Chapter 4 - Showdown

"Knock knock"

"Hold it Ren, Im coming " shouts the maid Maria while running to the door.

She opens the door and a smiling face of her employer's son met her.

"Are you okay?" she worriedly says as she checks for Ren's temperature.

"Your hot, oh my God."

The man held her hands and slowly calms her down.

"Of course im hot, there's nothing new to that"

Maria shows a very disappointing face. "I'm already fifty years old.The only hot thing for me is the sun and compared to the sun your hotness is compared to this."

Maria catches her breaths and blows hard on Rens face.

"Your as lively as always aunt Maria"

"I'm okay, there's no need to worry about I'm just happy. "

"Okay, it's time for dinner, get yourself at the table. Your father is waiting. "

"Hi dad! "

"Sit down, how is school? "

Ren smiles.

"Great, I feel like a man taking the first step in life"

"Well that is a music to our ears isn't that right honey? " gracefully added Sarah

"Well yeah study hard so you can take over with the company "

The young man's expression suddenly dropped. He looks at his dad with a sad and nervous eye.

"Dad, with that I'm not really sure. You have a big company and I think I cant handle it by myself."

" You remind me with someone know. Don't worry, don't rush. You still have time to prepare.I'm sure you can do it. "

The young man sighed.

"I hope so."

The night ended with him entering his room. He hangs his jacket besides the tv and sits in his room table.

Ren closes his eyes and suddenly remembers someone.He brings his phone out and stares at his gallery.

"Ashley's sleeping face is so cute, she became ugly haha"

Suddenly a barrage of clothes came flying on him.

"DID YOU JUST SLEPT WITH SOMEONE? " shouts Maria.

"What? no I took a friend to the university clinic and I took that picture when she is sleeping. What are you doing here anyway? "

Maria raises her eyebrow and looks at Ren in the eye.

"Even if you say so,it's still very suspicious. I mean VERY suspicious."

"Please stop that, please " Ren begs while laughing.

"Aunt Maria,why are you closing your eyes?"

"Eh don't you want to take a picture of me too?"

Maria laughs as she starts fixing the clothes which she will be washing the next day.She glares at Ren one more time before finally opening the door.

"Hey boy one more thing.Don't even think of doing something weird tonight."

"What is wrong with you,stop that " the young man contradicts the other.

He waited for the maid to leave then he eventually locked his door.Fixes his curtains and finally decided to sleep.

5:00 in the morning. Ren's alarm clock starts to get stronger as it wakes the guy up.

"Ugh alarms are so noisy"

"Hahahahaha that is so funny "he says to himself. He got up from bed, turns the tv on and starts the coffee maker.

"What will happen today? I hope I wont be tired. "

He then fixes the curtains on his glass wall .With it, he once again witnesses a wonderful scenario.

From his room which is elevated three levels above the ground, he could clearly see the sun rising and the moon setting from the other side.He stands infront of his mirror and looks at his eyes.

"Why do my eyes resemble so much sadness.Why am I so sad when everyday I'm trying to be happy. Why is my heart in pain evertime I look at myself. "

He stands still and thought back.

"Who am I" he asks himself

Suddenly, his fantasies were broken by a humanistic intervention.

"REEEEEEN, SHOWER TIME "

Ren's body trembles as he cover his ear. He then figured it's not yet time to gulped by fantasies. It's another day.

Ren took his towel and proceeds immediately to the shower. He opens his door and witnesses a bright smile by their maid.

"Aunt Maria, thanks for igniting my day"

"Your parents went ahead of you.They said they have appointments. "

The man then again started to smile,he eats his breakfast and enters his car.

"Bye aunt Maria " he shouts as he waved goodbye"

"REN GOODLUCK WITH THE GIRL HAHA"

Ren then started to drive.

"God,make this a long day please " he mumbles as he plays pop music from his car. The moment his sight returned to the road, adrenaline rushed through his body and he found himself stepping hard on the brakes.

The road is blocked. Blocked by Jason and a couple of guys. Ren immediately steps out of his car and looks at Jason with a violent intent.

"What do you want? "

"You sure enjoyed yourself last time. You beaten me pretty bad."

"Yeah good for you" the hero answers.

Ren gets into position as three of Jason's side kicks rush to him.

He dodged a punch to the head and immediately gave a counter to the abdomen. He unleashes an uppercut to the second guy and an axe kick to the last one.

Clap Clap." Ren Johnson, your devilish side finally came out. Get ready, I won't be gentle as I was before.

Both faces each other and gets ready for a painful clash.Jason walks around ren and looked at the guy fearlessly.

Ren opens his lips. "Are you happy with this? Fine, if you are then try to laugh after this."

The hero began the assault. Ren started with a flashy right jab. Jason dodged seconds away from being hit he immediately returned a quick bold uppercut to Ren's chin which caught him.

With Ren's chin blitzed by a heavy blow, he concentrates his strength to his knees and performs a devastating knee blow which stuns Jason for seconds.

Blows by blow, they throw everything they had.A dozen of unfelt minutes came and they are both tiredly lying on thier back.

"Jason, are you happy with what you are doing " Ren softly says as he tried to get up to his feet.He jumps above Jason and struck him with a heavy fist.

"Don't you know that everytime you hurt someone, others are being hurt? DON'T YOU KNOW THAT IN EVERY FIST THAT YOU UNLEASH, THOUSANDS OF NEEDLES ARE PIERCING PARENTS' HEARTS? DO YOU EVEN KNOW LOVE?

Jason erupts ang angrily kicked Ren out of him. He holds the other in the colar and swayed him violently.

"DON'T YOU FUCKING LECTURE ME! LOVE? FRIENDS? PARENTS? I'M BOUNDED BY CHAINS OF VIOLENCE WHEN I WAS A CHILD. I WITNESSED THE DEATH OF MY BROTHER FROM THE HANDS OF MY TORTURING FATHER AND ONE DAY I WILL AVENGE HIM!"

"Jason you are such an idiot, you are controlled by your emotions. Dont you dare consider yourself a man. YOUR A LOOSER. THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN CONTROL THE OUTCOME OF TOMORROW IS THE ACTOR OF TODAY"

Jason keept quiet and releases Ren's colar. He left in silence as the hero enters his car.

"He is engulped by darkness."
