North was so busy working when he received a text from Lady SM to come over to Bachelor's Village because they're gonna have a celebration.
It's been years since Count Knight found his happiness. Although it sometimes confuses the young North because he doesn't know what is real happiness.
'Maybe getting married?' he thought
He already studied but then again, he thinks his knowledge is still not enough. Because sometimes when he's around his bosses are just some crazy bunch of dudes and whenever he asked about something, he can't seem to understand every situation and he just remains silent because even if he asks they'll always say it's an adult thing and he's still innocent.
But one thing that he wanted is to experience having friends and how it feels to be in love. Why? Because that's what he always sees in the Count's house. When his 'friends' were there along with their lovers.
'They all seemed so happy. How does it feel like it?'
While North is readying himself self the Count called him.
"Yes, boss?"
"You piece of bullshit! Why does it take a lot of time for you to come here you piece of shit?!?? If you don't come here this instant you'll be dead!"
North suddenly felt so scared hearing the Count's word. What he says he does.
So he hurried and went to the Bachelor's Village.

When he entered the village it seemed so quiet. 'Where're the people here? There's no one in the road or even kids playing outside.
"Come on what's with this?" He mumbled
He thought maybe the village was attacked again by the Triad so he braced himself for any movements. And when he was nearing the house of the Count. His heart was beating so fast that he could even hear it.
He tried to knock and no one answered.
"What the fuck?" He whispered
'Where the hell is everybody? And where's the count? Lady SM? What about the kids????' he thought
"Hello? Is anyone here?" And then again no one answered
He had no choice but to kick the door never caring it'll break or if the Count will kill him for breaking his things especially the door.
When he went in, it was all black..it was so dark that he couldn't even see a thing.
"Hello?? Is anyone here? If no one will answer I would blow this whole house!" He shouted.
Suddenly the lights turned on. Revealing all of the count's friend, his Butler Cloud and beside him was the Lady's Butler too, the Marquess. NK and KN looked at him cheerfully. And now that he has a clear look at all of them, they were wearing birthday hats. And much more a hanging poster and banner was indicating a 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY'
"Wait what? What's going on?"
Then all of them started to sing.
"Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you..happy birthday our dear North...happy birthday to you....."
Then everybody clapped and cheered for him.
'Today is my birthday? Why didn't I know?'
"Don't tell me you don't motherfucking know????" The count furrowed his eyebrow with a frown while looking at North.
"Ugh, I guess?"
"Well?....." Val says
"HAPPY MOTHERFUCKING BIRTHDAY NORTH!!!" all of the lunatics shouted while cheering for him. They were giving gifts and giving a hug and fist bumps on North. They were spreading craziness all around the house. They were a bunch of men's but baby in the head. North wondered why they are like that. They were so happy laughing and getting crazy. Lady SM came near him and gave a gift also while kissing his cheeks.
'Is this what they call happiness?' he thought
"Happy birthday North. You shouldn't forget this day. It's a very special day how could you forget about it?" Lady SM said
"Sorry, Milady...I was just uh...busy?"
"Busy burning corpses?"
"Well, maybe I guess? And I uh...I was cleaning Boss Knight's mess while he was on a mission a few weeks ago."
"You should take a break sometimes..you know? You can take a vacation if you want? You can switch with Dimitri's"
"Nah, there's no need Milady"
"Yep, I guess Mi Reina is right..you could take a break sometimes..or a vacation for maybe 6 months?"
"But that's too long Boss"
North was about to insist when lady SM cuts him.
"No buts. North..you can take a vacation starting from now."Lady SM said
"But I have one last request to you by the way"
"Ok?" North nodded
"You have to clean the Racini Hotel and burn the corpses there. You already know where to take them, and no one must know that place, I know you already know that but yeah I need to be sure" Knight looked at North with a serious face.
"Affirmative boss"
While the fun was getting alive North was sitting in the corner watching the lunatics playing child games again and North just watched in disbelief. They're a bunch of scary dudes but they're like this? How can they do that?.
I'm not that numb to never feel anything but I really don't..maybe I can but it fades away in an instant. Sometimes Dimitri would say I'm such a cold dude. 'Am I that cold dude?' and they always say I'm innocent but I curse a lot. I don't know it's my expression so I curse.
When the lunatics left one on one. They started to clean the mess they've made and arranges things up. Knight went up to his room together with his wife and with the kids. They can't help cleaning since they need to keep the kids asleep.
"What the fucking wrong with the fucking Count's friends?! They make a lot of mess and they even left us with it!"
"Say no more Marquess" Cloud said
"I fucking hate that Count. That Hijo de puta!"
The 3 of them left the Marquess alone cussing the Marquess and just do what they need to do.
"By the way North you can sleep over here if you want" Cloud suggested
"Yeah, there's a lot of room in the Count's house" Dimitri agreed
"Ah, no thanks. I have things to do" North denied their offer and continued cleaning until they were done. North bid a goodbye to the 3 and went outside the village. He was carrying a big backpack containing all the gifts the lunatics gave him. Including Lady SM, Jacques, Cloud, and Dimitri. It was so heavy that he thinks he was bringing some tools for camping.
"What did they gave me? It's really heavy"
North was walking alone in the street because it's already 1 A.M, and for sure he can't find any vehicle near the Bachelor's Village. While he was walking in the silent road. The heaviness doesn't bother North since he's used to it. Well carrying some dead bodies is as easy as cleaning so it's no big deal. After a while he notices some figure not too far away. A sitting figure in the center of the road. He hurriedly went to the figure and when he gets nearer he can see that it's a girl. A girl sitting alone on a lonely road. He really can't see her face because it's still dark and the strands of her hair were covering her face.
"You ok miss?"
'Is this even alive?' he thought to himself
"Hey...uh what you're doing right here? It's pretty dangerous. Go home now."
"Home" He heard the girl mumbled.
"Where are you from? I can take you there." The girl looked up to him but her hair was still covering her face.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you but I don't have any home." North was thinking if this girl was just joking or not.
"Well I guess everybody has a home miss"
"You thought the wrong dude"
The girl slowly stood up. She was not that literal beggar you see wandering around(because that's what North thought first) but this girl has decent clothing. But he can't see her face.
"Well, I guess I have to start finding that home. Bye mister"
The girl slowly walked away when North shouted to walk her home but she just waved.
'Everybody has a home? Why doesn't she have?'
