Kyle-Flashback continue

I eased back in my seat. "Okay."

Three pairs of eyes flashed in my direction.

"I mean, Josh has been a pain in my ass," I confessed.

Josh's brows knitted together. Heather's small hands gripped her brother's.

"Right." Scarlet nodded.

"And, he has led a ton of bad guys to our home after he made us run from our old one. All we wanted was peace but that wasn't enough," I continued.

Scarlet wiggled her finger, cheering me on. "No, it wasn't. Peace is not for this boy."

"So, I say, screw it. Let's hand him over to the bad guys and go live out our happy lives."

My words brought joy to Scarlet's face. Heather and Josh, not so much.
