“For now, you are the person of interest. The Avialanché set their eyes on you, Vishnu,” the girl in a black fitted dress said. “The place of their transaction is at the small bar in the intersection between this City and the C City. Red sent me their location. Get yourself prepared,” the girl added. Vishnu adjusted his suit and stared at the girl intently.
“You said last time that everything was fine. Why the sudden change of the situation? Did their boss get his brain back?” Vishnu inquired. Before answering, the girl swayed his hand. These gestures were meant to dismiss her dependents that were silently eavesdropping on their conversation. Her dependents looked at each other and smirked maliciously. As they get what their chief was trying to convey through, the boys in their formal suits followeth the order of their chief.
Warning: violence, expresses suicidal intentions, and abuseThe whole boulevard exudes a serene and peaceful atmosphere. Life near the countryside is as vigorous as life living in the capital. Every person had some business they were regulating: some were unwinding, gazing at the sky while sitting on a seat outside the café; some students in their uniforms were laughing with their friends on their way home; most were on the street giving people a pamphlet to promote their derivatives. Laughter and the eolian sound coming from the wind were soothing. A day without a catastrophe is undoubtedly benign.At the end of the capital, a young man who was on his way home was hugging a pile of books and unexpectedly bumped into the man who was silently standing in the corner outside the public library. Being as thin as those cover girls, the young man had nearly fallen. He was sure he would have fallen if he had not supported himself by grabbing the man’s arm.
Warning: abuse“So come back with me and let me be your slave,” Van offered like it was nothing of a big deal. He was being phony. What he said was out of whim and was hypocritical. Leon knows that Van’s character is bad but what he wasn’t expecting is that it is much worse than he calculated.Leon gets bent out of shape because of this. What made him even more upset was the fact that Van didn’t believe him, again. Not that he was expecting otherwise but he still didn’t anticipate that Van would think he was lying, that he would also think he was ill.“I don’t know what your intentions are but I beg you to leave me alone. I don’t need anyone,” Leon firmly said. He picked up the books again that had falle
“Are you sure this is the place?” Vishnu asks as he avoids banging at other people’s bodies. The bar was thronged with people and most of the customers were in their mid 20's. Nonetheless, even though the bar is crowded, there aren’t any cynical people at all.“Red said this is the place. Also, Leon seems to be hiding here. He’s waiting for you,” Farah retorted. Vishnu’s indifference immediately faltered as he heard Leon’s name. That kid was miserable and he felt amiable towards Leon. He knew him for almost 9 years as they were blockmates in college. He was well-off but he never received any form of affection from any of the members of his family. “I can’t believe you still have a connection with him. I thought you two were over when what happened to your parents happened,” Farah added. She sighed before peering at the dance floor where most people were dancing wildly. “His parents were the re
“Tyler, do you have a cigar?” Jerson asks as he drowsily tilts his head. He was almost in a drunken state. Jerson could feel his world moving around. He closed his eyes for a moment before his lips curved in a smile. “I need to sober up,” he added.Tyler groans before getting up to thwart Jerson from standing. He led Jerson the way back to where he was sitting before and sat there beside Jerson so he could just pull him back if he ever thought of struggling to stand up again.“You need to sit here for a moment, my man, or you might collapse,” Tyler said as he gazed out at the whole second floor. When he spotted the waiter, Tyler called them and asked for a glass of water to help Jerson get sober. He couldn’t believe that Jerson would dare to drink the whole bottle of black label. He could only guess how awful the headache would be because of the crapulence.Meanwhile, Jerson could hear his breath
“I’ll count from 1 to 3. If you don’t shut up I’ll make sure that this fucking gun’s pellet will be served as your last meal,” Jerson warned as he pointed the muzzle at Van’s head. Van, who was cornered by Alec, almost reviled. Van knew that Jerson would most probably do what he said given that he was not in his right state of mind. Alcohol has gotten into Jerson. If he does something to provoke a stimulus that elicits a reaction, Jerson would do what he said and Van wouldn't want to die for something so crazy.“Where the fuck did he get that?” Van clamored. Not only was his neatly ironed white collar dress shirt being held by Alec whose other hand was positioned to punch him, but a gun was also edged at him. Van didn’t feel any fear. All his life, he was battling over his life. A single gun would do nothing compared to the thousands of guns that were waiting for him and would not hesitate to kill him every tim
“Now, could you move a bit, Tyler? I’m afraid that you’ll shield the ammunition before I could even shoot a hit on the guy at the opposite side,” Jerson said. When Tyler heard this, he freed himself from Noah’s grip and stride further behind Jerson. Noah was too stunned to stop Tyler from running away. He really thinks that Jerson was drunk seeing that the bottle of the black label on the table was empty. Although Jerson’s alcohol tolerance is high, he couldn’t possibly drink the whole bottle without getting bibulous, could he? “So they’re moving now. I thought they’ll be reluctant to barter items given that they knew we’re here,” Alec said slowly letting go of Van’s collar. He sighed before he fixed his ruined suit and stroked his unkempt hair.“Same thoughts. I never imagined that they’ll even have the courage to step here. I know the owner of this bar and he’s an ass,” Van stated.Tyler shook his head when he witnessed how those two acte
“Hah! They’re already changing positions,” Van said as he checked his phone for updates. Cole, who is in charge of cyber hijacking, was currently giving them updates about the target’s crusade. It was supposed to be Jerson’s job but they could not reach him earlier and thought that something might be going on around him. Now, seeing Jerson who was assembling his gun through his hand and was very relaxed without a care in the world was making Van frown. It’s making him hype of resentment.Alec holds a grip on the couch’s armrest and secretly puts a recording chip on it. He was disseminating it at the whole building the moment he stepped into the bar to record any suspicious conversation and to get the information about the movement of their quarry. He then puts an earphone on his ear and listens to the recurring events. “They’ll be at the parking lot at nine,” Alec declared while organizing the important details that were being documented.Meanwhile, Noah
Jerson groaned. He was Noah’s decoy and from how he discerns the predicament they’re in right now, he doesn’t have another choice but to heed what Noah plotted. Jerson looked at the four men who were sitting on the couch. One was a bald burly man, another was a man who dyed his hair blonde with his gold upper teeth and the other two were average-looking people who you could see at daily life’s routine. Jerson sighed exasperatedly. He promised himself that he’ll beat Noah into pulp if he makes it out alive. “Isn’t that dangerous?” Tyler asked. Noah laughed again. He sheepishly looked at Tyler with malice and said, “Your guy will make it out alive,” he stated assuringly. “As the saying goes, ‘Bad people don’t go to hell. They’re already there.’ You know Jerson is a walking hell and those old men were bad people.” Tyler didn’t know if Noah was joking or not. He could not guess what the other party was thinking or if he was making any sense. Just by hearing
