All Strings Attached

Chapter 3

But how an ordinary person like Win knew it was a disguise police car?

"He is friend of my dad" Win replied almost immediately "He has given me ride many times so I knew it was his's" .

Bright stared at him then nodded once.

Boy was like an open diary. He thought and started walking away.

"Wait where are you going?" Win asked, following him. Bright turned back and glared at him.

"Don't be like that!" Win gasped dramatically "I saved you from getting busted"

"Why?" Bright asked, raising his chin.

"Because.." Win said, lost "Because I'll like to know you. Why can't we get along?"

Bright ignored him and was about to walk when few sketchy looking guys blocked his ways. They had face tattoes and one of them had baseball bat in his hand.

Win frowned at them and held his arm in front of Bright "Stay back"

Bright looked at him, confused, frowning.

"Hey you guys!" Win yelled, his voice unsteady " Go away! I won't let you hurt him"

Bright stared at him from behind. He could see Win's legs trembling due to fear. Ofcorse he was just an ordinary college guy. He chuckled at his courage.

This boy was really something else.

Win continued to shield Bright, his face serious. He was shaking from inside but no one has to know this.

One of the boy came ahead and pushed Win away, force making Win stumbled on the ground and fall down on his side.

The guy came to bright and wied " Hello sir "

Bright nodded once and gestured him towards a corner wall and they both went there to talk, leaving Win confused.

He stood up, brushing the dust off his clothes and waited for Bright to come back. Why does Bright know these kind of people?

He didn't give much thoughts to this question when he saw him coming back .

"Why are you still here?" Bright asked.

"Can we please talk?" Win asked.

Bright sighed and glared at Win. He won't give up easily so Bright nodded "You have five minutes"

"We can't talk here" Win said "let me take you to my favorite place"  He held Bright"s arm to drag him who immediately jerked his hand back and glared at Win hatefully "Don't fucking touch me again"

Win held his hands back in surrender and smiled "Come with me then"

Bright followed him and they reached an old railway track with hay fields around. Quiet place, cold evening. Sun going down with birds coming back to their homes to their loved ones.

Bright looked around. His lips parted, wind blowing his fringe back a little. Win stood behind him, smiling at him.

"Its peaceful here, isn't it?" Win asked, stepping ahead.

Bright blinked and looked down, ignoring Win.

"So?" Bright asked, turning towards him.

Win pouted and shrugged "I just wanted to show you this place"

"I am going back then" Bright muttered, about to walk away when Win stopped him
