Chapter Eighteen

"Z-zeyt."

"Amea... don't panic... we're being followed."

When he finally clarified I froze. I don't know what to do, Who are they? are they going to hurt us? Oh god no! I'm sick! I heard Zeyt muffled lots of curses. While I'm here don't know what to do, the inside of me is already panicking.

"S-should we call... Adi and the others?" I ask with a shaky voice. Zeyt bit the inside of his lips while thinking what could might happen.

He shakes his head. "Not now." That all he said. I want to ask if who are they but I need to stop myself. I can't just blather out in this kind of moment, Zeyt needs a plan for us to escape. It's clearly that the two vans are following us.

I look at the side mirror and gasped when I only saw one. There is only one van left. Could the other van left or... I turn my gaze in front, to confirm my thoughts.

"Fuck!" Zeyt curse and hit the steering wheel. It made a turn. The van went to the opposite side so it can block us in front. It's cunning.

I could my brother's name again, "Zeyt...w-what should we do?" I stuttered. I gulp when he stop the car and the two vans stop too. Then the door opens and went out Three-man with dark cloths. I could clearly see their big guns.

"Lessen... Amea." He grabs my hands. "Make sure... you stay inside. Don't go out, If something happens ring, Adi." He said while taking off his seatbelt.

"Zeyt no! they have guns, Zeyt!" I stop him by holding his arm. He smiled at me and said everything will be okay. And then left.

That smile... that smile was full of bother, fear, and anger. My hand we're shaking while grabbing my phone. I decided to call Adi immediately we don't know what would happen.

Few rings before he answered. "Amea? Why did you call?"

"Adi..."

"Are you okay, Zeyt told me you were sick and passed out in class."

I watch how Zeyt approaches them. The three guys smiled when they saw him, I saw Zeyt glance at me. They started talking.

"Amea are you there?"

"...Some guys are blocking our ways, they are armed." I tried not to shutter but my voice is still shaky. I can't hear what they might are talking about but I know Zeyt isn't liking the topic. The other line went silence for a moment so I called him again. "Adi..."

"Where is Zeyt?" His voice sounds so firm. I didn't answer him and look at the guys and Zeyt.

I shivered when one of the guys look truth my direction as if they could see me even this car is tinted. I kinda have a gut that he is the leader among them. The guy smirks and look back at Zeyt who is talking to him. "H-he is talking with them..."

And I suddenly got an Idea. I rolled down the car window so I could at least hear them. My hands is sweating and I could feel my fever getting back. I gasped when all of a sudden the guy who looked at me earlier punch Zeyt making him fell on the cold ground then pointed the gun at him."Listen, Don't get out of the." I didn't hesitate and run out of the car. I left the phone— Adi is still on the other line.

No..no! Shit! I can't let them do that to my brother. My heart is pounding so hard that I could hear it. "Zeyt!!" I shouted. Getting all of their attention.

I run to Zeyt, who is on the ground. I saw blood on the side of his lips, he got wounded because of the punch. I kneeled so I could level Zeyt. "Why are you so hard-headed! You should-." He got cut when he heard a laugh. It was the there leader, the two on his back is still pointing at the large guns making me gulp. Is it the right choice to run here?

"So this must be..." He kneeled down and face me and look at me with admiration. "The princess of the Viglianco." He smirks.

I gather all of my courage and glare at him. "I'm not a princess," I spoke like I wasn't scared.

He smiled and giggle a little. "Well, you're the only girl in the family right? and your brother's always treat you one." He smiled evilly and help my chin. "I must say... you are very pretty. I wonder if you taste delicious also. What's your flavor dear?" He licks his lips.

My eyes, widen... It's like a bulb light upon my head. I get it now. Flavor... Taste! My taste! how dare he! I can't believe he is saying this to me! he is a pervert! "Fuck off Rofulo!" I heard my brother's angry voice. From my parallel view, I saw he raised his fist and was about to punch him. but...

Before that guy could lay any sight on my body down there. I raised my hands and slap him with all of my force. My head is heating up. I didn't let Zeyt punch him. I act first.

"Amea!" I heard my brother called out my name.

"You're disgusting! Pervert!" I said and stood up, cover my brother. Now the gun is pointing at me. The guy stood up too, also my brother but he stayed at my back.

The Rofulo guy, chuckle still holding the side of his cheek– the one that I punch. When he finally removed his hands, my hand mark is visible. it was all red. Did I break his jaw? If I could be in my normal state, I would feel sorry but hell!! he punches my brother and even tries to... I couldn't even say a word.

"You are one hella strong, for a little girl like you." He said. His eyes were full of anger but He is stopping his self from hurting me and I'm thankful for it. I might be on my deathbed right now. "Because you slap me and it was pretty good actually, I could feel my jaw detaching. You and your brother could go." He smiled at me and turn away.

I stood still watching them get inside the van. But before he could close the van doors, he winks, and then the van drove off.

That is where all my worries fly free from my body. My knees are shaking, my head is spinning and my vision is getting blurry. I cupped my forehead. This is the same feeling I felt earlier in class. But this time... I wanna vomit, but I did my best not to.

This all of a sudden I felt being lifted. It was Zeyt, he is carrying me like a baby. "I-im okay." I try to push him away but he just won't budge, I groaned in pain when I started to get lightheaded.

"After you slap that jerk, Amea. I know for sure that you are not okay." He said while walking to his car. I didn't know how he managed to open the back seat and let me lay there, a good thing there is a pillow here.

I just didn't argue with him anymore and just lay all my worries and pain from my fever.

"Hello, Adi??....No we are okay?... We uhm manage... Yeah, Amea is okay but I think her fever is coming back... She even punch Rofulo... I know I couldn't believe it either."

That's the last thing I could remember before I just slept.
