Jury's POV:
"I said, don't walk behind me."
Napaatras ako nang kaunti nang magsimulang magtitigan ang dalawang lalaking nasa harapan ko, si Noah at ang lalaking sumusunod saamin.
The guy suddenly smiled at him, "I didn't expect you to bring someone here with you."
Noah didn't anwered, instead, he just clenched his teeth.
"It was his order, wasn't it?"
Kumunot ang noo ko sa sinabi niya.
"It was his order..." Lumapit siya sa lalaki at kinuwelyuhan ito, "wasn't it?"
I remained frowning and thinking what's happening right now.
... Who's order is he talking about?
Noah's POV:
---
"A party... Will you come over tonight?"
I lazily tapped on my phone while resting the back of my head on the sofa, after tapping the button, I placed my phone at the bottom of my other phone that I'm using to call Chase.
"No." The female voice of the text to speech site that I'm using spoke, I heard him grunt at the other line.
"Come on! I'm not gonna buy it! See you later, okay?! Bye!"
"W-Wait -"
Sumama ang itsyura ko nang ibaba niya ang tawag, I tossed both of my phone somewhere on the sofa and rest my feet on top of the small table in front of me.
I sighed.
I'm too lazy to go...but it's a party. Chase wanted to be there.
"I don't know anyone who can tag along with me." I crossed my arms over my chest and grumpily looked at the TV screen at the front.
I don't go alone at the party, me and Chase usually go together. Why the hell did he went there this early? And worst...without me! Is he even my friend? Why is he leaving like this?!
I annoyingly groaned before throwing my head back.
If only I know someone...
Wait...
I know someone.
Kinuha ko ulit ang cellphone ko at hinanap sa contacts ko ang pangalan ni Jury, I almost forgot that we got a deal about it.
I chuckled as I type my message.
I actually don't care about the deal, he has a reason why he dented my car last time. Unlike that Gideon who out of nowhere crushed the front of my car while I'm in the middle of the house party. I was just messing around him and never expected that he would punch me and man, he sure has the force. Nagpasa ang pisngi ko dahil sa suntok niya, I wonder where he learned it... It's too impossible that he could punch like that without any proper training.
Plus... He punch like an out-boxer too.
Pagkatapos kong makipag-usap kay Jury sa message ay agad akong nagpalit ng damit at lumabas ng bahay. I went inside my car and drive towards their subdivision.
Hininto ko ang sasakyan sa labas ng gate ng subdivision nila at doon naghintay.
I just found out that his brother came home earlier, I'm not being a coward that's why I didn't straight drove towards their house, it's just... It's too weird to face his brother. What am I even gonna say if he ask me about my relation with his brother?
