A Decision That Would Change His Life

Hugo heard it all. He followed his parents toward their room when they left.

His heart was racing. He didn't know that his mother had gone to his room earlier while he was away. He thought that she was just mad at him for staying out without informing them.

'What should I do now?' He asked himself.

Shaking his head. He firmly stood for what he wanted. 'I have already come through this far to get chickened out. I can't just back down because of my family.' His jaw clenched as he took a step backward.

'I am so sorry, but I have no will to tell you guys everything.' Tilting his head to the side, he went back to the dining table to check if his sister was done eating.

"Go to the room already, Hailey. I'm sure mother and father would want to see you." He uttered.

Hailey couldn't help but nod her head, even though she wanted to ask his brother more about how Rix's owner found him. But she heard the coldness in his voice.

It was unknowingly unfamiliar to her.
