All around him, Jamal could hear the cheers of the people who had been his allies during the last few days, battle after battle they had been putting their lives on the line for the sake of those who were not capable of protecting themselves. Every one of them probably lost a friend or someone dear during those wars and even their memories had been lost for the majority of them, though they have slowly started to recover. Jamal understood that euphoria, they couldn't contain themselves they had the conviction then that their sacrifices were not a waste.Jamal looked up at the sky, whose brightness, was one of the biggest pieces of proof that showed that indeed they had survived another night.The dawn, which was symbolizing their victory."Let me help you put her in the car," Volga proposed to Jamal while he was carrying the exhausted Natasha."Thank you," he said as he was handing her the girl in his arms."Don't say it," Volga replied while she was laying Natasha on the back seat of
What was convenient was that Natasha's home was near the place of the gathering which meant that they didn't need cars to go there which, anyway, would have not been possible since the cars couldn't move due to the huge crowd present there. They just had to walk for a few minutes and they soon arrived in front of the house.Lina didn't even reach the door yet it got opened from inside. Matteo passed his head outside and took his time to stare at all the faces of each of the people before him before he opened wide the door and stepped aside to let them pass. He made an effort to keep an indescribable expression but Jamal could, without an effort, tell that at that moment he was feeling so much relieved.Carla was the first one to enter followed by Nelson, Sania, Don, Volga, and last Jamal and Lina, who was clinging to his arm and didn't want to let him go.Lina indicated to Carla the direction of Natasha's room and guided the rest of the group to the living room, she served each of the
The sun rays came in through the window. Jamal removed slowly his sheet and went out of his bed, " Ha, here we go again " sighed Jamal with a little sad smile on his face. He went to the bathroom took a shower, prepared himself for the long day which was waiting for him, took his bag, and left his place.He lived all alone in a little apartment even though it was easier for him to get a bigger house, " a little place like this one is much enough for me, " he said the day he chose the apartment. He preferred tight places as they were easy for him to handle, and he has been like that ever since the deaths of his parents, which had happened before he was even 10, and even more after his older sister had disappeared 2 years ago.He left his home, went down the stairs, and at the moment he stepped out on the street a little boy ran toward him in hurry and started to shout and cry " Jamal! Jamal! Help me Jamal ... Karen... you have to help ... Karen is in danger... please "." Calm down fir
It was about 2 p.m when all the youngsters finished their training and prepared to leave the hall. Jamal was arranging his stuff when Natasha approached him, her voice was soft when she said, " I wanted to apologize for earlier. It was not my intention to put them in danger, you know? "." Yes I know it, and I'm also sorry for reacting so emotively... I didn't mean to lash out at you". Jamal scratched the back of his head, " I know that you all just want to help quickly rebuild the city but you should not rush to the point you are endangering yourselves "." We are just upset that we are all forced to only half of our lives, " Natasha said while taking a sad look at her comrades while they were preparing to leave.After hearing that, Jamal couldn't help but bow his head, feeling a bit sad. Despite knowing that it was nothing his fault, he couldn't help but feel sorrowful when he looked at the faces of all these poor kids as he would have wanted to do more for them.Even if it happened
Lina's home was a quite normal place nearby the church and also the city hall, unlike her boyfriend she was not among those who were forced to change their houses, due to the fact that she was already living in that part of the city. Although she was proposed many times a better house than hers when Jamal was removing people because of the increase in criminality, she gently refused and said that she was satisfied with her actually living place and she was happy because it was quite close to her workplace.Indeed Lina was actually the official mayor of Stainfall city. When people wanted to rebuild the city after the catastrophe she humbly accepted to take the mayor's seat after the demise of the previous one. Despite not being the real chief of the city like Jamal, her job was not less crucial and exhaustive.After the removal of all the population, she worked hard for many months to permit them the re-opening of most of their stores and offices, and she also managed to find and conv
" Yeah, I'm coming... just give me a few minutes " Natasha shouted while someone was knocking on the door of her house. At that time, she was naked with only her underwear on her, just as usual when she is alone in her home, so she quickly took a big T-shirt which was laying on a chair in her room and came out of her room. She wore it on her way when she was going down the stairs and then came to open the door to the mysterious visitor." Hi, Natasha! " Jamal said when she finally opened the door.Suddenly, she felt very embarrassed to the point that even her cheeks turned a little bit red. She thought she would have wanted her first reflex to be to run away upstairs and hide in her bed, because she thought that she was not correctly dressed, especially to see him, just only a T-shirt which stopped just above her knees. " No, it can't be true, why would he have to come here only the day I'm dressed like this? " Natasha thought while clenching her teeth, " I look totally ridiculous ".
The dawn was just coming when Jamal woke up on the bed with Lina laying gracefully and naked beside him. He tried to move out from there without disturbing her sleep, with very slow moves, trying to be as stealthy as possible but in the end, she had woken up too before he left the bed, anyway. " It's already time for you to go? You're very mean, you know? " she sighed while stretching out, " so you are the kind of guy who, after having sex, sneaks out and leave the woman there alone with only her shame and sorrow as her company? " she was faking like if she was hurt, " so for you, I'm just a toy you can use to play with and throw it away once you get finally bored? " Jamal rolled his eyes and just ignored her before he headed to the bathroom. Lina waited a few moments before she followed him. " You're very a boring man you know? " she said a bit disappointed. Jamal turned his head to get a brief look at her. " You wanted me to come at you while rushing, pretend to seek your forgive
They were rolling as fast as they could when they reached the core of the city. As each of them knew already their targets they separated without saying a single word to each other. Even though it was the first time she went on patrol to protect her city, and even though she should normally feel stressed or restless as she was living the moment she has been waiting for so long, Natasha was calm, lucid, and was thinking quietly about her coming fight. It was not like that she was not excited - of course, she was. However, during her special training with Jamal, she learn how to control her newly gained powers, such as her super strength and suppress her aggressivity, he emphasized more the importance of staying calm in whatever situation she may be confronted with. He showed her how to ignore, during a face-to-face fight, the opponents' speech when they wanted to provoke her, how to analyze carefully all her options when she's in a presumably desperate situation, and one of the most im
