I have been stabbed before. I’ve had knives and gunsaimed at me plenty of times to know what it feels like to be hurt.
But I have had nothing like this.
I’ve had nothing like this pain.
It’s too late for me to even save myself.
This feels serious.
I look down and stare at the handle of my godfather’s knife lodged deep in me as I fall to the ground.
Fuck. This feels fatal…

I’m just standingand watching on as Damon falls to the ground. His fall looks so...unnatural. It is so unlike him. He’s usually all swagger, in charge of everything, but now he’s just falling.
Falling.
Falling.
And I’m watching.
And then my attention switches...
To Eugene.
The knife. Oh, fuck. The knife.
Heaimedit at me. The blade was meant for me, but Damon pushed me aside and put himself in its sights. He got stabbed.
Eugene wanted to killme.
And he still can.
I watch as Eugene quickly reaches again for the knife. This time it’s lodged deep in Damon’s side as he lies on theground. The man doesn’t need to reach far to retrieve it, though.
I can’t run. I’m way too close to the man to escape. I am trapped.
He’s got me exactly where he needs me.
Oh.
But then, to my complete surprise, someone lunges out of nowhere and tackles Eugene. The man flies away out of my sight as he is attacked.
Luke.
He has his own dad pinned against the ground in a perfect football tackle, just like one of the ones he used to do in front of adoring high school crowds. He holds his own dad’s hands down. He has come out of nowhere to tackle his own father.
“Luke!”
Eugene’s voice is breathless. He can’t believe his own son has turned against him.
But Luke ignores him.
He turns to me.
