After reaching Sorties building, Melanie carefully opened the door so that it won't creak. But as soon as she made her way to the stairs, She heard Duncan's voice.

"Melanie?". She turned to him. "Mr. Duncan, you're awake?". "When was the last time you checked the time?".

"Sorry Mr. Duncan I was at a party_", "Party?? Are you mad?". He scolded. Melanie was startled by his high pitch. "Mr. Duncan I'm sorry but_", "You were at a party and you didn't even bother to inform anyone. Do you know how your father will react if he finds out that you went to a party without asking him?". Duncan asked angrily.

"Mr. Duncan no one cares where I am. Not even my dad. I'm nothing to anyone". Melanie said almost in a whisper. "Melanie I do care. I'm like your brother. I am always concern where you are, why you are crying or why you are not eating your dinner". Duncan said with soft eyes.

Melanie looked down. She felt guilty. "Next time please atleast inform me where you at". Said Duncan. Melanie nodded at him. Suddenly Daisy entered the corridor.

"Daisy_", Duncan walked to Daisy. "You arrived at the right time, please ask her to inform us everything she is being up to".

"What should I tell her Duncan? She's a grown up. She should know whats good for her". Daisy said and left. Duncan passed a smile to Melanie before walking away.

Melanie sighed and went upstairs in her room.

Noah went to his apartment, opened his fridge and took out a beer can. He left the Menecions building a long time ago. He did not wanted to be a part of the gang so he managed to get a job and bought an apartment of his own. But still he was part of the gang.

He switched on the tv and started going through his phone. There were so many missed calls from his grandfather. He called him back.

"Grandpa? what is it?". He asked as soon as Mr. Elijah recieved the call. "Greetings, Noah come by our building whenever you get time". Elijah said.

"Umm.. sure grandpa but what is it?". Asked Noah taking another sip of his beer. " Nothing special, it's just related to work". They hung up the phone. Noah sighed. "He'll ask me to do crappy work that's why he's calling me". Noah said to himself.

"In The Morning"

There were few knocks that were echoed in the building of Menecions because the building was silent. Collin opened the door and greeted Noah.

"Man.. can't you knock only once?". Collin said and started laughing. They both did their special handshake. "Sorry, I can't help it. Where's everyone?". Noah asked getting inside and sitting on the nearby couch.

"Are you here to see the leader?". Collin asked as he leaned against the same couch where Noah was sitting. "Yes". "He is in his room". Collin replied and Noah stood up to go in his grandfather's room. "Be careful, don't say anything wrong.. you remember when you disobeyed him? He got so angry". Collin called from behind. Noah sighed as he knocked Mr. Elijah's room.

"Come in". the voice called from inside. Noah entered the room and sat infront of his desk. "You called me grandpa?".

Mr. Elijah glanced at Noah as he continued writing something in his register. "Ah Noah! Good to see you here, I have some important task for you".

"Grandpa I already told you I don't want_" , Mr. Elijah interupted him. "Nah I know! Its just a package that I want you to deliver. It has to be dropped at the Sorties building. And don't reveal your identity". Mr. Elijah said as he fixed the position of his glasses.
