After he got his wife's message, Ben had stayed long enough at the office to close a few accounts and shred a couple pages before he was rushing out of there like a bat out of hell. He didn't know who these men were that had come to the house looking for him, but whoever they were it didn't sound good. The second Lucy had said the words Ben had made up his mind to play it safe and get his family out of there. Ten to one? It had to do with his drug dealings, and he wasn't about to let his family suffer more then could be helped because of that.
The entire way home and while Ben rushed around his and Lucy's bedroom, packing up their things, Lafayette was in the back of his head telling him he should have been more careful. "Yeah, I know that Lafayette, not really helping at this point," he muttered to himself as he threw a bunch of clothes into another suit case and zipped it shut.
"Luce! Get Tommy, it's time to go!" They were dropping Tommy off at her brother's and going off by themselves for awhile. He didn't have much of a plan after that, he just knew they needed to disappear. For how long? He couldn't really say. Hopefully this would all blow over and they could come back safely to get their son and make a new life somewhere else. Somewhere where nobody knows their name.
