I WAS TRASH
The Part 19
The other...
Steve just opened his eyes. He had regained consciousness after fainting for a moment. His hands and feet were tied like a hostage. He was unable to move either, he widened his eyes when he saw the black-robed figure before him.
"Who are you and what do you want?" Ask Steve.
Steve tried to calm down even though he tried to open the binder in his body.
"Haha. You don't need to know who we are. You just need to remember that you owe us your life" replied the man.
"If you're not sincere, then why are you helping me?" Steve asked with a look filled with anger.
"What do you want?" Ask further.
"Haha. It's not wrong if you manage to kill your own brother. You turned out so smart."
"I'll help you finish off your trash nephew, but on one condition," the man said.
"What's the condition?"
"You should be my slave from now on and help me take the Blue Fire gang's army," the man replied.
The Blue Fire Gang? Especially that? I guess I never heard of it. ~Batin Steve.
"What do I get from working with you?" Ask Steve.
"The powerful medicine is invincible to our products. We guarantee you'll be comparable to your niece who suddenly became strong..."
"One more. I'll give you the antidote," he continued.
"A cure?" Steve Mumbled.
"Damn! Did you poison me?" Umpat Steve's.
"of course. We're not stupid. I'm sure you'll reject it. We will never create an opportunity for you to refuse. The cure is only we have the antidote. In a week's time, if you don't take the antidote, your body will start to take care of it and dry up. Your power will be lost slowly and within half a month, you will lose your life." The man covered Steve's chin roughly, making him look up.
Damnit damnit! This guy is so cunning!~Batin Steve.
"alright. I accept!" Steve gritted his teeth. She was eager to pounce on the man before her, yet she was sure it would only make her suicidal. His life is in the hands of the man at the moment.
"OKs. I'll let go of your talent." The cloaked man let Steve go after getting approval from him.
Steve was finally free from the bond that ensnared him.
"Well, now tell me what to do?" Ask Steve to the point.
"Don't be in a hurry, buddy. You better rest first. Tomorrow morning come here early" said the man, patting Steve on the shoulder.
Steve was there staring at the cloaked man walking away from him.
Brakkk...
"Tch, I hate being threatened the most. But, is this guy really trustworthy?" Mumbled.
...*...*...
The next day...
This morning, Alex is seen relaxing while sipping coffee on the balcony of his new residence. A black car parked in his yard. A woman was seen descending from the old car. There is another man who is still busy to park his favorite old car.
"Alex!" Say hello Jessica.
Yep, they are Alex's best friends, Jessica and Verrel. They go to Alex's house every weekend, just like they used to.
"Hi, Jes. Come inside. I'm waiting for you here" said Alex from above.
Jessica seems so excited if it's dealing with Alex. He ran towards the stairs and as soon as possible climbed it to the top floor. He left Verrel still busy parking his car. Jessica spontaneously hugged Alex who was still sitting there.
"Hi, mate. How are you?" Ask Jessica.
"Aren't I always okay?" Tympano Alex.
"I'm serious!" Jessica Protests.
"Yes, I'm serious too. Btw, you're bad enough to leave Verrel, ", said Alex.
"Just let's. He has feet. Don't need me to carry, do you?"
"Yes, it's up to you. Girls are always right."
Not long after, Verrel had arrived upstairs with his breath looking like a flower there.
"Misone yourself long. Anyway, there are no demons here. Why go up alone?" Timpal Jessica's.
"Basic chick!" Verrel.
Verrel chases Jessica and Jessic tries to run. Alex still flinching in his position, enjoying a cup of coffee accompanied by a beautiful view of the morning and a soft music of his favorite.
"Alex, help me ahhh!" Shouted Jessica.
They both ran around Alex. "Don't lex, if you help him, ga bolo," Verrel said like a boy.
Alex just chuckles at hearing his two best friends who are really still childish. "You guys fit in. Why not just go out?" Alex suddenly interrupted the thing that was in his mind.
Jessica suddenly stopped and remained silent.
Does Alex really not have any feelings for me? How cruel did he say that?~Batin Jessica.
"Because of you!" Verrel had suddenly been behind Jessica, but the atmosphere had changed all of a sudden.
"That ah. I'm not in the mood" said Jessica.
"Lho, why?" Said Alex who was confused to see his best friend suddenly sulking.
"Bro, here I say." Verrel pulled Alex's hand to whisper something.
"Hum?"
"I don't know if it's Jessica..."
Not yet had Verrel finish his speech, a phone entered in Alex's phone.
"Hello, Uncle. What's up?" Ask Alex.
"Young man, I got word about Mr. Steve's whereabouts" said a man late there.
"really? All right, I'll be there soon."
...*...*...
The other...
Steve had been at the headquarters according to the address sent by the black-robed man.
"Haha. You're a real man on time. I've been spouting news accidentally about your presence abroad. There, there's a group of hit men I've hired" the man said.
"Lantas, what should I do and what does that have to do with me?" Ask Steve.
"Stupid!" Bump the guy right in Steve's face.
Steve could only hold his anger in front of him. In his entire life, he had never even received such humiliation.
"I regretted praising you yesterday. If it wasn't for me seeing you as having some ability, I wouldn't be willing to cooperate with you" the man said.
Steve looked at him questioningly.
"If I spread your information by accident, then Alex will be looking for you. I paid the hit man to finish Alex off..."
"Don't!" Steve's screech cut off the black-robed man's speech.
"NOT POLITE!"
Srakk...
The man swung his sword and injured his right arm.
"Sorry. I just want my niece to die at my hands" said Steve Lirih.
Damnit damnit! I'd rather die under Alex's hand then than be his slave. The man was so terrible,~Batin Steve.
"I don't care about his death. I only care about his watch" said the man.
"Hand watch?" Ask Steve.
"Yes. You have to get it" he replied.
"For what? What's so special about that watch?" Ask Steve.
"You don't need to know. You just have to manage to take it when he's weak at the hands of the hit man I hired." The man left Steve who was still there confused.
