Ralph’s Vengeance

The dark night howled like a wolf giving shivers to the woman who stood in the balcony watching the neon lights far away from her home.

She gripped the railing with her fists popping her veins as if she was battling within herself. She was lost in her own world deep in thoughts when a knock startled her.

She swiftly ran into her room and hid her journal under her bed before opening her door.

“Fiona!! Are you kidding me?”

A red haired girl walked into the room followed by a kissing couple and a man who is busy chatting with someone.

“We agreed to meet at your place at eight. It’s quarter past eight and your still in your pyjamas”

Darla scolded Fiona who stood in the middle of her room rubbing her forehead frustrated. Her friends planned a night out because they graduated from the high school with good scores.

They didn’t want to spend their time in the boring prom, so she herself gave the idea of a night club. They all agreed to meet at her house at eight before going to the party they planned beforehand.

She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn’t take notice of time. Now she was dead if she didn’t cool her friend’s fury.

“Darla! Calm down, I am waiting for you to select my dress”

Fiona grinned revealing her white teeth and charming eyes. Darla looked at her suspiciously dropping her bag on the sofa.

“Who are you?”

Fiona rolled her eyes walking towards her closet. It’s true that she never let anyone not even her friends touch her stuff from her childhood no matter what.

Not even her parents allowed to even get close to her things. That’s how much control she has over everything around her but now her mind was in a mess so she couldn’t talk straight.

“Never mind. Can you wait for me downstairs? I will be there in five”

Thiago who just made a hook up deal with the girl he met few days ago whistled loudly and left the room. Fiona shook her head in disbelief staring at his back.

A street dog is better than him. At least it responds to the people who crosses it but this man is so dumb. Everyone needs oxygen and water to survive but he needs his phone and someone to hook up for his survival.

She then turned towards the kissing couple who glued their bodies like a chewing gum. She held her churning stomach and closed her eyes to calm herself from puking.

“Darla take them out please. I feel terrible”

Darla knew Fiona is not fan of kissing. She can tolerate the sight of anything hugging, kissing neck, sucking breasts, blowjobs and even sex but not a lip kiss. No one knows the reason but they got used to her disgust.

“Just five minutes”

Darla warned Fiona before dragging the kissing couple out of Fiona’s room. Fiona ran her hands through her brunette hair inhaling deeply. Without wasting a second she started dressing up and came down in five minutes.

“Ah! My beautiful daughter”

Logan Wilson stood up from the couch extending his hands to hug Fiona who walked towards them in her sexy black mini dress which reached her mid thighs.

She styled her hair into a ponytail and held a black clutch bag showing off her diamond bracelet. Her lips were bare without lipstick but her natural rosy lips were really tempting.

“Dad!”

She hugged Logan and gestured her friends to stand up. Victoria who just came from her bedroom with a gift box gasped looking at her daughter.

“Oh my!! You look stunning”

Gwen who sat beside her boyfriend stood up pouting her swollen lips. Darla and Neil shared a look shaking their heads meanwhile Thiago was eager to leave for the party as someone’s waiting for him.

“Come on Victoria, Everyone knew that your daughter is beautiful but we dressed pretty as well. Look at us”

Her comment brought smiles to everyone present in the living room. Victoria gave the gift box to Fiona. She opened the box excitedly to see a rose gold chain with a diamond pendant which matched her bracelet.

“Aww…Thanks mom. I loved it”

Fiona kissed her mother’s cheeks unable to control her happiness. She saw it when they were shopping a week ago. She didn’t want to exceed the budget so she compromised with the bracelet.

“You are making us sick”

Darla folded her arms giving a side eye to the trio. Fiona was her parents world. They all grew up watching their care for her. It’s normal for them to bicker every time.

“Enough guys. Let’s go. See you soon dad and mom thanks for the gift”

Fiona dragged her friends out of her home and took a deep breath. It’s time to hit the club. Thiago brought the jeep in front of the front gate. Fiona raised her eyebrows at the red jeep.

‘That’s cool’

The night club she chose was very far from her home. It’s very famous and dangerous because underworld mafia people from every corner of the world would present in this club.

Generally, people under twenty one weren’t allowed to the club but Thiago's brother was a bouncer in the club, so he helped them to pull some strings.

The basement had casino for the dark world meanwhile the top floor was reserved to the common people. When Fiona proposed this night club her friends were so excited and immediately made arrangements for their graduation party.

“This is it. Our heaven for the night”

Neil jumped down the jeep looking at the building which lit with red lights giving dangerous vibes. The girls were scared to get down because of the people who were waiting outside. They looked horrible with tattoos, piercings and few even had scars.

“What’s with those looks cowards? Get down already”

Thiago parked the jeep and looked back at the girls who gripped their hearts with frightened looks. Fiona braced herself and got down encouraging Darla and Gwen.

Neil hugged Gwen and planted a kiss on her cheek which eased her racing heart.

“I am here babe. Cool”

She grinned nodding her head. The five of them made their way towards the entrance. The bouncer, Thiago’s brother stopped them to check the entrance pass. Thiago rolled his eyes at him but Neil hit his shoulder to behave. He’s doing his job and of course he risked it for them.

One wrong move they’ll end up grounded and Thiago’s brother will lose his job. Just when Neil was ready to show the pass they heard a nasty whistle and few howls from behind.

The five of them turned around to see a group of people walking towards them.

“Let them go Walter”

The one in the front spoke to the bouncer eyeing Fiona with his lustful eyes. He looked so disgusting with a cigarette between his dark lips and cheeky smile which made her face twist with disgust.

He gave off a terrible aura scratching his beard with his dirty hands. Fiona turned her face away shrugging her shoulders and gestured Neil to handover the pass ignoring the scoundrel behind her.

After confirming their identity and ticket, Walter gave them access to enter the club. Levi glared the people who ignored his presence with his fury filled eyes.

“How dare that bitch to turn a blind eye towards me?”

He tossed the cigarette aside and entered the club with his people.

“Levi! We should go to the basement”

Finn stopped Levi who is heading towards the top floor in the corridor. They are here to make a deal with the arms dealer. If they fail the task then their master would feed them to the lions.

“We can go after dealing with that woman”

He was a complete jerk. Finn knew it and complained to his master but he didn’t know why his master assigned Levi this task. Levi joined their group few months ago.

He was good at his work but his weakness is his lust. Whenever he saw a beautiful woman, he would take them to his bed by hook or crook and now he wanted that black dress girl.

Thiago met Ria who is waiting for them at the bar counter. He introduced her to his friends and ordered drinks to everyone. They sat at a corner place which was reserved for them to celebrate their graduation.

They were all eighteen years old and just graduated from high school. It’s time for them to start their career plans. For now they just wanted to celebrate their success hoping to get admissions in their favourite colleges.

“To our graduation”

The six of them held the glasses together and squealed before downing them. Fiona shook her head as hot liquid poured down her throat.

“That’s so awesome”

Everyone shouted except Fiona as she was not feeling well after drinking. It’s her first time tasting the alcohol. She didn’t like it as she always preferred wine. She started drinking wine from the age of fifteen.

She loves it a lot and wanted to try vodka but it’s terrible. She put her glass down shaking her head.

“I’ll drop guys. I want wine”

“What? No way. This is our party Fiona. We should get wasted with the booze”

Gwen complained placing the drink in Fiona’s hand.

“NO! I am getting wine”

She excused herself and went to get the wine. Darla shrugged her shoulders sighing

“Round two?”

“Yay!!!!”

They downed another round and another while Fiona waited at the counter for her wine. She tapped her slender fingers on the counter eyeing around the people who are dancing for the pop music.

She squinted her eyes as the disco lights pierced her eye sight. Everyone is enjoying drinking to their hearts content. But she is not happy but why?

She remembered the drawing she left unfinished in her journal. She wanted to draw the view of the city from her balcony but she was distracted by her thoughts and totally forgot to complete the sketch.

She should make time for that drawing tomorrow. She closed her eyes humming to the song thinking about her childhood. How good would it be if she just stayed in her childhood forever?

Her peace was interrupted by the scoundrel she met outside the club. He held her hand which was on the counter and dragged her from the chair. Fiona widened her eyes and screamed at the sudden movement.

“Want to have fun?”

Levi asked with his foul breath spraying on her face. Fiona’s eyes turned red in fury. She was so angry that she lifted her leg and kicked his balls hard.
