Odyssey - How To Tame A Demon

Chapter 28: Redhead meditating

The whole day, Chuuya took care of his sick subordinate. In the evening, Fyo's fever finally subsided and to Chuuya's annoyance Fyo was back to his usual annoying self however in his state, he is still weak. It took a while for the Fyo to fall asleep.

Fortunately for Chuuya, there are available traditional clothes that are given to the guests. There's a beautiful colored kimono, simple yukata, as well as inner garments like a Fundoshi. Finally, Chuuya was able to wear proper clothing.

Chuuya has been cooped up in the room all day attending to his subordinate, he just wanted to go outside and walk. Wearing a Yukata, Chuuya sighs in relief that he can finaly go outside, however, before he could step away from the bed, a hand grab him. Chuuya's lips twitch as he thought he was already asleep.

"What now, you're all fed up, I gave you medicine. What do you need?" At the moment he praised all mothers for their patience when it comes to their children, small and naughty children. Chuuya closed his eyes and tried to suppress the internal turmoil that is starting to erupt inside of him.

"Youre going out, like that?" Fyo weakly asked. "Change into a Kimono" Fyo followed as he pointed out the drawer. Fyo ordered with a serious voice. Chuuya was annoyed that even after the auction Fyo still wants him to wear a femine clothes.

"Tch, and who the hell are you to boss me around huh?"

Fyo did not answer, and just stare at the redhead, but soon he lost consciousness and fell asleep again. Restraining himself to grab the pillows and suffocate the tall guy, he looked back at the drawer.

"Tch, no way, wear that your own" Chuuya retorts to the sleeping Fyo and walks out taking his phone and cards which was the only left from his bag. Since the hotel was small, there's not much personnel he could order to get him some clothes from the stores. Therefore Chuuya immediately step inside to the first clothing boutique he saw in the prefecture. With a smile and humming his favorite tune, he grab a basket and take a handful of clothes in men section, some shoes and some hats to his liking. Across the street he saw a restaurant anticipating the food he would eat later on after his shopping. And with a smile still he approached the cashier. For a short while, the suffocation while working with the insufferable jackass purple-eyed and his god forsaken dress has gone and truly he was in a good mood.

However, his smiles was cut of by the mechanical sound from the cash machine computer, his card was declined. The cashier, swiped the card again but same result happened. "Apologies sir, do you perhaps have another card we could use, this card seemed to be not working and is declined"

"Huh, what do you mean by decline!" Chuuya annoyingly shouted at the cashier.

980 USD, it was his outstanding balance. Chuuya walks out of the store empty-handed, face red from embarrassment and anger after his scuffle with the store people. He called the Port Mafia HQ, but remembering his call earlier, his calls were unanswered. It still confused him why his card was declined. Just two days ago he was able to use it.

...

In his mind, Ogai Mori the Port Mafia's words still rings in his head. Secrecy, no one should know that the Port Mafia has anything to do with the keys. Chuuya was afraid that if he makes a ruckus in the store, it might become a lead if the people of the auction personnel investigate, therefore full of restraint of beating and blowing up the store, and he walks out of the store leaving the basket full of clothes. The store personnel was kind enough to calmly explain the situation to Chuuya, but the eyes of the people and other customers are what gave him the most anxiety.

Never would have Chuuya thought that he would end up in his current situation. Ever since he joined the Port Mafia, he was never short on money, theft and murder were not uncommon to him even before the port mafia. At that moment he remembers the times when he was still in the Sheep organization, the good as well as the bad memories with its members.

He was saved by them, but was betrayed in the end which was instigated by Dazai. "Tch, Dazai" he spats at the memory of his former partner, but soon closed his eyes as another image of a condescending prick appears in his mind namely Fyo. He just wanted to forget about them and relax.

"Tch, why can I have peace of mind Ugghh"
