Chapter 7

Until now the world is still the same . Some things that should be a big question, are now slowly widening rapidly. Humans can only accept all these things without being able to overcome them. Kevin had arrived in front of his apartment and now he immediately entered his apartment. In his heart, he still felt that all of this was pointless and indeed it was no different from all the things that had happened. Recently, he still doesn't know much about what happened to his colleague and until now the police have also not announced the results of further investigations. Kevin immediately entered his private room where he was currently trying to find out some information while trying to calm down. It had been a long time since he had felt this uncomfortable feeling just because of something he had lost. Previously, Kevin met someone who was none other than one of his friends and it turned out that this person was also very interested in this case so he continued to dig deeper. After that, the result was always the same and they both talked about the same thing when they met. From Kevin's point of view, after the incident occurred there were several things that really didn't make sense. It was as if it had come to cloud the vision. He is still curious about it until now. While his friend saw something he couldn't predict and he felt that he must have left some clues, it's just that those people didn't find them. He also tried to convince Kevin that there was most likely a conspiracy and that it actually led to darkness that no one else had ever touched. His thoughts were indeed beyond reason and also very unreasonable. Kevin, who at that time heard what he said, immediately became silent as if he also did not understand what this person was saying. That's when they started to unite opinions and apparently nothing has changed. In fact completely useless. Currently, Kevin is browsing several internet pages and it turns out that he also had time to open a forum that contains the latest information. Quickly he wrote down the keywords and after that appeared some news containing quite interesting information. All of that was checked by Kevin until he felt tired. Strangely, there was nothing that made him feel happy because he had found news about the case and the contents were not much different from before it turned out. It was then that he felt irritated again and then gave up his search. A few minutes later, his cell phone rang and apparently it was another call from one of his friends.
“Yo. kevin. How are you? I hear you're in the apartment now. Is it true?" said the person through the phone call with a tone that seemed very happy.
"Yes. Why?"
"What are you talking about? It's like you don't want me to contact you."
"Gosh, I think I'm not feeling well right now so you don't make a fuss."
"Wait, don't tell me you feel stressed just because of that?"
"So what else?"
"Come on. They will definitely handle the case . So you don't have to be so hard on yourself to uncover it. You're not a detective. You don't have access to go through everything on your own and ah, never mind.”
"You talk too much bro."
"What are you saying?"
"Listen carefully. In fact, I had no intention of ever going that far. just wondering a few things that feel odd. If you think about it, what you said was true. it’s just that my curiosity is bigger than rationality itself.”
"Wow, if that's the case it will definitely be very difficult."
“It can't be helped, this is indeed the truth. I feel like there's been a lot of trouble lately. Are people getting frustrated already? Damn it.”
“Based on what I've seen, it seems like it's been like that for a long time. There are no problems like not living in this world.”
"How ridiculuous."
“But that's a fact. You can't close your eyes."
"Yes. I believe it."
Of all the things that are happening, there are times when it actually becomes a bad sign and even vice versa. People are starting to no longer feel the tremendous pressure, instead they are trying to come to terms with the pain. This city is really sad and suffocating. At the corner of the street, several people were standing as if waiting for someone to come. School children smoke a lot on the streets and they often hang out with their friends to the point of upsetting one of the old ladies with their immoral behavior. All of that is often seen clearly and it's strange that many people turn a blind eye to it but they are very scared when they learn the news of other people's massacres. Right now, right in a tall building in this city . Someone was just seen entering the elevator and then heading to the next floor. Not long after that, the man ran into several other people. With a charming smile, he immediately greeted those people and they were also seen giving their respects. That person quickly entered into one of the rooms and at once returned to sit in his chair. Not long after, someone entered the room carrying some documents. The person asked the person carrying the document to sit down and not just stand up.
"You brought everything?"
"Yes, I brought everything."
"Good. How about the others?"
"I've taken care of it and now only this is left sir ."
"Okay. So far it's been great. Nothing left. It's just that you don't mind doing heavier work than this?”
"Yes. I am willing."
"I already guessed. Oh yeah, so far there are quite a few people who might come here. Can you handle it? I think your help is very valuable to me. How?"
"Then I will try."
“Nice. You are the best mate."
"Thank You. Then I'll excuse myself."
"Okay. You may leave this room now. Don't forget to fulfill your duty.”
"Yes. Sir."
Now it's Kevin's place. He still continued to feel something that was truly unbelievable. This time he seemed to be trying to fend off something that came into his head. Something that was really heavy and it even made him feel uncomfortable. Kevin still couldn't believe all of this and he could only sigh. It's been a long time since he was always stuck in a very confusing situation like this and often also can't handle it just because there are some things that can't be controlled by him. Kevin always became frustrated to the point of being angry with himself for no reason for some time.
"Are you feeling irritated?" asked his friend again.
"Not annoyed anymore. I think this has crossed the line.”
“Wow, that's dangerous. What are you doing right now?”
"Stay in front of the monitor. Why?"
"Yes. It's your habit. It is nothing. just asking. Sounds like you need some entertainment. Why don't you come to a bar or club? There you can get rid of your frustration. Tonight must be really fun.”
"Your idea is fine too. But I have to look at my schedule first.”
"Hah? What else is there?"
“There's a lot of work to be done. I can't ignore all of that.”
"Okay. I understand, hardworking master you are very professional.”
Kevin still continues to reject the invitation of his friends who want to have fun out there . He is still trapped by the responsibilities that must be done by him. There is a lot of work and one of them is making some statistical reports which keep Kevin from going anywhere for now. He had to do all the reports in a short time because indeed if he continued to delay it would only add to the burden. This time he opened several files and started working on them one by one. His current situation is very busy and continues to focus on his work. While this time it was right where his friend was, that person was relaxing. He saw several notifications that entered his cellphone and one of them was their chat in the chat group. Some of the other members agreed to come to the bar tonight and they also seemed to be very frustrated. He immediately told them that recently it was quite crazy and there was nothing wrong with getting rid of that stress. Kevin, who was continuing to do his job, now did not realize that almost two hours had passed. He's still not finished. Kevin then sighed again and soon he was done with this task. Not feeling it, finally he had finished his work and then contacted his friend again by calling him this time.
"Hello?"
Hey, I think I changed my mind.
"Is it true? In that case, good. I told you not, you should take your time to just relieve stress. By the way, what about your assignment?"
"I'm done. There's no problem with that.”
"What? have you done it?”
"Yes. Why are you screaming?”
"Unlucky. How can it be that fast? How competent are you exactly ?”
"Hah? Good grief. You're too much. Does not doing too much work take a long time? Of course not. You can do it in just a few hours if you really want to finish it. To be honest, when it comes to being competent I have absolutely no idea how competent I am. Why do you ask that?”
"No. It is nothing."
