Chapter 9 Fuck the devil

"Get out of my way," Kon said in a calm tone as he narrowed his eyes at the men.

"What a feisty boy." The leader smirked as he gave Kon a once-over.

"You don't know how feisty I am." Kon smiled, "now, will you please let me pass?"

"How dare you!" The leader tried to punch him, but Kon dodged.

He bent down a bit and kicked the man in the stomach.

"How dare you?" The man growled in anger as he righted his stance.

"Wow, who would have thought he's this strong?" The devil mussed as he watched the boy who sparked his interest.

He knew the boy was bold, but never would he have thought the boy was this strong.

It didn't take Kon a minute to get the men writhing on the ground.

"Before you attack in the future, know your opponents." Kon scoffed at the men before he turned and started towards his house.

"What should we do now, boss?" Scorpion, who was at a loss of what to do, turned to his boss.

"Follow him."

The devil commanded as he watched Kon disappear down the streets.

It infuriated him that his plans didn't work.

He had expected Kon to be a damsel he would swoop in and save, but never would he have expected him to be tough.

Scorpion trailed Kon just like his boss asked him to.

His car didn't make a sound, and neither did he switch the light on.

"Where did he go?" Scorpion blinked when he saw the empty road ahead.

There was no sign of Kon who was minutes ago, walking through the empty streets as if he owned the place.

"How could you have lost him? Could-"

A knock on the devil's window startled him.

However, when he saw who it was that knocked on his window, he rolled down the window.

"Are you-"

"Don't you dare follow me any more." Kon clenched his teeth and narrowed his eyes at the devil.

"I don't know who you are, or what you want. And I'm not concerned with whom you might be.

Just leave me the fuck alone!" Kon hits his clenched fist on the car before he turned and left.

Scorpion sat there in shock as he watched the devil know what his reactions will be.

"What a feisty little diva." The Devil smiled as he watched Kon leave, "I will make sure no cuss words leave your mouth when I'm through with you, kitten."

Scorpion gaped in surprise at the devil's words.

To say he was surprised will be an understatement.

This was his first time seeing the devil act this way with another.

The devil he knew wouldn't have allowed Kon to live more than a day.

"Let's go home." The devil leaned on his seat, and closed his eyes, softly humming as he imagined all the things he could do to Kon's cute button mouth.

"Bloody mafias!" Kon kicked a bottle can next to him. He ran a hand through his hair, as he tried to come to terms with what happened between him and the devil last night.

"What's wrong?" Lin frowned at his friend, who has been acting strange since they came to class.

It was so unlike Kon to behave that way, and it surprised Lin, who has always known him as a comported student.

"What won't be wrong when that stupid devil tried to get on my nerves last night!"

"What devil?" Lin gasped, "are you speaking of the same person I think you are talking about?" He glanced around to make sure there was no one watching them.

"Who else would it be if not for that blood devil? I will make sure I rip his head off his neck the next time I see him. I will surely kill him!" Kon fumed in anger.

"Calm down, and tell me what happened, Kon. You know we are in his area, we shouldn't speak about-"

"To hell with what we should do and what we shouldn't do. I'm not afraid of him, and will never be! If he tries what he did last night, I will show him who I am!" Kon stomped.

"Okay, I've heard you, Kon. But, can you tell me what happened? I need to know why you are this worked up."

Kon sighed.

"This was what happened last night......."

*******

"Lin is just a wimp. How could he ask me to lay my head low because I insulted the devil?

Wait a minute, who insulated who? The devil was the one who started this!"

As Kon walked through the streets, he kept on soliloquizing.

Not only was he angry at the devil, but he was also equally pissed at his friend, whose advice makes him want to pull all his hair out.

"Fuck the devil! Fuck Lin!"

Kon continued to curse the devil out loud until he reached their house.

He stopped talking when their run-down house came into focus.

"I hope she's not around, or probably knocked out." He whispered as he slowly walked towards their house.

The neighbours were either gone for the day, or in their houses.

There was no one around when Kon walked past, and he decided it was for the best.

This way, he won't be forced to exchange pleasantries with those poor old ladies who reside in the house opposite theirs.

The house was quiet when Kon walked to it, so he deduced his mother was likely knocked out or wasn't around.

It was for the best.

This way, he can easily sneak into the house, and change before he goes to work.

Meeting his mother most times spoils his mood, so he was happy it won't be the same as the last time he left in anger.

He slowly opened the door and stopped dead in his tracks when he saw who it was that was standing in the middle of the parlour.

This was a scene he never would have imagined all his life.
