59 Hold on the time (1/2)

The news among Iven's people spread like wildfire, without even him telling it and even before he could reach the base.

Yuka came to know it from his underground sources and ran off to search for Iven like crazy. He found him strolling totally lost towards home. He didn't dare ask studying his face as he knew it was truth.

It was resembling a zombie, hollow eyes and firm expressions!

As if he's been stabbed through hard!!!

Mak and the others had connections with other small fishes in their business.

Every one was well aware of Iason's return as they really feared him. Their measures were not decent enough, or rather to be precise.....Psychotic!

They heard that the gang had a huge break out with someone who has been taken captive!

They were not but sure about it, only when Yuka and Iven returned.

Judging Iven's face and Yuka's silent shaking of head, they knew the unbelievable news without asking.

The person indulged in the break out.....is none other than...Seb!!!

There was dead silence prevailed among everyone. Nobody said a single word.

They didn't know what words could be satisfactory enough.

The atmosphere was down and dark all over....

Iven chose to isolate himself from everyone.

No one went against.

They knew what Seb meant to him, and what he going through right then!

He excused himself by telling that he's been plotting a plan to find Seb, but it was a complete lie to them and himself!

In fact, he has no start of a idea what even to do, where to start from.....his mind, completely lost and blank!!!

He just wanted to spend the solitary time by himself, suffering the sorrow which no one can undergo except him!

In the other room, Yuka sat totally depressed and out of his wits.

He found no usable clue to catch up since Iason's been infamous for a undercover base of his gang.

Mak just punch walls to release his anger.

Hamish just sighed and shook his head slowly whereas Kenny still tried and made certain calls for heads up regarding Seb's whereabouts.

Yuka was growing impatient that Iven wasn't showing himself in such a situation,”Where the hell is Noah?”, he asked noticing his absence.

No one cared to reply.

”He's gone out a while ago, He'll be back soon”, Kenny said carelessly.

”Call him back now, it's dangerous out there now!”, Yuka ordered.

Kenny nodded once and got busy again.

The door of the common room opened slowly.

It was Iven who entered, with a dull and pale face.

Everybody looked up to him solemnly.

He studied the look of hope in each of their eyes. He's their leader, they indeed look up to him.

But.....he's.....not worth it.

He couldn't even protect well his woman, whom he cherished the most.

”I....”, he began to speak the decision he spend a hard time taking,”....am disbanding the base.....”, his voice least confident.

Nobody reacted. There was no gasps or protests. None of them even had a change in facial expression.

They just kept looking at Iven with frozen faces.

”I'm not capable enough to carry this responsibility anymore....”, he continued looking down,”....so I can't endanger any one anymore. You better find your way.....”

Before he could even complete, a sudden hand crashed through his cheeks without holding back, as hard as possible!!!

It was so rough which broke every one free of their dazes and made Iven land on his back!

Every one thought it was Mak, only he can be this rush.....but it wasn't.....

Yuka was standing, looking at Iven fuming all over!

His eyes burning.

Iven gaping at him, trying to get a hold of his senses.

Was this the always calm Yuka?

What made him turn furious to the extent leading him to hit even Iven, the one to whom he's most loyal to?

Iven really felt Yuka strength at that time, which reminded him how he had picked him up from being a street thug! His cheek was red already.

Yuka looked at him with wild eyes and spoke,”You dare say that again!!!”

Saying that, he marched at him like a madman and held him up by clutching at Iven's collars.

Iven didn't resist or anything. He felt shame spread all over him....

Yuka shook him all over and made him face his eyes.

”Look at me!”, he yelled,”look at all of us! Who do you think we are? Orphans? Street thugs? Drug addicts? Illegal fighters? Are we? No, we are not!!!” Yuka pointed at every one's past, to what they were

before Iven found them. Each one of them did something beyond society.

It was Iven who gave them a life and hope. He gave them what is precisely called.....a family!

And if your benefactor throws you away, It's something no one can imagine of.

”So you want to make us return back once from where you had saved us???”, Yuka beamed,”You think we will be decent enough to be able to lead such a life? We won't return to what we wee before?”

Yuka threw him back with a push and took weak steps back himself.

”What? You are just a coward Iven!”, he cursed,”You are just not brave enough to face this. And this is all you can up with??? Let go since you couldn't protect one person?”.

Iven still gazed down, taking all the piercing truth.

”Let me tell you one thing”, he clenched his teeth,”Even if you point a gun at me telling me to leave, I'm never going to leave you! Nor any one of us will!!!”.

Every one's face was growing firmer with the agreement of topic.

”And you think you can save Seb if you do this?”, he dropped down to her,”You will lead her to the consequence same as Judy!!!”
