“Teacher, it’s almost time. The students will come any moment,” Russell tried to give Tom coconut water and a painkiller. “You can’t stay drunk like this.”“Tell me, how many weasels did you meet in your life?” Tom asked, his eyes half-closed. He was also burping every now and then. Because he didn’t sleep much, whatever he had eaten the other night didn’t digest well, so his burps smelled really bad. “Answer me. How many weasels did you meet?”“Unfortunately, I didn’t meet any.”“That’s odd…because the world is full of weasels,” Tom said and sipped on the coconut water. “They do nothing but, burp, deceive those around them. Whether it’s your average shop owner that tries to make extra profit with every good he sells without caring for his customers, or the middle men that rip and leech off of the businesses of the poor, or the politicians that are masters at saying good things on TV while doing bad things behind people’s backs… they’re everywhere. The weasels… you can’t escape from t

Max survived.Tom and Russell carefully took him back home after Russell paid for the expenses.Though Russell insisted that the dog be kept in the hospital for a couple of days, Tom was against it. He was afraid of all the bad things that happened to his wife at the hospitals, and so he didn’t want his dog to be in a hospital for long, either.After coming home, Russell asked Tom, “Why didn’t you take the tablets and injections the doctor gave? Don’t you want Max to be healed fast?”“I can heal Max faster on my own,” Tom said and turned on a certain type of music.“This…” Russell was surprised because this was the same music Tom had played after Rachel died. “Why are you playing a tune? What good will it do?”“Music vibrates with the body,” Tom said. “Depending on the frequencies, you can heal almost any type of disease or illness. You can also harm with wrong frequencies. For instance, if you tune the music to 432hz, it heals us on all levels. But 440hz is bad for us.”Russell pause

“What are you talking about?” Marlon quickly denied. “I never proposed to you. I don’t even know you.”“Hmph, just because you deny it, it doesn’t become the truth!” Irene snorted at him. She poured coffee and then sat down next to Jessica. “Men really are men. They think of women as nothing but tools that can be used and thrown away.”“M-Miss, I think you’re mistaken about me,” Marlon couldn’t sit straight. “You’re definitely good-looking, but I really don’t know you.” He didn’t want Jessica’s perspective on him to be affected by this stranger.“It seems at least your eyes are still working since you can see that I’m beautiful,” Irene sipped on the coffee before the other could. “However, that doesn’t erase the bad things you’ve done to me.”“B-Bad things? Now, you’re pushing it,” Marlon’s voice contained a bit of anger and frustration.“Are you saying you’ve done not a single bad thing in your life?” Irene asked. “Not even when you were drunk? Do you expect me to believe that?”Marl

Ivan’s death was a big surprise to Roddick because Ivan was the illegitimate son of someone who ran the drug cartel. Roddick told this man, Zhero, that his son died when he was gathering information on a guy named Russell.Zhero didn’t care about his son’s death as much as he wanted to punish the man that resulted in his son’s death, so he sent out a gang to deal with Russell.These gangsters came to Tom’s house early in the morning. Even though Max saw these gangsters entering the house, there was nothing he could do because he was still recovering and wasn’t in a position to attack the intruders.The seven gangsters entered the house when Russell was cooking an omelet. Russell saw them and didn’t say anything. He just focused on cooking.“Are we invisible to you?” one of the gangsters rushed forth and tried to grab Russell’s face. Russell moved away and grabbed the man’s face and smashed it on the pan, making him scream in horror. The other six gangsters together rushed forth.Even

After sending the seven gangsters away, Russell told Tom who they exactly were, leaving Tom shocked. He also warned Tom to be careful during the night as they might come back in the night.Tom couldn’t stay put after hearing that, so he took money from Russell and then went out to buy a gun from a friend who owned a gun store.Russell was alone in the house, not counting Max who was still resting because of the injury.Russell bought a new laptop and other necessary equipment so he could earn money from Tom’s house itself.“I wanted to leave this place, but now that Simon is out, I’m afraid he’ll come after Teacher Tom, so I’m gonna have to deal with Simon and any other trouble that might knock on Tom’s door.”Just then, Jessica entered through the gate.Russell went out to meet her.Before he could say anything, she apologized. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t find anything about Amelie.” Even though she used her network and her brother, she couldn’t find anything.“It’s okay. Don’t blame your
