Love and Deceit

"What do I fucking do now?!" The hard-faced man with a gruesome scar on his left cheek side held on to his short hair so hard that his skull became reddish-sore from the effect of the hard pull. 'Aargh!!!' he groaned in his mind. "Shut the fuck up! You got yourself in this freaking mess!" 


He was clearly fidgeting for some dreadful reason. On the chair where he sat, he shook his legs tirelessly, with both knees having zero contact with each other while he did so. He stared blankly into the gibberish artwork inked all over the walls of his secret cabin.


"I need to call Dante!" he blurted. "Why didn't I fucking think of that already?"


Pero got out his mobile phone and tried to dial Dante's number when the device slipped off his shaky hands, falling face down on the crooked floor. "Damn you! Fool! Who made this stupid device anyway? Such a moron!"
