LOVE OR DEAD
CHAPTER XVIII: BEING TARGETED BY THE AIHARA CLAN

The end of the fight, Kawaki came up to me looking at me carefully.

“Hey...why are you?, Is this your first time holding a gun?” ask Kawaki to me with a flat face.

“I shot him, did he die?” I turned back with a passive pale face.

Kawaki made sure the body lying not far from me sat down. He checked the man's pulse and breathing.

“He's alive, relax. Have you never killed anyone?” ask Kawaki while smiling cynically.

“I am not you, do not equate me with you” I replied while looking at him sharply.

He clutched my jaw firmly, “What do you think I am? I can kill you here if I want”.

A car sped up from behind and stopped in front of us. Asahi and the thick-browed twins came to us.

“Young Master, are you good – fine?” asahi asked to confirm the condition of her employer.

“Of course I am good – fine, they are from Aihara clan. Looks like they've started attacking, I won't spare them. Do our mission as soon as” Kawaki also began to smile cunningly.

“Good, 90% we have prepared. Tomorrow we will maximize the remaining 10% of the mission preparation” replied Asahi.

Hatori memapahku the limp, “Are you good – is fine?”.

“I shot my man”.

“Please yourself, in this case you do self-defense. No need to be dizzy and forget” Hatori tried to calm me down.

Kawaki stared at us cynically, “Since when have you guys been that familiar?”.

“I was just trying to help her” said Hatori who was still embracing me helping me to stand up properly.

“Leave him, let him use his own feet. He doesn't need to be helped” ketus Kawaki.

Hatori let me go, Hotaru approached his brother.

“My car runs out of gas, I will use this car (pointing the car Asahi used). Make sure everything's cleared up, I don't want any news in the media about tonight. Headline News must be when the Aihara clan perishes in total” Kawaki orders.

“Baik” says they.

Kawaki pulled me up into the car, took my backpack from the previous car.

I still froze as if I couldn't believe what I was doing.

“I killed since I was 7 years old, in my world any weapon is used for self-defense. So there is no need to feel guilty and dramatize about it” he admitted.

He helped me with my seat belt, holding my still-shaking hand.

“See me” he said bring his face closer to me.

“Nothing to regret about tonight, understand” he said firmly.

I just nodded with a flat look at him.

Kawaki drove me to the front of the house, no words adorning our farewell that night.

Dad sitting in the living room, “Chiyoo... the night you go home, do not play until you forget the time like this. Outside very dangerous”.

“Sorry dad, I was from a friend's house he asked me to teach him some new chapters. I don't know if time is fast passing, until this hour I said I was lying.

“Alright, go to your room. Tomorrow you have to go to school, take a shower and get some sleep” said Dad as he walked me to my room.

“Thank you” I said as I opened my room door.

I'm lying in the room staring at the sky – sky of my room, “Let's try to forget today's events”.

A few days later, when Sunday comes.

“Hei Chiyo..” sweep.

“What are you doing here?” many wonder.

“I will be your regular customer, welcome well. I brought Hotaru to try as much as” she replied excitedly.

“Choose, I give you a discount only this time” Miyaki said.

“Really?” Hatori asked with fiery eyes – neatly.

“Miyaki... if you want to give discounts to customers, they have a lot of money always partying – pora” my protest.

“You are indeed stingy” Hatori said.

They sat down with some cakes of their choice, very excited at the meal. Like a kid who finds new flavors of candy.

I approached them, sat down at a table.

“You are free today?” my many.

“This afternoon we were assigned to play with you” Hotaru said.

“Cih... who wants to play with you guys, go home” I said.

“Chiyo... don't go anywhere today, because the Aihara clan is already targeting mu” Hatori said with a serious face.

“Why me? And who is Aihara clan what does it have to do with me?” I was confused and a little surprised.

“That night, was one of its members. The Aihara clan spied – matai Kawaki, whereas you are the person they saw a few times with him. The Aihara clan is the enemy of the Endo clan that is our organization. That night's incident will probably repeat” explained Hatori.

Degh.

“Calm down, we will take care of you” Hotaru added.

Miyaki approached us with a face full of suspicion.

“What are you discussing? Why is it so serious, what do you want?” ask Miyaki to investigate.

“We do not discuss strange things, do not try to find out or eavesdrop” I said.

“By the way – says you guys don't seem to be high school kids, nor are you Hiroshi's friends. Where are you at, how do you know Chiyo?” Miyaki started interrogating.

“We met on the beach then just made friends” Hotaru said.

“Owh yes...where did you go to school?” ask Miyaki to make sure.

“We do not continue school” I Hotaru.

“Lantas what do you do?” ask Miyaki again.

“Hmm. they are a security” I replied briefly.

“Really?” Miyaki doesn't believe it.

“Already, do not bother them with many questions. They're our new customers” as fast as the interrogation of Miyaki.

“Alright.. don't forget to buy for people at home ya” added Miyaki then passed.

Me and the thick-browed twins were finally able to sigh in relief from escaping Miyaki's introgression.

“Intinya we are here to visit you, as well as warn you to be careful – hearts. Before our mission is completed, your position is not safe” added Hatori as the final of our talks.

They also came home with a lot of cake, he said it would be distributed to the team. At least this time Hatori brought a car so it fits a lot.

On the other hand I was anxious, about what they said about me being one of their enemy's targets. Hope all this ends quickly.
