บท 127: Take them down

"How about we take them down, make sure they will never lay their hands on you anymore."

Noah jolted and distanced himself from me. He stared at me with confusion, as if he had just heard something so ridiculous. 

I gave him a thin smile. I knew it must've been shocking for him to hear someone say stuff about 'taking them down so easily. 

"W—What do you mean, Em?" Noah asked 

I shrugged lightly and sat on a chair. I crossed my legs and replied, "Isn't it quite obvious? You don't want to be a sandbag forever, right?"

Noah shook his head slowly. 

"Now tell me what you'll do in order for them to stop?"

Noah was stunned and stared at me. He opened his lips but didn't seem to be able to get an answer, and in the end, he just sighed and lowered his head weakly.
