Mix had enough.
At first, he thought that he could manage with that annoying dog following him everywhere. That he could just simply ignore him and pretend he wasn't there. But sooner or later, the cup had to overflow, and for Mix, it was way sooner than later.
It was just a morning after he told himself that the guy standing on the street in front of his window didn't bother him, but then, his friend who helped him to find a place to stay while in Barcelona, visited him and when she was leaving, Mix saw the guy following her around for a bit before he returned to his usual spot. That had changed the situation completely. It was one thing stalking Mix, but his friend had nothing to do with the mess he was in. And he wasn't about to let anyone drag her into it. A lot of people have already been hurt because of him. But enough was enough!
He grabbed the keys from a small coffee table in the entrance hall and ran down the stairs, stepping out of the building and feeling the light rain tickling his skin. He looked from left to right and when he was sure that no car was in sight he crossed the street, making his way straight towards his stalker.
If the guy was surprised to see Mix approaching him, he didn't let it show. Standing calmly like a statue, he watched Mix's every step from under his hat.
"Who are you?" Mix stopped right in front of the guy. "Or you know what? Let me guess, the mafia sent you? You know what? Stalk me how much you want to, but leave my friend alone! Get it?"
"Boss ordered to keep an eye on you until you return home," the man said. His voice stoic. Almost robotic.
"Why does your boss want to keep an eye on me? What does he think I'm going to do all the way here?"
"You have to be safe."
Mix chuckled, "the one who keeps attacking everyone around me wants me to be safe? But you know what? You can tell your boss to not worry—I'm going back to Thailand soon. In fact, I'm going to book a ticket right now!"
Mix didn't wait for the man to say anything else, he just turned around and left as fast as he came, running across the street, he disappeared from the man's view into the building in less than a minute.
Only when he got back to his flat and locked the door he started to feel how fast his heart was beating in his ribcage. He did risk a lot. After all, he wasn't sure that the man who was stalking him was someone from the mafia who didn't have the intention to kill him. It could as easily be some random creep who stalks people before he kills them.
Whatever, Mix threw the keys back on the coffee table and went straight to his laptop to look for the possible flights to Bangkok. His trip to Barcelona was ending way faster than he thought it would. It felt simultaneously like he had just arrived and also like he had been away from Earth for centuries. Earth was actually the only thing that was sparkling some kind of fire of excitement in Mix to actually go back home. Mix knew that he needed to go back sooner or later because of all the things that were happening back home and especially becuase he didn't want to make Earth go through it all alone any longer, but it still felt like it was all happening way too fast.
