By Steve Baxley

Part 9:The Wrath of Roberto

Roberto Charlando was so angry at what he saw on the TV before he tossed a brick at it, his henchman Herc came in, "Boss" Herc said,"I just heard about what happened,I cant believe it"Roberto was so filled with rage he took a gun and fired 6 shots at the door,"DAMNIT!!" Roberto said, "Herc, get the limo,tonight, the old man gets a taste of Lions revenge!" and they hurried out the door and towards the limo.
herc sped off as roberto took a doctors bag out and grabbed a machine gun and some grenades,as they turned on the road where ernesto's house is and began shooting .."OLD MAN..THAT IS FOR YOU !!!" Herc then threw a grenade that hit the family's florial delivery truck and distroyed it,and they sped off in a hail of bullets.
Ernesto and Analya saw the commotion at their house,"oh my god" ernesto said , "that bastard Roberto, he is going to pay for thi..." Ernesto clutched his heart and slumped to the ground in pain, Anayla went to his side "FATHER,NO!!!!"she screamed as tears streamed down her face, the nighbors helped as an ambulance was on the scene and rushed ernesto to the hospital.
At the hospital Analya was on the phone and called Ruiz,Ruiz heard about the incident and was angered beyond belief,"That Bastard! I want to kill him, and if father dies, Roberto will rule the day he messed with us, what ever you do Analya DO NOT CALL LUPITA!. she doesnt need to know just yet..but there is something you can do.." As Anayla and Ruiz talked, Roberto's henchman Herc was within ear shot of the conversation. then as Analya hung up the phone, Herc used it to call Roberto "Roberto, its Herc, yep, he's in the ICU they say it was a massive heart attack" Roberto laughed , "excellent Herc, what else you got for me?" herc spoke up "you know that Anayla dame?, well I overheard her talking to some one , i couldnt quite catch all the conversation, but Lupita was mentioned.." Roberto's eyes were red as fire his hands clenched as if to strangle a person. "Damn her, Damn Her and her whole family, I shouldve done them all in when I had the chance!. Herc, pick me up outside the chalet and then head to the hospital, weve some unfinished business to attend to, then ready the private jet." Herc was puzzled "what for boss?", Roberto said in anger " because after we deal with the old man, Lupita will wish she was with her mama on that plane"and hung up.
the next day dawned, and Anayla was in the hospital awaiting word on Ernesto, the doctor came with a smile, "Analya, the test are complete and your father is going to make it", Anayla was happy and hugged the doctor "can I go see him doc?", teh doctor smiled and said "yes Anayla, and give him my best , he can go home tonight" . Anayla was pleased to see her father up and around. "Papa!!" and gave him a big hug Ernesto looke dat her and smiled " ahh my anayla,you dont have to worry about me, I am strong like bull, and stubborn like ox, does Lupita know what..." Anayla shhhed ernesto, "Lupita dont know, I didnt want her to worry an druin her night, but she did send you a card". Ernesto smiled as Anayla read him the card and told about how happy she was and all about Stefan..
"Anayla, lets say we surprize Lupita this weekend, I want to meet this boy who has won my lupita's heart !' Anayla smiled and said "sure papa,but first we must go to the Miami Herald first thing tonight" Ernesto was confused "Why to the newspaper anayla?? what are you trying to do??" Analya explained but didnt mention ruiz as was her promise to her brother. "NO!! I will not hear of it!! Ernesto exclamed! " Let her memory rest!!,Analya was defiant "But papa, you want to find proof ,and put this madman away, teh one place is the hearld"! Ernesto ,with all his bullheadedness couldnt argue when logic was made, "You are right my daughter, we must put an end to all this , and find turth where it lies, let us go".
As Analya drove Ernesto to the miami herald, a limo was right behind them, it was Roberto and herc in the next lane, roberto smiled as he passed her in the limo, Anayla shuddered and muttered to herself.."Ruiz, I hope you are right about this,for not only our sakes, but for lupita's too "
