Seeking Karma Read Online Free PDF Page A

Why did some random guy take up for me?  None of this makes any sense.  “Do you know who the guy is?”
         Anna takes a deep breath.  “His name is Trent Evers.  He’s one of Aaron’s frat brothers.”
         Oh My God!  I know that name.  That’s the guy Aaron introduced me to the other day , at McDonalds.  So, why did he take up for me?  He’d looked so familiar.  Maybe I do know him.  Shit!  I really need to talk to him.
     
     
     
     
     
    CHAPTER 11
    TRENT
     
         I’m lying on my bed, tuning my Les Paul.  It’s been years since I played, but ever since Karma came back into my life, I can’t get that fucking song out of my head.  I e ven downloaded it onto my phone. I play it on repeat while I go to sleep.
         There’s someone banging on my door.  I know exactly w ho it is.  I also know what he wants.  I choke the neck of my guitar.  “Yeah,” I call out to him.
         Dave pokes his head inside the door.  “You got a minute?  I need to talk to you about something.”
         Yeah, the something he’s referring to is that dumbass, Aaron.  He came home from the hospital last night.  I’ve got a pretty good idea where this is going.  I carefully lean my guitar up against the wall.  “What’s up?”  I cross my arms over my chest and lean back against my head board.
         He steps inside and closes the door behind him.  “I’ve been talking to Aaron, about what happened.”
         “And?,” I’m just waiting for him to tell me that the cops are on their way.
         “He said that there’s only one way he won’t press charges.”  I arch my brow at him.  Of course, only Aaron would come up with a punishment worse than jail.  I bet he’s really en joying this, the son of a bitch!  He’s never had to strike one lick at anything.  He was fucking born with a silver spoon in his mouth.  Everything seems to fall right into his lap.  Hey, I’ve just had an epiphany!.  These are all the things that make me dislike him.  However, seeing the way he was ready to hit Karma, is the main reason, I fucking hate him.  The way he didn’t hesitate to shove her onto the ground, in front of the entire frat, makes me think he’s hit her before.  I grind my molars together, just thinking about it.  I wonder what he’d do if she ever threatened to press charges?
         “He wants you out.”  Dave says, dragging me out of my thoughts.
         “Of course he does.”  I say dryly.  Who am I kidding?  There’s no point in trying to fight it.  I’ll lose.  I push off of my bed, and pull a bag from underneath the bed.  “I’ll be gone by the end of the day.”  I begin cramming all of my shit into the bag.  “Dave,” I say, stopping him before he walks out. 
         He turns back towards me with a solemn expression.  “Yeah?”
         “Keep him the fuck away from me, until I’m out of here.  Do you understand?”  I know there’s no way in hell I’ll be able to control my temper around him.
         He nods his head a couple of times.  “I don’t think you have to worry about that, Trent.  His nose is broke n, he has three cracked ribs, and a slight concussion.”
         Hearing all of his injuries makes me smile.  “Good.”  I watch him shake his head at me, and my grin widens.  Fuck them all!  I know exactly wh ere to go.  When I was accepted into this university, my brother offered to let me crash with him.  He rents a townhome about ten miles off of campus.  The only reason I’d refused his offer, was because I got into this fraternity.  Well, look where that got me.  I grab my phone and dial Jude’s number.  He’s my adopted parent’s biological son, and is eight years older than me.
         He answers on the third ring.  “What’s up , man?”
           “Does your offer still stand?”  This is how we are - we don’t waste time on hellos.
         He sighs loudly.
