《Transient Fire Works》Epilogue to chapter 4: One tiring morning

Advertisement

To re-cap what just happened, I came in after the man said to suck his candy cane. I was her savior. But I wasn't going in unprepared to get my ass whupped. I feared that my strength might not be enough and looked for other weapons. I found a carton of spoiled milk and a bunch of used protections nearby in the trash along with something that smelled like drugs and cigarettes. The milk was originally an item to be thrown at them. But in a hurry, i took off my shoe to be used and it knocked him out. If it was my old body, it would've knocked the guy out but not to this extent. But seeing that the other man saw me, i quickly took off my other shoe and it flew at him. He was lucky that it missed. But he was unlucky that he left himself wide open. Literally.

When i was done, i was afraid. Afraid that if they recognize me one day, they would come back to get revenge. So i did what i had to. I had to get black mail materials. Originally, i was about to use a electric toy on the man and turn it on auto so that his thing would be swollen, but that was too evil. But then i thought to make him and his partner to vaccum each other. But they already fainted. So i did the lesser evil thing. I put them in the position and gave them an excuse that they were just high. I don't usually do this, but it was the simple fact that revenge occurs if one shows mercy. Especially around this neighborhood with crappy police securities. I then turn to the woman and gave her a phone and ran out. Just then i heard her scream that it was the wrong phone and that she was naked.

When i look in my pockets once more, it seemed like i got the wrong phone. "Oops, it seems like i gave her the troll phone by accident. Ha ha..." I muttered. So i turned right back around, took off the top of my track suit and ready another phone to give to her. I toss the phone to her and wraps her with my track suit. She had the look of daze on her face so i gave her an excuse she could use should the police gets there in time before they wake up. I ran out as fast as i could hoping that she didn't see my face.

I swear that the fire departments always get to the crime scene on time or when there is a great fire in these areas. Why not just switch up their jobs? Fire fighters could hose down the criminals while the police arrest the arsonist before the fire even starts. That way, the crime rate might lower even faster in these areas.

-5:00 am-

Finally i reach home. Upon entering the house, i was extremely tired.

(Note: For this next part, you might wanna read it at high speed if you want to make sense of the main protagonist mental state. Otherwise, skip if you dislike boring information)

I never really describe the layout of the temporary home so i might as well now. The house was like a Victorian age house. When i enter the house, i immediately am in the hall way and there was the living room to my left and one can see the kitchen that lies beyond the living room even from the entrance. In the living room, the bed was in the far bottom left corner while the TV is in front of it in the upper left corner and the clock is above the TV. The middle of the living room was the empty space. In the far right corner of the living room, there is a cabinet that holds medicine and first aid. On the bottom right was a bunch of shelves that had pictures of the woman's family. Going to the kitchen, the kitchen sink was immediately in front and the shelves and draws are on the left. The right side had the kitchen oven and stoves while near the entrance to the kitchen from the living room had a fridge. Going back to the hall way, on my right, there are three doors. One of them leads to another big room but was empty and it leads to another big empty room that leads to the backyard. But in that room also have a closet and another door that leads you down to the basement. Never been to the basement so i won't describe it! The second door from the entrance is the storage room. The third door leads to the bathroom but the sink usually doesn't work and neither does the bath. Going back to the hallway, there is set of stairs. Up the stairs is four doors. On the far left end, when you turn left, to the left is the woman's room. The door across from her room is an empty room. To the right end of the hallway is another two doors and one of them has a working bathroom. The bathroom is on the left when you turn right in the hallway. But that bathroom is broken. Not a single appliance works up in that bathroom. But the door across it is the working bathroom. In the working bathroom, to the right is the bath/shower, to the bottom left is the sink and in front upper left corner is the toilet. Weird set up right? I know the feeling. The feeling that someone might just unlock the bathroom door and see you do your business really disturbs me. But thank god that the lock works. There! I just summarized the layout of the entire house! Wow I'm tired.

But I was tired anyway. I made my way towards the living room to check the time. It reads 5 am. So i was still good. So i went up the stairs to take a shower. I already prepared a set of clothes to wear after showering and there were towels hanging on the rack. So i went in the bathroom and closed the door to take a good shower for a good 15 minutes. The shower roared like a waterfall and drowns out all the noise but the water splashes on the floor so I pulled the curtains to prevent the splashing. "So nice..." I thought out loud. But then the water suddenly gotten cold and back to hot. I nearly screamed at the instant change. That actually ended my bath so i quickly turn off the shower and pulls the curtain out of the way.

Upon turning to my left, i saw something out of place. More like someone out of place. Right in front of me was the woman staring at me with bulging eyes. 'Was there something wrong? Why was she standing there staring at me?' I really didn't know what was wrong but things were awkward for an entire two minutes. Two whole minutes, passed like that. But then she walks right out without saying a word and back into her room and locks the door.

"Hm? Why was she staring so intently on me?" i wondered. It wasn't until i changed fully into my clothes that i notices what was wrong. It must've been the underwear on the rack that has the words, "Sexiest man alive". Yeah that must be it. It must've been those stupid sexy male underwear. She must've been thinking that I'm a weird person for wearing those types of ridiculous underwears.

What really happened was that the woman just woke up from being drunk. She wanted to go into the bathroom to brush her teeth and to take a shower. Turning the knob to the bathroom, she enters the bathroom. Jin forgot to lock the bathroom! She entered the bathroom to turn on the sink and was about to brush her teeth. That was the reason why the water temperature dropped in the shower. But he was so tired that he didn’t even hear the sound of the sink over the roaring shower.

But then the woman regain her sense of hearing. So when she realize that there was someone in the shower, she was about to rush out. But just then, the curtain opens and there stood Jin. His body still glisten palely in the shower but his hair was wet so it gave him a dark charismatic appearance. She could not help but to admire his body when she looks at him. Only a few minutes later did she regain her composure, she saw that he was fully naked, her eyes bulges outward. So she tries to walk out as smoothly as possible and least awkward as possible. She did not even notice the clothes on the rack nor the ridiculous underwear. So she re-enters her room and locks her door hoping that Jin would finish up fast.

Jin, being him, was not fully dense. But he grew up like that. He was use to people walking in on him naked. His house bathroom had a broken bathroom door. But it was too expensive to get another door. So his family decided not to spend any money on the bathroom door. Thus he had a childhood of not being ashamed of showing his body to the family. But what he forgot was that she was not family. Only later on did he realize that. So he was quite ashamed of his ignorance but can only try to forget the recent event hoping that she too would forget.
