Vegas's P.O.V:
I went to shower then to the basement of the main family's house and saw the man tied up to a chair.
"Oh...Hello there" I said smiling.
Then walked over to him.
"Why am I still here I already told your friend that I don't have the money" The man said angrily.
I raised an eyebrow in amusement.
"Hmmm...But our information said you took it" I said.
Then put a hand on his shoulder.
"But since you refuse to talk...I think we should play" I said.
Then opened my bag and took out a scalpel and a pair of tooth pliers.
"So...Which do you want to lose first? Teeth or fingers?" I asked.
The man looked at me horrified as I walked closer to him.
"Don't worry...It'll be over before you know it" I said.
Then grabbed his hand and started tearing up at his finger with the scalpel.
The man screamed loudly.
"Shhh...You don't want to disturb the people sleeping upstairs now...Or do you?" I asked.
The man shook his head.
"Where did you take the money?" I asked.
"It's not...It's not with me I'm telling you" He stuttered.
"Who told you to steal it?" I asked then grabbed another finger.
"You psychotic bastard" The man managed to scream by the time I was done with his third finger.
I sighed heavily and nodded then went to face him before grabbing his jaws and forced his mouth open.
I put the pliers in his mouth causing him to gag and shake his head.
"It won't hurt more then your fingers...But seriously this is going to hurt" I said smiling.
The man tried to move his head away but I gripped his jaw tightly.
"Oh well...Say hello to the tooth fairy" I said in english.
Then pulled out a tooth.
The man started shivering in pain even more.
"I won't ask you again...Where is the money and who told you to steal it?" I asked.
"The...The Spanish don's family...I'm really sorry...Please spare me" He said in tears.
"Oh well...Wasn't that easy?" I asked.
Then went back upstairs.
"It's the Spanish family" I said.
Kinn nodded.
"You might need a doctor to take care of his severed fingers" I said.
Kinn pursed his lips into a thin line so I only shrugged.
"Do you still have more of that wine?" I asked.
He sighed heavily and facepalmed then pointed at the bottle.
I sat down on the sofa and started twirling my drink after I was done pouring it into a glass.
"So what are you going to do about this family?" I asked then gulped down my drink.
He sat down next to me and lit a cigarette then raised it to his lips as I poured myself another drink.
"The usual" He said as he let the cigarette breath out.
I nodded and gulped down my drink.
"From what I see the Spanish family aren't serious about their revenge considering that they went for money instead of heads" He said.
I nodded and stood up then took out a cigarette and lit it before raising it to my lips.
"Are you going to send them a warning?" I asked.
"Yes" He said.
I nodded then took another cigarette breath.
"How is Pete?" He asked.
I raised an eyebrow.
"Why do you ask?" I asked.
He shrugged so I chuckled in disbelief.
"How is Porsche?" I asked.
"Alright I guess" He said.
"Same for me" I said shrugging.
He nodded.
"I might need your help with more work in the future so..." He started.
"Are you offering me a permanent job?" I asked frowning in confusion.
He shrugged and nodded.
I sighed heavily and nodded.
"Comes the day" I said.
He nodded.
"Yeah" He said.
Then we both chuckled and shook our heads.
I patted his shoulder before leaving.
(The next day)
Porsche's P.O.V:
I took a deep breath and nodded to myself then got on the fighting ring.
The person in front of me reached for my arm but I pushed his hand away and grabbed his collar.
I pulled him over then threw him to the floor.
"Point" The referee said.
My rival grabbed my collar and flipped me over his shoulder but I landed on my feet and reached for his collar again.
He grabbed my waist but I managed to shift his weight by grabbing his arms instead of his collar then forced him on the floor again.
"Point" The referee said.
I let go of the guy and he went for my back but then he kicked my knee from behind causing me to fall.
"This one is against the rules" The referee said to the player.
I stood up immediately and grabbed the rival's arm then draped it over my shoulder and ducked us both down flipping him over my shoulder.
Then knelt down by his side while still keeping a good grip on his arm.
The referee started counting then I finally won.
I let go of his arm and left the ring.
This was the last match for today.
I went to get some water then sat down to rest and closed my eyes lazily.
I felt a towel on my head.
"Nice work" Kinn said patting my shoulder.
"I thought you had work" I said.
"Hmmm...I got it postponed" He said.
I nodded and drank more water.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"Hmmm...Drying your hair" He said.
I shrugged and nodded.
After some time he sat down next to me.
"Do you still have more games here?" He asked.
I shook my head.
"Good then let's go somewhere" He said.
Then patted my shoulder again.
"You just won that calls for a celebration right?" He asked smiling.
"Well...Yeah I suppose" I said.
Then drank more water.
"Let's get going then" He said standing up then gave me his hand.
"I still have to shower before leaving you know" I said.
Then went to the shower room.
After some time I was done showering and walked over to him again.
He was talking to someone on the phone.
"No Time you're the one to blame for your behaviour don't go blaming me" Kinn said.
I raised an eyebrow.
"You know? If you want him back go talk to him yourself this has nothing to do with me...But I must tell you that I'm picking Tae's side since you've done this before" Kinn said exasperated.
He stayed silent for what felt like a minute then facepalmed.
"You know what? I'm hanging up...I'm in a good mood for a celebration so I don't want to ruin that...Bye" He said.
Then hung up and turned to me.
"So...I guess you told your friend right?" I asked.
He sighed heavily and nodded.
"Did you figure out who the third party is?" I asked.
Kinn shook his head.
"Let's talk about something else...I mean this topic is really gloomy don't you think?" He asked.
I sighed heavily and nodded.
"Let's go...I booked us dinner in a nice place" He said.
I nodded and followed him but to my surprise he stopped by his house first.
"Why are we here?" I asked.
"To change into more fitting clothes" He said shrugging.
I frowned in confusion and looked down at my clothes.
"Why? What's wrong with my clothes?" I asked.
"Hmmm...This is the restaurant we're going to" He said.
Then showed me pictures of it thorough his phone.
My eyes almost popped out of their sockets at the sight.
"Are you fucking kidding me? I bet the food pill will cost my entire payment from my job" I said.
"You won't pay" He said chuckling.
I sighed heavily and shook my head.
"That's not necessary you know...This is so...Grande" I said trying to reason with him.
"Oh come on Porsche...It's just a dinner...Besides...I want to do this one for you so what's wrong with that?" He asked.
I sighed heavily.
"Let's just go ok?...This place is one of my favourites you'll definitely love it" He said.
Then we got off the car and walked into the house.
He led me to the oh so familiar tailor who always dressed me up for occasions and events when I was pretending to be blind.
It seems like the whole thing was ages ago...It's really strange.
"Oh...Mr Jom...You're here for another suit?" The tailor asked smiling.
He was a friendly older man who used to keep talking to me while busying himself with making me clothes.
I smiled awkwardly and waiied politely to him.
"My name is Porsche...Not Jom" I said smiling awkwardly.
The old man chuckled awkwardly and nodded.
"Well then...Mr Porsche...I think we have a lot to talk about" He said chuckling.
I smiled slightly and nodded.
"Try giving him a black suit" Kinn said.
The old man nodded and told me to follow him.
After sometime I walked out of the room wearing a black suit.
It wasn't the first time Kinn told someone to dress me up.
But it was weird because it was the first time without having to pretend I'm someone else.
It was still unnerving and I found myself missing my shades because at least then I could pretend I wasn't aware of Kinn's staring.
I cleared my throat to get his attention.
"Hmmm...Black is really your color" He said chuckling.
I pursed my lips into a thin line and nodded awkwardly.
He suddenly put one of his hands over my eyes causing me to frown in confusion.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"You're still you...The only difference is that you're showing me your real self...But if you feel awkward without pretending then just go back to that time...I won't mind" He said.
I took his hand and removed it away from my eyes.
I gulped down the lump in my throat and blinked twice as I kept my eyes fixed with his.
This time though I had the liberty of blinking.
So I turned my head to the side and looked at the floor instead.
"Let's just go" I said.
Then walked past him and sat down in the car.
I looked through the window as my thoughts wandered back to those days again...
The days when I felt uncomfortable while pretending to be someone else were all starting to come back to me.
Back then I wasn't even sure if I'll ever get back to using my given name again and that thought made me uncomfortable in my own skin to the point that I wanted to shout out the truth.
But now that I was finally back to being myself again...A part of me missed the days I spent here getting to know Kinn.
The day he discovered the truth...The day he stabbed me was all because of that unanswered question...
Who are you? Are you Jom? Or are you Porsche?
So...Maybe his behaviour was justified to some extent...
I was snapped out of my thoughts when Kinn put his hand on my shoulder.
"What were you thinking?" He asked.
"Nothing" I said shrugging.
It's better to keep those weird thoughts to myself anyway...I mean...Everything was starting to get better...Who am I to ruin that?
I leaned my head back and closed my eyes.
Kinn gently pulled my head to rest on his shoulder causing me to smile slightly but still didn't open my eyes.
I was feeling lazy and comfortable...The calming expensive perfume he uses was really getting to me and lulling me to sleep.
That and his hand which was playing with my hair along with the tiredness from today's competitions were the perfect drowsiness recipe.
