The sun shone brightly despite the covers are drawn. I throw back the blankets and head straight to the bathroom.

I was staring at myself in the mirror, my eyes were bloodshot and my outfit was slightly crumpled from tossing and turning around in the bed.

I brushed my hair and wash my face, throwing on a new pair of shirt and jeans, I unlocked the door and head to the lobby.

The lobby was an eery silence as I slipped through. I put a coin inside the vending machine and chose a packet of chocolate chips.

"Miss, do you want to stay for one more night?" The woman from yesterday asked me, I wonder when did she appeared?

"Yes, please." I said grabbing my purse and placing the bills on the counter.

"Where is Krystal?" Boss asked frustrated, it was almost Krystal's shift and she haven't shown up yet. She always arrived ten minutes earlier to polish the glasses and rearranged the bottles in place.

"I'll try calling her." I said, even though I think she wouldn't pick up. Something had happen to her and I'm pretty sure the problem is circulating around her father.

The door swing open even though we haven't opened up yet, a man around his forties stared at us angrily.

"I'm sorry sir, Le Renard Noir haven't start serving yet." Hiro said calmly although we all knew this wasn't the problem.

"Where's Krystal? I need to know where is she!" The man roared and grabbed Kenshi by the collar.

The man pulled out the gun and placed it on Kenshi forehead. My eyes widened, before any of us could react, the gun was shoved away. A punch directly hit the man's cheek, sending him off balance.

We were frozen as Krystal kept on throwing punches at the man. She sent a last punch to his throat, knocking him out quickly.

"Hey, sorry I'm late." Krystal apologize while grabbing the gun. She tossed it over to me, I reached out and caught it successfully.

She kicked the man in the side earning a groan from him. She grabbed him up easily even though he weight almost two thousand pounds. In the corner of my eye, I saw her shoving him inside a taxi.

"Wow, what just happened?" Kenshi whispered.

"I have no idea." Takuto murmured watching Krystal.

"Do you know who the man is?" Boss asked and all of us shrugged. I have a slight conclusion that was his father, they have the same hair color though.

We stopped whispering when Krystal returned. "Shall we get started? We still have a few minutes before we open up." I nodded but I couldn't stop looking at her bloody knuckles.

"Here, you can use this on your knuckles." I said handing her some plasters.

"Thank you." She said while polishing the glasses.

"Mission tomorrow, you ready?" I said with a grin.

"When am I not?" She chuckled.
