Capítulo 1
"So?" She asks dryly rolling her eyes uninterested in the topic, a culinary orchestra fills in the air, the voice of people taking their orders and the giggles of the teens clicking selfies at the next table. Taking the container of the chili paste, she pushes the whole portion onto her plate, the color of the noodles turns red when she mixes the spicy paste, swirling it around her fork; she puts it in her mouth, and looks straight at him again, who was observing her movements.
"Aiden I...'
"Sure," she cuts him off chewing onto the food in her mouth, those eyes making him gulp down his saliva. Curling in his lips, he looks around awkwardly and back at her, his voice never coming out loud "I didn't even ask you anything," he blurts, leaning forward.
"You have no need of giving a lengthy explanation," placing the fork on the surface of the plate, she clasps her hands resting the elbow on the table, those narrow brown eyes never leaving him "Let's break up as you wish," shrugging her shoulders she gets back to continue her meal while he looks at her surprised even though that he expected this is how she will react.
"I know that our relationship was not strong from the beginning," she speaks after a moment of silence "After all, I'm not blind to not know about your little puppy," she scoffs taking a sip of water from thee glass she faces him again and this time he is astonished unknown of her information, licking her lips she passes him a glance and back at her plate "All those explanation of me having no time to spend with you is just an excuse," the right corner of her lip twitches up as her brain flashes the day of their first blind date arranged by his mother and hers as they are friends "But it's true," chuckling softly she leans back at the chair resting her shoulders to the head adjusting the collar of her black shirt underneath the leather coat "It's true though, I don't like wasting time on rubbish," moving her head to the left and right she gets back to eat when Mike stands up from his seat furiously, neither of his murmurs of curse under his breath affected her.
Taking his phone from the table he steps aside not passing a glimpse at Aiden "Mike," she calls out sweetly as she used to and the way he liked his name rolling down her tongue, turning around immediately he faces her in the thought of her asking him to explain more, asking him to stay, saying that they have been good together "Yeah," his voice comes out softly.
Moving her gaze from the table she looks up at him "Pay the bill for your dishes," her lips spread to a smile "Goodbye," she waves at him ignore his act of stamping on the floor.
The fork gets into the rolled red spaghetti when his footsteps fade in her ears, letting out a sigh she gulps down the whole glass of Americano. The glass door of the restaurant opens making the crowd gasp and scream, people gather rushing to the door, all their movements stop when a person drags another man in his hold along with another two men wearing masks. The crowd gathers around the three of them finding any chance to get towards the door as the two masked fellow orders them to stay in with the gun.
BOOM!
The loud screams turn to gasps and muffles when he shoots a corner where no one is standing, making the crowd to gather around with no space between them, while Aiden stands there behind her chair her eyeballs moving to the left and right examining the surrounding, crossing her arms over her chest she stays still away from the crowd where only a few people of four are beside her.
'Give me the pen drive," the masked man who is holding the old man in hostage orders his eyes watching around.
'Give me the fucking pen drive if you want your dad alive," his rough voice is loud enough to bang on each and everyone's ears present in the room ' Step forward you bastard!," the other man by his side yells, those thick eyebrows furrowed, his eyes blood shot red, gripping onto the pistol tighter he lifts it pointing to a random person in the crowd aiming at his leg without even looking at him 'Don't test my patience," his stern cold voice alerts everyone, the victim at the aim shivers while his heart pounds and he didn't dare to make a move. The abnormal silence makes everything audible, where his index finger is placed onto the trigger, his furious nerves anxious to pull. Just in the second before he pulls the trigger a person in the crowd steps forward, his fingers brushes over his ear when he removes the elastic of the mask which he was wearing, Aiden's eyes are glued on his back as he stands in front of her view, the crowd begins to export whispers and gasps when he tosses the mask on the table, the popular idol in their view.
'Let him go and I'll hand over the pen drive," keeping a step forward he inserts his hand into his pocket 'And everyone in here should leave out safe," he states his voice low making sure that the calmness is maintained. Passing a glance to his dad who is worried more than terrified he blinks his in assurance, pulling out the pen drive from the pocket he holds it straight in the air showing by them 'Let him and the others go," his words come out low yet stern 'I'll handover the pen drive," standing straight he waits till they make a move as told, the right corner the of his lips slightly twitches up noticing the hold around his father's neck loosen. Leaving Mr. Mintz to step aside they march forward towards Riley who stays still by holding the needed object, his sight shifting from right to left watching them. The surrounding suddenly fills with the sound of footsteps and slight screams of people rushing out.
'You sure have the gut to surrender alone," one of the men scoffs jumping forward he kicks on Riley's stomach taking him off guard which makes him to fall on his knees, burying the pen drive in his palm he looks up ready to take the beat. Mr. Mintz rushes to his son, his weak eyes welled up with tears not bearing to watch him being hurt 'Give it to them," he orders holding Riley's arm helping him to get back to his feet 'Take the pen drive and kill them," the announcement makes them active, dragging his father behind him, he steps forward covering up his fear with bravery. Before he could make his imaginary action his legs wobble backwards when the foot comes in contact to us stomach once again.
'Trying to be a hero," the guy in front of him laughs 'One of us is enough to beat his a..," he stops when the scream gets into his ears before he could complete his sentence with the double 's', their eyes widen in surprise when they turn to their right catching the scene. One of them lies down holding his stomach with one and covering his nose with the other 'Help me," he begs watching his mate, he removes his hand from his face his bleeding nose comes to their view. From him their gaze moves up to the person who breaks her out knuckles chewing onto her inner, inserting her hands into her black jeans pockets she looks straight at them and at Riley who stares at her with his eyes wide open in surprise with the expression of what-is-going-on.
'You've brought a girl to help," the guy sneers stepping away from Riley letting the other guy take care of him.
Waiting till the guy arrives the spot she marked, Aiden picks up the plate from the table beside her, hopping forward she throws the plate at him, the broken ceramic cuts through his skin in some places, the half-eaten spicy cheese spaghetti staining his clothes, gritting his teeth he steps forward his hands formed into fist his elbow hits through the air backwards coming forward forcefully, a loud yelp leaves his lips when her ankle meets the side of his neck, his body stiffens when pain shoots through the neck making him to fall over the ground, heavy eyelids ready to bring him darkness. Picking up the tissue from the table Aiden wipes the sauce in her hand laying her gaze on the man in front of Riley, his eyes widened in astonishment, wiping off the sweat beads formed on his forehead he removes his gaze from her and looks down at Riley who is completely taken back of the scene happening in front of him, from his face he looks down at his hand in which the pen drive was held, the corners of his lips twitches up slightly noticing that his grip is loosened without his realization taking Riley's and his father's absent mind as an advantage he snatches the device with in a second turning around he runs to the door.
'Get him," Riley shouts almost for himself, getting up instantly he chases after the man, the noise of the cop siren makes them to stop in their tracks, walking ahead he takes the main source of evidence from him when the cop barge in cuffing him.
'Many incidents took place before your arrival," he chuckles when the cops look around at the mess curiously.
'When did you inform them?" Mr. Mintz questions walking towards Riley, his dry voice clearly showing that he is exhausted.
'When they entered with you?" he answers rubbing the back of his neck 'Hey, you……," before he completes his sentence Aiden walks out.
