I could hear Koen banging around the kitchen. It sounded like a war was happening in there, I could hear the bullets hitting the metal mixing bowl. Koen was a good cook, he was just very loud and messy in the process of making the dish. And guess who has to clean up afterwards... yup you guessed right, neighbor sally who's had a crush on Koko since we moved here five months ago. No, you idiot, me...
I sighed loudly and open my eyes, "aghhhhhhhhhh!" I screamed at the ceiling.
Bing Bang Clang, the sound of metal hitting the tiled floor greeted me back.
"What the sh*t was that?" Koen growled from the kitchen.
"That was me calling the strength I need to get up" I said loudly back at him as I slowly inched up wards. Finally on my feet I left the bedding there for Koen to trip over and complain about but eventually fold away and went into the dining room.
On the ground I noticed a huge paper taped down. I could see the faded outline of a building on it. I slipped into the bathroom to handle business, before coming back out to see breakfast served right before the huge taped down paper.
Koen now sitting down with a pair of spoons in his hand. Patted the empty spot next to him before a dish of bacon eggs and sausages. I splatted myself exasperously unto the floor. Flailing my limbs out, to show my intense dislike of having been awake at so early.
That was all before I saw a third plate on the other side of Koen as he set the spoons down.
I jumped back up, arms stretching out pointing in its direction
"Oh my greens, Red's coming today!?" I shouted excitedly.
"Yes, now pipe down" Koen grabbed my hand dragging me back down, "it's too early for this"
Huh... for Koen, the early bird to say that made me very confused.
"What time i-" my question cut off midway by my body flying half way through the dining room as it was tackled by another.
"Ow, what the helk!" I tried to break the lock I was held in. Rolling about exasperatedly.
A knuckle came down onto my head as out of the corner of my eye I saw Koen eating very relaxedly. Bloody bastard didn't even try to help me, not a look of concern or care flashed onto his face. The rough nuggie I got in that moment, another point to the suckiness of this morning.
"Let me goooo!" "Get off of me!" "I'll bite you" I tried.
"Melani, it's way too early for this shouting" the grip loosened up slightly, not letting go exactly.
"Don't you think?" A tight smile was plastered to the face of our third housemate, Red as he brought his head over mine looking at me upside down.
"What time is it?" I asked looking at Koen as I was at free.
"Just after 7" he replied and I could've fainted. With a look of petrified astonishment, I froze. All this time I could've been sleeping, it was too early for me to be up and now here I was, suffering because of it. A rough hand petted my hair down a bit. The brown curls having become a mess from all the tousling.
Sitting back down at my food. I dug in. Quickly I ate so that o could go right back to sleep. As I got back up to take my dish to the sink, a solid grip reached my ankle.
"Not so fast" Koen looked me dead in my eyes as his hand gripped my ankle tighter. I could've cried. I gingerly sat down again as Koen pointed to the fortress drawn out on the paper. That was the only way to describe what I was seeing. From the thickness of the outer walls, to the maze of a garden in the back. Every detail of the estate was carefully drawn out.
"This is the last hit?" Red asked confused, I was confused as well, I thought it would be just some simple little shack in town or something. But no, this was a beast, whoever chose this place was one greedy bastard.
"Yeah" koen affirmed, "the santolliani house"
I gawked, if I were eating I would've choked.
"The where now?" I turned to face him, "is Bayern mad?" My head dropped slightly to the side.
"Oh greens, he wants us to die young" I looked to the ceiling arms outstretched,my face screwed up as crocodile tears trickled down.
But Koen and Red eyeing me up.
"No" Red exclaimed, "tell Bayern to pick somewhere else"
"It's our last bust we can do smothering easy" he tried to reason.
"They voted" Koen muttered out "this was the easiest Bayern could've interjected for"
"So now that they can't use us they want to kill us on our last go?!" Red snarled. His green eyes squinted in anguish.
"This is ridiculous" he got up offering me a hand up with his free arm, before walking to the sink. I followed him placing my bowl in, not finding the motivation with in me to start cleaning up koen's mess.
Walking back to the 'bedroom', Koen was deep in thought over the map, as red went into the closet probably to pull out his own bedding. I shut the curtains darkening the room greatly.
Koen joined us, also taking out his bedding.
"Group nap!" I cheered, neither of them sharing my energy in the moment.
"They want us to head over there later tonight to discuss how we're infiltrating" Koen announced.
"Ridiculous a*s place and now they're rushing it too, d*mn these people" Red speaking my own thoughts out loud.
Red was a cool guy, probably named after the color of hair on his head I'd like to believe, his mother took one look at those red looks and in her mistake of identifying it the doctor took it as his name, besides that I couldn't understand why else she'd name him Red.
His dream was engineering, he wanted to get into automation and doing some electrical engineering on the side. A cool dream for a cool person.
We all laid down in the dimmed out room, nothing of note to be heard, falling asleep.
N.b, I think I'll try to turn this into it's own little short story, I like the high energy character and I want to see if I can keep him in such high spirits through out a whole story. I normally get too lazy... and I think I have a general idea of how it's gonna go.
