Arth's pov
This can't be serious, 5 victims in a week? This is ridiculous! I thought myself. "Did you find any evidence?", Lake asked but I just shooked my head with a no. The police have been posted around the place after the latest victims.
What am I suppose to do? I leaned back on my chair and threw my hands behind my head, looking at the ceiling. "Hey, are you okay?", Fravis worriedly asked me. "Yeah.". I sighed. Fravis stood in his feet, "where are you going?", I asked. "Outside. Wanna come?", He invited me. Maybe I should with him, I'm kinda exhausted. "Sure!", I smiled. We headed out.
We stopped at a coffee shop and ordered for nice hot coffee, "cappuccino, please.", I said at the cashier while fravis ordered for just a hot coffee. I put out my wallet and pay but instead, fravis put out his credit card and gave it the cashier, "I'm on it, I'm the one who invited you, isn't it?", He smiled sheepishly. "Erm, thanks.", I said and waited for our orders. "Is there something bothering you?", He asked. "I dunno. I'm just... I don't know. 5 victims without any traces who might be the killer and I'm just here, doing nothing. Maybe I'm not good enough.", I bowed down with sadness. Then a waiter came with our coffee and I looked at my cappuccino. "I don't know what to do.", I put my head on the table. "You know, dearth-kun, you're just loosing up.", He said then I lifted my head to look at him sipping his coffee. "You're just messing up your mind, why don't you trust and believe in yourself. That is the reason you reached your dreams, right?", He exclaimed. I can't even speak out after what he have said. I looked at my drink, "maybe, you're right. I guess...?", I chuckled and drank my coffee. It was tasted so good then we went back to the agency.
That night, I felt someone following me so I walked fast. I stopped a bit and turned back but there's no one around do I keep walking. There's really something at my back so I stopped, "who's there?", I asked seriously and felt my sweats got colder. I turned around and looked at each spots but I found nothing. I headed back on my way but I prepared some metal shards just in case, I gasped. I can barely hear some footsteps and I tried to tracked it down so I closed my eyes. I turned around before the figure stabs me so I dodged. "Hello there, sweety!", A female voice and she's wearing black hooded jacket, black skinny jeans and black face mask but the her red eyes are seen. "What do you wan-.", I stopped. "You killed them, wasn't it? Who are you and why are you here?", I asked frankly. "I'm just doing orders, ya'know?", She said. I took my phone at my back pants pocket not noticing by the lady then sent my location to the agency. "Well, you're really cute, dearth Devon.", She fast and she's already infront of me, pointing her knife under my chin. "I don't want to kill you yet, but next time we meet again, i'll definitely kill you instantly.", I yelled and attacked with my shards. She dodged and ran away, "hey, come back here!", She laughed and disappeared with the shadows.
"Arth! Are you alright?", They approached me while I'm on my knees. "I saw her.", I panted in every word. "I know who killed them.", I said. "And she'll kill me next.", I muttered. "Let's get you home but did she hurt you?", Lake asked then I shooked my head. I felt so scared to myself, what should I do now? I haven't found her yet.
I got home and thanked my friends. I layed at my bed thinking of what happened a while back. My phone rang then I took it from my pocket, and looked at the message. It's from fravis, "I received your location late but lake told me everything. Are you okay now?". I don't want to reply him yet but he does cares for me since. I groaned with guilt so I replied, "I'm fine now, don't worry about me-". Should I tell him now but how about if doesn't believe me but he trusted me. "I'll tell you somethin- oh nevermind, see you tomorrow. Bye!", I said. "Okay... Sure, see to tomorrow, goodbye.", He hanged up.
I don't want to loose hope, I need to find yume no matter what, I thought to myself. I turned to my side and put my legs on my chest and I tried to sleep.
Yume's pov
Maybe I scared him too much but I must tell him a little bit longer, I'm just excited. I'm being psychotic these days. There's something bothering him. Oh well, I don't care. I'm just following commands and cash on my hands then I'll buy everything I want that what's money for.
How about if I go to other countries, it will be fun. But I felt something on him, I felt that I met him before and my heart's racing. Maybe it's just my hallucination so I walked to bathroom and take a shower. But he's kind when he helped me with those bastards, oh come on, what's happening on me? I'm in love? No way! No way! No way!
Everything's done, my hair is already dried up and rest myself on my comfy bed. I missed my Moe and nero then I closed my eyes.
