“Guess what? I have convinced Sister Hannah to convince Father to call Irvin here to ask him about the doctor he took you to.” Abel proudly informed Zadkiel who was busy throwing the ball at the wall and then catching it when it bounced back.

“You’re wasting time and energy. Irvin doesn’t care now.” Zadkiel murmured and didn’t even try to tell Abel that Irvin never took him to any doctor. They never had a conversation about him after that night because then Zadkiel almost tried to kill Mark in his office and Abel witnessed it.

“Well, talk to him one last time.” Abel insisted.

Zadkiel didn’t answer and kept playing with the ball. He had shed his fair share of tears over it. He wasn’t going to even try now. He wouldn’t. If Irvin didn’t want him, he didn’t want Irvin as well. What’s the worst gonna happen? Irvin said he’d die? Well, he was already dying. Just that he thought he’d spend the last of his days with Irvin and that’s the only thing that kept making him sad from time to time but then he got over it too. The screams and wailing sounds inside him stopped after a few days. It was like his demonic side was angry with him.

“Zadkiel… I’m wasting my energy here to talk to you!” Abel stood before him. Zadkiel changed the surface from wall to floor to bounce the ball.

“I’m listening.” He mumbled, still not looking at Abel.

“You know what? I’m done trying to convince you. After all, this is your fight. You should be the one to take a stand for yourself. I’m not taking part in any of this.” Abel rambled. In his head, Zadkiel thought he never asked but he didn’t voice it considering he would sound too ungrateful.

“Okay.” Zadkiel uttered. Abel huffed and it ticked off Zadkiel.

“I don’t know what is your prob-” Zadkiel stood up abruptly, making Abel swallow his next words. Zadkiel sat back down without saying a word and started bouncing off the ball again.

“What was that?” Abel asked shocked to see Zadkiel literally glitch like a robot before functioning again.

“He’s here,” Zadkiel answered with no interest in his voice.

“And you’re sitting here, doing exactly what?” Abel taunted.

“Ignoring him,” Zadkiel replied and lied back on the bed. Abel rolled his eyes but didn’t argue about it.

“And if he’s here to take you with him, will you go?” Abel questioned, opening the book, not reading it but just flicking through the pages.

“Well, I don’t know.” Zadkiel shrugged. “There’s more to think about before making this decision.” Zadkiel tried to make him understand but this time Abel hit his head hard with the book in his hand.

“You don’t get to hold yourself back for me this time.” Abel glared at him.

“I get to do whate-” Zadkiel stopped himself and turned around. “It’s very ill-mannered of you to pry into someone’s privacy, Alpha.” He spoke without even spotting Irvin. Irvin revealed himself from behind the doorframe of the hall and stepped in with a bird caught in an act, expression. A man followed behind him, eyes on Abel.

“I wasn’t prying. I was just going to enter.” Irvin denied the fact that he was actually eavesdropping.

“Is this the one?” Irvin turned to Sean beside him who was still staring at Abel. Sean gave a nod.

“Uh?” Zadkiel raised his eyebrow but Irvin ignored him and stared at Sean as if talking to him through eyes.

“But he’s a human!” Sean spoke, huffing and sat on the bed. Abel instantly understood who he meant by a human because he was the only human in the hall.

“Excuse me, Mr Demigod. Sorry to offend you but this earth was made for humans. If you have any problem, you can fly back to whatever the cloud you live on.” Abel scoffed at him, sending daggers through his eyes.

“What do you mean, Demigod?! I’m human and I live on earth.” Sean argued back. Abel huffed loudly. He didn’t know what about this man was making him irritated.

“Who are you trying to hide from? I know that you and this guy Irvin has some kind of superhuman powers.” Abel flopped on the opposite bed, looking away from Sean.

“You told him?” Irvin questioned in shock. Zadkiel shrugged not thinking it was a big deal.

“Zadkiel, you mad?!” Irvin hissed, holding him by his shoulders. “We don’t tell that to anyone. Do you know what would happen if these words get out? They gonna hunt us down and kill us after tearing us apart to study because human nature is to omit the threat before it becomes a threat!” Irvin panicked. Zadkiel remained unfazed. He shrugged off Irvin’s hand and then grabbed his chin between his forefinger and thumb and turned his face to Abel who was picking his nails.

“Do you think he can even hurt a fly’s feelings, let alone kill one?” Zadkiel questioned. Abel made an offended face. Irvin flicked his gaze to Abel and scanned him from head to toe. He puckered his lips and shook his head.

“Nope.” He said popping the ‘p' sound.

“Hey!” Abel was definitely offended now but of course, they ignored him.

“Why are you here?” Zadkiel questioned, maintaining a good distance between him and Irvin.

“To ask you one last time if you’ve changed your decision?” Irvin came directly to the point but Zadkiel didn’t even get a chance to speak before Abel opened his big gorilla type mouth.

“He has. He is going with you. His bag is under that bed and…” He walked to the coat rack and unhooked one of the coats “here’s his coat.” He pushed the coat in Zadkiel’s hand. “Goodbye, Zadkiel.” He smiled at him and gave him a loud, sloppy kiss on the cheek.

“Hey!” Zadkiel, Irvin and Sean said at the same time. Zadkiel’s cheeks tinted to the shade of pink when he realized that Irvin took part in the protest as well but then frowned when remembered that Sean voice also harmonized with their voices.

“What was your reason?” Zadkiel cocked an eyebrow at Sean who puckered his lips, refused to answer.

“We’ll explain that to you later. First of all, tell me something.” Irvin dismissed the Sean topic.

“What?” Zadkiel suddenly realized he was mad at Irvin and was ignoring him. He folded his arms on his chest and chinned up to show that he was still not over the fact that Irvin hung up on him.

“I can’t leave Abel behind.”
