Yours // Mikey

Fifty - Treasure

I scanned their territory the moment I stepped in the entrance. The uneasiness in my heart rose as my eyes literally witnessed the numbers their gang have. We're now really powerless against them even if we try to escape.

"After you." Ran gestured, again with his lazy but a somewhat cheerful smile.

He let me walk first, followed by him and his brother, then the three who almost fought with the Haitani brothers earlier when they tried to separate me from them.

And as usual, there were whispers.

"That's Toman's girl..."

"The Black Dragons' treasure, right?"

"Not anymore," someone said and made everybody chortle.

I pursed my lips and somehow agreed.

Yeah. Not anymore.

"People say she's the top of their class."

"Both beauty and brains. Definitely fit for Tenjiku's lady."

Beauty and brains, huh.

"Izana-san chose the right person."

"Hhmm, I can't say she's the right person."

"Me neither, but I don't care. At least we got her."

"Yeah. We stole her from Toman. Hahaha!"

"I heard she's a fighter."

"She helped defeating the Black Dragon's 10th leader."

"She's good."

Not really.

"She's also pretty ho—S-sorry..."

My brows creased. I looked back at the brothers who that person made eye contact with. They only responded with their loafing but cocky smiles. I shook my head and proceeded.

"But what if she betrays the gang?"

"She won't if she wants to live."

"She already betrayed her gang. Who would accept her now?"

"Mikey will," I confidently uttered under my breath where no one but me could hear. "Mikey will... always understand."

I want to go home.

I miss you.
