Walter's father stood in stunned silence, his face contorted with shock and disbelief at the force of Steve's slap.
His trembling hand instinctively reached up to cover his reddening cheek as he gazed at Steve, his eyes filled with a mix of sorrow and confusion. He couldn‘t help but sob, his voice choked with emotion, "But... But I'm older than you... l was the first one to be called Steve..."
Steve's anger only intensified at his words. He slapped Walter's father again, his voice dripping with venom as he cursed, "Why didn't your damn father change your name when he found out l was also called Steve?! How dare you challenge me?!"
Walter's father's face swelled up on both sides, a physical manifestation of his deep anguish. Tears streamed down his face as he pleaded, "Sir, please, now is not the time to blame me for sharing the same name as you... We need to find a way to save ourselves!"
"Save you?" Steve scoffed, his anger unabated as he pointed an accusing finger. "Your damn son has committed a heinous crime, and you have the audacity to ask for salvation? I would rather take matters into my own hands and give Mr. Wade an explanation!"
