accident?" Rey immediately snatched the car keys. "Are you hurt?"

Jason cleared his throat, clearly trying to keep his voice from sounding trembling. "No, but Logan saw us... And he's acting crazy. Looks like Logan didn't hit him too hard, and now he's bleeding!"

Jason spoke very quickly, so missed some important details. "He who?"

"Mom."

A kikan? Rey was already at the front door, but when she heard this, she stopped. Inevitably he felt betrayed, as if they were having a secret meeting. "What did you do with him?"

"We happened to meet at Black Coffee, and I.. I want to give him a ride with my jeep."

Rey could easily imagine it. Jason was very proud of the old jeep, of course he would offer to drive home, and of course Kikan would not turn down his offer.

Rey pushed the door open and rushed out. "Where are you?"
