A few hours later.
"Keith, am I arrogant? He thinks I am too full of myself, just because i...tell me... what do you think about me?" May waited for her response but when some minutes passed and still no reply, she looked at the maid through the mirror, while she was dabbing her wet hair with the towel.
"Stop keeping me waiting" She busted. Keith, on the other hand, was cautioned to dry her younger miss hair but when she was asked for a response, her head went blank. As far as she was aware of May's character, it was unfortunate, because the young lady was like an aggressive machine when it comes or she fails to have something she wanted, and targeting the young master, was precisely too much.
May was struck dumb by her friend's silence. She grumbled aloud "You!! I am arrogant??"
Surprised by the sudden high-pitched exclamation, Keith quickly shook her head in defense "I didn't mean that...you are not haughty"
Still holding a grudge, May turned to her and questioned with a poker face "Tell me something about egoistic men. What do they like, I mean their type of women? What excites them and everything to know?"
"May!!!" Keith puckered her brows in a bolt out of the blue. Why was she getting bolder?
"W...what? Did I say anything wrong? Did I commit a crime?" May glared at her with the same vehement passion.
"Young Master is your elder brother" Keith stated to rouse the woman from her ludicrous fuss.
"Why are you also drawing a line between the both of us? It's not like we are biological siblings or even blood-related. I am the adopted one here. Is it a bad thing to like him?" May frowned as she got frustrated. She sighed weakly, looked away from her, and receded to the mirror "I want to be alone...I expected you to understand my feelings" lopsidedly.
"I just...."
"It is ok, you can leave" May clamored.

Late at night.
Somewhere in the City.
A Porsche car passed by a very disoriented building and stopped. Two welded men in black masks with a hoodie, pulled out and scampered into the moth-eaten apartment. In a brief moment, someone who seemed to be taken out by force impugned "Why is this...who are you people and why did you trespass on my property?"
Instead of feedback, he was hit head-on and wrecked into the car by one of the men, while the other was busy destroying the surveillance camera, across the street.
"No mistakes!!"
"Yeah sure"
They entered the car and sped off. The night was very cold and extremely mordant. The ruffle of littered leaves scattered throughout the road as the car was moving along.
"That shithead ruined my night!!" The one sitting next to the driver's seat complained.
"Boss wants him alive...just take your drugs and visit that pub...forget the bastard" The second one suggested responsibly. The headlights were the only visible display on the dark road as chilly faint winds on the ambient air tousled. Briefly, the car drove under a bridge and rode toward a swarthy wide alley, which led to a small warehouse.
"They are here!!" A young boy declared openly. He sprinted straight to the car and opened the door inquisitively.
"Hey! You shouldn't be out here in the cold" Tom scolded.
"Why did you take long, he was waiting." Gabriel, the other man scoffed at the boy "Changing the topic, your brother is cunny, Tom"
Tom snatched his brother's arm and told Gabriel "Take the bastard inside, I will be there soon"
Stupified, Gabriel spoke "Alone? I will kill the bastard"
Tom shrugged "Do as you please..." and left Gabriel with the man inside the car.
"That fucker!!! I get to do all the hard work again"
