CHAPTER 05
Gun
Ugh, this is such a dumb game!
Gun was currently laying on the couch while playing a moba game on his phone, something he does when he's bored.
Gun
I'll never play supporter again, this is frustrating...
He closed his phone and stared at the wall, thinking of what to do next.
Gun
Life sure is surprising, huh...
Gun stretched his arms and stood in front of the big mirror in the living room. He felt like a 16-year-old again, and it wasn't a good feeling like usual. He would have loved feeling like a teenager again at any other place, truly.
Gun
I promised myself to not go outside but honestly..
Gun
I'm so bored, might as well get some snacks.
After making the decision to go outside, Gun unpacked some of his clothes from his luggage and picked some things out to wear. Tank-Top, Jeans. A little bit make-up to look fresh, nothing crazy. He didn't want to stand out too much.
After taking his mirror selfie, Gun felt satisfied enough and went out.
Inhaling a deep breathe of the wind that came his way, he looked up at the sun for a short moment while closing his eyes.
Gun
Hopefully I won't meet anyone from the past today...
He shook his head and went on his way to the small grocery store in the town center. He remembers that place being usually very popular when he was young!
Reaching the town center, it was just as he expected. Though not as eventful as it used to be, it was still filled with people, mostly younger kids and teens.
Gun
Nothing really changes, huh?
He went inside the store and quickly grabbed a few things. Snacks, drinks and some necessary beauty products he forgot to bring. His flawless and smooth skin needs to be looked after, especially in this heat!
He grabbed ice cream as well to cool himself before paying and leaving the store.
Gun
I'm glad that nobody seems to notice me, thank God!
Gun looked around and saw a small child next to the fountain in the center. He thought about just walking away but since nobody else checked on him...
The small child on the ground looked up and stopped crying instantly.
Gun
So? Why are you crying?
Aciel looked down and Gun followed with eyes. He had dropped his Ice cream.
Gun
That's why you're crying?
Gun
Aww..don't be sad. Here take this.
Gun grabbed an ice cream from his grocery bag and gave it to Aciel.
Aciel stood up from the ground, cleaned his knees quickly before taking the ice cream. A smile automatically appearing on his face.
Gun
Where are your parents?
Gun
Is nobody with you here?
Gun
Should I bring you to your father?
Gun
But wait, maybe I shouldn't...don't trust strangers, ok?!
Aciel giggles and Gun joins him.
Aciel
I'm not alone, Uncle Tay is with me!
That name sounded awfully familiar..
