After wandering around for several hours outside the base of the Port Mafia, Chuuya couldn't resist to see your blissful smile, your calming voice, and your warm aura.

He went ahead and entered through the building of the agency, walking up to the elevator and roughly pushing the button.

As the automatic doors opened, it what such a coincidence to meet you eye to eye. Chuuya exclaimed, "Y/n!"

With such a surprise, you raised your voice at him as you spoke of his name. "Chuuya! What are you doing here?"

Not waiting for his response, you dragged him out of that place by holding tight on his wrist. It was quite risky for him to be there if ever your colleagues had detected the mafioso trespassing.

You led him just by the side of the street that's near the building of the office. Chuuya stood in front of you, his hand placed on top of his hat.

"I guess it wasn't our last time to see each other." you spoke with a glad tone, smiling at the man.

He replied, now placing his hand on the side of his hip, "Well, I didn't mean it that way. I knew Aya wouldn't be seen around that much in public anymore. To keep her safe, remember?"

"Ah, you do have a point. Although it is quite sad that she won't see you for a while. How do we manage that?"

"I have a decision in mind, but I'm not sure yet."

"I know time's running for us but don't pressure yourself. It's no good if you were just forced to do something out of hand."

"Mhm, you're right. You know, just talking with you today has strengthened my resolve. Thank you, Y/n."

"Huh? Hmm, you're welcome? What's your decision then?"

"I'm gonna leave the Port Mafia."

You felt like the world stopped spinning as silence and slow motion came to your senses. Your eyes stuck to his and your hearing became nonexistent.

Your brain couldn't process well at that moment, thinking if this decision is good or not. If you should be happy and rejoicing or not.

Chuuya continued his statement with a disheartened expression, "Murder and death shouldn't coexist between our love. Because of my occupation, I let this happen. Now, I feel so selfish to keep you to myself even though it's unsafe."

"Don't say that. Please! Do you seriously think it's only you that wants this relationship to stay alive?" you fought back with a tensed up gaze.

"Y/n, if I could bring you to a future where we live peacefully, I will do it right away." Chuuya reached out to your hand and held it firmly to his warming palm.

You pulled him to your direction and embraced him tightly. "What happened to your badass look? You always acted tough and mighty. Where did all that go? Cheer up already, Chuuya."

Chuuya spoke of your name in such a gentle tone, sneaking a peek at what could be your expression is right now. What is this mixture of anger and sadness to your eyes? Not knowing whether you should frown?

"You're right, Y/n. I don't know what's gotten into me lately. Maybe I just keep thinking about you more than myself?" He said, letting out a small chuckle at the end to which a tint of blush came to your cheeks as you found his response as cute.

You felt the end of your lips lifted and you couldn't stop replaying in your head his genuine small laughter. How lucky of you to witness this other side of him.

"Hmm, so this is what's going on. How intriguing..." Mori said as he stared with a malicious sight at the photograph of you and Chuuya sharing a heartwarming embrace.

Kouyou replied, looking quite bothered, "Unfortunately, yes. What is your response to this, boss?"

The boss just carelessly threw the photograph away, making it fall on the floor, as he sighed heavily, "What else can we do? It's not like I can just make him disappear, no?"

Right after he spoke, Kouyou could sense a deadly glare from the man sitting in front of him. She could only feel a heightened fear and death coming her way.

With this fear circulating inside her veins, she had a begging expression towards the terrifying monster, saying, "Not Chuuya. Erase anyone but him."

Mori first showed a surprised look but then gradually turned to a wicked grin as he rested his chin on top of his hand. "I figured you'd say that, Kouyou. I'm listening to your request."

"That girl, Y/n. Make her disappear instead. Chuuya didn't even have anything to do with this matter to begin with!"

"Then what about the photograph you have given to me?"

"It's proof that the agency is planning something against the Port Mafia."

"Hmm, you do have a point that this could be just a scheme of that woman in the picture. Why don't we make that real then?"

"Eh..? Wait, so you don't believe what I just said?"

"Kouyou, do you really think you can twist my mind with your hideous lies? I know what is true and I stick with it."

And just like that, the lady has been turned down to dust. She couldn't reply anything back at the boss. For a while, Kouyou has forgotten who she is talking to that made her lose the respectful tone she had to the man.

"Make sure to keep an eye on that woman. Got it? Don't do anything reckless unless I say so. You're free to leave." Mori said, his pissed-off look was obviously shown at the end.

Kouyou exited the room with a defeated and anxious look on her face, a sweat dropped by her forehead. Soon, she passed by Chuuya who had a confident aura trailing him.

She paused on her tracks and turned to look at the man who simply ignored and walked passed her. A stunned expression stayed still on the lady while watching her colleague's figure shrunk as distance came between them.

Chuuya...not you. Why can't you just stay put? Kouyou thought to herself.

Chuuya barged in Mori's office only to find him smirking and looking like he had been anticipating for his appearance.

"It's nice to see you back, Chuuya. Are you done with your resting hour?" Mori questioned, holding his grin.

"I guess you could say that. I came here to speak about something very important, boss." Chuuya answered, standing with great posture and all.

"Oh? What could it be that is very important to discuss about right now?" the boss leaned in closer than before as he was extremely interested in the current situation.

"I want to resign and leave the Port Mafia for good."
