“WHO?”Remi growled.
“Are you an owl?”
“I’m not fucking around here, Riff. Where is she? My sister?”
“Oh,” I said. “Right. Your sister. Fiona? Is that her name?”
Do smart-ass things and smart-ass things happen back…
Remi grabbed my shirt and pushed me back against my door.
“Your face looks all fucked up,” I said.
“So does yours. Now where is she?”
“What the fuck are you talking about, man?”
“You know what? Fuck it.”
Remi stepped back and turned away from me.
He walked through my condo, calling Fiona’s name.
At first I laughed.
He opened the bathroom door and went inside.
I prayed more than anything for him to see Fiona’s bra or something on the floor. Knowing that she and I had been in the shower so many times.
Even though we were always in the master bathroom.
Remi stood at the bedroom door and looked at me.
“Go for it,” I said. “Nobody is in there. Nobody is here but me.”
Remi opened the bedroom door.
I wasn’t sure he’d ever trust me.
Which made no sense.
I saved your life, you giant prick.
Remi exited my bedroom three seconds later.
“I’m not lying,” I said. “She’s not here.”
“Then where the fuck is she?” Remi yelled.
“I thought she was with you. She took off. Pissed at me. Over everything. Nothing I can do to get through to her. How can I? Right? She loves you, Remi. You’re her family. Her brother. You’re all she has.”
“That’s right,” Remi said. “And she’s been here this entire time?”
“Look at you, man. Fucking livid. Wow.”
“Where’s my sister?”
“I don’t know, Remi. As I said, I thought she was with you.”
