"Ah, the traitor is finally here..." Race watched the man slowly approaching Atlas, and Race's heart beat every steps of the man. "Are you here to fetch your lover?"

Lover? Did he knew? Wait-

Race realized what does the man mean to say. Race remembered that he said to Bridgette that 'what will happen to him if he knew that I got his lover?', and Race come to an idea that the man didn't know everything. The man thought that Bridgette and Atlas was a thing. They captured them and held them captive in this strange and horror place.

"Leave them alone,"

Race watched Atlas talked, very collected just like before and he's calmed. He never shown fears, he stand there tough than anyone. He stand there in front of the man who Race feard with head held high. He's not backing away. Atlas will not going to back away because of this.

Race didn't realized that he slowly smiled at his reverie. He blinked when he realized that Atlas was staring at him longer, staring at his soul. There's a longing in his eyes. There's loneliness in his eyes. There's relief in his eyes. A lot of emotions in his eyes as Atlas continued staring at Race.

"You hate your parents right? But why did you help them escape?" The man's sharp voice really made Race's shivered.

"I hate them so much for making my life hell. But therr are still my parents and I did not oath not to help them when they need me." Atlas retorts was calmed.

Race wondered why Atlas was not afraid of this guy, and why does it seems like they knew each other?

"You know that I hate people who defy me-"

"And I hate people who never accept their defeat-"

The man's laugh echoed. His head fall back as he laughed so hard.

"Me?! Defeat? Are you insane?!" He laughed again while looking at Atlas, perhaps he thought that Atlas was crazy to say that.

Race didn't understand what they are talking about, and when he looked on his side it's like he's not alone. Bridgette also was confused, she watched them with a confused looked. When she whipped her head to his direction Bridgette whispered, "what's on earth is happening today?"

"I have no idea," Race shrugged his shoulder. "But I think that man thought that you are Atlas's girlfriend." There's no jealousy in his voice, but all confusion.

"What? W-What made you-"

Race stared at her and said, "remember when the man said about your lover? He'll come to save you? And now Atlas arrived and he said that Atlas was here to fetch his lover which is you-"

"I'm not, you are-" Bridgette's eyes slowly widen. Race thought that she already understand. "Oh, I remembered thay you two already broke up months ago, so it didn't counts that you two are lover."

He faced palm and chose to focus on the two man talking in front of them. It's like they are waiting for each other to grab a gun and kill each other in a second.

Race stiffed.

"Hey, Race. What happened? Did I say something wrong-"

"No, no. I'm alright, I-I just..." He stared at Atlas.

He really missed this man so much. Race didn't thought that he'll long for Atlas's attention and love and his touch. He longed for this man for a months. Even though he kept on telling that he really hate this guy and didn't want to see him again because he was broke-because Atlas chose to left. Race still want Atlas. He still craved for this man.

And thinking that the man he love, and the man who stayed with him for a years killed hundreds of people made him shivered. His mind can't focused, his mind was in chaos. Race's heart won't stopped pounding so fast because of the idea thay Atlas killed hundreds of people because of that man.
