Alone Again

CHAPTER 10

SOMEWHERE IN THIS WORLD

"I don't want your freaking possibilities. I want solid proof. I won't spare any of you if you don't bring me enough proof." That unknown person banged his/her hand on the table made everyone flinch. Her/his dark aura sent shivers to everyone's bone. Those dark black orbs were full of rage, hatred and revenge. "We... we are trying our best. They are so clever that it's really hard to track them." One of the men spoke while stuttering continuously. He/she threw the pen stand towards him but thanks to his good reflex he saved himself from getting a perfect headshot. "That's all rubbish talk. I want results, we don't have enough time." He/she got up from his/her chair and went towards the glass window while looking at the outside night sky with dark eyes. "I can't wait forever."

MEANWHILE

"GUYS, SHUT UP."

"How you dare to touch my precious strawberries?"

"I am ALLERGIC TO THEM. I DIDN'T TOUCH YOUR FREAKING STRAWBERRIES."

"YOU ARE LYING" Eric was bickering with Ella over his strawberries. He wanted to eat the strawberries which he had brought yesterday but someone else had already eaten them. He was blaming Ella for that theft but that Dumbo forgot she is allergic to them. Lydia was sitting in the living listening to their bickering while holding her head in her hands. She tried to stop Eric from shouting but he is really sensitive for his strawberries.

"Seriously Eric, you are fighting over simple strawberries." Lydia said while speaking in-between their fighting. Eric turned toward Lydia with shocked expression. "Simple strawberries, you think these are just strawberries? No, Lydia they are not just simple strawberries they are the best fruit you have ever seen in this world. This fruit is the perfect balance of sweetness and sourness."

"I disagree, Dragon fruit is way much better than strawberry." Lydia said while cutting off Eric's lecture. "Shush, that fruit is forbidden in this house. We only talk about strawberries." Eric continued to give the iconic strawberry lecture for another whole damn ten minutes till everyone heard Evan coming downstairs. "What's going on? Why you guys are bickering so much."

"A damn moron ate his strawberries and now he is lecturing us over it." Ella said while rolling her eyes dramatically. "That moron is you."

"I AM ALLERGIC." Ella shouted to clear the confusion again.

"Well I ate those strawberries. I had nothing to eat in middle of night and saw some strawberries so I ate them. Sorry Eric, but man those were delicious." Evan said while winking at Eric

"YOU FREAKING PYSCHO, OF COURSE THEY WERE DELICIOUS. THEY WERE STRAWBERRIES. " Eric was about to jump over Evan before everyone held him from behind.

"Woah, that's a lot of shouting in the morning." Everyone's gaze went toward the man standing at the entrance of the house. Alex was standing outside the house. "Sorry, Eric has gone crazy." Lydia said while still pulling Eric behind. "Why?" Alex asked while coming inside the house. "Evan ate his strawberries." Lydia rolled her eyes. "Oooh, that's sensitive." Alex said while smiling like an idiot. "See, he understands me." Eric said while throwing his hands in the air. "Alex, please don't encourage him." Ella said while looking at him. "Sorry, well I was here because I think it's time we start doing something productive." He said while sitting at the couch comfortably. "Like what?" Olivia asked with confused face. "Spying, we need to spy on that Josh." He said deepening his voice. "Spying? That's some really trouble thing." Lydia said while raising her eyebrows. "We must do it because if we need some real solid proof we need to spy on him and I think Lydia, you are the best for this job." Alex said pointing at her. "Me? Are you kidding? You know he knows me, right?" Alex said Oooh in very low tone. "What about Ella, Elisa or Olivia?" Everyone looked at him weirdly. "Firstly, why only girls for this mission; Secondly, you are pervert man and thirdly he knows them too." Evan said while sipping on his smoothie. "I ain't pervert bro; he is looking for personal assistant."
