When everything comes crashing down [2]

"Bye Ren, see you later" 

"Bye bwudda!"

"Bye" 

Smiling as I waved at my parents and Nola who were waving back at me as they stood at the front of the house, I turned around and made my way towards the entrance of the compound. 

As I turned around, the smile that was on my face faded away.

Taking out my phone I dialed Smallsnake's number. 

-Ring! -Ring! 

A couple of seconds after I dialed Smallsnake's number, answering the call, Smallsnake's voice traveled through the speakers of the phone. 

[Hello, Ren? Are you coming?]

Walking towards the exit of my parent's compound, I cut straight to the chase. 

"Smallsnake, make sure you alert me if anything happens during the time that I am traveling to the destination. I'll be there in thirty minutes" 

[Understood] 

Pausing for a second, frowning slightly I asked.

"By the way, how much did you spend?"
