It's Friday, I compelled Jake to stay at my house because it's late at night. But he doesn't like to stay because his pursuers are after him, so he doesn't want to put me in danger.

But I didn't leave him just like that and he knows I am stubborn. So, he accepted because he didn't have any choice.

I asked him to sleep on the bed, but he said he has some works. Well, I can't force him in everything so I didn't oppose.

He is working on the sofa with his laptop and I went to sleep in my room. I fell asleep after some time.

"MC!" I heard someone's voice while I am sleeping. "MC, wake up!" I opened my eyes to see Jake.

"What's wrong, Jake?" I asked him with my sleepy voice. "My pursuers are after me!" He said. "What?!" I asked in Shock and now I am awake.

"I said I won't stay here! Look now what happened!" He whisper shouted with a hint of anger in his voice. "Jake..." I said calmly to make him calm.

"We don't have time, MC. They will be here at any time! Go and pack some food and your clothes, we are Leaving. NOW!" He said.

I understood the situation and went down quickly to open the fridge. I saw two boxes of pretzels made by Cleo.

I took them and 2 bottles of raw milk also I took some canned coke and packed it in my backpack. I took 3 sets of clothes and I don't have time to change my dress so, now I am in my short trousers and my black hoodie which reached the bottom of my trousers and its hand covered my palm.

My fingers are only visible. I was done packing while Jake is packing his stuff.

After 5 mins of arrangement, we came to my room. "We are gonna jump through the window," Jake said. "What?! We are on the first floor!" I said shocked.

"We don't have any option! I will jump first and you jump next I will catch you." He said. And he jumped down from the first floor. "Jump!" He whispered from down.

I was scared to jump. "Jake, I am scared," I said him from my room window looking down at him. "MC, Jump!" He whisper shouted again.

Looks like I am making him angry. But I believed him and jumped and he caught me without falling.

But I accidentally broke a flower pot. We heard footsteps came near us "Jake." I said panicked. "Let's go!'' he said and we started to walk fast on the road. After few minutes we are now near Bar Aurora.

The place is noisy. Jake turned to check whether someone is following us. I turned too.

I saw two weird persons. I am sure they are following us. Jake too noticed them. We went to the crowd who is coming out of the Aurora.

Jake pinned me on a wall. I gasped at the sudden action. He saw the two persons are searching for us and coming this way.

He turned his face towards me and kissed me suddenly. I was shocked. Since his hood is long his hood hid my face.

After some time he broke the kiss and checked whether his pursuers are still there, While I stood there stunned. "Follow me." He said coldly and Started walking.

"Is it mean, I should forget the kiss just now?" I mumbled to myself and started following him.

Another 5 mins later, we halted in a dark place where no one is there and Jake took his laptop out and started doing some things. "Are we safe now?" I asked him.

"No, we are not. They are still after us." He said Coldly again. I sighed. I can say he is still mad at me by his behaviour towards me.

"Do you believe me?" He asked me without making eye contact with me. "Yes, Jake," I replied him. "Never make eye contact with them." He said.

I hummed in response But I don't know whom he is mentioning. He held my left hand and walked in front of me and we went through a narrow alley only to see a rushing and noisy street full of males.

That's when I realised it's an ILLEGAL GAMBLING PLACE.

"Remember what I said?" Jake asked. I hummed again in response. He still holding my hand and walking in front of me.

I looked at the ground while I walking through the street to avoid eye contact. I felt many men's eyes on me, it makes me uncomfortable and insecure.

That's when Jake squeezed my hand to remind me that he is with me. I felt better and we passed the street and went through another narrow alley.

We went through the Duskwood forest and halted in a place. Jake opened a secret bunker in the ground. "Go inside" he insisted.

I went down by iron ladder and looked around to only see a desk, chair, and an old sofa. Well, there is also a yellow bulb.

Jake came down after me and took his laptop and tapped some keys. "We are safe now." He said. Well, he still sounds cold.

"Finally, we are safe." I sighed. "Yes we are safe but that doesn't mean I am not mad at you!" He said angrily.

"Do you know, how dangerous it is for you?" He shouted. "Look what happened now because of your stubbornness, MC! Once you become a 'Wanted person' by the government, you can never live the normal life!" He shouted angrily at me.

"I am willing to do anything to be with you," I said calmly. His eyes softened "MC..." He said softly.

He hugged me "MC, I want you to live happily," he said. "My happiness is when I am with YOU, Jake," I said, while hugging him back.
