THE MEETING

AFTER GOING TO THE ALLEY, LM WAS SCROLLING ON HIS PHONE. HE NOTICED SOMEONE WAS FOLLOWING HIM, SO HE TOOK A RIGHT TURN INTO THE ALLEY AND WAITED TO CATCH THE FOLLOWER. WHEN THE PERSON CAME AROUND THE CORNER, LM SMARTLY MOVED HIS LEG TO TRIP THEM, BUT HE STOPPED WHEN HE SAW IT WAS YUNA. HE GRABBED HER JACKET SO SHE WOULDN'T FALL.

YUNA SAID, "I JUST WANTED TO THANK YOU 😣"

LM, WITH A POKER FACE, SAID, "NO NEED FOR THANKS. DON'T FOLLOW ME."

YUNA ASKED, "YOU DON'T SEEM TO BE A LOCAL…. IF YOU NEED ANY HELP, CONTACT ME OKAY, GIVE ME YOUR PHONE."

WHILE SAYING THIS, YUNA SNATCHED THE PHONE FROM LM’S HAND AND SAID, "OHH!!! YOU DON'T HAVE ANY CONTACTS! HERE, I SAVED MY NUMBER AND ALSO PUT IT ON A FAST DIAL. CALL ME IF YOU NEED ANYTHING…"

LM SAID, "IF YOU WANT TO HELP THAT MUCH, TELL ME, IS THERE ANY INTERNET CAFE NEAR???"

YUNA REPLIED, "OKHEE!!! SIR, LET'S GO TO AN INTERNET CAFE!"

AFTER GOING TO THE INTERNET CAFE, LM SAID, "I JUST WANTED THE ADDRESS, NOT YOU!!"

YUNA SIGHED, "AHH!! DON'T TALK LIKE AN AJEOSSI, LET'S BOOK. GIVE ME YOUR ID…"

LM SAID, "HERE'S MY ID AND MONEY. BOOK A PRIVATE SECTION FOR ME."

YUNA SAID, "HEYY-HEYY, I AM HELPING YOU, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I AM THAT TYPE.."

LM REPLIED, "I JUST WANT PRIVACY."

YUNA SAID, "OKAHYE OKAYHE.."

WHILE WALKING TO THE CABIN, LM MEMORIZED THE LOCATIONS OF ALL THE CCTVS. WITH HIS SPECIALIZED SMARTWATCH, HE CANNOT BE SEEN ON ANY CCTV FEED. THEY WENT INTO THE CABIN AND SAT ON THEIR CHAIRS.

LM SAID WITH A SIDE-EYE, "YAAAA, WON’T YOU LEAVE???"

YUNA ASKED, "WHY WOULD I…? HEY, LET'S PLAY A GAME AND ORDER SOMETHING, THE FRIED CHICKEN HERE IS THE BEST.."

LM MUTTERED, "DON'T DISTURB ME! DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO.."

YUNA HUFFED, "YOU ARE REALLY AN AJEOSSI, HMPH…"

LM THEN TURNED HIS MONITOR A BIT SO YUNA COULDN'T SEE IT. HE LOGGED INTO HIS DARK WEB ACCOUNT AND BOUGHT A SNIPER RIFLE. AFTER THAT, HE BEGAN RESEARCHING BIG COMPANIES. LM NEEDED MONEY FOR HIS MISSION TO DESTROY THE AGENCY HE USED TO WORK FOR. HE KNEW THAT NO CHILD SHOULD HAVE TO BE A KILLING MACHINE, BUT TO SURVIVE THIS MISSION, HE HAD TO BE.

WHILE HE WAS RESEARCHING, YUNA LOOKED AT HIM SUSPICIOUSLY AND SUDDENLY SAID, "AJEOSSI, WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING? PERVY PERVY!"

SHE SUDDENLY MOVED HIS MONITOR TO SEE WHAT HE WAS LOOKING AT, BUT SHE ONLY SAW INFORMATION ON BIG COMPANIES AND SAID, "OPPS, SORRY HEHE."

YUNA ASKED, "WHERE DO YOU LIVE, LM?"

LM ANSWERED, "YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW."

YUNA WENT, "HMPH, I WILL CALL YOU AJEOSSI FROM NOW ON. HEY AJEOSSI, IT'S TOO LATE, CAN YOU DROP ME HOME???"

LM SAID, "OKAY… AJUMMA."

YUNA GAVE HIM A SIDE-EYE AND THEN SNAPPED, "DO I LOOK LIKE AN AJUMMA TO YOU!!!.... LOOK AT THIS SKIN!!"

LM REPLIED, "OKAY.. OKAY, NOW LET'S GO.."

LM GOT INTO YUNA'S CAR. WHILE YUNA WAS DRIVING, LM ASKED, "WHY ARE WE GOING THIS WAY??"

YUNA LAUGHED, "OHH, I LIVE IN THAT BUILDING!"

IT TURNED OUT THEY ARE NEIGHBORS….

LM THOUGHT, I SHOULD NOT LET ANYONE KNOW WHERE I LIVE, AND DEFINITELY NOT THIS GIRL. SHE GAVE ME A HEADACHE IN 5 MINUTES. I DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF SHE KNOWS I AM HER NEIGHBOR.

AFTER DROPPING HER OFF, LM WENT TO A GARAGE TO RENT A CAR AND DROVE TO THE COORDINATES THE SNIPER SELLER HAD SENT HIM. ONCE HE ARRIVED, HE THREW THE CASH INTO THE DUSTBIN JUST AS THE SELLER HAD INSTRUCTED, AND GRABBED THE GUITAR CASE OUT OF IT.

LM DROVE AWAY AND REACHED HIS HOME. HE CHECKED THE CORRIDOR TO MAKE SURE NO ONE WAS THERE. AFTER CONFIRMING IT WAS COMPLETELY CLEAR, HE SLIPPED INTO HIS APARTMENT, OPENED THE BOX, AND ASSEMBLED THE "BARRETT MRAD." HE CHECKED THE WEAPON THOROUGHLY, DISASSEMBLED IT AGAIN, HID IT SAFELY UNDER HIS BED, AND FINALLY WENT TO SLEEP TO GET SOME REST….
