Chereads / Life after being a Mercenary / Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Presence

Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Presence

As I was sleeping, I heard a knocked outside my room "hey brother! You should wake up now!" I heard a female voice "..." I didn't say anything and just looked at the door "oh... Should I enter? I think he is still sleeping..." I heard her says "no I'm awake.... I'm just kinda sleepy so.... I didn't answer quick" I said to her and then stand up to my bed to clean it and make it looked neat "Oh! Okay! You should go out now so we can eat!" I heard her say. I got out of my room and saw just go into the kitchen so I followed her there and saw the table with food and empty plate so that we can use it to eat "Let's eat now! I'm gonna go to school... Joe about you..?" She asked me a question.

It made me think because it's been a long time since I've Gone to school and I've lost almost all of my memory.... I don't even know my name back then so I obviously forgot how are we gonna do after the final exam is ended "Uhmmmm.... Can you not go to school after the final exam is over...?" I asked her and based on her expression, she is confused to my question, It looked like I asked a very awkward question because it made her looked at me for a few second and when I thibk she realize what my question is, she answers me "Ohhh yeah!! You must've forgot what are we gonna do after the final exam is over aren't you?" She says

On my mind, I think she already knows that I felt embarrassed because i asked that question and im not wrong, she laughed at me after she saw me sweating "Are you still sleepy?" She asked me a question which made me confused "uhmmm..?" I didn't know what to say and just looked at the other direction to not make eye contact with her "you must be sleepy because you already forgot what are we gonna do after final exam y'know! The soldier who brought you back here say that when you are still leaving abroad, they made you go to school so it was impossible for you to forgot what are we gonna do after final exam!" She explains to me which made me realize that the lieutenant created a way for them to not know my past by saying that they make me go to school "oh yeah.... I'm still sleepy... Sorry for the awkward question..." I said to her which made me sweat a little again "it's okay, I forced to woke you up anyway" she said and then chuckle.

After we eat, I told her that she needs to prepare quick if she don't wanna be late and I'm going to washed the dishes but she insisted and told me that she is gonna helped me so I wouldn't be late too "oh... Uh.... Can I not go to school today...?" I asked her "oh yeah, it's okay to absent after the final exam anyway and it is also okay If you don't go to school on the remaining days of school year" she explains to me and smile "oh.... Okay then, thanks for explaining it to me" I said and also smile at her "oh by the way, me and Sally are gonna hang out until 7 of the night before mom goes home so..... I hope you can come with us" she said "oh yeah sure, where are we gonna meet? What time?" I asked her a question so I can go there on time "it's after school and let's meet Infront of our school, Sally says that she is gonna convinced Jin to come" she explains again and when i heard Jin's name, i think of something 'Jin is coming huh.... Should I go? Being with Jin is fun anyway even though we didn't talked that match.... I guess I'm gonna come then....' I said in my mind and then looked at my sister again and answer "yeah sure, I'll come after school" I said and smile at her "okay then!" She said and then get out of the house to go to school.

After washing the dishes, I just went to the bathroom and go to my room after taking a cold shower, i took my phone and see if someone texted me.

1 MESSAGE

*Hey Julian! How are you? Are you doing well? Do you have any problems? Just asked me! Me and your big brothers are here and ready to help you!*

I saw Lieutenant Keller says which made me smile and replied back at him fast

*I'm okay thank you for asking and I don't have any problems. Thanks for the offer to help me though*

I said and then it didnt took long to lieutenant Keller to notice it and replied back fast too

*Don't mention it! I just wanna make sure you are safe!*

*Thanks*

*It's okay! I said don't mention it! And the training is gonna start now so we should chat again next time!*

*Okay*

After that, I put my phone in the small bag and then took my water bottle, i just got out of the bathroom after showering so i feel fresh and im thinking of going out to take a ride so I go downstairs and go to our garage to take our bicycle 'it's been already almost two weeks since I last ride this bicycle....' I thought and then hop on to take a ride. I just ride for thirty minutes and then came across the house of Jin and Sally 'they must be go to school right now.... I think I should not go without their permission...' I said in my mind as I was ready to pedal again and as soon as I pedal just once, I felt something that I think appeared in their backyard "I think I just felt something...." I said but I just ignored it and just continue my ride. I ride for another half an hour and then stop to a convenience store to buy some energy drink "that'll be 55 pesos" the women in the counter says and I gave her a hundred pesos, she then gave me 45 pesos for change and then just sit in one of the chairs in the table outside the convenience store to drink my energy drink.

After drinking, I just walked because I was trying to exercise my feet after just pedaling for an hour but I bumped into five guys and two women "ugh!" I heard a women says "hey! Watch where you are going bitch!" I heard a guy says "..." I didn't say anything and just looked at them and say nothing "hey! What the fuck are you looking at huh!?" I heard a guy said and then looked at the back of their backpack 'a baston? Are they Arnisador?' I said in my mind and just keeps looking at them. I saw a guy pull out two of his baston and then walked towards me "hey I said what the fuck are you looking at!!!" I heard him shouts and then attack me in the head but before it landed on my head, i gave him a straight punch with my left hand while holding the bicycle withbmy right hand "augh!!!" I heard her groan as he fell down into the ground "hey!" "Bro! Are you alright!?" I heard them say as all of the guys pull out their baston "you bitch!!!" "You are fucked now!!!" "Prepare to be beaten fucker!" Three of them say as they rushed towards me.

One of them tried to attacked my head from the right part of it but I bent my body backwards just a little so I dodged it and then punched him in the stomach while standing still and holding the bike "aurgh!!!!" "Go get him!" I heard them say again and then all of their baston has been directed into my chest 'are they trying to thrust their baston into my chest?' I said in my mind as I dodged each one of their attacks and counter them as fast as I can to not waste time so I can finally moved on to my ride "hey! Are you guys alright!?" I heard the two girls said but I didnt mind them and just continue to hop on my bike and then continue my ride.
