Chapter 19 - Short Continue

(Ezekiel stood there confused until Chimon suddenly moved. SMACK! Ezekiel's eyes enlarge and his head uncontrollably turns to his right. Ezekiel's cheek slowly becomes a slight pink)

Chimon-" Didn't I say get better?! This is rarely what I meant!"

Ezekiel-" I got better, haven't I? I did what you wanted"

Chimon-" Are you talking back at ME?! UGH!"

(Chimon pinches the skin in between his eyebrows)

Chimon-" You're free to leave. Come back BETTER"

(Ezekiel leaves his office. His face showed no emotion. He crosses paths with Etsuko coming out of a room carrying two cups of coffee)

Etsuko-" Mr.Imai! You're out already?"

Ezekiel-" Sorry I can't talk"

(Ezekiel passes Etsuko without letting her respond)

Etsuko-" E-Ezekiel?"

(Ezekiel gets into his car and stops straight away. He swipes back his hair and hyperventilates before covering his face)

Ezekiel-" Hell..."

(Ezekiel grabs the steering wheel and drives off aggressively)

Riku-" Lynnon I swear, you get better every practice!"

Oda-" You're crazy!"

(Lynnon sits down and drinks the last bit of water she had in her water bottle)

Lynnon-" What time is it?"

(Akira looks down at her watch)

Akira-" 6:25, today's work is done by now"

Lynnon-" K. Imma head out"

Mei-" CYA!!!"

(Lynnon walks to the jeep and gets in. She pulls out her phone and is surprised by the sight)

[6 missing calls from Ezekiel]

[Ezekiel-Pick up]

[Ezekiel-Please]

Lynnon-" Shit. What happened?"

(Lynnon hurries and drives to the apartment. She opens the door and closes it)

Lynnon-" Ezekiel? Are you here?"

(After a few seconds Lynnon sees Ezekiel come out from the right hall and rushes towards Lynnon)

Lynnon-" Hey-"

(Suddenly Ezekiel hugs Lynnon and digs his head into her shoulder. Lynnon turns her head)

Lynnon-" What's wron- Oh my god"

(Lynnon touches Ezekiel's bruised cheek)

Lynnon-" What happened?"

(Ezekiel only hugs her a little tighter)

Ezekiel-" I just had a bad day..."

(Lynnon places her hand on the back of Ezekiel's head)

Ezekiel-" I'm sorry"

Lynnon-" What?"

Ezekiel-" I've been cruel; now I seek you for comfort"

(Ezekiel sadly chuckles)

Ezekiel-" I just need you right now"
