When the stranger turned to see me, he jumped with excitement and removed his sunglasses then ran to hug me...

I WAS SHOCKED SO I PUSHED HIM LIGHTLY AND YELLED "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?"

"P'Pete... I missed you" that voice is enough for me to recognize who he is?

"Ma- Ma- Macau" I was really shocked to see him with Vegas but what Macau is doing with Vegas?

"P'Pete, I really missed you... Don't disappear from me again please P'Pete, please, please" Macau continuously mummared while hugging me, I was really shocked..... I hugged him back... No words coming from my mouth.... Macau is searching for warmth in my embrace. I know him well so I patted his back smoothly to calm him down.

After all, he was seeing me after years... Back then he was attached to me like a cola bear. So, it's normal for him to miss me... I also missed this little chatterbox... Then I remembered someone's presence, so I looked at Vegas' face, he seemed shocked too......

Then I realised one thing, Why is this bastard Vegas taking minors with him? Why Macau? I want to slap him hard but first, I have to convince the chatterbox in my arms.

So, I focused only on Macau, "Macau I am here, I am not going anywhere, Macau your P'Pete is not going anywhere na. First calm down.... please calm down Macau, my little chatterbox na..." I teased him.

I tried to calm him down but he started to shiver. Why is he shivering? Did his papa abuse him today, as always? The thought itself terrified me, so I broke the hug immediately and removed his mask, and scanned his face thoroughly.

Does he have any bruises? I searched Every inch of his face but there is no evidence. So I asked him "Chatterbox did your pa hit you again? Did your pa scold you? Did anyone hurt you or did anyone force you? Tell me baby, you remember right, If you tell me the truth I will take you to a magical world".... It's our secret comfort method so I tried that but Macau eyes become watery. I was damn worried...

But he slowly murmured "No one hurt me P'Pete" I let out a huge breath "Then why are you acting like this baby, You know how much I worried about you" I asked him while caressing his cheeks. Suddenly he hugged me again "I missed you P'Pete... you left me... You left me without even saying goodbye" he sobbed. Oh my baby...

I don't understand why he is missing me so much?... I know he likes me but why is he missing me so much then I turn to see Vegas reaction.... He was still the same, he didn't move a bit. so, I took Macau's wrist and guided him to sit near the chair.

When I tried to talk Macau Vegas came in a rush and snatched the mask from my hand then put it on Macau's face again. Then he scolded Macau in a harsh tone which I hate the most

"You should not be recognised by anyone here and don't cry.... Why are you crying like a baby? Are you a kid? If you cry like this now, tomorrow morning your face will turn into a pig... Do you want that? Didn't you say this morning that you're not a kid? But now it seems like you're acting that way"

I was furious to hear Vegas' words so I stood and pushed Vegas and went between them "Don't talk to him like that... Is this how you treat minors? Don't you be ashamed to take minors with you, Vegas. don't you have a brain" I yelled. Macau held my arms.

"It's ok Macau Don't be afraid I'm here... He can't hurt you" I assured him.

"But- P'Pete"

"Oh...." I turned to see Vegas...Vegas smiled then again ordered Macau "Put your glasses Mac... NOW. DO. IT. NOW "
