Chapter 13 - Whats the Plan? (1/2)

”So? Where?”

”I don't know.”

”What?! Oi, Sei—!”

Zaki put his hand on his forehead while the other hand was on his hip. He couldn't help but shake his head in disbelief. He couldn't believe that this man actually agreed to going out without even knowing where the hell they were heading.

”Hey, are you deliberately trying to make things hard for me? What if she wants to bring you to a huge crowded market? Do you expect me to secure such a place for you in a short period of time?” Zaki's anxiety and worry could be heard in his voice but the stone cold man just glanced at him blankly.

Sei stared at him with his same blank yet absolute gaze, making Zaki subconsciously run his fingers through his brown hair. He then let out a big sigh as he was forced to raise his white flag and just stared back at the frozen stone across him.

”I got it, I got it.” Zaki started moving towards the door still looking a bit worried, however, the moment he closed his eyes, a slow, devilish smile started to form on his face. He could be compared to being a top-notch actor who was perfectly able to switch from being a worrywart young man to the most mischievous, evil villain in existence. ”I'll go ask her for details,” he said before shutting the door.
