Dear Enemy
Chapter 2 - Phone Calling

“You are really annoying!” The man prepares to attack Elios. But the boy could already feel his movements. The boy immediately jumped up and bit him. Attacking the security man made the man scream in pain. What he did instantly made the entire room crowded. They became the spectacle of many people, and it was also to the point of making the attention of people outside instantly turn towards where they were. At the same time, Carlota and his men passed by at that place. Seeing some people gathered there made them astonished by what was happening. At first they did not intend to check in, but once they heard the voices of some people who said that there were children who attacked security, immediately made them curious about who the child they meant.

Bruk!

Elios fell down as soon as the man jerked his hand as he attacked the man until it was almost hard to let go. Some security had already started gathering and were trying to help the man catch the child. But while trying to protect himself, Elios' instincts say that Carlota and his men are walking towards the direction where he is. That made him panic.

The boy rushed to bite the thing he had been carrying. Without a second thought, he immediately ran from there, piercing through the crowd of people. “Pursue the boy!”

Security rushed after Elios with the help of some of his friends. Meanwhile, the residents of the place just kept quiet and watched what happened. Not a few of them took pictures and videos of what had just happened and uploaded them on the internet.

James looked at the cup in his hand. He still showed a disgusted face. James felt that the milk he made had a completely different taste than it should have. The boy repeatedly tried to re-taste his milk, and it was true. His tongue could not be wrong.

“It turns out I can't make milk, it seems like it's better Mum and Dad don't know about this. What am I supposed to do with this? I don't like the taste. There's no way I'm spending it.”

James tried to come up with an idea so he could remove any trace of himself just making milk the wrong way. After thinking for a moment, he finally had the idea to throw it away. The boy walked over to the sink where he was washing dishes, and he intended to throw them away. Just as he finished pushing the footing bench towards the sink and was ready to throw it away, suddenly the ringing sound of the phone startled him. James spontaneously stopped, his body petrified with a hand that was still tightly grasping his cup.

Ella...does she not want to check on me? What the hell am I doing? What if he asks about this? James was silent for a moment. She was really afraid that Ella would reprimand her for trying to throw away the milk she had just made. After a moment of silence, the boy turned to confirm whether Ella was really behind him or not, and as soon as he turned around, Ella was not there at all.

“Ella?” James called her slow. The boy stepped down from his stool, and tried to find the woman. But just down, James again heard the sound of a cellphone ringing that turned out to be coming from the direction of the table. Realizing that, James then walked over to where the phone was and checked it. Turns out it was a phone call that came in on Ella's phone.

“Mummy!” James smiled wryly.
