A Second Chance

Chapter 36

Previously:

"That's doesn't even make it any better!" He argued back, "You don't even sound like you want to do it!"

"Because I don't want to." I replied back, "I never intended to."

"I was so nice, and here you are, being a cold-blooded human!" A tick mark appeared on the male's head as he grinded his teeth together, his eyes returning the glare I gave him.

Staring at him blankly again, I breathe out through my nose once. "You are really sounding more like him... Did he rub off on you?" I asked.

"Who?"

"That orange headed male." I hummed out, thinking of the said person in my mind. "Did he, Kei?"

Tsukiyomi's P.O.V

Kei snorted at me. "I don't think so." He laughed as he rubbed the back of his head, his dark glaring eyes was wiped from his face; replacing it with a that of amusement glinting in that glazed eyes of his. "Why do you say that?"

"I think he's rubbed onto you." I stated with a groan, casting my eyes to the ground as I rolled them. "One of him is enough.. Now there's another..." I sighed.

"Hahaha!~" Kei grinned happily. Seeing his face, I can guess that he really likes to be with Chuuya. Despite the close attempt of getting himself kicked out of the Port Mafia by returning me back to their enemy and getting a thorough scolding from Chuuya, which I can predict, he was still fond of the orange head.

"Well, what do I expect? You're his apprentice." I added after his laugh, my eyes glancing back at him, "Now that there are two of that orange-headed Chuuya, my life is a living hell now." Kei barked out another laugh when I said that. "You do hate all of us, don't you?" He asked, making it sound more like a statement than a question.

"I had clearly shown that I despise you all, no? Does escaping and fighting you all tell you nothing dumbass? I'm rebelling against you all. Does Mori not get that I don't want to go back?" I pulled out my right hand and rubbed my temple; an exasperated sigh leaving my lips as I could feel the vein on my left temple throbbing in frustration and annoyance.

"Righttttttt... I doubt Boss would follow with your actions." Kei dragged the first word, earning him another glare from me for his statement, "He still wants you back. I'm not sure if he wants you back into the Port Mafia as a member again or sell you off for the underground money."

"Tsk. Ugh, what do you actually want? You approached me so kindly instead of taking me away to the Port Mafia the moment you saw my figure, I guess you have something you want?" I asked, dropping my right hand down by my side, "Please hurry. I'm not in the mood."

"That, I can see." Kei said, "Like I said, I can't come and say 'hi'? I know we were tasked to take you back the moment we set our eyes, but for today, we were asked to stay low and don't make any scene. If I were to capture you, I would make a scene. And that is confirmed. Because you would fight back like a crazy mad girl."

"C-Crazy!? Damn you....!!" A tick mark appeared on my head before I realised what he just said, "...Wait... What? Why??" Confusion plastered on my face as I stared at him in disbelief. Mori asked to keep low? That Mori..??

"I'm not sure." Kei then shrugged his shoulders. "But I did overheard Chuuya talking to one of the higher-ups, saying that they are on the move, so we have to keep low just for today."

" 'They '? Who are they?" I inquired. For these people or organisation to force the boss of the Port Mafia to initiate a stop on all activities... It would mean that the threat level is big... or it is big enough to make him feel threatened. Unless there are other bigger objectives behind his actions for willing to stop everything for today.
