Chapter 23

"Well I read a novel online....about a girl who met a guy and they became friends. They were striving to work together and make a living but the girl found the guy strange. Because he didn't act like a full human. So later on, when they were attacked by a robber who seemed to be a mutant. The guy used his true powers ... revealing he was not human. And saved the girl. But when the guy was in trouble. The girl also stepped in to save the guy. But later when they were in the hospital, the guy kissed her ...it was her first kiss...The girl thought he liked her but actually....he didn't know what a kiss was....it was actually to relieve her pain ....."
"Wait a moment....." Hana interrupted. "Since when did you start reading online novels?"
"That's not important! listen first" Sunni said. "So now I was angry with the book and can't help but wonder who was wrong. Because the girl chases the guy off and calls him just a beast. So who do you think is wrong, the guy or girl?"
Hana looked at her friend, blinking. "What happens next?"
"Uh....Well it's not out" Sunni Said.
"What's the name of this book and which site did you read it from let me check it out"
"No no no, no need. Just tell me" Sunni urged.
Hana thought for a while" Eh....Did the guy do anything wrong to the girl?"
"No...he was quite nice to her ..but made annoying mistakes likely because of his ignorance"
"Well then.... I think that it's not this guy's fault. Because he was only a non human struggling to understand human sentiments. And he was totally ignorant of it all including the kiss. He was even caring for this girl and protecting her but I think the girl really over reacted. He shouldn't have pushed the blame on the poor guy. He was just ignorant! Calling his just a monster was too much!"
Sunni equally felt the same. She felt guilty calling Lucas a monster and sending him off. The way he left, he must have truly been heartbroken.
"Why are you so concerned about the book anyways?" Hana asked.
"Oh... it's nothing...just that the author needs the reader thoughts so as to continue" Sunni said sipping from her cup of water. This was really giving her a lot of thinking now. She was feeling guilty and felt the urge to look for Lucas and apologise...
*************
Ryan's office was not his usual alone place now. This time he had company with him.
He was seated in his seat as he operated the computer before him. He was finalizing the plan of the CCTV cameras around the town as he placed the setting's in his computer.
On the sofa by the right sat Gabe and on the one by the left sat Kelvin who was asleep. Then standing by the window and admiring the evening scenario was Dave Lin and Lara was standing behind Ryan watching what he was doing.
Dave Lin looked at his watch, it was 8:00pm as he spoke "What's the situation?"
Ryan minimized the screen and then entered another sky reading site. After a moment of observing he said..."It's certain.... there is a comet tonight"
Lin sighed "Now we sit back and catch a glimpse of the Alien"
Gabe looked up at Kelvin who had been sleeping for long now and smirked. He then took an little object and tossed it towards him. It hit his head as he opened his eyes.
"Who did that?" Kelvin asked looking around. All eyes were on him except Lin. "Who did that?" He asked reluctantly.
"Why are you sleeping since today? are you okey?" Gabe asked.
"Forget it. I think I'm sick" Kelvin said closing his eyes, then the image of Sunni brushing his lips on his cheeks flashed on his mind as his heart raced he quickly opened his eyes. This was what gave him sleepless nights! "Really! I'm sick"
"What's wrong with you?" Gabe asked.
Kelvin was reluctant to answer for a while but after giving it some thoughts, he said "I think I'm in love"
Again...All eyes fell on him, except Lin. They were not that surprised. Infact this was a part of him. Falling in love once or twice a month! This was what playboys do, right?
"Wow.... We're so much surprised" Gabe said .... rhetorically. "So who's the unlucky girl?"
Kelvin felt insulted "What do you mean by that? Do you mean I'm a jinx to all girls I like?"
"Yeah... that's it. All girls you ended up dating were left in a break up....always initiated by you.... You are a heartbreaker." Gabe analyzed.
"Shut up. I'm not talking again. Because this time.... it's different....I had sleepless nights thinking about her......" He found himself smiling but the smile faded when he saw eyes on him. "Do your work! I'm not talking" He closed his eyes leaning back to his seat to fall asleep.
**************
The night had properly came.... another dreadful night. With the full moon and starry sky, no human could predict the woe that approaches tonight.....well only few.
The night was busy as always with people heading home. The streets was busy, people were hurriedly boarding the bus to get home and some taking cabs or trekking. Street lights were around to illuminate the darkness and beautify the scene and make it a full night scene.
The woman was quite in a hurry, she had finally arrived at the bus station. She sat, impatient as she looked around, fear written all over her face. Luckily, she didn't feel the person following her or watching her. She had to take this opportunity and leave town....This could be her last Chance.
As waited with few people around there also waiting as she felt impatient. In her hand was her purse bearing her phone in it. She gripped it tightly as if her whole life was there.... yeah... something was there... something she Wanted to protect.
Above the skyscraper stood a human figure. one no one could see even if they looked.
The human figure stood heroically on the top and a close look would make it clear to he no other than Lucas.
Now he was not his usual self anymore. The comet had just passed by the starry sky. He was a beast. His eyes had gone blue and glowing with his hands flowing with blue energy that surged every part of his body, donating the aura of evil in him. He was now a killing monster who had set his eyes on the bus that had just arrived.
He could see from afar, he saw the lady quickly enter the bus and take a seat, in fear. He smirked. He would gladly oblige to the Comet's power.....
When full....the bus took off....
