The Diamond Cult

Retour en Arrière

"I invited a few friends, that's not a problem right?"

"Of course not, Dave. Your friends are our friends."

"Alright. They just texted they're outside."

"Cool."

Leo, Rose, Cerberus and Angel came in.

Unknown's friends stared at them as they entered the bar.

"Are those your friends?"

"Yeah."

"I don't believe you. They-"

"Hey bud!"

Leo soon spotted Unknown.

She whispered to Rose,

"What name is he going by?"

"Probably Dave."

"Heh, predictable."

They walked over to the table. Unknown's friends stayed frozen in their places.

Cerberus cleared his throat.

"Uhm, can you scoot over?"

"Of course, sorry."

They shook their heads, snapping out of the trance. They scooted over.

Leo and Rose sat down as Angel and Cerberus snatched some chairs from another table.

Unknown nudged Leo. Who understood and started introducing herself and the crew.

"How have you been....Dave?"

"I've been quite good, Jen."

Leo smiled.

"I want some alcohol, don't y'all want some too?"

Cerberus suggested with a big smile on his face.

"You with your alcohol."

"Oh shush, Rose. Andrew agrees, right?"

Angel nodded approvingly.

"I do, I always agree with alcohol."

He laughed, his bright smile easing up Unknown's friends.
He looked at them.

"So, how do you guys know Uh-Dave?"

"We work with him."

"You do? At the garage?"

"Yeah."

"What 's you name again?"

"Adam."

"A name that starts with an A is always a good name."

"Hehe, yeah. You have an accent, huh? Where are you from?"

"I'm from Spain. I'm a proud half Spanish half Equatorian."

"Awesome. I'm Korean American."

"Cool. So you're-"

"Korean American? 대박!"

Leo decided to turn the conversation away from Angel before he could make a racist joke.

Rose smiled, knowing Leo's deal.

Meanwhile Cerberus and Unknown's other friend had an in-depth conversation about different alcoholic drinks.

Unknown shook his head.

"What's up?"

Rose put her hand on his back.

"Just a flashback."

"Hmm."

"Are you gonna be okay seeing his family?"

Leo stood beside him.

"Yeah, I think so. I need to talk to them."

"We understand, it's important for you."

Leo nodded, agreeing with Rose.

"Should we wait with you?"

Rose asked him, maintaining eye contact to signal she was being serious.

"You don't have to, I'll be fine. Thanks."

"Alright, take care. Call us if anything's up, yeah?"

"Alright."

Leo and Rose left.

Unknown played with a wrapper. After waiting for 30 minutes Azra tapped his shoulder.

"They're on their way. They'll be here in 15 minutes."

"Hmm."

"I understand that you're mad, but we should be civil. For them."

Unknown kept his gaze on the wrapper.

"I'm sorry. I know a sorry won't bring him back, but- I'll shut up."

Azra walked around, talking to people and constantly checking his phone.

Angel's family entered.
