Just curious, nothing else
By the way, in case any of you were wondering why that mortal girl could affect me to some extent, please let me get it straight to you as early as now. I am not in any way attracted to her. Not at all! Okay? It was just that something about her spiked my interest. When I saw her at the bar that night, well... I... Uhmmm...
I don't know!!!!
She felt familiar. I guess.
Yes! That was right! That must be it! She gave off a certain degree of familiarity to me and just like before when I saved her back when she was still a kid, I was curious why the demons were after her that night.
It was just my curiosity taking the better half of me again. That was all. So I tried to ring her back. But what I did not expect was for her to pick up the call straight away.
"Hello, Jared? Is that you? Did you got my message?"
I heard the urgency in her voice as if she has been waiting for me to contact her the whole day and I could almost imagine her holding her phone even in her sleep, not daring to put it down even for a second; out for fear of missing out my call.
"Yeah, well, the thing is I can't discuss it with you over the phone right now. But if you are willing you can go and meet me at the port."
I suggested with a yawn.
At this point, Rico and the others were also starting to wake up one after another and that was when I noticed that Rhian was missing.
"Where is Rhian?"
I mouthed to them just in time as when Cassie answered so I held my hand in the air to hush them first.
"Can you see me right now?"
I heard her asked me from the other end of the line and before I knew it, I already agreed.
"Sure!"
My mind was blown when I heard my own voice agreeing with her terms just like that and even my colleagues were shocked when they witnessed I was that easy to talk to. It was not like I was always available and I have all the time of my life. I was well aware of the fact that we have some pending hunting works to do; we already have enough tasks on our hands. However, it was as if I gained another consciousness inside me fighting control over my psyche, and without giving my mind a chance to have second thoughts, my mouth responded to the other party and quickly replied with an affirmative attitude.
"Right now, is fine with me. I am on my way."
I even added before hanging up.
