After giving a lame name to this awfully big hall, we three sat beside each other Leaning against the wall. soon they both started talking about car engines and analogies using technical words like crankshaft, piston, 4-cylinder, 8-cylinder, hatchbacks, and all.
Why the hell are they so obsessed bout automobiles, I don't even have any nearest info about them to add myself to their discussions. nor do I know how to drive one yet.
"What about you ? what's your thought on his Nissan z? What type of cars do you like ?". Yun asked interested
"my body has never traveled at such hefty speeds and Umm. I'm quite ignorant in these kinda subjects but I always liked the range rover defender model."
"It's not range rover, it's land rover's defender. Land rover is a brand and range rover is a model." Jojo said as if he was offended.
"Oh then it must be, I like big SUVs with enormous tires and monstrous solid bodies. As the tires are big friction is more and comfort is ultimate, off-roading is a piece of cake but maintaining such SUVs will burst your expenditure 10 times". I said
Both didn't give any reaction to my opinion and likes. Why do I care? I just want my pay for the day then I'm all set to go.
I left my stuff all exposed openly in the east. After all, I don't have any belongings except them, I was thinking
To get the hell out of here and take my beloved smelly clothes somewhere safe and I see Jojo say--
"Let's take our asses to poddlepops".
Poodlepops name is cute AF but it's a massive cafe or hub we can say but only for grownups looking for an escape trip from their worthless life.
It served all beverages with alcohol and strip club. I never once got the opportunity to move there but got this useless info from LB as he was a regular consumer.
I sensed they both were moving out and I hesitantly thought of asking for my pay, would it be awkward, or was it on monthly basis?
"Sir if you don't mind I'd like to end my day here and what about my pay ?".
"Your pay? We didn't hire you for cleaning services wait, didn't Luci tell you about your role yet in this shit?"
Yun asked me surprisingly
"Of course not, he wouldn't be asking such stupid questions to us when he arrived". Said, Jojo
Watch this shithead's tongue, jojo was landing hefty blows on my self-respect already. Am I the stupid one here?
"Didn't that bald nerdy bitch inserted some values in your ass?" I lashed out at him making a piercing face and targeted his mother based on his somatic signs".
He escalated his limbs quickly towards me and pushed me with aggravated force.
"You piss have not even worked a day here and cussing me? You are bout to get hammered to the grave." Jojo climbed over my fallen body and sputtered such kind of words I wasn't even focusing on him anymore.
Meanwhile, in my physiological state, I was wondering if I should have stayed with aunt Lisa when I got home and never made my way here trusting the outside world. Maybe I wasn't suited to work on any of such jobs and was not worthy of making a penny. Regret, guilt, disappointment a buffet of 'negative emotions' (the cliche term) engulfed me.
Why haven't I figured out their nature before? I'm happy I learned a lesson, the world is not as straightforward as it seems. They were cane Corso breeds who looked friendly only from the outside...
Yun was just standing observing, he didn't even stop this madman from attacking a weakling.
"Okay sir I'm sorry, I'm sorry was just mad cause I had an empty stomach, and my uncle kicked me out of his home I have nowhere else to go, please don't attack me I apologize for my unforgivable words."
"Better get your act straight, if you really wanna stay here and work understood ?".
"Ok sir," I said.
He moved his body away from me without uttering anything.
"Behave in a normal manner and never TalkBack to any of us," said Yun.
They were leaving for Poodlepops, first second, and third big silent steps with left hand pulled back like a slingshot when there was about an inch gap left between, I released my left forelimb with a magnificent might on JoJo's left side of the head.
His upper body wandered like a volleyball at the time of service at least I felt like that. The impact on my wrist induced me with heart throbbing pain, I was damn sure it must've dislocated from the joint.
No time to think, I grabbed his bent forehead and launched my rocketing knee.. once twice thrice, quadruple I don't know if quadruple was a term to be used here.
4 times back to back, I slowly moved so I could face To face him and kicked him as hard as I can on his abdomen to make him fall on the ground so I can spit some harsh words and sense into him, but my legs were not that flexible and I hurt myself in between the buttocks after I kicked.
Still, it was enough to make him collapse hard on the floor.
Yun swiftly stood like a barrier between him with his hands hanging up but he was careful and avoided touching me.
I grabbed his collar and gave him a light sideways push, I picked up a rusted piece of junk oddly shaped but sharp to cut pierce in the deepest core of human skin.
I bent down towards Jojo and rested it over his mouth, You scum thought you could screw me without giving me my pay? The world isn't as straightforward as it seems Mr. Jojo, I could rip out your throat right now including Yun, and take the exit like John wick.
"Ohh... N..nn...noo... It's my fault Yun said, I didn't stop and made the matter worse, we are not thugs sir. It's our fault, Jojo please apologize--
"You haven't stepped 'cause you wanted him to throb me isn't it ?" I said
"Honestly I don't get involved when some physical tussle starts... Please sir leave us.. you can take as much money as we have".
"My pride stands above all, cause I heard from an anonymous that "treat yourself like a king if you're not, act like one. I just asked about my pay you should have answered it straightforward".
I spit those words with a smirk and it's not like I'm that brawny it was my first fistfight ever and I nailed it. Though I never had any chance to fight him face to face, even if you are a weakling make every possible move for your survival and assure victory that's what Assassin's creed teaches us.
