"But Third, I still want to work for Pow Pow. I can then--"
"It's tiring, baby, believe me. I can pay the Hospital bills and I'll take care of his medicines," he quickly cut me off.
I messed up my own hair.
"Third, you don't understand me, why would I pay you for my responsibilities? Pow Pow is my responsibility, I know you just want to help, but I have to work for the two of us," I explained.
He clenched his jaw. "I can take care of you as well, baby."
My forehead furrowed. "Why? Third, you're just my leader. We're not even in a relationship so why do you have to catch me in things like this?"
He was speechless at what I said, I could also see the change in his expression.
"We're not what?" he promised with a laugh.
There was a streak of anger and annoyance in his voice so I couldn't help but swallow.
"There's no us, Third. So there's no reason for you to do this," I replied.
His jaw tightened as he leaned against the wall. He's acting like he can't comprehend what I said.
I was about to say something when he suddenly walked away from me. He slammed the door of Pow Pow's room shut.
Disgusted, I wiped my own face. "Why did you say that, Silhouette? She's angry."
I scratched the nape of my neck before being forced to enter the private room where Pow Pow was.
I simply glanced at Third who was leaning on the sofa with my eyes closed.
I sat down next to Perzeus who immediately noticed my presence.
"Is he mad at you? He came in earlier with a very bad expression on his face," he said worriedly.
I immediately winced.
"I'm angry, we're fighting, eh," I whispered softly.
He laughed and shook his head at my answer. "What are you arguing about? No worries, I won't judge you, I'm a gay."
I scratched my neck the most before answering. "She wants me to stop working, she will take care of all the expenses for Pow Pow's treatment. Then she also wants her to take care of all my needs. Perzeus, what sensible woman would allow such a set-up if They don't have a relationship with a man? Tell me. "
He chuckled mischievously.
"So you told him that you guys aren't in an intimate relationship?" smiling at my question.
I nodded slowly.
He turned to Third so I followed him with my gaze. I was almost shocked to see how badly it looked in our direction.
"You know why he's mad at you?" I looked back at Perzeus as he spoke.
"D-Because I rejected him?" bite most I answer.
"Silly." Laughing, Perzeus messed up my hair, which made Third look even worse at us. "It's because you hurt his ego."
"Huh?"
"He's into you," he added, making me even more stressed.
"I know that, it's been a long time--"
"But you told him that you guys don't have any intimate relationship, it's like, he's expecting you to believe that there's something going on between the two of you. Silhouette, I am a girl inside, but I am a guy too. He was hurt so he was angry with you, he was hurt because he thought you have a different view of the relationship that you have. Even though he hasn't told you that you are, he knows in himself that you are. And that's also what he expects of you, "its long litany.
I was even more irritated and annoyed by his explanation. Is that why Third is mad at me, because of that?
"Attention, everyone." Next I swallowed when I heard Third's cold voice.
I saw the look and seriousness of my group mates when they heard him. I could do nothing but sit down to listen to whatever he had to say.
"We have a new mission for tomorrow," he added seriously.
He still doesn't look at me even though I've noticed him a few times.
I approached him and slowly sat down next to him as he explained.
"They're planning to kill every guest who will attend the debut party for Mr. Heneroso's daughter. I've heard the other group's plan so it's better if--"
"Pst," I muttered.
He shot me a cold look so I immediately nodded.
"It would be better if we'll do the first move--"
"Notice me, Third," I said loudly.
I heard the giggles and laughter of our group mates because of my scratching.
Third stared at me sharply so I backed away immediately.
"The same as you!" I sighed angrily before running in Perzeus' direction.
It was frustrating that I leaned over this gay man to make that man even angrier.
I can feel Perzeus' disgust but I'm just trying to get on with what I'm doing.
"Hays, Perzeus, one of them doesn't want me there. Do you just want us?" I promise strongly.
Perzeus sighed. "Sure, babe!"
I can see the tension stillThird was in front of me but I still ignored him.
"You're so easy to talk to, kiss me!" I added.
Perzeus' face was almost vomiting because of what I said. But since this madam and I are close, she slowly lifted my chin to pretend to kiss me.
Our faces were not yet close when suddenly someone stood up to me.
I could feel Third's hand tighten on my arm.
"You ass hole, I'll surely kill you and kick you from my group. Stay away from my wife," he threatened angrily, really threatening Perzeus.
"Hey wait, let's--"
"She's mine, Third, you don't want her. Just Edi to me," Perzeus's husky voice replied.
My eyes just widened when Third slapped him in the face.
"She's mine from the very start, Perzeus, she'll never be yours."
I was exhausted and crispy. You really are, Silhouette, that's the work of your boisterous thinking!
