ALL I LOST : THE FIRST HEIR

The blaring and deep honking of the vehicles coming from the busy road were enough to raise the dead and more than enough of an alarm to wake someone who was into a deep slumber but that wasn’t the case for Alonso.He was way too deep in his slumber which was a result of his jobs. Alonso has been working his ass off on three jobs for a while now and had not slept a full hour. He needed to save enough money to make a memorable birthday for his girlfriend Lyra which is today, and their date was in a few hours.“Hey you, get away from there,” a feminine voice said as she hit Alonso with the bag she held. It took a few hits for him to wake up and out from the lady's store where he was taking a nap. More than a nap I guess.Just like a thief, Alonso took to his heels as he had some deliveries to make and also knew he was going to be in a lot of trouble.“Come here, you idiot, where have you been” an angry masculine voice shouted, while dragging Alonso out of the store. “where have you bee

That is ridiculous, what am I even been charged for?” he asked in a distressed tone“I don’t have to tell you”“But I have the right to know officer, what am I being charged for?” he asked vigorouslySlamming the table hard with what he held, the officer forcefully pinned his head to the table, and Alonso could feel his bones crushing beyond repair, as he gasped for breath“Do you know whose son you just attacked? you should be glad that you are not dead already. Pay up or you rot in jail. You only have forty-eight hours to get the money or else…” he said and left immediately slamming the door hardAlonso felt too weak to take his head back up, but just laid down and cried himself to sleep, he had no one to call and he sure knew no one was coming, he might as well just start getting used to his new home, he thought and gasped for air.After a few hours, he was pulled out and then taken to a different room, where he was locked up with other criminals.“What did you do wrong,” one of th

He didn’t just lose the few clothes he managed or his worn-out pieces of furniture, all he had kept all these years he could use to find his way back home were lost in the incident.All, but an old rusty locket he cherished that he found among the trash. It had always been locked and Alonso believed that when he eventually opens it, it will lead him home.“keep this, I found it on you when I saved you that day, it may lead you home” the voice of the man that saved Alonso came to his mind. This was the last thing the man gave to him before kicking the bucket.With nothing else left to take he placed the locket close to his heart and over his neck and turned to leave a new life.Where do I sleep? Was the thought that occupied Alonso's mind. The loss of the things he cherished had made him totally forget he had so much money in his account, and maybe about his date the next day.He wandered in deep unending thought until he got to a bar, where he decided to waste the rest of his evening

He couldn’t imagine not wearing his locket. “here, this was found in the pocket of the jacket you wore the day I found you, maybe it can lead you to your family” those were the last words of the man who saved him so Alonso couldn’t afford to do without itHe went and gave it a good scrub as he had his shower, but there was no difference, but he wasn’t going to change it anyway.Chatters, giggles, and greetings could be heard from the background as well as exotic cars pulling over, as Alonso arrived at the hotel of the event.The whole environment glittered with sparkling expensive white tux worn by the men and a white dinner dress worn by the ladies with a touch of red by both gender It was an all-night party, and if an outfit wasn’t sent ahead of time for Alonso, he would have been the odd one out.Alonso braced up and showed his locket proudly, forgetting the warning of Perry as he walked to the entrance.“good day sir” the security at the entrance greeted and bowed as he walked in

And to Alonso's surprise, it was James, the same bastard he saw banging the girlfriend from behind.“Perry you and I are made for each other, you know I love you, marry me and not him” James pleaded as he tried to grab Perry’s hand making a fool out of himself“This is my wife, and I would not tolerate any nonsense from you,” Alonso said as he grabbed Perry’s hand before James could get to it. That gesture made Perry smile as she stole a glance from Alonso as he spoke“what about Lyra? I thought you both were a thing, and you loved her?” Alonso asked as he tried to understand why James was always interested in his women.“come on man, Lyra can never be compared to Perry. Perry is way better. Love? She is way below my league, I only used her to cool off stem” James said mockingly at LyraThose words struck deep into Alonso's heart as he remembered the few good times he had with Lyra, and how he loved her so dearly. In a fit of anger, he threw a hard punch at James which threw him to th
