-------------------

Soon after reading the notice, father of Edmund, Zyke crushed the yellow envelope furiously and threw it at the wooden dustbin at the corner, with a reckless face.

" How dare they address him as breacher? I'll teach them a lesson", groaned the caring father, whose pride got squashed by their words.

Lifting up his plate, he walked inside the kitchen from the patio, full of thought. Resting his body at an arm chair, he took a moment of ponder calming himself down to avoid disasters.

The man looked too big and muscular, with a van dyke beard for which he was popular for.

He wore a black shirt tucked inside a brown pant, hooded by a thick green velvet cloak. When he stepped out of his house, people saw him in fear and respect, drawing themselves back not to get in contact with him.

They could barely see his face ,which seemed dark duely covered by the hood. His house was located opposite to market, where his street seemed busy always.

Childrens at the street got engrossed by his swag walk, as he looked completely cool and macho.

Zyke Dube Zelano was a most interesting character in Petulando, a man who became powerful earning people's fear.

No man would believe him as a Professor at the first sight, cause it was how he seemed and behaved.

He was always revolting and a man with no patience, every person at Petulando feared to oppose.

Mother's who struggled to feed their children would scare their child using his name, as he was the most scariest for the kiddos.

Inspite of being such a personality, people started to undertand him only after noticing his behaviour after his wife's death.

Edmund was only three when Sera left the world. People adored the way Zyke took care of his only son with no complaints and hesitations in life.

As a single father, he raised Edmund as per his own rules and principles, expecting nothing from others.

The fear in everyone's heart changed to respect, who began to accept his words and orders, when situation arised.

This was how Zyke gained a huge influence of people behind his back.

No matter whatever changed, the fear for him still remained on everyones mind, as he was an unpredictable man full of rage and arrogance.

Zyke walked past the market and took few meters ahead to reach Haverlake, where his friend Mr. Paul was.

Standing infront of vintage house, he knocked the short wooden door as hard as he can.

" Oh man! Don't rush it, you're breaking my door. I'm coming", shouted a man from inside the house, making Zyke put up a grin.

A man in a regiment attire opened the door and got shocked his arrogant friend visit him for the second time in that week.

Scratching his head in frustration Mr. Paul asked him in a irritated tone," Zyke? What is it, this time? Aren't you working at Mendus Jade?".

Zyke laughed at his friend and dragged him out of the house, putting his arms around his shoulders.

" Man! Your damn heavy", cried paul, who was left out in a worrisome state, whenever he reaches him for help.

Awhile after taking a short walk, Mr. Paul heard about the notice and got shocked to find out Edmund as one among them.

" Zyke, you know about my position. I'm working under the regime not at the Ministry. If you want me make any arrangements to meet the president, I can do that not the Headman", he said bothered.

" I just want to meet Mr. Rowan in private not with others. Don't you have friends at the Ministry?", asked Zyke with expected ears.

" You will not leave me until I omit you every legal matters", paul thought to himself.

" What?"...

" well, that's nothing! Our President Mr.Pristen wasn't in good terms with the Headman. He is continually avoiding all the meetings at Felkock palace. I can't help you at this situation. He'll kick me out if I meddle with the affairs of the Ministry. I'm sorry", pleaded paul, who was on a very good position at the Regime.

Even though he wanted to help Zyke, to help the situation from getting disastrous, he was left out with no choice since the President was angry at Mr. Rowan's Headmanship.

Zyke smiled at Paul and walked back to his house, patting his shoulders heavily.

" Uh! Why is he smiling? Wait! Zyke....", paul ran behind him, whose smile looked too scary aa if bringing a huge trouble.

" Zyke, what is your plan now? What's with that smile?", Paul bawled in terror.

With a powerful smile that conveyed a terrific feel, Zyke replied in his deep tone," I thought to act good for the first time. Even fate isn't allowing me. Being bad is what that suits me".

He said and walked away, making Paul stand at the same spot for hours, shivering in fear if things might go worse than before.
