2 WILL YOU HOLD MY HAND OR NOT?

''After meeting that mystic cripple this quiet place has become crowded with so many cars. I should leave as soon as I can.'' Leaving that narrow alley Elina says with anger.

Police are finding, checking the buildings. Not being able to find that serial killer detective Richard gets tense and goes in front of that building. Wearing a black long coat, with a wrinkle of thought on his forehead, he takes out a cigarette places it between his lips. While lighting the cigarette Sergent John Diego comes and places his hands on the lights so that the cold air can't choke the fire. He says ''From when you start to take a cigarette sir?'' Firing the lights on cigarette Detective Richard say ''Ever since this case has started. This case is a kind of mystical.''

Elina gets hungry. So many things happened that she forgot to eat. And she is now in a human realm besides she doesn't have any money to use. Looking at the glass of a restaurant she says ''If I was in my realm I would not have to suffer from hunger. I wish! I had my power.'' Seeing the food of the restaurant she feels more hungry and pitiful. Sitting on the ground in front of the restaurant leaning against the glass surface she looks at the sky with worries.

A tall young man with silk hair, wearing a tee-shirt, a backpack on his shoulder suddenly comes in front of Elina. He says ''Miss are you hungry?'' Elina nodded her head.

While eating a bowl of soup, beef steak, chicken fry, the young man asks ''Were you really this hungry?''

With food in her mouth she response quickly''Actually I do not get this kind of hungry, so many things are going with me and I haven't eaten for two days and besides, I also don't have any money.''

''Don't you have anyone here?'' the boy asks.

''I'm not from here.'' with food In her mouth.

''Oh! I see. Don't you have nowhere to go?'' with a face of anxiety he says.

With an angry face, Elina says'' Queen Alexa who is my aunt has kicked me out of the realm and send me here as a punishment. So, I have nowhere to go''.

Being overwhelmed he says,'' Queen? Who is Queen?''

''Oh! I'm sorry. You will not understand.'' finishing her food she says. Thank you for the meal. You are a good cripple. I will give you a gift when I will go back to my realm.'' being satisfied she says with a smile on her face while wiping her face with a tissue.

Smiling without any hope of getting a gift from her he says " Where will you go now?''

''I don't know. Perhaps I will walk on the street.'' being frustrated Elina says.

''Wanna wark at my shop?'' suddenly he asks her with a curious face.

''What I will get by working in your shop?'' being surprised Elina says.

Being confused ''Money! Don't you want it?'' he asked her hoping that she will say yes.

''Is that so. Then I will work. But why do you want to hire me?''

'' To be honest, You are beautiful. It will attract customers. I don't get a lot of customers usually.'' placing his finger on the corner of his ear he says with shyness.

Heading to the store he asks '' By the way what's your name?''

''Elina. Yours?''

''Teo.''

Entering the shop Elina says '' Wow! You have so many things here.''

Hearing that suddenly Teo asks with tense " Do you know how to sell?''

''I don't know. But I can do everything that can cripple do."

''Are you sure?''

Being relieved by taking a deep breath Teo says ''I am saved that you can. I will tell you everything tomorrow. It's late now. Will ya join from tomorrow?''

''Yeah, sure,'' Elina says with confusion.

''Ok then. But where will you sleep today?'' Teo ask

''Oh, NO! I didn't think about it. What do I do now?'' being crazy.

''It's okay. You can sleep in the shop. Here have a storeroom where I usually take a nap. But you have to move out soon.''

''OK'' [ Still confused about what she is doing on earth]

[At Sebastian place]

''Sir, Elina is staying inside a shop. She met with a man who is helping her name, Teo Shin. He was a programmer in the ICMM company but lost his job 3 months ago and banned because of his aggressive behavior. He came to the city 2 years ago. He doesn't have a family. All of his family members died when he was 20. Now he runs a shop. But the thing is he had never tried to find a job after losing that job in ICMM.''

''I see. Did you made a plan for what I have told you for?'' a cold voice comes from Sebastian.

''Yes sir.''

After turning off the light still, the room has some light, coming from that small window placed in the wall. Lying on the bed with one hand up seeing the fingers Elina says ''I must go back to the kingdom.'' She places both of her hands on the chest bending her knees.

[At the shop]

In the morning, Teo comes and opens the shops. He knocks at the door of the storeroom.''Elina are you awake? It's time for to work.'' After knocking on the door for a long time Teo gets tired and entered the room. Elina is sleeping in peace. Teo goes to her try to wake her up. With closed eyes, Elina says with anger ''If I wake up I will kill you.''

''I am Teo, Elina. Please wake up.''

Opening half of her eyes she gets shocked and says sorry to him. Placing her hand on the forehead she says ''I thought I was in my realm.''

Teo explains everything to her, how to sell, how to talk with people. After noticing how she is doing the work he says,'' You are really a great learner. And remember you have to move out soon. I will give you advance payment and will look for an apartment for you.''

''You are really great Teo. You are really helpful I am going to give you an important position in my realm when I will become a queen.'' Elina says while calculating the money with a smile.

Hearing that Teo closes his eyes, he feels he should not have hired her. At the same time, he feels that it was a good idea to hire her cause the customer's number is rising especially high school boys. He nodded his head with frustration.

When work time is over, Elina says ''I am going to see this city. Don't close your shop.''

''Don't be late otherwise I will close this shop.''

[At police station]

''Sir, I have found where that girl is staying.'' giving some CCTV footage to detective Richard.

''It's good. Did you send someone to follow her?'' Richard asks him while seeing the footage.

''Yes. A man from our department following her. But sir, I think this girl doesn't relate to the serial killer.''

''Why do you say that?'' Richard asks him with a tough face.

''Cause sir, I think this girl is poor. She was starving from hunger that night perhaps she just met with the serial killer that night.''

''You are wrong John. We didn't get any CCTV footage of what happened on the rooftops. It can happen that the girl was waiting for him. Think, why a girl would go to a rooftop that late at night. Besides, that serial killer was in rush, he was too close to us to get caught. At that moment why he will take a girl to the next building. Bring that girl here.''

''Ok, sir.''

It's a quiet night, Elina is looking at a small dance competition stand by the road. Where young couples are participating with their partners. The couples are so sweet. They are looking so happy. Suddenly a man in a white shirt, wearing a tie, not too long in middle age. There were two men behind her standing like a guard. ''Miss, can you come with us to the police station. We will just interrogate you.'' Elina agreed with them instantly being curious and says ''Yes.''

[ At the Police station, interrogation room]

They give her a coffee and at that moment Richard William comes with some of her CCTV photos. He gives some of the photos to her and says ''Hello miss, I am Richard willam, a detective. I brought you here to interrogate about what happened at the rooftop when you were with that serial killer.'' asks with a tough face. Taking the coffee and the photos '' Serial killer! Are you saying the men I saved at the rooftop was a killer?''

''Are you saying you saved him?'' Richard asks.

''Answer my question first then I will answer yours.'' having a sip of coffee she says.

Being appalled he says ''Yes. Didn't you know that?''

''NO. It was my first time meeting a serial cripple and that's amazing.'' her eyes get surprised with happiness and an excited smile on her face.

''Can you tell me what exactly happened there?''

'' I was going to jump from there to bring my power and then he came and fall, I grabbed his hand but he pulled me down and took me to the next building and left me on a narrow street.''

''That's all!''

''Oh yes! That cripple didn't thank me.'' finishing that coffee she says.

''You are saying you went there to find power? Are you enjoying the show? Why you are lying?'' being disgusted Richard says with anger in his eyes.

''Which of my words seems lie to you?'' with a cold face she asks.

''Why did you went to that rooftop?''

'' You are so annoying. I have already told you I went there to find my power and listen, talk with manners. It's an order.''

Hitting the tables with the hands Richard stands up being angry and goes close to her and says with a tough face '' If you say one more lie I am going to lock you here for days.''

Elina gets angry and slapped him hard on his face and presses his head on the table and says ''You are just a cripple how dare you, behave like that in front of me.'' Quickly surgent John comes and locks her with handcuffs. Richard says while his nose is bleeding '' File a report for hitting a policeman. This interrogation will go on lock her here, I am coming after a while.''

They lock the door. ''Why my hand is obstructed with this fucking table? I'm going to kill them.''

Sitting for a while on the chair suddenly the windows of that room opens. A cold wind comes and it was that cat masked boy. ''Hey? I am locked up here because of you?'' She shouted at him. He comes quietly and puts a finger on her lips and says ''Be quiet if you want to get out of here.'' While he is unlocking the handcuffs Elina asks him ''How did you know I was here?''

''Hey answer my question?''

He unlocked the handcuffs and stand on the windows, extend one of his hands to her, and says '' Wanna come with me or stay here?''

''What do you mean?'' Elina asks.

''Will you hold my hand or not?''
