Ares: Never Grow Up
The House of Elly.

..."Haaah! Listen to me, we won't get involved in your city's conflict."...

POV: Vani

Elly went silent after hearing my statement, her eyes looking at me flatly, without hatred or anger. A few minutes of this awkward situation continued, until he finally decided to smile and stand up.

"You're right, this city conflict .. We should have solved it ourselves. Sorry for making you depressed" Elly said kindly as she walked away. Apparently Elly went to the kitchen, her hands looking for two glasses of glass and then in the warm water.

Tuk.

"Well, for now, drink some warm water first. I'm sorry I haven't had any food for a night snack. You better go to bed soon after this, so that tomorrow you don't get sleepy" Elly said after putting a full glass of warm water in front of me. Then Elly went in another direction, and I saw that she was about to enter the room.

"I'm going to sleep first, if you're not comfortable sleeping on the couch. I have an empty room over there, you can use that to sleep. There is also a mattress," said Elly while pointing to a door made of wood and green. After that he immediately went into the room, and locked it from the inside.

But still .. even though I said that to Elly. His words are still ringing in my brain.

FLASHBACK ENDS.

***

Yeah .. so the story. I only slept for a few hours last night. And now I'm still very sleepy, maybe after this I'll go to bed like Elly, and wake up later when the sun is hot enough.

...

That if today is hot, but instead .. it looks like it will rain. Somehow today will run, but ... this cold morning wind brings a strange feeling in my heart.

The reason last night I refused to interfere in the conflict of this city .. was because of a previous incident. Yes ... while in the City of Oner. It wasn't just me who was seriously injured, be it Ken, Ares, or Riot. The four of us even risked our lives to confront Ron.

I don't want something like that to happen again. I don't want to see my comrades get hurt once again. But come to think of it, it's funny too? Though our goal is to find a way to restore the world, but instead we meet crazy people who are so in love with this crazy world.

Cklek!

The sound of the door opening made me wake up from the daydream. When I turned to the origin of the voice, it turned out to be Elly. He woke up with a face that was still sleepy and messy, it seemed like he was still not getting enough sleep.

"If you're sleepy, go back to sleep" I said with a small smile. But Elly just laughed for a while then looked at my hand holding the dishwasher sponge.

"What?! Guests cannot do the work of the host! Get your hands out of the sink!" elly panicked as she ran towards me. I just laughed while trying to hide the sponge full of foam in my right hand.

"It's okay El! I'm not even good if I just sit still and eat at your place" I said while still trying to keep the dishwasher sponge from being snatched by Elly. She looked annoyed and disappointed when I said that, her face turned out to be cute too when she was angry. It seems like he used to be the adorable type of kid, no matter what he did.

"Can't be like that dong Van," he said resigned.

"could. Stevani can do anything!" i'm firm. In the end, Elly gave up and let me wash the dirty dishes in her sink. After that, either Elly went where .. I must have been alone in this kitchen again.

Trak truck!

I immediately laid myself down on the sofa, slowly closing my eyes. This drowsiness controlled me, so I just resigned and fell asleep.

POV: Ken

I'm still very happy now, I can be alone with Civilian only! I didn't even think he would come to me first!

Well whatever it is, I'm definitely very happy now. But I was a little uncomfortable because Ares looks angry and disappointed in me, but there is still Riot. They can both find Vani faster than I can.

Riot can teleport freely, and Ares who can fly above the sky, certainly has a higher mobility than me who only has healing power and gives disease. Although I do sometimes envy their cool abilities, but I am also still proud of my own abilities!

"Ken, do you like pudding?" Civilian questions brought me back to reality. Well, now I'm in Civilian's apartment. This apartment looks luxurious and classy, even the furniture only comes from famous designers.

Although I don't know now the designer is a corpse or not.

"Pudding? I don't hate him" I replied, my eyes looking at the Civilian who came in his dress, with both hands holding a full mango pudding.

Mango again .. To be honest I'm a little bored with mango.

"Why? Your face looks a little disappointed" Civilian asked as he looked at my facial expression. I immediately shook my head and smiled widely, my hand picked up the spoon that was on the edge of the plate and began to take a mouthful of pudding.

"Hmm, this is delicious!" friendly say. Civilian only smiled wryly as he received a compliment from me. Although I was a bit confused by his attitude that sometimes can not be guessed, but now I know that he is indeed a slightly stiff person.

But that doesn't mean he's a bad guy! Hehe!

"It feels a little unique, right? What kind of mango is this?" I asked when I felt a little bit of saltiness in the pudding. Civilian was silent, his eyes focused on the pudding.

"It looks like I put too much salt in. Shouldn't pudding need salt?" civilian murmured softly, but I could still hear it.

Really, I want to laugh out loud now. Why make pudding with salt?

Well, as long as it's his pudding. I have no problem eating it.

"By the way, don't you go to work?" I asked the Civilian who was sitting relaxing beside me. Civilian shook his head without looking at me.

"Boss there's an event today. He won't be in town until tomorrow" Civilian replied as he continued to play mobile. And by accident, my eyes saw what message was sent from the Civilian cell phone.

"What?"

TBC.
