21 - AGAINST FRIENDS.

【 THIRD PERSON 】

"Eh? Boys talk?" Faith asked when Norman prevented her from entering the library, Eli called Norman and Ray to the library to converse with them. He also told them not to let Emma and Faith from interrupting them.

"Uhm yeah, let's call it as that," Norman nodded as he shrugged his shoulder, Faith pouted and turned her back from him—but when Norman closed the door, she carefully move and put her ear near the door and listen.

"So, Eli. This is really a sudden comeback, we're not dumb to think that you just came here for nothing, right? Plus, you only have one year before they ship you out," Ray started and lean on the wall, he's staring intently to Eli who just came back after years of being away. Ray does feel happy about his sudden comeback. But, things haven't been good for them today, and Eli being here added doubt in his heart. 

"No welcome back?" Eli teased, however Ray just glared at him which made him chuckle.

"Always so serious. Yeah, I know, and I'm here for a mission, too. Mama gave a request from the higher-ups to summon me here," Eli answered, he throw himself to the chair and asked Norman to have a seat, too.

"She wants me to stop you four from escaping," He added. The girl who's listening outside grits her teeth as she continue to listen.

"But, who the heck would do that to his friends, right? If it's for all of you I'm freaking ready to die, I'm always ready after all," Eli glare at the floor and clenched his fist. Norman sat on the table and crossed his arms while looking at Eli. Faith, who's listening outside covered her mouth as she carefully listen to them, making sure not to make any noise.

"What do you mean? And why did she think that you can stop us?" It's Norman's turn to ask. He's curious because Eli suddenly came back without them knowing, their Mama never even told them about it.

"Yeah, that's how dumb she is. She really thought that she can use me against you---oh damn, how pathetic. She summoned me here because she thought that if it's me, I can stop you, she thought that if I don't come with you, you won't escape. Isn't that a dumb plan of her? Stupid thoughts, there's no way I'll let you stay here in this freaking farm," Eli spoke and chuckled as he smirk, he lean on the chair, crossed her legs and let his arms swing on his side. He had no plan on siding with Isabella at all. But, he needs to make sure that she won't know anything about it.

Suddenly, Eli unbuttoned his uniform and show the two guys  his chest. Both Ray and Norman were surprised to see a surgery scar on his chest. Faith had no idea what was happening outside and decided to keep listening.

"They put a microchip in my heart to make sure that I won't escape with you," Eli confessed that made the two flinched and clench their fist. Both of them clearly knows what the microchip can do, because the late Sister Krone told them about it.

"It's been four years since I left this house, and just last month---I undergone a surgery, where they put a microchip in my heart, it's because they're planning to send me here, because Mama asked them to. I'm relieved the higher-ups have no idea about the escape. Isabella, that wench, she thought...that if I don't come with you---you won't go. But, I'm telling you guys, you're stupid if you don't escape," Faith, on the other side, is listening while her eyes is tearing up, she can't take all the words she heard.

'A microchip in his heart? Just like Sister Krone? That means that the moment he took a step outside the plantation, his heart will get electrocuted?' She asked in her mind and wipe her tears as she started walking away from the library.
