Days later, Alec the office worker, is currently walking out from a convenient store in Ward 3, a road across the playground he was in last chapter but now wearing a white shirt, with the Adidas track pants but with his boxers peeking out.

.

He sighs as he looks at the playground up ahead, "Well, gotta avoid that."

.

But as he turns to his right, theres the little girl, her name is Gogo, just walking towards him with her hands on her pocket and her new short hair wolf cut, white round shades, black shirt tucked in her blue skirt that went from the waist to her knees exposing her ankle high white socks as she wore normal black open sandals, and an open jean jacket on top of her shirt.

.

"Ah goddammit." He groans.

.

"Sup."

.

"She gotten too comfy with me." He thought

"Don't sup me kid. Why do you keep following me around?"

.

"Why do you keep groaning and complaining like a bitch."

.

"I don't think kids are allowed to say that." Shocked by her language.

.

"Fight for me."

.

"You say that every time we meet, kid. Where are your parents-"

.

"Don't have."

.

"Why me-"

.

"Because you are a loser."

.

"Oh my god…" he places a hand on his waist and the other pinching his nose bridge and then places his hands back on his pockets and walks away.

.

"Stop avoiding the playground."

.

"Im tired as is, lady. So… Yeah no." he continues to walk away till she disappears from her sight.

.

----

Later that night, in his small and minimalistic apartment. He waits for the kettle to finish boiling his water as he sets up his cup noodles he got from the convenient store and he is suddenly reminded of the girl.

.

He sighs, "Mehn… whats her deal…"

.

The kettle then whistles, and he goes to turn it off.

.

"I really should've interrogated her, now im curious." He pours the hot water on his cup noodles and then closes the lid.

.

"And she says she has no parents… goddammit… thinking about it is a buzzkill when the food is this good." He opens the lid of the noodles and he first smells the aroma of the different spices on the soup.

.

He then blows at it, "I bought the a huge one this time, and it's from the company that makes the best noodle soup too! Im so proud of choice." He smirks before he blows at it again and finally chows it down.

.

"The broth and the actual noodles is heavenly!"

.

Minutes later after scrolling around his phone whilst eating, he throws away the trash in the trash bin and next to it is his fridge which goes and opens to drink some water.

.

After he finishes drinking, "Food was good as always cuz of my great taste." He compliments himself while he heads to the light switch to turn it off and head to bed.

.

A knock was suddenly heard as he turned off the light.

.

"Yeah?" he walks to the door to open it.

.

"We got delivery sir."

.

"I didn't order shit tho." He replied as he opened the door.

.

"A delivery of a knucklesandwich." The man behind the door then punches Alec's face right as the door opens.

.

The punch took Alec off his feet and he flew backwards to the wall and unto the ground, "The fuc-"

.

Before Alec could speak he grabbed him by the neck and held him up to the wall, high enough to the point where Alec's feet are barely able to touch the ground.

.

He gets his face real close to Alec, glaring at him and showing his extreme and big eyes.

.

"T-that was a shit one liner H-heh." Alec awkwardly pulled out a joke.

.

"Tsk." Disappointed, the tall man then throws Alec back to the ground.

"Can't believe a weakshit punk like you is born from the strongest freedom extremist in the city." He said as he bent down in front of the groaning Alec, as he pulled up his black chauffeur hat to wipe the sweat of his forehead and fix his short black hair which has sideburns.

.

The man disappointedly sighs, "Well if you got nothing to say or show, im leaving." He fixed his long black trench coat, his white tucked in polo and his black tie.

.

As the man walked out, Alec notices just how tall the man was, taller than the door frame.

.

"Oh by the way… Your father is dead." The man told Alec as he was about to close the door.

.

Alec pulls his head back up after hearing that, "Tsk… like that would make a difference in my life."

.

"… It WILL make a big difference in your life" the man whispered to himself as he closes the door.

.

"Well… I don't know what he just said." He laid back down on the floor.

.

"That… honestly, made my blood pumping… I liked that." He placed his hand where his heart is located, confused by what he is feeling.

.

----

After that night and early this morning at 6 to be specific, Alec does his early routine, making his breakfast, packing his lunch, taking a bath, ironing his clothes, wearing them, saying goodbye to his room and finally walking down the road near the playground for work.

.

'Till he hears a loud explosion in the direction of the playground.

.

"Tsk. Thank god im going the opposite of that place…" he continues to walk on. Then… "Shit- isn't this time the usual time Gogo would usually be waiting for me there?!?"

.

A lot of thoughts race through his, "Wouldn't it be my fault if she dies?", "What if she isn't there this time?", "What if she is?", "She has no parents! And im an adult!", "How about my work?", "My boss will kill me if im late.", "Anne will constantly yell at me like the annoying woman that she is if I come late!", "But Gogo is just a child!"

.

"Ah… Fuck it!" He says out loud as he sighs.

.

"Fuck my job."

.

He then sprints to the playground.
