Chapter 4 - A Man In The Street!

*One Hour Later*

Kate opened the door of his appartment, he noticed that the lights are off and his roommate is not inside.

Kate then walk alongside with the man he found on the street, leaning on his shoulder unconscious, blood stained his White Shirt and is very noticeable.

They finally got inside the appartment room, Kate opened the lights and walk towards the bottom of the bunker bed - him and his roommate share, he slowly lay down the man's unconscious body on the sheets and then sit beside him while letting out a sigh.

"Ughh... I'm so glad we didn't caught" he said under his breath because of how catastrophic things happened to him while he is supporting this man's body to his appartment.

*A minute ago*

The night is peaceful while Kate is walking in the road it gives him that nostalgic flashback i have on his dream... "Well it really looks like it.. the street light the road it almost looks like the one in my dream this morning... or is it just me?" I continue to walk in the road until i see a person leaning in one of the street light.

"Wait... Is that..? The man in the cafe earlier?" I said as i saw him clearer in the dark.

I walk and i walk until i was close to him, i was terrified and at the same time I'm a bit anxious because the man is unconsciously wounded in the middle of the road, "What happened here...? Or perhaps who would do such thing in this man?" I kneel down and take his wrist to take a look at his pulse, and it is still beating but not as normal as i did, so out of the blue i take his hand and put it around my shoulder to lift him up, "Gosh... He is so big i can barely lift him up" I'm looking as if I'm that one goblin on the game Clash of Calns because of how my body is curve for like 80 degree angle.

"Ughh.. how can this man be so... Heavy???" He said as he slowly walk to the road with the man beside him.

Too many things have come inside my mind while this man in beside me just like "Why is he like this?" Or "Why am i even helping this man that I don't even know??" but only one thing is what i have come with, that because i helped this man get up there is no turning back, what if someone saw me laying down this man again because I don't wanna help him anymore and thought i murdered him and report me to the police then I'll get jailed and then i get-

"No.. no.. no... Don't be so delusional..." Said Kate, he let out a sigh, then again continue to walk.

The night is still young but one thing is noticeable - there is no people around, because I'm pretty sure when i walk in this route there are some people walking, Kate let out a sigh of relief, because no people are around so he can safely make to his appartment.

After a long walk they are nearing the front of his appartment, Kate's eyes is gleaming because he knew his suffering to this heavy man will come to end in any minute, but his face become pale as he see the police walking towards them, they doesn't seem like they see Kate with someone yet and just searching if someone doesn't get home because it's curfew hour, but one thing is clear to Kate.... They need to get out of there or else it's not gonna be good.

He tried to run but because of the man's weight and his tired legs, his run is like a normal walk but still fast enough for them to get in the appartment quickly, he tried to run faster as the police is nearing to them.

Because he lose focus on their sorrounding he forget that there is a trash can on the way, the foot of the man he is carrying hit the trash can, Kate look at the trash can that is slowly falling and tried to catch it, but he missed.

"Ehh??" Kate said to himself, he watch as the trash can fall making a large noice that the police heard.

The police quickly run over to the pace where he heard the noice, Kate is doomed and thinking a way of how they can get out of the mess, but before he can think of any plan the police that came running is nearing them fast, the police is so close and put his flashlight up and saw...

A fallen trashcan, Kate is lucky enough to speed up his walk and get to the stairs on the side of their appartment building and now he is heading to the second floor.

"Shit... That was close..." He whispered to himself with a sigh of relief.

"Kate??" A sudden voice can be heard behind him.

"Ahh...!!" Kate's face is one again turn to pale because someone caught them, he slowly turn around to see who is behind them and saw the Landlord.

"Oh.. M-Mr. Alan..." He said, Alan can see that Kate is troubled because of his fast breathing and his haggard face.

"You seems troubled Kate... is something bothering you??" Allan questioned Kate.

"N-Nothing Mr. Allan... It's just the steps on the stair is tiring" Kate said hoping Allan will agree even though it's clearly a lie because even a kindergarten kids can't get tired on walking in the appartment stairs.

"Oh.. well... I suppose it is tiring.. especially in this type of day.." Allan said, Kate was relieved to hear that Mr. Allan agrees on him.

"And... By the way.. Kate?.. who is that guy beside you?" Allan questioned Kate while looking at the man beside him.

"Oh... He is just my friend... You know we drink and stuff... he is pretty wasted" Kate said, even though the man and he is stained in blood, the landlord can't see them because the light on the hallway isn't working.

"...? Is that so? You better be careful... The lights on the hallway isn't fixed so it's pretty dark here...." Allan said to Kate.

"O-okay Mr. Allan.. I'm g-gonna go now..." Kate said, he turn around and walk towards his appartment door, Allan wave his hand and walk away slowly.

*Back to the Current time* Kate put his hand on his haggard face, remembering what happened to them on their way to his appartment, the memories are still fresh to him considering it happened a minute before they get inside.

"Oh! I forgot we need to treat his wounds" he look at the man beside him still unconscious, he starts to unbutton the mans top to get a clear view of the wound.

"Huh? He even has a Muscular Body" Kate whispered at himself he then looks away flustered, "What am i even thinking!! I need to help him" he sighed and slap his face lightly.

"Okay... I'll get the first aid" Kate regain his composure and go to the bathroom where the first aid was, he looks behind their bathroom mirror, once he saw it he quickly grabs it and walk towards the man.

He puts the first aid kit on the table beside the bed, that is when he saw a note written on a piece of paper laying flat on the table surface, he grabs the note and on the note said, "Sorry Kate i didn't say goodbye to you properly because i need to attend to my grandparents house urgently - Lance"

"Oh looks like my roommate has things to do huh? That explains why he isn't here" Kate said to himself while holding the note, "It's a relief that he isn't here though or else I'm gonna hear some lecture from him since he told me to not let some stranger here in our appartment" , He sigh and put the note back to the table.

"Okay... Now we have to treat his wounds" Kate said while looking at the unconscious man.
