||'Route for My love'||

'PART 2'

GT-4 is one of the best places I've ever been to. It's simple. It's shiny. It's awesome! Suddenly two hands creeped up my back, and warmth seeped through me. "Hey.. Tulip. Missed me?" I turned around, giving a hearty smile, "how can I not miss you, rose?"

Rose, my bff, my all-secret holder. I love her a lot. She is a professional ring fighter. And maybe my protector. Last time, a 40-year-old man tried to touch me in the train and she bashed that man's nose, the wife was too shrilly, but her words made her even shut up. I'm very proud to have her. "Today's my fight." She said in her deep voice, sometimes i wonder if she's even a feminine, i mean we both. 

Right, she's more capable.

"So you want me to cheer you?" I asked, picking out my glasses and wearing them. Now i can see her more clearly. "Yep tulip-baby, you know you're my lucky charm." She rolled her tongue, putting a hand around my shoulder and taking me to Kfeser.

Kfeser is the ring-fight place which is underground. The people want some bloody fighters, and my rose is one of them. the equality exists in shards, it doesn't matter what gender you are. I don't like Kfeser very much, not because i don't love the fights, they're life but The people there.. They feel like some talent had given them a stature. 

Ugly assholes.

We reached there, and i sat at the front table. The ring was made clean, when i saw Karl. "Hey, Andrea. It's the doubles today." I raised my eyebrow, "Who are you and Rose fighting to?" Karl pointed at another direction, "These two."

My eyes instantly went to the direction he pointed to. A guy? No, a man. He had wore a black vest and black shorts. Tanned skin, muscular as hell, he's too big. tension creeped inside me, He looks dangerous. I looked at Karl and asked, "Hey Karl, is he also a ring fighter?" Karl shook his head, "No, he's a special guest. must be some other party." Then my eyes went on another one, which was a female. green hairs, emo, athletic build. She reminds me of spinach.

Or broccoli? Broccoli's better. I hate them after all.

The referee shouted, it's about damn time. I saw rose then, in her sexy outfit as all. Beside her was Karl, while on the other hand was that man and the broccoli. The four of them climbed inside, positioning. Then after a couple of minutes, the whistle rang.

It instantly started, that man strikes on Karl and Rose strikes on broccoli. I saw Karl was being beaten badly, he was getting no chance for either defense or attack. Tension creeped up again, I don't know why but my hairs are running up. On the other side, Rose is kicking that Girl instant. I should be happy that rose is beating someone, I should cheer. But then, I realized what I am feeling. 

The half-time flew like minutes and both Karl and the green haired were badly battered. I suddenly realized i was scared about this. This guy.. Rose is a professional, no doubt, but the aura i can see emitting from this guy, for the first time I'm afraid, Rose would lose and would be injured. They took Karl away, his nose is bleeding and his cheeks are swollen. Still, i continue to keep a bravado facade, i can't let my bff see her bff losing faith already. I shouted,

"CMON, ROSIE, YOU CAN DO THIS!" And that guy turned to look at me, grey eyes that pierced me in a second of contact. I showed him a middle finger to which he replied in a grunt. 

Like maybe saying, 'I'll show you the taste of that middle finger'.

The whistle rang, and my heart reached the throat. the fight wasn't that quick like he did with Karl, maybe respecting the fact she's a female and rose always takes slow on people opposing her. But then, the actual fuck started. My nails dug inside the couch; Rose is getting more hits from that guy than she actually has. For a moment, I thought I saw a hint of vulnerability but then that fumed her, and she gave a tight punch to his jawline. I almost raised my expectations, when a sharp punch to her chest made her fall down, he grasped her hair and begin to punch her. It's violation of rule. My hands trembled; Shock replaced by anger. 

It took three people to separate him from her. I quickly rushed to Rose. I've never seen her so beaten before. it reminded me of her beginning days. i continue to feed her some water, when a deep voice crashed on my ear, "It's your fault your friend is beaten so bad. shouldn't have showed me the middle finger." 

My eyes widened, and a dark expression overshadowed, i stood up and turned, my finger instinctively reached till' his face, "You did a fucking violation! Can't even handle a middle finger when you beat your anger down on someone whose here for a fight!" I snarled. He chuckled, and grabbed my finger, "It'll take me half than a second to snap this cute little finger of yours." I raised my eyebrow and spoke, "well, show everyone here then how a Mr. coward can't even take up a finger of negotiation." His expression darkened. 

I hitted a nerve.

He grasped my collar harshly and kneeled down, "Do you even know who i am?" I looked directly back, "Do YOU know who i am?" His expression didn't falter, "Maybe a spoiled brat who can't happen to digest a pill of shame." I glared at him, "Then maybe you're a fucking daddy-ass who plays out in clubs and tries to be that dangerous aura companion but in reality you're nothing but a shitty dickhead who does nothing but pulls his anger on other people!"

He was about to hit me and i was ready to defend but he grasped my jaw harshly, "you're doing a mistake taking enemity from me." he growled and his hand went inside my left pocket, and pulled out the card.

the card of my company.

He smiled, which was almost a salt on my wounds, "CEO..? Hm..? Very acknowledging.." He harshly leave my jaw and rumbled, "get your friend treated.. And don't mess with me again." He began to go when just a few steps I called him, "Hey asshole!" He looked behind and I showed him middle finger again.

A challenge and a simple sentence that I'M. NOT. SCARED.
