I got to my room and grabbed a pair of black gloves and a mask. I then walked passed my candles, do I need one? Might as well, he probably needs it, I walk back to his room to see him laid down on his bed with his eye closed. "Just because I gave you some medicine, doesn't mean that you can sleep right away. It's not going to cure you in an instant." He groggily sat up and watched me as I put my gloves on and lit the candle. "Why the candle? Does it help me?" "No it helps me breathe, your room stinks." I placed the candle on the small coffee table and mask on, I turned to the bathroom and saw the monstrosity of vomit around the toilet seat and bits on the floor. Taking off my blazer and rolling up my sleeves, "So you a cop?" I turned and gave him a questioning look, he pointed at my gun that was at my side. I shook my head and went to the bathroom. "I'd be dead if I was a cop, especially if people knew I lived here." I started to clean the floor, trying not to gag from looking at the chunks. "So what are you? A body guard?" "Something like that." I stood up and flushed the toilet, big mistake, all his vomit clogged the toilet and the water started to rise. I took the plunger and shoved it in there and got busy on trying to unclog the thing. "Do you belong to a clan or something?" "I don't belong to anyone, I kill who I want and get paid for it." I pulled the plunger out and the vomit went down, cringing at how the chunks circled down like a tornado. "So does that mean I can hire you to kill someone for me?" "Basically." I took my gloves off throwing them away and pulled my mask off, I looked at Tanjiro and noticed that he seemed pale and was sweating. "Did you drink your water?" Not answering, he started to sway from side to side and was going to close his eyes until I smacked my hand on his forehead and did the same with my other hand. "Okay, I don't think your fever is that bad but you still have to drink your water." I grabbed the bottle and handed it to him after opening it. He took a small sip but I lifted the bottle to make him drink more. "Finish it, you can lay down afterwards." I walked out and down the stairs and to my surprise the restaurant was still open. Chang was taking orders like crazy and Jian was yelling out the orders to the staff and cooking things like crazy. Why haven't they closed yet? I look to the 'open' sign and see a man turn it on and began to laugh with his friends, really? I walk over and turn it off, "Hey lady! My friends aren't here yet!" I looked at him as he leaned back on his chair. "Then tell them to come back tomorrow." I then faced the crowd, "Alright! Everyone out! we are closed! Those of you who already ordered will stay to get their food to go and so will the people that are currently eating." The man then stood up, "Listen sweetheart, many of us are hungry so why don't you help the staff by serving our food or giving some of these tired men some sugar?" he leans over and once he grabs the small switch of the sign, I place my gun at his head. "Looks like my message wasn't clear, so let me say it a bit different." I then pushed at his head making him stand up straight and put the gun right at his forehead. "If you haven't ordered! leave! if you have take your food to go! If you piss me off your dead!" I gesture him to sit and once he does I place my hand on his shoulder and whispered in his ear. "If you and your friends aren't gone by the time I'm back out here, you can damn well bet your ass I will shoot every single one of you." I smiled and left to the kitchen to get a large bowl, once I stepped foot in the kitchen Jian glared at me. "No guns in the kitchen." I gave him the nastiest glare I could and shoved him out of my way. "You can kiss my ass, you should be happy that I helped you out." "I didn't need your help, You just costed us some money." He said as He followed me, "Hey Ace! You got a bowl I can use?" "Yeah, let me get it for you!" I yelled a thanks before Ace, a kid around Jian's age ran off to find one, I then turn around to look at Jian. "You let this happen didn't you?" "I don't know what you are talking about." I grabbed his face and made him look at Chang. "Look at your uncle Jian, He is tired. He doesn't have the same amount of energy you do." Chang was there happily helping the last customer but the closer Jian looked the more he noticed the dark circles under his eyes and how worn out he was. "You can't be putting so much pressure on him all the time. Yes he can probably still beat someone's ass but that doesn't mean that he can still take on your bullshit all the damn time." "My bullshit?! what about you?! Always walking around with a gun, telling people what to do, as if you own the goddamn place!" "I do it because you are to ignorant to realize what is happening around you!" He glares at me and as we were trying to tower over each other, I mean I was trying, we failed to notice Ace holding the bowl I asked for. "Ahem! Alex here's the bowl." Not looking away I grab the bowl, "Thanks Ace." Jian looked away and glared at Ace, "Ace you are working for me and my uncle, you don't take orders from anyone else." "Hey! You have no right to talk to Ace like that just because he works here!" I said as I pointed my finger right at his face. "I can do whatever I want!" "Alright that's enough!" We both looked at Ace who now looked mad. "If you aren't going to kiss then stop arguing! Everyone is tired and you two are just yelling like a god damn couple!" Damn for a small guy, he has a loud voice. Jian just huffed and walked away, I looked at Ace who was looking at Jian with a look I couldn't read. "Sorry Ace, thanks for the bowl." I turned and walked back to Tanjiro's room.
