Blood's Supposed to be Thicker than Water, chapter 2
Frankito lay in his bed thinking of what could happen, but would it happen?
All he wanted was his dad to be there but he never was and Frankito wanted to make up for lost time as Tre did but now look at this mess it was going to happen.
Frankito went to school with Joey and Estelle so he met them at the 7/11 as normal. Joey was told what was going on but didn't bring it up because it was upsetting to Frankito and Tre was his adopted uncle as he liked to call it.
As Frankito walked down the steps towards the traintrack he forgot where he was going and Joey hauled him up the steps back onto the mainstreet.
"Frankito are you sure you should have come today, your allover the place." Joey said looking out for his best friend, he knew it was hard having something to deal with on his own and worse when you didn't let anyone in.
"Yeah I'm fine just lets keep going..." Joey and Estelle looked at each other continued walking with Frankito to the school gates.
In First Class:
Frankito sat staring out of the window towards the train tracks in his own day dream his teacher Miss Fitsimmons threw a textbook onto his desk as he looked up at her.
"What is so intreaging than work and school, Frankito?"
"Quite alot." He said staring her out he was good at it and he knew she always had a problem with him.
"Excuse me young man, who do you think you are talking to this is not acceptable?"
"Does it look as if I care about you or your stupid class?" Everyone gasped as her face went bright red with ander and frustration at one person, Frankito.
"Go to the principal's office now!" She wrote out a form and gave him it to take to the principal's office.
He waited at the reception like normal. Mrs. Burke sat there going over files and drinking coffee as she scribbled on abscences and dogger cards.
The buzzer beeped as she answered it.
"Mr. Anderson will see you now. "
Frankito stood up like he normally did and walked through and knocked on the door's glass pannel which was covered in frosted sheething and in bold letters 'Mr. Anderson'.
"Frankito how many time have you been sent to my office this semester?"
"I dunno." He said taking the seat as normal.
"What did you do now son?"
"I said I didn't care about Mrs Fitsimmons class and she sent me here."
Mr Anderson studied a letter from Frankito's mother and wrote on it and said softly.
"This time you are excused giving the circummstances of your personal life I would suggest apoligising to your teacher after all... she is leaving soon." Mr. Anderson made an exception for once and Frankito was gratefull as normal.
Lunch Time
Frankito was standing at the smokers den as he waited for Joey and Estelle to show up . Some bigger jocks walked over to him as he inhaled half the smoke.
"Well well well."
The one with the red jersey on said "Aww did mommy write you a letter?" The other two just laughed, Frankito was in no mood for this today and at this time he could feel his starting to hurt with anger.
"Don't worry, soon daddy will he dead.. and your mommy whore can go back to fucking some other poor son of a bitch."
Frankito lost it as he slammed his fist into the jocks mouth blood spilled from his face as he kept going on punching and punching him as he fell to the ground as the other two started trying to hit him. Frankito did the same but they didn't fall to the ground.
Some of the teachers heard the comotion and ran to inspect it promptly.
"Someone call an ambulance." Frankito sat outside the principal's office again while his mother was talking to Mr. Anderson.
An Hour Later
Claudia walked out of the office as she grabbed her sons shoulder. He tried to pull away from her grasp as she tightend it.
"Mom let me go."
"Why shoud I, do you have any idea what you did today?"
"Yeah I did, standing up for myself." Claudia laughed.
"No, Frankito you assaulted him for no reason, you got caught smoking and making everyones else's life a misery in school."
"You didn't know what happend Mom."
"Yes I do, Mr Anderson showed me the cameras, they tried talking to you and you just attacked him for no good damn reason."
"Yeah, that's the point mom, cameras dont have sound."
"Just drop it you are grounded for three months and thats only the start of it."
"Yeah, whatever..." Frankito said under his breath as they walked home quickly.
Frankito sat in his bedroom as Tre and Claudia was arguing. He could hear it from there.
In The Kitchen
Frankito saw through the hidden camera's he made for when Tre was away.
"Come on Tre you saw the tape yourself and you're on his side?"
"Maybe he had a good reason for it."
"They talked to him thats all Tre and your defending him, I thought we were on the same side but it looks like we're not."
Tre sighed as he lowered his voice. "What ever happend to innocent til proven guilty C huh..... or am I going against my oath?"
Claudia laughed as she reall lost her patience.
"He could die... when the found him his head was cracked wide open. Do you think I want to see in all the newspapers? That Frankito Wright, killer at the age of 15? Tre do you want to see that?"
"Of course I don't want to see that who does, you won't shut up to let him speak."
"Shut up Tre he's just like you a bully a pathetic waste of space who no one gives a damn about... He's just like YOU!" Tre slapped her across the face as Frankito stared in shock.
"See what I mean Tre he's going to be just like you." She walked off as Frankito turned off the small monitor and lay on his bed. Asking himself how could Tre do that to his mother.The tears rolled down his face as he heard sobbing in his mom's room, he knew what they were about.
During The Night
Frankito turned on the screen again as he saw his parents talking.
"I'm sorry for slapping you."
"Yeah right, how many people hear that before?"
Tre sighed with his head in his hands. "I don't know okay, I didn't mean it."
"Tre this is getting worse... I forgive you but I need to make sure he doesn't got to jail he could die."
"I know, I know ... what do you want me to do about it?"
"I don't know just something to stop this."
"Its happend its got to run, Frankito will be fine he always is."
"I don't want it to run you know that?" Claudia said walking upstairs but before she did she punched Tre in the mouth as Frankito watched in shock horror at his mothers reactions at this brief momment in time as he got back into bed and the thoughts and aggonizing screams came from Tre as he was beaten black and blue.
All he wanted was his dad to be there but he never was and Frankito wanted to make up for lost time as Tre did but now look at this mess it was going to happen.
Frankito went to school with Joey and Estelle so he met them at the 7/11 as normal. Joey was told what was going on but didn't bring it up because it was upsetting to Frankito and Tre was his adopted uncle as he liked to call it.
