I) 5 - "DEAL"

• October 22nd, 2023 : 6PM...|

Seeing as she gasped, Ekko was now suspicious. She seemed clueless in the beginning but her last reaction just confirmed that treasure existed, and it was somewhere in here. "So, will you answer or nah ?" He asked sitting more comfortably on the chair, despite being tightly tied, spreading his legs. He felt like he could break those though, but it wasn't the moment just yet. "I totally know what you're talking about." She smiled proud. Leaning her face closer to his, she smirked. "But why would I tell you ?" She chuckled raising her eyebrows, totally provoking him.

He sighed, furrowing his eyebrows. That girl was seriously going to make his head explode. "Cause if you don't I'mma beat yo smart ass." He simply answered smirking. "Blah blah blah, can you speak in other languages than threats ? Because you're actually in no positions to be making some." She rolled her eyes leaning back wards.

"Listen I don't have time to waste with ya so just tell me and I'll leave, I can see you don't give a shit about it anyways." He said. Sitting back straight, Jinx mocked him "I don't really care about it for sure, but daddy does." She answered. He again clicked his tongue, everything seemed to be a game for her and he didn't like it, there was even a chance this treasure didn't even exist and she just came up with it seeing her late reaction when he mentioned it.

"So your 'daddy' owns this place huh ?" Ekko licked his lips looking sideways, he understood she might be the daughter to the CEO or maybe one of his brainless bitches. It was maybe time to break out. He had advantages, she looked really weak, she couldn't hold a gun and he had more weapons inside his coat. He could take her down really easily. "Yes, and I have a deal." She smiled resting her head on her palm. She was now positioned cross legged on him. "If you take me with you, I'll give it to you." She offered whispering in his ear.

During their conversation, this idea had been growing in her head. It was a great occasion, her father wasn't home and this guy seemed experienced and above all, fun. If he was boring she'd eventually rather wait for her father. But much to her surprise, the boy started to laugh making her frown. What was so funny ? She raised an eyebrow quickly annoyed by the fact he was mocking her and decided to slap him once more as his face turned to the side. "Bitch ! Will you stop that ?" He spat upset, which made her giggle, that was something to laugh at, his reaction and change of mood, almost reminded her of herself. "Just wait till I break those I'm gonna beat yo ass." He scoffed.

"My daddy told me men don't hit women, you must be some sort of primitive being if you do so." She commented shrugging as he sighed just wondering when would he be free from her. "So will you take me ?" She asked again having his attention. This time he made sure not to laugh, because her slaps really stings.

"No." He answered as she pouted. "Why not ?" She said in a weak voice as he scoffed. "Maybe because you're a little psychotic, and slapping me when you feel like it, I would never want to deal with someone like you." He spat and from the look in her eyes he saw that he hit a sensible spot, and he would feel bad if she wasn't so annoying. She stood up and started stroking her braided hair while walking in circle "Just free me I gotta go, you can do your run away thing by yourself." He added trying to get her to do what he wanted since she seemed in a weak state.

"B—but it's my birthday ! You can't leave me here ?" She muttered looking at him, questioning herself. He could  leave her here indeed, but she didn't want to. Ekko frowned at her attitude. "What's wrong with you ? Why do y'all live so far from everything anyway ?"

She squeezed her lips hesitant to answer, he noticed her mood and personality went from confident careless bitch to insecure, and deep down, it touched him because her being all alone here was kind of disturbing and suspicious. Plus the fact that she was calling her father « daddy » when she may be his age ?
