Chereads / TWO CULTURES IN ONE / Chapter 6 - Chapter 5: It Has Started

Chapter 6 - Chapter 5: It Has Started

Back at home, Hui Yi and Xin Li were cooking some lunch for them and their friends.

Hui Yi: I can't believe you burned two eggs after how I instructed you with details. Are you even listening to me carefully?

Xin Li: I'm sorry, I was trying hard to do the best but I can't. Besides, I did everything what you told.

Hui Yi: Xin Li, everything was fine, but why did you put egg shells along with the eggs on the pan?!!

Xin Li: Ok, I'm sorry, all right? I was trying to do something interesting so.....

Hui Yi: How interesting? By putting egg shells as a decoration for the scrambled eggs? You're so cheeky.

Xin Li: At least I tried, be grateful about it.

Hui Yi: Yeah yeah, you tried, but you can't do anything properly for once, even in cooking.

As the girls kept cooking, they heard the door opened loudly and closed with a loud bang.

Hui Yi: What's that loud sound? Who's on the door?

Hui Yi turned off the stove and went to the living hall, to see Kai Wen standing alone, looking down to the floor in rage. He looked pissed off as if something had upset him.

Hui Yi: Kai Wen, you're back? Why do you look so angry?

Kai Wen looked up and his eyes went red, which Hui Yi was taken aback, Xin Li followed after her and saw him too.

Xin Li: Hey, how can you open and close the door hardly? What if the door broke?

Kai Wen: I don't care about that door!!!!

Kai Wen burst out in anger that startled both Hui Yi and Xin Li.

Hui Yi: Kai....Kai Wen, is everything ok?

Xin Li noticed Kai Wen's outfit were burned by something flammable.

Xin Li: What happened to your clothes? Why do I see burn marks all over your body?

Just then, Mithran and Loshini entered the house. He walked towards Kai Wen and pushed him back a bit.

Mithran: Kai Wen, are you out of your mind?! What do you think you're doing?!

Kai Wen: Mithran, that idiot tried to kill me. He should be punished for trying to kill me.

Loshini: But it's not what you think, Kai Wen. Please listen to us.

Xin Li: Ok, you know what? Save your discussion later, but can someone please tell me what is going on?

Hui Yi: Yeah, why Kai Wen looks pissed off? And who was he talking about being punished for trying to kill him? I don't get it.

Mithran: Let me tell you everything happened there. It was...

Half an hour ago.....

Mithran: Kai Wen!!!

Mithran managed to reach Kai Wen and he pulled him out of the truck's way. They both fell on the ground and the truck crashed against the tree where Kai Wen was standing.

Out of the blue, the truck exploded massively that startled the whole area. Kai Wen and Mithran looked away while Loshini covered her face from the explosion. Luckily, no one got hurt, except for the driver obviously as he was burned to death.

Kai Wen and Mithran slowly got up from the ground and patted their whole body from dirt, Loshini ran towards them and checked on them.

Loshini: Guys, are you ok? Did you get hurt anywhere?

Mithran: No, we're fine. It's just.....Kai Wen got some burn marks all over him.

Kai Wen suddenly held Mithran's shoulders and looked directly to his eyes.

Kai Wen: Mithran, why are you here?! Don't you see the truck was coming here?!

Mithran: I know, but how can I let you get hit by that truck?!! You could have lost your live if I wasn't here!!

Loshini: He's right, we were calling you out loud but you didn't notice us at all.

Kai Wen: Sorry, Mithran. Sorry, Loshini. I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings.

Kai Wen suddenly looked pissed off and he walked towards the crashed truck.

Mithran: Wait, where are you going?!

Kai Wen: I'm gonna teach that stupid truck driver a painful lesson. How dare he tried to kill me just because of his silliness?!

Before Kai Wen can take another step, Mithran and Loshini held him back from the scenario, as the truck kept burning massively.

Loshini: Kai Wen, there's a huge fire, you're already got burn marks on yourself, and you want to get closer to that fire?

Kai Wen: No Loshini, that driver must be out of his mind, he tried to kill me!!!

Kai Wen was in rage to meet the driver but Mithran and Loshini somehow stopped him from doing so.

Mithran: Calm down man, that driver might have burned to death, and you're willing to meet his dead body now?

Kai Wen: But Mithran, I.....

Loshini: No buts, Kai Wen. We have to go home now, this place is not really good to me right now.

Mithran: Yeah, I feel something weird around us, it's better if we just go back home.

Kai Wen was breathing heavily as he was in so much anger, he stomped the ground and walked away from them.

Mithran: Kai Wen, wait!! Don't go alone again!!!

The End Of The Scene.....

Hui Yi: What?! Kai Wen almost got killed by a truck?!

Xin Li: How dare that stupid truck driver have the mind to hit Kai Wen?! I should have killed him if I was there.

Kai Wen: Exactly, that's what I wanted to do when I was there.

Mithran: There's no point anyway, the driver died at the spot.

Hui Yi: So, is the truck driver on the mistake?

Kai Wen: Of course he is, I have no idea why someone like him should have a driving license just to go around and kill anyone he likes?

Loshini: Ummm....guys.....I don't think the driver's at the fault.

Everyone looked confused at Loshini for a splits second.

Kai Wen: What do you mean it's not his fault?! You did see that the driver was driving the truck!!

Loshini: Well, about that.....

Loshini took out her cellphone from her handbag and showed them a picture, they were shocked by what the witnessed.

Hui Yi: What.....What the heck is that?!!!

Mithran: It...it looks like a dark shadow with glowing red eyes floating behind the dead driver.

Kai Wen: When did you take this?

Loshini: Well, I was about to follow you behind after you walked away angrily, but then I felt a strong presence behind me. When I looked up, I saw this creepy shadow in the fire. That's why I quickly took a picture of it before I left there.

Mithran slowly went back and sat down on a couch, he stared to think about what Gurudev warned him earlier in the temple.

Mithran: It's happening..... it's really happening...

Xin Li: What....what is happening?

Mithran: They have started their move, they're on their way to get us.

Loshini: I can't believe it quickly happened just as what Gurudev told us back there.

Hui Yi: You both went to meet Gurudev? What did he say?

Loshini: Evils are starting to execute their plan to destroy us, and it has started by killing Kai Wen first.

Xin Li: So....is that it? We can do nothing about it literally?!

Kai Wen: First, they tried to kill Mithran during the inauspicious night, now they tried to kill me by hitting me with a truck. I can't take this anymore.

Kai Wen angrily kicked the door behind him which made a loud bang sound.

Hui Yi: Kai Wen!! Control yourself!! It's no use to get angry right now!

Kai Wen: Then what else should I do?! Do those stupid evils think that taking away a life is a joke to begin with?! I can't just sit back and watch everything they did with their ridiculous plan!!

Mithran: I know we won't do that, but we have to find the answers before we begin our move to protect ourselves.

Xin Li: Find the answers? Of what?

Mithran: About the past.....

To Be Continued...
