Yuyi got up, hearing him coming back as well as seeing him and looking in front of him said, “Sorry, I have nothing to say! His tricks surpassed me.”Satoru nodded and, seeing Yuyi said, “Sometimes it happens. I’m not one hundred percent, but I think between the two of us, we can eliminate this clown.”The man with the smiling bat said, “Look at the state you’re in! How sad when the big ones fall. Nobody ever told me that I would have to fight with one of the parents, but hey, all the prize without any of the effort, if you want to give away money, by my voucher.”The air crackled with energy as Satoru and Yuyi faced each other. Both fighters were skilled in their own right, and the tension between them was palpable.Satoru was the first to strike, launching a flurry of punches and kicks at Yuyi. But Yuyi was quick to respond, dodging and weaving around Satoru's attacks with ease.As the fight continued, Yuyi began to take the offensive, landing several blows on Satoru's body.But Sat
As the game progressed, the boy grew increasingly confident with his batting skills and decided to test them out in each of the first three attacks.With each swing, he felt a rush of adrenaline as the bat connected with the ball and sent it soaring through the air.However, his excitement was short-lived when Satoru, who had been watching from the sidelines, stepped onto the field and raised his sword with an intimidating presence.The boy's heart raced as he realized the danger he was in, but he didn't have time to react before Satoru's swift strike sent the bat flying out of his hands and spinning through the air.Panic set in as the boy stumbled backwards, desperately trying to catch the bat before it hit the ground and shattered into a million pieces.Satoru stood up and said, “Finish it, Yuyi!”Joseph, feeling a sense of discomfort, slowly and deliberately turned his face away from his current view and shifted his gaze towards the opposite direction, where he noticed Yuyi rapidl
His blood dripped from his hands, and his breathing hurt. The two broken ribs hurt his torso badly as he advanced. “Just one more hit!” He said through gritted teeth. But, the fight didn’t stop as he kept hitting until his eyes opened suddenly in the darkness of his room. It was just a dream… Barrett feared that he was still in his dream as he looked at his hands. Barrett’s fingers moved as he smiled nervously. He shook his head to forget the nightmare. He looked at his sleeping wife and tried to reach out to her. As though by reaction, the woman moved away from his caress as she slept. Seeing her like this made Barrett remember his dream again. How many people had he managed to hurt with his hands? But I should be a different man... Barrett thought as he let out a nervous smile. Barrett went to his closet and took off his shirt. He looked at himself in the mirror. His face was weary from lack of sleep. He looked at his shirtless chest. He still was still reaped and scarr
It is a significant amount of money to have $500,000. That was what his brother had said to him about the wager when he had finally made it out of that dark place. If he had $500,000, he could have retired, but his daughter needed his help. Barrett’s fingers nearly damaged the phone. Before speaking again, he took deep breaths to calm down. “What do you mean my wife took it all?” “She opened the safe and took the cash. She emptied accounts. She said she needed to make a deal, and everything would be okay, and you know everything!” Rose worriedly replied. Barrett’s wrath made him tremble. He showed great restraint to resist lashing out. He tightened his teeth and focused. He shook his head to get rid of bad thoughts. “Don’t worry. I’ll talk to Claudia to see what happened,” He said, breathing hard. After the conversation, Barrett headed to the cafeteria. He expected to see Claudia and her daughter, but they weren’t there. Barrett called Claudia, but she didn’t answer. He went ou
Barrett and Rose walked from the company. Rose could not help but gaze at him in surprise. The incident made his face black. Rose tried to break the silence, but her comments might sound pointless because of her old boss’s dilemma. “Boss, do you really think this is the best option?” Rose asked. “It’s not like I have many other options, Rose,” he said with a forced smile. “Only then could treatment begin. I sold what remained. Without money, the company couldn’t survive. Therefore selling the trucks and building was the best option.” With Barrett’s burden on his shoulders, she couldn’t imagine what decisions he would make. Perhaps, selling the company was the wisest choice. “All that was in your wife’s name. Is it really okay to sell all that?” Rose asked, frowning. Barrett paused before he looked at the building behind them. “They’re his daughters too... so yeah, it’s fine,” Barrett said. He took a deep breath and looked at Rose with a smile, “Relax. I negotiated with the buyer
Barrett was bloodied because of the beating that the security guards had given him. So he went home to change before returning to the hospital. Barrett observed some trash in front of his house. He grimaced and approached. “F*ck!” He cursed when he realized that those were his clothes! Barrett ran towards the house to check for any more stuff damaged, but his key could not open the door! Barrett also found another envelope, addressed to him, hanging on the door. “What now?” The owner of the house sold it, and you can’t access it! “Damn it!” He tiredly sat on the floor. Barrett still could not believe what was happening. But he knew he could not stay there. He sighed and stood up to get his clothing. Barrett grabbed some before heading to the park. It was the usual place where homeless people stayed for the night. Barrett washed his face and changed his shirt, and then went to the hospital. He was feeling so heavy and gloomy at that moment. All options were closing on him.
Barrett knew where his brother wanted to talk decently. Bobby did not have the hobby of reading. For some reason, however, he liked collecting books. Because of that, Bobby has a small library in his house.It was in that place that Bobby liked to talk serious stuff.He went into the library and sat on the nearest couch. It did not take long for the woman and Bobby to arrive.The woman served Barrett some tea, to which he drank casually. He glanced at Bobby and saw him leaning at the door with arms crossed over his chest.Bobby was looking at Barrett with displeasure, but not so bad as earlier. After all, Bobby would never do anything that might cause his collection to be destroyed.Who knows how long they were in that position? Bobby just looked at him in deep thought while Barrett waited. “Brother… How long are you going to think?” Barrett asked finally.He was glad that his brother was not hitting him anymore, but he did not have the whole day waiting for him to decide if he would
Sahid, who was acting as if he was unwilling to cooperate, was making Bobby grow more concerned. Bobby halts in his tracks and turns towards Sahid with a look of confusion and uncertainty. “Wait, Sahid! You must stick to the code!” Bobby said while taking a step forward and positioning himself in front of Sahid. Barrett had his arms crossed over his chest and his eyes fixed on Sahid’s every move. He was determined to ensure that they stayed on track and didn’t deviate from the agreed-upon plan. Also, they all knew that Sahid was known to be sly as a fox. He would say something that might have another hidden meaning to it. “Don’t get involved, Bobby. You’re already up to your neck in shit!” Sahid yelled, glaring at Bobby. “I want to get involved!” Bobby stepped forward, furious. “I didn’t go anywhere! I gave everything to your father, and I continue to give him champions. So I am involved!!” Sahid raised a brow at Bobby. He had a thoughtful expression on his face and didn’t appea
