[WARNING: This chapter has some offensive words that might not be your likings.]
"I just don't like that bastard. He insulted Mr. Heriss. Why didn't you guys said that when he was doing it? That way, I could have kicked his god damn ego out."
"Now, Now, Luca you don't have to be so aggressive about it. What's done is done. We can't do anything now let alone kick out his whatever." Said kelan calmly.
"How can you be so calm? Bloody hell, I can't even focus on my work now. That Jodan ruined my morning. I had a great start but now…"
"You should avoid cursing, that might affect your character. You know, humans judge people by their behavior and appearance. If you're short tempted and have the worst personality, you might be blacklisted." Sutasi advised Luca who was packing up the supplies with him. Kelan was helping them to fill up the delivery truck.
"I don't need your piece of advice. Put that shitty advice in your butth*le."
"Hey! Hey!" Sutasi yelled to Luca in frustration. Kelan came between them hurriedly and stopped the uprising.
"You went too far this time, Luca!"
"yea' yea' I'm the wrong here."
"That b-bit*h!"
"End it Sutasi!" Kelan finally managed to stop the fight that was about to begin.
"That's unusual, Sutasi. You were never so tempted by such things. You would avoid conflict as much as possible. Did something happen?"
"Nah, nothing…" Sutashi gave a straightforward answer, "I just can't stand her anymore."
"We shouldn't brawl among us. We're not much safe here. The police have been around this area recently. We might get find out any time, so internal conflict would make things worse." Kelan explained in his calm manner although his words didn't get to Luca. Her stubbiness level was higher.
If she made an enemy, He or she would be her eternal enemy.
"Hurry things up," Kelan ordered those two.
They nodded as expected.
"Did Mr. Heriss offer him the same as he did to us?" Luca said not aggressively but softy.
"Hmm, the same as he did to us. However, that was slightly exception."
"Exception?"
"Yeah, he added that we have to teach him if he joined us."
"Teach him? Who's gonna teach that brat?"
"Don't worry, we don't have to. As he didn't choose that offer, we are free from that."
"That's a relief. I'm not gonna educate him or so. That's a pain in the ass."
"Kelan… Be prepared, If by any chance Jodan came here, he might come with the police. You know what I mean?"
"You're saying that he might betray us?"
Sutashi Nodded, "There's a high change for it. He previously said that he would meet with the police to get his petty revenge."
"But…. Will he do that? Anyway, we have to be cautious of that."
"What's happening here? Little chit-chat?"
"Oh, Mr. Heriss! How have you been?" Luca's personality snapped.
"Absolutely well, that's nice to hear from you."
"I heard some noise so I came to check. Oh, That's strange, why're you guys here?" Mr. Heriss glazed at both Kelan and Sutasi.
"Well, the truck has to be loaded, we thought to help Luca out as there's a lot of delivery today."
"That's great, you guying are getting well with each other."
"Y-Yeah."
Four of them smiled unnaturally.
People change gradually. Wither they change according to their surroundings or by their own perspective. They might even change because of a certain breakdown. In most cases, there's something they made them change. The common one is 'People'. The people who reside in this shattered world. They hurt each other without feeling a bit of guilt, they betray each other for a few dollars. Are they even capable of calling humans? They're the monsters, The true monster. Who says humans are better than an animal? They are indeed the best creation of God. They might be excellent in intelligence but that doesn't deny the fact that they are worst sometimes. They study for knowledge; they became assassins for power.
"finally done. Today was a lot more than usual."
"That's because we had unfinished orders from yesterday," Sutashi answered to Kelan.
"uh-ah, Right, we had to close that day because of an emergency."
"for saving that brat!" Luca said aggressively.
"hurry up, don't waste time, we're already lagging. Just safely deliver the goods."
"Yea' yea' on my way chief!" Luca tried to be a bit sarcastic and entered the truck that loaded.
The notice of engine began, the pedals on the road moved flawlessly, the wind flow away from the dust that was lying peacefully on the ground.
" ah-ha(Cough, Cough) That bit*H!" Sutasi cursed while covering his nose with his hand to ensure the dust didn't go in.
"Don't be so angry, you know her well, she's like that." Kelan tried to calm Sutasi.
"I know." Sutasi and Kelan were on their way back to their designated place. Sutasi seemed to calm down as he made a deep sigh. He was back to his usual cold, unwavering attitude.
"Why do you think why did Mr. Heriss saved Jodan?" The first to break the silence was Kelan. Sutasi hardly talks with anyone. One could occasionally see him starting a conversation.
"That's simple, He saved him just like he saved us from the hell."
"Maybe you're right, but I don't think the same. Why would Mr. Heriss go his way to save someone? There's a high risk of getting caught, don't you think so?"
"High risk, high gain. Didn't you hear that phrase? It's the business people's mindset. If you invested more, the profit would be much."
"So, you're saying Mr. Heriss had something to gain from Jodan?"
"Perhaps…"
"….."
"The power Jodan possesses would definitely be in our use if we can utilize it. That would be convenient for us."
"Yea' however we already lost him, He wouldn't back for us." Said Kelan in a mistful tone.
*Knock! Knock!* A loud knocking sound could be heard.
"Yea' coming, wait a bit." Kelan made his usual grinning face and was on his way to the front counter.
"Hey! We didn't even unlock the shutter." As Sutasi said that both Kelan and Sutasi became conscious.
"Who could it be?"
"Be on your guard. It might be him."
"Jodan?" Sutasi nodded in to approve.
"Did he betray us?"
"Probably, I'll handle right and you left." Sutasi was quick-witted, he made a plan within a few minutes although his plan might not be very solid by the time he was given.
Kelan followed his orders as an obedient follower.
"Freeze him the moment you see him, I'll open the shutter slowly." Sutasi and Kelan were on each side of the shutter. They did that so Jodan couldn't attack each of them at once. Moreover, this plan has a high chance of succussing.
"Ready?" Sutasi asked his partner.
"hmm…"
