The Human Nature (2)

Kali led Gio to the drawing room and everyone dismissed after setting the tea.

Not really in the mood for tea, Kali asks away, "What is it you want to talk about?"

Gio didn't answer and she didn't press on him.

A minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes and then half an hour they just sit in silence. Usually taking time uselessly like this irates her but somehow today she is overflowing with patience and lets him take his time.

"You. . .What is your first kill like?" He finally opens his mouth.

"First kill? You mean my first human kill?"

Gio slowly blinks in agreement.

"My first kill was a masked man. I didn't even see his face. That time what I feel. . ." Reminiscing about her first kill. The blood splattering to her and the falling image of her victim.

"I feel relieved." She continues.

"H,how--  Why?"

"Because I finally paid him back for all I've endured."

"I see. . .Did it haunt you at night?"

"No."
