ORION
Something is Awkward


Dicky, the pseudonym Chameleon uses. Men with slightly long red hair at the ends. Although this is dubious, but the words of this man are very convincing.


This made Orion a little worried. That's right, especially when this guy says that Chameleon is wandering around this town. His breath was heard by Mahanta.


“Our exchange is done. I'll leave first.”


“Good. Thanks for the info. Although you did not tell me the name or where the person was, but about his strength alone was clear.”


“Of course, there is something more great than just the name.”


“Are you insinuating the City Hero? A youngster like him, certainly nothing to Chameleon.”


“Haha, he's really strong. Please do not be underestimated,” said Mahanta waving his hand.


Then they came out of the informant's house. It feels like they just came out of a deadly cave. Mahanta and Orion sighed at the same time.


“How do you think, Orion?” ask Mahanta.


“Honestly I still suspect that information. There's no way Chameleon can be that easy to get. Moreover Miss Gista greatly underestimated the informant,” Orion thought.


“You might have a point too. Because Nian Gista does not really care about the existence of informants, it is clear that he gave false information,” said Mahanta.


Clap up! Mahanta closed the door after they got inside. Then drive the vehicle back.


“Nona Gista alone is difficult to find the whereabouts of Chameleon let alone him. It was clearly a scam. But even if what he said was true, then that means Chameleon deliberately let it go,” thought Mahanta.


While removing her headscarf, Orion said, “The trace is really hard to find. I'm getting curious how his face is.”


“One day you might meet him. But maybe not now,” said Mahanta.


In the end all the information they had heard was completely unhelpful. But maybe if Orion was looking for Dicky, then maybe another clue would present itself.


Orion stared out from behind the car window, as he folded his arms to the front of his chest, his sharp gaze as if looking in an even further direction.


Mahanta stole a glance at Orion who was now silent.


“You are very enthusiastic about Chameleon, yes?” mahanta tangent.


“Hei, Mahanta! I forgot to pay for drinks at the cafe. Quickly get there and pay for it!” he said by raising his voice.


Orion did not speak at all the words of Mahanta before. It was as if Orion had deliberately shifted the subject.


“Oh, jeez! I forgot our promise!” mahanta shouted in panic.


Immediately, his vehicle drove at a higher speed. They hurried to the cafe, where Mahanta and Orion should have gone to relax there.


“Hey, don't be too fast! It's already inside the housing tofu!” cry Orion, who feels that the speed of the car is getting faster.


“Iya, yes!”

After a few minutes, they reached the cafe. Orion felt nauseous but could not spit out anything.


“You okay?”


Mahanta was very anxious to see Orion's condition become like this. But it is also because of his own fault. Mahanta then stroked Orion's back so he could spit it out.


“Ergh. I can't vomit at all. The only ones out were vomiting air, haha!” crush Orion with a bland laugh.


Mahanta returned to the car and brought him a bottle of mineral water. Soon Orion drank it, and he was relieved.


“I'm sorry, I didn't know that you were a little drunk with the car,” Mahanta said with anxiety that increasingly plagued him.


It was clear that Orion's intention was to ask for black coffee. Because since then he has not drank his favorite coffee, even the milk coffee ordered was only drunk a little.


Because Orion was bored if he had to wait in the car, he went inside.


The atmosphere was bustling as usual but today, there were some customers who seemed to have a cut on their forehead. Not only customers, even all waiters or baristas. Except one guy.


“I came here to pay for Orion's drink. And, I ordered one black coffee,” Mahanta said as he sat on the front bench of the barista.


“Orion, you really like black coffee, huh?” ask Mahanta.


“Hm, yes, of course. I couldn't get the message because of my small body. They think I'm going to get a stomachache or something bad is going to happen to me, so,”.


After a while before the order came. Another barista appeared from the back room. Orion with him exchanged glances with each other with awkwardness.


Then the barista was surprised, turning his face away with sweat pouring out.


“Erik, the man avoided my gaze.” Orion.


“Wah, it turns out that the rude boy came back. Is he going to pay for his drink? But it's been paid,” Inner Erik.


Taps! Taps!


“Anu, excuse me. Are you the guardian of the child who is there?” erik asked Mahanta.


“Ah, yes. This cute kid is my responsibility now. Is there a problem? Or maybe Orion is in trouble here?” mahanta thought excessively.


“Hey, I'm not so, yes!” shalt Orion get angry.


Right now, there were several maids as well as the two baristas that were a little awkward before them. Or rather, awkward because of Orion.


Customers as well. Previously they were very enthusiastic to catch Orion who had rare blood. But now their guts are shrunk because behind Orion is the City Hero, Enderu.


Although previously they did not care, but there is one thing that makes them sure to no longer deal with Orion, the City Hero will not hesitate to beat them if Orion is targeted.


“Pe-order is already paid,” Erik said stammeringly.


“Who if I could know?” ask Mahanta.


“City Hero, he had come here earlier. So no need to worry about this payment problem anymore.”


“Ah, but, I'm ordering black coffee. So I will keep waiting here,” Mahanta said.


“Alright then.”

“Orion, I'll go outside for a while, yeah. You just wait here.”


Mahanta is about to get out, Orion thinks maybe Mahanta wants to pee. That's what's in his mind.


But 10 minutes passed, until the black coffee had been swallowed. Mahanta did not appear at all. So he decided to go look for her for a while.


The klining! The cafe door opened, making the sound of bells moving over the door. Orion's surprised.


“Mahanta! Where have you been?” ask Orion.


“Ah, you came back to this cafe huh? Thank goodness, I thought you would come back home without me,” Mahanta said with a big smile.


While Orion was silent, looking at him in confusion.
