The Other Different Side

CHAPTER 1 : The Stupid Encounter

*Inside my apartment*

It's Friday morning, my girl best friend Lian called me on the phone and she is inviting me to come with her tonight at a club in Gotham City, by the way she lives in Gotham. She invited me because we wanted to celebrate her birthday in advance.

So, I accepted her invitation and went to her apartment, we went to the club together. It was already 6:00pm when we arrived. We went inside, it was so crowded with a lot of drunk party people and the music was so loud, I couldn't even hear my own voice. I didn't expect that Lian had invited so many people for her celebration especially some guys, I was expecting that only Lian and I will be at this celebration. Like she wants to have a friendly date with me. But nah...

We spent an hour partying, they pressured me to drink some hard drinks like Tequila and different types of whiskies, I had no choice. I admit, I got pretty drunk that night. We were all in a private reserved room inside the bar, they were drinking, smoking, and the others were dancing wildly too, I got a little uncomfortable. An hour had passed, and I approached Lian.

*Inside the private reserved room*

Me to Lian : Hey Lian, can I be excused? I'll just go to the restroom, I'll be back for a minute.

She then replied to me : Sure just be quick, ok?

Me to Lian : Of course, sure.

Then I went outside the room and went to the restroom for a minute, then I went back to the private room. I forgot the private room's door number that Lian reserved, Is it room number 8, 6, or is it 7?

I whispered to myself : Oh shit...

My Gosh, I was kinda stupid that time, I picked room number 7.

When I got inside the room, the room was pretty quiet. I saw a guy, his hair was slicked back and faded, his left eyebrow has a slit or is it cut? And he has dark green eyes, his skin is pale as white, his presence is cold, intimidating, and serious. He is full of tattoos on his chest and arms. He is wearing a black coat unbuttoned with a long sleeved maroon polo underneath.

I first saw him drinking alone sitting on the couch inside the room, I saw the top of the table in front of him full of bottles of whiskey and opened suitcases with a lot of money and some guns inside. I was shocked, scared, and embarrassed, because I accidentally intruded on his room and space right now. And I saw him Irritated and intrigued as I got inside the room.

*Inside the room number 7*

Me quickly spoke with a polite yet embarrassed voice : Oh shit.. I'm so sorry, I think I got into the wrong room.

The guy then looked at me and spoke with shock, intimidation, and irritation : What the?!

I saw his expression shocked yet getting mad and full of rage, I saw his cold eyes staring intensely at me. I felt intimidated and embarrassed that time, My heart beat went fast as I got tensed. I can't escape this moment, I felt like I want to shrink, melt, and sink down to the floor all at the same time.

Me to the guy : Uhm, I think I should go now. and again I'm so sorry, I didn't really mean to-

He didn't let me finish of what I am about to say.

The guy : Really?! Who the heck are you?! And do you think you can just apologize and I'll let you go after you see these things right in front of you now?

Yes he is pointing out to the suitcases full of money and some guns inside. His voice scared me, it is full of anger and irritation as if he could kill me anytime right now.
