Mr. Cuckold

"Hello Mr. Cuckold."

There were only background noise on the other side, but I know he is listening.

"Hello Mis—"

"Siscon, enough."

An irritated voice suddenly came from the phone.

"What enough?"

"Tsk get straight to the point, where are those two?"

"They just got out of the cafeteria. Follow them and when they got into some sick shitty thing call mood you know what to do."

"Mhm...so the payment?"

Gulp.

I hope he did not heard that. I copped my pocket for my wallet but all it had was the money just barely enough to pay the lunch.

"Do you like pudding?"

"...Are you serious?"

"What about a shortcake? The chocolate one?"

The barely audible footsteps I could hear from the phone suddenly stopped then it was followed by the call hanging up.

I quickly dialed his number again and thankfully he was not an unreasonable one.

"I'm kidding don't hang up!"

"...I don't like jokes."

"Oh you do, I saw you laughing your ass off in the library reading—"

"Should I hang up again?"

"No. Sorry, sorry, what I meant with is I kinda spent all my money this month, so can you put this one in my tab?"

Silence. I am already standing up preparing myself to chase after the two if the negotiation fell through, but then sounds of the footsteps came back from the other side.

I sighed in relief as I sat down, but then I noticed that things are not yet finished as he has yet to voice out his affirmation.

"Let's do something like this, I know you have records of most of our calls, I promise to pay you double at the first day of class next week. If I back out and did not pay you then you can do what you want with those records."

I waited for his reply, I am not as nervous as before as I could still his rhytmic steps on the phone.

"If your sister learned about this then I would offer a flower in your grave, you creepy siscon. Deal. Oh, I saw them."

"Now do your work, Mr. Cuckold."

...

"Now do your work—*toot* *toot*"

Hang up. I clicked it before I could hear the irritating nickname he gave me.

"This cuttlesh*t."

I cursed that algae-eyed devil in a murmur before looking towards my targets' backs.

The two that oozes out a lovely atmosphere together while walking was a familiar couple, they are my classmates.

Controversy always surrounds the two of them, together with gossips and clumped mixed emotions they are the hotpot that is the result of those in the limelight.

One of them was my source of money the other one is the root of all this problem. Especially now that this problem seemed started to use his brain.

"Leading her into some secluded place so I can't disturb you? We can't have that."

I long realized that to reach my dream I have to resolve myself to step on anyone that's on my way. There were no hard feelings between us but I need money, tons of cash.

Also after doing something like this for a long time I kind of started to hate Alfred a little. It's not like I am siding with frozen tuna, but whenever I imagined that jerk laying his slimy tentacles on my sister I get angry.

However I still won't do anything to bother them if I am not being paid.

Right, what if I offer Alfred that I would not disturb him anymore, if he pays me double—no triple Aster's payment?

"No, I can't trust that guy."

Its better to do this kind of transaction to someone you'd already laid foundations with, at least that siscon is an idiot when it came to his sister.

Meanwhile that Asian carp fish always spew lies and currently at his rebellion phase. Also I don't know if he will bother me after I sold that, my peaceful life is important.

Alfred suddenly veered off the paved path and gestured Azalea to follow him, then the two of them weaved through the knee high grassy field, their destination is somewhere in those woods right at the field.

I did not immidiately followed them instead walk straight like I did not see someone done a stupid thing.

Exactly one minute I turned around and with a jog I arrived to where they veered off.

Following the obvious trail that they should have covered if they are planning on doing something, I easily spotted the two.

I don't know who in the right mind would build a gazebo in these part of school where only things that frequent it are the stray cats and some insects in summer, but damn he really picked a secret place to do some clandestine things, he got cautious after all.

I saw the two of them in their seats with notes laid on the table in front of them, but no one is reviewing anything at all.

It looks like Ms. Ice Princess mind was not in the study part of the session as she just continued to blabbered her mouth, though I could not hear anything from my place.

When I first did a job like this I could not believe it when Aster told me that this cold tuna who looks and is truly intelligent can be this stupid when she's near this carp, he is her kryptonite, but now that almost two years have passed since I started, what I am seeing now is not that surprising.

From what I notice their fingers are just centimeters away from touching each other, what a good investment it is to buy a telescope, we can't have them do that as it will snowball into a good mood for them to do something like a kiss.

Aster would easily notice if his sister acted strange after all so I can't let it pass.

However it's still 14 minutes before the end of lunch and it is a large time for them to do some other things.

What should I do? Because of the suddenness of this situation I could not prepare any plans at all.

I could not just 'accidentally' barge in there, I already done that and the after effects that happened already gives me migraine just remembering it.

So, what should I do?

Aster did tell me that he'll double the payment and even if its paid in the later week I should not skimp on my job.

Suddenly a rustling noise occured at my side. I looked at the bush just in time for me to see a rabbit's head popped out of it.

Its black beady eyes and mine met then it suddenly bolted out towards somewhere, its so fast that I only see a brown flash.

There were no wild rabbits in the school as far as I know so it must mean its a school bred one that might have escaped from it's cage. Was it a new batch? Cause it did not approached me and instead run away like a wild critter.

Well no matter, thanks to that little guy I already have three plans. The first one will sacrifice my own school life, most likely, the second would be hard to do and if I am not careful what will happen in first one will also happen but just much worse, as for the third its simple and easy all I need is friends from the Animal Keepers Club.

I scoped back and saw the worse happened. The tuna was unfrozen and bright red while the carp started flapping excitedly in the face of the pond, their fingers touched!

I immediately decided to go with the second plan as it has a large chance of me succeeding. I took out the green thread among it's school from my sewing kit, luckily we had sewing class this morning.

Then I tied the thread around the trunk of a bush before pulling it...then let it go. I repeated the steps again and the bush made a rustling sound.

I smiled when I heard that.

"Aster's money would not be a waste with this."
