Das took off his clothes and turned on the shower. He stood under it and quietly sighed.
'Today was a very tiring day' He grabbed the shampoo bottle and started washing his hair.
"The last I rember killing soone was before I t Elena."
'Now that I think of it, I have been a lot busier ever since I t her.'
'I an, yeah; I tutor her, but still, three hours shouldn't make much difference.'
"Could it be that I have changed? Or she has changed ?"
'She is really great. I enjoy spending ti with her. Even when I tutor her, I just keep thinking that mont lasts forever.'
"I wonder what she feels about tutoring her? Does she enjoy being with ?"
'When we first t, and the following days weeks, she just kept annoying . She also used to be a quiet person. But then she started speaking back, and in the end, she started teasing .'
He applied conditioner to his hair. "Seriously, what's wrong with ? Why do I let her tease like that?"
'Maybe because I don't see any other way for interacting with her?'
He washed his hair.
"I can't wait for tomorrow to et her again."
'I hope night passes by quickly so I can et---'
Das gulped down as sweat poured down his face. "That's not possible... right?"
Das quickly grabbed his towel and wore his clothes, then dashed out of the bathroom.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Are you that hungry?" Angela remarked.
"I will be right back, mom!" Das rushed out of the house.
"Wait! Where are you going? Das!" Angela sighed as she sat on the sofa. "I am a failure as a wife and a mother."

"Dammit"
"Dammit!"
"Dammit all!"
Das was running as fast as he could. His speed was a lot more than before.
"Why did I. How could I forget?"
It was nearly 8 PM, the sun had set, and the streets were lonely.
This area of the city was always quiet during the nightti because there were no houses nearby. The entire district was full of shops and buildings.
"I just hope I just hope she got bored and went ho." Das had forgotten that he left Elena at school.
She said she would wait for him, but Das had forgotten about it.
His mind was occupied with killing those spies and then going back to Derek. Not only that, he had to make sure not to leave any evidence. Because of all that, he completely forgot about Elena, who was waiting for him at the school.
Right now, Das was just hoping she got bored of waiting for him and went ho.
Das kept running, ignoring everything that ca his way. He just wanted to reach school as soon as possible.
As he was running, the thought of calling her phone passed his mind. He tried to take out his phone, "Dammit!" He cursed again.
He forgot to take his phone with him. More precisely, when he was taking off his clothes, he didn't take out his phone.
"What's wrong with ? How can I be so dumb?!" He was blaming himself for nothing.
It was his fault, but he did feel responsible for it.
If anything were to happen to Elena, he would never be able to forgive himself.
"Co on, Das! Run faster!" He was pushing his limits.
Suddenly, he heard a borne-yell that ca from so distance.
Das stopped running and then walking. He glanced around to find the source of the yell.
'It was a girl's voice. And school is also near from here. Elena always walked from this street when she went ho.'
Das couldn't help but have negative thoughts in his mind that just fired his anger more and more.
"Help!" He heard the yell again.
Das once again glanced around, but he still couldn't find the source.
It was dark even with the street lights on. The area he was in had run-down buildings. Most of them went bankrupt or closed due to the riots 28 years ago.
Since no one had claid the rights to the property, there was no maintenance of it, and the governnt was just waiting for the contract to end so that they could claim it as the governnt property.
"No! Help m--!" This ti, the scream was much louder and clearer.
Das walked into the alley. It was so quiet that even the sounds of footsteps could be heard clearly.
Das was making sure not to make any sound of his footsteps.
He could hear a muffled voice from nearby. He increased his pace and kept walking.
He crouched down and peeked in the next alley. His eyes widened as he saw a shadow moving to the alley that was next to it.
Das quietly walked closer to the edge and peeked further. He could see two shadows coming out from the further alley.
Without making any noises, Das walked closer, moving from one wall to another and making sure to keep his shadow hidden under other shadows.
As he reached closer, he peeked and saw five n standing in the alley, surrounding a girl.
He couldn't see the girl's face, but he was now sure that it wasn't Elena.
He sighed in relief and prepared to leave.
'I was worried for nothing. I should leave; this has nothing to do with ,' he thought.
'I am not a hero who beats up bad guys and helps everyone in need. I am just a villain who can't stand any cris' He started walking straight.
'I don't care what happens to who. I don't care if soone dies or soone gets raped.' He walked further.
'As long as my loved ones are safe, I don't care about this world or the people in it.'
He moved his hand and grabbed the head of one of the n. 'I don't care about anyone as long as my loved ones are safe, and to keep my loved ones safe, I need to get rid of all the cris and criminals.'
