Chapter 28: The Plan
I’m torn between thinking that Lethius was saying the truth or that it was all lies. I can’t read him because he’s good at hiding his true emotions. This was the first time I felt that his feelings were valid and pure when he said that he was doing this for his friend. Maybe he liked the girl and wanted to play the superhero role in her life. I never had the slightest idea that this guy would be serious when talking about someone’s life. I suppose the girl is important in his life.“Okay.” I mumbled and stood up from where I was sitting. I picked up my notebook and pen to use for jotting down the plan.“Don’t you have any questions left?” He looked confused when he saw me sat in front of him. I shook my head and told him that we should start planning.“Merch, I know that you have too much on your plate, but I need you for this to work.”I raised my left eyebrow because he seemed to know more. I waited for him to talk again, but after a minute he did not.We started talking about the p

Chapter 29: In and Out
The long night is over and the sun is out. I looked at the guy to my left, peacefully lying on my bed. I got up and decided to take a walk first. It’s still early, and I wanted to talk with Lethius first before going to school. I was quivering when the touch of the wind tapped my skin. I forgot to bring a jacket with me. Despite the coldness of the morning, I still go on my walk. Left foot then right foot, I was walking like a 2 year old child. Well, I enjoyed doing it, and no one was here, so I was free to do what I wanted to do. When I was in the fifteenth hop, my ears caught a chuckle. Somebody’s here. I stopped myself from doing the next one and turned my back around to see if a person was behind me. But what was strange was that no one was here except me.“Ahh!!” When I turned to face my front and saw a human leaning towards me, I literally yelled. She has this confused expression on her face, and I don’t know how to put this, but she’s checking me out. When she tried to touch my

Chapter 30: His Pleas
As soon as I stopped my feet in front of my room, Lethius’ face was the first thing that I saw. It’s actually okay because he slept here, but his expression that seemed to be teasing was itching my anger to blow out. Instead of having a fight with him and killing him using my eyes, I went inside of my room and rummaged through my things. On second thought, I think I needed to let my frustrations out, and so I marched back to Lethius’ place and punched him in the nose. It feels better to do it right than to let it out on my things. I overheard him say something, but I ignored it and went to fix my things for school. I saw a pen above my desk. It’s not familiar with me because I know all my things are here in my room. This is new. I picked it up and was on the cusp of pressing the button placed on top of the pen when Lethius suddenly mumbled, “Be careful with that. It’s not just an ordinary pen because it can help you defend yourself.” My forehead creased at what he’d said, and without

Chapter 31: The Bosses
I couldn’t stand how they punished the guy. Without waiting for the blood to come to my place, I immediately went outside and slammed the door. I don’t want to smell the iron-y odor of the blood. I was on my fifth step of running from that place when Dos called my name.“That was just normal, Merchaiass. If you don’t know how to control and hide your real emotions, then think twice if you really belong here. I can talk with Raphael about this one if you want. You just need to keep quiet and let me do the talking. I promise you that you will achieve your freedom and be away from the gang activities.” She said this after she lighted the cigarette in her fingers.“You will do that? Why?” I asked curiously. I looked at her intently to see if she was joking, but I couldn’t see any of it in her face. She must really know how to hide her emotions. Instead of answering, she only nodded and turned to me. I don’t know what’s gotten on her, but she seemed shocked when her eyes landed in my direc

Chapter 32: Leon
Lunch time has ended, and I still have a 3-hour class this afternoon, but it will start at 2 pm, so I will leisure myself here in the cafeteria. It’s actually pretty comfortable here, and the food is great. I was at the corner, near the exit of the cafeteria. I chose to sit here because no one can disturb you with their noises and such. The number of people here has subsided and a maximum of 20 are here. The distance between the occupied tables is far, and I couldn't hear what they were talking about. This is nice in this way so that I can focus on thinking about what to do later. I am meeting the most feared boss of the gang, Leon. I remember what Lethius told me. Leon picks the nastiest ways of punishing people and has a short temper when it comes to people he's conversing with. I sipped on my juice while I was still drowning in my thoughts. If Leon was the nastiest, Raphael is the one who should be feared. He uses his mind to think about the possible scenario and not his fist when d

Chapter 33: The Truth Behind Dos
I don’t know what the plan of the third boss is. I couldn’t think of what to expect next after this. Did I make a good decision? I don’t know if Lethius is already aware that I somewhat disobey his plan. I mean, he didn’t mention not touching the second boss as well as Dos. I felt a pang of pain in my back when I was dragging Leon to the punishment room. I don’t have an idea if it’s just a normal bruise or a big cut. I didn’t care, in this moment. I need to know what the real plan of the third boss is. I don’t even know his name. I’m going to ask if he’s all settled here. He ordered me to tie Leon to a chair. I’m familiar with basic tying, so it’s fairly simple for me. I’m not asking any questions, because maybe there’s something in me that is afraid of what may happen if I act in disobedience. The third boss entered and said that we were going below. The hell? What was the purpose of tying Leon to a chair if I was going to carry him again down to what they called “The Dungeon.” Even

Chapter 34: Intriguing Past
“Yes, and we’re here to finish the job. Now, it’s your turn to choose John. Cooperate or die?” John's laughter echoed through the whole room. Because it was built underground, even a whisper could be audible to all of the people here. Lethius and Raphael didn’t flinch with that and just continued, starting with John as an interesting subject.“What I don’t? What are you going to do?” asked by John, who’s currently recovering from an earlier attack.“You know what exactly would happen? Now, I’ll just give you 10 seconds to think. You better choose or we’ll choose for you. And I assure you that our choice is fixed on one thing, the painful one,” Raphael started to walk elegantly towards John while swaying his right hand.“10...”The countdown begins after Raphael puts his hands up and closes it.“9…” “8… the time is clicking, John.”John seemed to be unafraid and just showed Raphael his big smile while oscillating the knife. He’s completely unbothered by the two guys' threat.“7…” Joh

Chapter 35: The Painting
I couldn’t find myself moving after finding out that the painting and I looked the same. What the heck? I’m not sure whether I should be grateful that someone adores me or tense because I was painted by someone I don’t know if they exist or not. I picked it up and realized that it was huge and something was keeping it on the ground. I squatted and began to set unnecessary things aside. I thought that this painting would be the last surprise, but no… there’s more. When I was in the middle of clearing things out, I noticed something that was in the middle of the paintings and waiting for me to see it. Is it an envelope with a seal made of flowers and blood? I don’t know if it’s real blood, but it seems to be less that it’s dried. With curiosity invading my system, I opened it and saw a note. I got the note out and read it. It’s for Taddeio.My dearest Taddeio,I’m just hoping that this letter will find you. I was scared to death if it was in someone’s hand while I was writing this. I kn

Chapter 36: Surprises
My freedom has ended and I’m back now at the studio. Even though it’s already two days prior to what happened in Chess’ house, my memory is still vivid and playing in a replay. I thought the only new thing that happened in my last two days was that I met Chess, and he told me that he was part of the gang, The Kings. Yet it didn’t stop there because when the night had come, I’d met someone who was really close to my heart. The delightful feeling that I experienced when I saw her face again after a long time It was my sister, Celine. Let me tell you how it took place.I was in my room after the talk with Chess, meditating and thinking about what would happen next when the issue in the Liospire gang was done. I mean, it was my job that had been given by Lethius, and I think he saved the one he needed to save when the Kings entered the scene. I was in the middle of my meditation when my mouth suddenly craved water. I stopped it for hours, but I couldn’t take it anymore. This led me to ope

Chapter 37: That Was You?
“Merchaiass!”“Where are you?”“Merchaiass! Please tell me you’re alive.” These were the shouts that I heard when I opened my eyes. I roughly rubbed them when I saw that I was not in my room but in the middle of the forest. With no one here and just by myself. Don’t tell me that I was dreaming again. Or is it not? I mean, the last memory that I remember was when I was walking down the alley when I saw John. I followed him because I thought that he was already dead. Given that he created a ruckus, according to Chess, he must be punished now. But, why was he walking freely and acting like nothing happened? Is it just me that I find this whole situation odd? After that, I went home and took a bath. I also remember lying on my bed. So, I am dreaming. It’s okay, I’m going to wake up real soon and won’t remember anything about this room. Calm yourself and let’s find a way out. Everything that happened felt like it was replaying itself. I don’t know if my life was stuck in a replay and the
