Frankie was laughing with Santiago and the other guys after he won a huge duck plushie at the fair. He had raced against Benny in a shoot-the-duck game and won. But as he celebrated he couldn't help but notice across the fair games an argument between you and another man.
"I said let go!" You yelled at the man, dropping the candy you had been holding as you tried to force your way out of their grasp.
Frankie sighed but he walked over. He almost never got in other people's business.
"She said let go." Frankie said as he stood in front of the two of you. The man glared at him.
"Fuck off." The man said, holding your wrist tighter.
"Is he bothering you?" Frankie asked you. You looked at him for a moment before you nodded. "She wants you to fuck off." Frankie said to the man, his voice not as calm as before, it was more of a command than a suggestion.
The guy scoffed before he let go of you and turned, but instead of leaving he threw a punch at Frankie, which he managed to swerve. Frankie took hold of his fist and turned his arm behind the man's back and shoved him against a wall.
"You better not even think a about putting a single finger on that lady again, you understand?" Frankie said, his voice low and threatening.
