In case you're wondering, this takes place a couple months after Raimundo saw his dad.
I was on the floor of Raimundo's trailer when I landed. It was dark outside. The trailers were in a lot. Raimundo and Tay were sitting on their bunks talking to Fabio, who looked fully recovered, and Tay's parents, who were in their circus outfits. "Now, are you two sure that you'll be fine here by yourselves while we're at the show?" asked Tay's mom.
I was shocked. After what had happened they were leaving them by themselves? But then they were in a different city and, judging by Fabio's arm, it happened quite awhile ago. "We'll be fine," said Raimundo. "We've got pizza and if anything happens, Isabella's at the trailer at the other end of the lot,"
"Raimundo's right. You guys go ahead and have fun. Good luck with your first show Fabio," said Tay.
"Thanks," said Fabio, looking a little nervous and exited. "Don't have too much fun while we're gone,"
"We won't," and with that, Fabio and Tay's parents left and locked the door behind them.
After a few hours of playing video games and cards, they went to bed and watched 'Paycheck'. Then there was a knock at the door. They ignored it. The knock was repeated several times before the person broke down the door. That got Ri and Tay's attention. We all screamed. It was Raimundo's dad. He had an almost empty bottle of what smelled like whiskey and made a fist with the other. He went over to Raimundo's bunk, hit him on the head with the bottle, and dragged him out of the bunk. Tay jumped from her bunk, picked up the game system, and flung it at Raimundo's dad. But he caught it, put it down, went over to her, and started hitting her. I started crying because I thought he was going to kill her.
Raimundo, recovering over the blow he took, got up and started fighting with his dad the way he did with Jack's robots. But Tay was right. Ri was a great fighter, but his dad had a size and strength advantage. He threw his weight against Raimundo, knocking them to the floor, pinned him with his weight, and started choking him. I knew Raimundo would be okay in the end, but I was still scared. Raimundo was panicking. He couldn't breathe and was losing more air by having a 340 pounds on top of him. Then Tay grabbed a skillet off the mini stove, ran over to them, raised the skillet over her head, and brought it down into Raimundo's dad's head with a huge noise that sounded between a crack and a dong. Raimundo's dad went unconscious. Tay pushed him off of Raimundo. His face was completely drained of color, his eyes were wide, and he was hyperventilating. Tay looking the same, knelt beside him, sat him up, and forced him to breathe slower and to calm down. When he finally got the air back into his lungs and relaxed a little, Tay gently hugged him. "And you say I can't use a skillet,"
Raimundo laughed tiredly. "No, I said you can't use a skillet to save your life. But apparently you can use one to save mine,"
"I was so scared,"
"Same here,"
They hugged each other for a while. Then we all noticed Raimundo's dad wasn't breathing.
Cliffie! But I'll update soon! Bye!
