Chapter 6

Chapter 6

For the entire week after the whole house shooting thing, Charlie asks if I'm okay about twenty times a day and that's me under exaggerating. Marley also has been going over the top, he doesn't like that the whole incident happened under his watch. Which lets be honest, if Richard was gonna do what he did, he would have done it anyway. Thankfully, Marley didn't know about tue pregnancy yet because if he did, he would literally wrap me up in bubble wrap, I'm not over exaggerating here either!

Bobby and I were just taking a walk, not that we're aloud to do this. While Charlie and the guys are talking in the house, me and Bobby are walking the garden. Which in my mind, doesn't class it as being outside the house which would make it safer right? I know Charlie won't see it this way if he finds out, but he can't expect me to keep a two year old in the house all day without him getting bored.

"Mama, it a bug!" Shouts Bobby from across the garden, he was crouched down looking in the mud at all the worms and bugs, I was gonna need to really wash his hands after.

"Whoa that's quite cool buddy" I smile looking over at him for a second, my eyes kept drifting to the house where I could see Charlie, thankfully he hadn't saw me yet, I knew the type of conversation we would have if he did.

"If you wanna find more worms son, look closer to home" a man's voice says from beside me, I turn my head and once again there stood Richard "I'm not here to hurt you, that was a huge misunderstanding yesterday trust me, I'm actually here to help you" he smiles placing his hands in his pockets as he went, I was obviously very much scared and move closer to Bobby, I didn't need him thinking he was allowed to pick my son up whenever he pleased.

"Why would you wanna help us?" I ask which was the golden question, obviously he wasn't here to actually help us in anyway, let's be real he tried to kill us less than 24 hours ago!

"I'm a man of integrity, it wouldn't sit right with me if I didn't tell Charlie who was the rat in his family" he shrugs which does make me a little confused, why would anyone in Charlie's family be a rat, he doesn't actually see any of his family that aren't me and Bobby "how else do you think I found the main house, your husband spent a lot of time trying to hide that place" he says his hands still remained in his pocket, this made me nervous that he had a gun in there or something, but I'm sure I would see the outline of the gun and just by looking, I couldn't see one.

"How do I know you won't just tell me a random name and have Charlie kill that person?" I ask giving him a look, does he really think that I would have trust him at his word?

"You would be a smart person to assume that but Miya, what would I gain from Charlie killing one of his family members?" He asks pulling his hand out of his pocket, which revealed a white piece of paper "in here is the name of the rat who's been telling me everything" he smiles holding it out for me to take, which I do before he could get the chance to swipe it away again.

"If this person was giving you information on Charlie, why would you just give him up?" I ask looking down at the paper for a second, wouldn't you want the person to stick around to get more information?

"You better believe I got everything I needed from that man before, I don't need him anymore so I'm giving him to Charlie, can take care of my rubbish" he smirks starting to take steps backwards away from me, wait so it isn't gonna hurt us? "Oh and by the way, congratulations" he smiles looking down at my stomach before turning and walking away, this makes my eyes go so wide they could have popped out my head.

"How do you know that?" I ask as he continues to walk away, no one knows anything about that, unless the rat is Bobby and he's just learning to talk.

"I have my ways little Miya, take care now" is all he says before he turns the corner and leaves, I look at Bobby than back at the fence confused but soon snap out it my trance.

I waste no time unfolding the little note to see the name, this is gonna break Charlie's heart.
