Chapter 9
"We're going now, Kaizer says bye to them," Keith said. They are currently standing in front of Zachary's house. It's already 6 p.m. and he decided to come home.
"Bye-bye," He said, waving his hand.
"Bye Kaizer, come back here okay." Sean, Nike and Mike while they're smiling at the child.
The three of them were stunned when Kaizer stepped his feet toward their direction and hugged them. All of them cough but can feel the warmth inside them.
When Kaizer was already done he turned around and walked toward Steffan and Ivan before he lifted his hand allowing Steffan to carry him. When Steffan finally lifted him Kaizer hugged him and also reached Ivan to make Steffan and Ivan's skin touch.
"Don't fight ok because it's not nice," Kaizer said. Both of them look at each other and nod their head but deep inside they're against it they just need to agree in front of the child.
"You promise?" Kaizer asked before he touched their faces. This cute moment gets the attention of the others.
"I can't promise that because he keeps teasing me," He said but Steffan was smiling when he looked at Ivan the way he looked changed. Kaizer's eyes turn to Ivan who is grinning but stops when he notices that Kaizer is already looking at him.
"Don't tease him, brother Ivan," Kaizer said. Ivan shut his mouth and grabbed Kaizer's cheeks to pinch it. Keith can't believe that his son built a friendship with the adolescent in front of him. Usually, he didn't let him get near to others but there was something inside him that he couldn't take down Zachary's gratitude even though they just met.
"He is the one who keeps hurting me," Ivan acts like crying. Steffan wants to smack his head but he remembers that he is carrying Kaizer and the child doesn't want them to fight.
"Ok, ok Kaizer come here. We need to go okay." Keith finally called Kaizer. He feels that the two will start again so he grabs the opportunity to interrupt the conversation.
When Steffan heard Keith he gently put Kaizer down before the kid walked toward his father.
Keith nodded at them and he turned to the Zachary he slightly smiled before they walked away.
"Bye brother, remember to visit me again! So I won't miss you!" Kaizer said while waving his hand. Zachary smiles a bit before he waves his hand without noticing his action.
They were like that until Zachary already saw Keith's car drive away. When Zachary saw they already got his hand moved on his own to put it into his chest, feeling the kind of sensation inside it. The heart racing faster than usual and the heavy sound that he can hear coming from it.
"Boss to be honest this is the first time I saw you act like this. We don't know if it's a good thing but you should try to be alarmed. We have a purpose and you need to be careful. We also want to be with Kaizer because he's adorable but you need to restrain yourself because everyone is our enemy and they will use that kid or that doctor against you. You shouldn't show your weak spot," Steffan said as he put his hand on Zachary's shoulder.
Zachary looks at Steffan when his eyes look at Ivan, Mike, Sean and Nike they're nodding showing that they agree with what Steffan said.
"Don't worry, I know it. I'm not forgetting everything but I want to escape from reality for a while, I can't let this opportunity fade when I finally feel like I want to do something else than my purpose in life," Zachary said. For some reason his gang feel at ease, they trust their boss more than others. They know that if he makes a decision he already thinks about it before he decides.
At the corner, Mike stepped back away from them to answer the call "Hello?" The number is unknown, which makes him annoyed.
"6:00 pm go to the black park." Mike suddenly raises his eyebrows. He already understands what it is.
"Why should I?" It's unusual to call them and say a place even though he knew what it was but he wanted to be a prank.
"Go with your f*cking as*hole boss." That was the last word he heard before the sound of the phone ended.
Mike was frowning about putting his phone in his pocket when he was stunned when Zachary spoke beside him. "Who is that?" He didn't realize that Zachary was already there which made his heart race he thought he would have a heart attack because of their boss hubby who could replace a mushroom to appear everywhere.
"I don't know but I think they are asking for a fight," Mike said. This time he was already smirking and because of that Zachary's expressions became more aggressive.
"They have the guts to ask for a fight huh." An unusual smile on his face while he was caressing his hand and he felt the shiver inside him
"So should we go?" Sean asks while scrolling through his phone they walk inside Zachary's house and sit on the couch.
"Of course, it's been a week without fighting with another gang, it makes me excited," Zachary said. All of them look at their boss. that the person they knew was a badass who loves to hurt others, not a softie for some guy or some kid.
"Sean tracked that area, they mentioned. Check what kind of that place it is." Zachary command. Sean is the one who has excellent skills in technology, he can't hack and manipulate everything that is related to technology.
"Copy," he said and got his laptop from the guest room where he used to sleep.
Even if Ivan is the strongest, Mike and Nike are the fastest to move and Steffan is the one who has the excellent skill to handle a weapon like a knife or a cutter but he doesn't want to kill people he just uses it to give some scratch to their enemy. Zachary has all of that strength except Sean's strength but they don't push too far because they're not killers.
"What if they are the same gang who scratched you?" Ivan asks if he looks bored, he feels that it's not giving him excitement he just wants to lie down and sleep.
"Then it's more fun. I will take my revenge."
"What's the plan?" Steffan asked, wiping his cutter using soft clothes.
"You'll see" Zachary gets the pillow behind him and hugs it.
"Boss" Sean gets their attention when he walks up the stairs straight in front of Zachary
"What?" Zachary asks, waiting for him to speak.
"Well, it's an abandoned park in Mart City. It's been abandoned since 7 years ago because of the incident saying that every day that place sees a corpse that's why it's forbidden to go there but because of that the other gang going there passed night to have a gang fight. It's already a restricted area but the police don't have the guts to go there, that's why they move freely." Sean explained, his eyes looking at his laptop looking serious. He took 5 minutes to get the information because it's already an old issue.
"Then why didn't we hear about that place if it's a fighting area?" Mike asks while putting his hand to his chin.
"It's from another organization. The organization was free to kill. I think the one we fought last time is the same organization as them." They all look at each other because of what Sean says.
"You sure?" Nike asks. He takes a peek at Sean's laptop but he looks away when he can't understand anything it makes him dizzy.
"Yes, we know that it's illegal to kill but for them, there's no illegal. Also, boss you know about this Our organization is not like the others they don't have rules not like us." Sean explained again while looking at his laptop his expression became more serious but from that information, Zachary looked unbothered, he just smirked.
"So we need to carry some weapons?" Zachary asks while smirking. His gang harshly looked at him and couldn't believe what they heard.
"You sure? What if we accidentally killed someone?" If they go against the rules they will get killed by the organization member.
"Are you afraid?"
"No we were not but you promised years ago that we don't need to kill someone," Steffan said. They still remember the time when Mike accidentally killed someone. That's the time when they decide to restrain themself.
"We never kill, we just carry a weapon for defence tsss," Zachary explains That makes sense nodding at him. They trust their boss because even if he is heartless from others he never kills for some reason.
"Just go prepare yourself, we need to be there," Zachary said and stood up and started to walk toward the room where they followed their boss to the room where they used their weapon.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes hahaha but don't use it if you feel that our enemy is weak," Zachary said while grinning. Zachary is already preparing himself.
"Of course," they said and prepared themselves. Zachary just put a knife on his left hip.
Ivan wrapped the clothes he used on both handhands used to fight with his hand. While Steffan didn't get any weapon he already had a cutter in his pocket that he used to point to Ivan when they fought.
Mike, Nike, and Sean get some knives too and put them on their waist.
"Let's go," Zachary got their attention before he came out of the room. He also feels his gang follow him outside.
When they already walked into their car it took 2 minutes of driving when Zachary heard his phone ringtone. He uses his right hand to reach for the phone in front while his left-hand holds the steering wheels.
"Hello." He answered with a bored tone.
"I'm coming home, what do you want me to give you?" That voice echoes in Zachary's ear also it makes him frown but his eyes still focus on the road.
"Don't act like that, I'm not a child," he said but the other person chuckled.
"Hey, I just want to spoil my little brother. What's wrong with that?" Zachary can't help not roll his eyes. That person used to treat him like too much younger than his current age.
"Don't bother to buy anything," Zachary said. But the other person pretended that he didn't hear him after all.
"You want chocolate? Cake or food with some basil?" He asked for a listing in his notebook. Zachary already imagining what that person is doing makes him shake his head.
"Hays, just buy what you want. I need to go." Zachary finally surrendered to that person's personality he wouldn't let Zachary think at piece when he didn't expect an answer from him.
"You'll go into a gang fight again?" This time that person's voice became serious.
"Yes," Zachary simply said.
"You never obey me. What Mom and Dad know that," he said sighing he stood up from his chair and looked outside seeing the other building in front
"Even if they knew it, they couldn't do anything, nothing will change," he said. If he can't stop him their parents also can't stop anyone from Zachary's stubbornness.
"You're so stubborn. We'll see you in our house." Even if he stops Zachary from what he has been doing he can't do anything. After all, there is no use stopping him.
"Ok see you….take care……Don't worry too much about me. I'm fine and I've been enjoying this cursed life of mine...."Download Novelah App
