My First Time

"That was fun." The girl on the bed said. Her name is Monica which I just learned after checking in on the hotel rooms above the bar.

"Yeah." I said as I'm putting on my shirt. Sex is pleasurable and all but there's just something to one night stands that make you feel empty afterwards and can't help but feel that there's something missing.

I always hear people say that sex is magical and mind blowing but to me it is just something that feels good. My first experience was with an older woman who I also met in a bar, she said she'll show me a good time and me being a rebellious 16 year old went with her. My first time was okay, I was awkward at first but as the night went on it became more hot and steamy, since she was already experienced my awkwardness didn't last long.

We met up a few times after that but soon I could tell she wanted something more with the way her eyes look at me and I really didn't want that. So before everything got serious and troublesome, I texted her that I wouldn't be seeing her anymore, replaced my number and went to a different part of the city to avoid seeing her.

Eventually I did run into her but it didn't feel weird, we just laughed it off and that's the end of that.

I look at my watch to see that it's only 12:34 in the middle of the night. "Going already?" Monica asked.

I smiled lazily at her. "Yeah, don't worry this hotel room has already been paid for the night."

She stared at my smile in a daze before quickly replying with a hmmmm. She took a pen from her bag and wrote her number. "Call me when you want to go to paradise again."

"Sure sweetheart." I accepted it and even let her see me dial it in my phone.

I grabbed my wallet and car keys, I bid her good bye and left. When I was in the car I deleted her number from my phone and drove off. Is it cruel?

*Yeti Chen Compound*

A glass paper weight suddenly flew across the room almost hitting someone but luckily missed it's mark and shattered next to the target. The man didn't even flinch when the paper weight could have possibly hit him.

"ALEKS YOU DAMN SON OF A BITCH!" Yeti Chen roared.

The people inside the room exchanged glances fully knowing they'll get beaten severely. Yeti Chen threw more stuff indiscriminately and some of them landing on the people in the room where one even fainted on the impact.

He exhaled loudly like a bull before glaring at the people in from of him. "What did that damn bastard say to the others?"

"Boss, Aleks leaked out news that we we're secretly colluding with the Phantoms and the others we're unwilling to cooperate with us anymore." One of his men reported.

Yeti Chen smashed his fist in the table. "Colluding huh? Threatened is the fitting word. Those scoundrels have my grandson and they want that kid named Chao Ren. If I could have been more careful and didn't let that rascal they brought go sneak around." He gritted his teeth. "He definitely noticed something. The previous agreements with other gangs aren't worth sh*t now."

"Boss what should we do?"

"Have you found who Chao Ren really is?"

"Sorr-" Before the subordinate even finished a book hit him in the face.

"USELESS!"

"Boss, we've been sneaking around Aleks territory and we haven't seen Chao Ren again. But we did find out that Chao Ren isn't living in Aleks' territory." One courageous individual reported.

"F*ck even more troublesome. Kidnap someone even higher position, and torture the information out of them." Yeti Chen ordered.

"But boss, we'll be making an enemy out of them."

"You guys really are dumb. The moment they found out about our relations about Phantom we we're already enemies. Beside if I were really to hand Chao Ren to them, I won't just have my grandson back but also have Phantom's backing." Yeti Chen explained with a cruel smile pasted on his face.

*Shen Manor*

"You should come back as soon as possible." Master Shen ordered.

Shen Jin just simply nodded before leaving. Shen Jin saw his little brother with his tutor at the garden. The little one didn't see him since he was facing his little brother's back. Shen Jin could see that his brother was bored out of his mind which made him chuckle in amusement, it reminded him of Qin Bai everytime they're in the class.

Qin Bai would always be absent minded, always going inside his little world without a care. Shen Jin felt that it was a pity they didn't keep in contact, he was the first friend Shen Jin ever made, although he does have more friends now but you can only count them with one hand.

Everytime he thought about Qin Bai it would always make him smile, the Qin Bai now just didn't care and seem to be free but Shen Jin would occasionally see darkness buried in his eyes, as if one day he would explode. There we're times Qin Bai would smile coldly to himself, and just laugh suddenly making nearby people think he's crazy but Shen Jin wasn't stupid. He knows that Qin Bai went through something that made him the way he is today, Qin Bai made him feel like a camera was recording his every move when Qin Bai's eyes landed on him.
