Rage Of The Titans // Hyunlix //

✨ UNDERWORLD✨

🏺All roads leads to hell🏺

The club had a perculiar vibe. A thick layer of artificial fog was covering people in the dark space

The patrons we're enjoying the setting, basking in the crimson neon lights, at some point I just stopped , looking around

There were too many people. It made me feel uneasy.

Chan noticed my embarrassment and also stopped

"Are you okay?

"Not used to being in places like this

"Not a fan of clubs?

"Not a fan of crowds

"I didn't know you were an introvert. Don't worry, it shouldn't take long. We should be done soon. Do you trust me?

He offered me his hand, clearly expecting an answer.

I took his hand, putting my palm onto his and he squeezed it tightly

"Finally some rapport between us . I thought I'd never see it".
He smiled and I followed him deeper into the club.

"Have a sit. Is there anything you want?

Before I could answer, he gestured a nearby waitress.

She put on a big smile and swayed her hips as she headed towards us

"Hi, good evening. I'm Lia. What can I get you?

"Hi sweetie. What are the options?

Sweetie?

I couldn't but rolled my eyes and it didn't go unnoticed.

"So...... What are the options?

"I can get you....London mint swizzle, Toddy grog or virgin mogito

"Toddy grog Please

"Same as him

"Great choice! I'll go get your drinks

Chan turned and beamed at me charmingly

"Why did you react strangely when I called her sweetie?

"Do you call all waitresses "sweetie" or just the pretty ones?

"So you think she's pretty

I felt my face turning red.

"Can't deny the obvious

"Is that a yes?

"Thats---" I wanted to finish my sentence but the girl came back with the drinks

"Thank you sweetie". He gave me a doubtful look and took his glass with an innocent air

The waitress hurried to another table

"You're a horrible person, you know that right?

"Of course. It keeps me up at night" he smiled

I smiled, took a couple sips, and put the glass back on the table , leaning back

"Let's get to the point. What did you find?

"You know, you're a funny one. Your reaction seems...strange. I don't mean to offend you
Just, you know... Usually everyone who comes to the precinct has the same expression on their faces---
At first they scream and blame the cops, and then the hysterics are replaced by fear and you find your self sitting, surrounded by paper napkins and calming down another wronged person"

"...."

"And you seem too.....calm , I guess?. It's scary and fascinating at the same time."

I thought about what he said. Indeed I wasnt showing any particular emotion. But that didn't mean I wasn't in pain.
