Love is War

Chapter 82

So, I have these problems in my life where I just wanted to punch anybody whenever I am pissed.

I threw my punch towards these training dummy in front of me as hard as I can. What made me so pissed right now? Well, dad informed me that I should go to my wretched sister’s birthday next two weeks. Knowing my sister, she wants her birthday to be grand.

I told my dad that I don’t want to go, but he threatened me that if I will not go, then he will forbid me to participate in missions. I am so frustrated when dad gave me no choice that is why I am here in my training room with Alexis.

“That Shane,” I said and that’s what I am doing right now, I am imagining that the dummy in front of me is Shane, and I am doing my very best to pummel her imaginary face to death, and that’s how much I hate her.

“I think you need to calm down,” Alexis remarked as I pummel this training dummy down while she watches me at a distance.

“How can I calm down? If I will see her annoying face for a whole day, you know how irritated I can get just by looking at her for a single second,” I reminded her.

“Close your eyes all day, or stay here and resist on not being given missions by your father,” she suggested.

“You are really helping me here,” I remarked sarcastically.

“I know,” she told me in a same manner.

“You know what,” I looked at her but I realized that prolonging this conversation, will not make any sense at all, as I said, I don’t have a choice, like for real. That will be a formal party where everyone will wear gowns and other fancy stuffs.

Dad, also bookmarked a stylist that will decide what I am gonna wear. There are times that I think, dad’s love for his children is overrated.

I don’t know how Shane begged dad for this... just thinking it is giving me a serious headache, I really don’t want to think about it anymore.

Well, I think that staying here, playing with Anonymous, is much preferred by me. Speaking of which, I can’t remember what’s his name is. He is calling me Lyn, which reason, he explained to me.

Oh, I remember that he added me on a social media account. I pulled my phone from my pocket and opened it to look up for his name using that social media app. I scrolled down until I see his face smiling towards the camera.

Just like me, only his first name is displayed on his profile picture. Well, unlike me that there is a reason behind why I hide my last name, this kind of naming in social media community is a trend towards my peers.

So no suspicions, maybe he is the one that just gets in with the trend or just too ashamed of how cringy his last name sounds.

No judgements here. White flag raised.

So, Reikou huh, a Japanese name and just by looking at his face, he has these Asian features that I quickly noticed on his face. His short eyes that we can really see with Asians and the others, you know it already.

Back on what I am saying, I hate my sister!

And then with the last fist that I threw towards the training dummy, it was knocked down and I am surprised to see it destroyed.

“Sometimes I am afraid how you can transfer your anger with your sister into your strength,” and there she goes again with her comments.

“Now you see, how angry I am towards her,” I told her.

“Yea,” she cheaply replied to me.

“What’s your plan?” she asked me and I looked at her in disbelief.

“It’s obvious, I’ll do what dad wishes, I don’t want to feel like that I am exiled in the gang,” I answered her.

“That’s a wise decision,” she replied. “Should I bring an eye cover to not see your sister for the whole day?” she asked me.

“If only I can wear that in the middle of a crowd,” I told her.

“Why not?” she asked. “Why will they care? Wait... the right question is why will you care?” she asked.

“Dad, will be angry towards me,” I told her.

“Pshh, did he say about anything not bringing an eye cover?” she asks me again.

“Nothing,” I said with uncertainty.

“Then, it’s worth trying right?” she asked again, persuading me to go with her suggestion. I know that she is trying me right now, and I will not bite the bait that she has shown to me. I am not that dumb of a person.

“Just shut up,” I told her annoyed with the silliness that she is showing to me right now. Then I heard a soft chuckle from her.

“Ha ha, funny,” I told her then I went towards multiple training dummies, punching them as hard as I can along the way. Throwing combos at them because I am also treating these like my training.

After I recovered from my injuries I quickly came back here to train, and improved myself. Right now, I need to focus, I need to be faster, faster than a bullet. I do not know if it is possible to be faster than bullets.

Now, I think I need to calm down from these worries in life because it will be on the next two weeks and in my perspective, that’s too long, yet my dad is preparing all the things right now that will be used in Shane’s birthday.

What a brat, right?

I just shook my head from thought of and I just resume my training and continue on punching these training dummies in front of me. They went down just like the other ones that I just punched and you know what it seems like that this is very effective.

I mean thinking that these dummies are my sister.

I laughed from the thought, dummy, my sister. HAHA, really suits her well.

I just continue to punch these training dummies until I feel satisfied with myself. This is the most effective way to release my frustration if I don’t want to hurt someone except for my enemies. That is why, I don’t want to get banned from getting any missions.

That is the worst thing that could happen to me, for real!

My whole body is now drenched with sweat and I now decided to take a break from my training session and I grabbed my towel and wiped the sweat on my body. I grabbed the water bottle on the chair and I quickly opened it and took a sip on it. The cold water touching my throat almost feels like heaven to me.

“That was the best drink that I ever had in my life!” I exclaimed, but that was just a figure speech of mine because I was really thirsty. I gulped it down and water came gushing on my throat and that really quenched my thirst and it is very pleasant.

I went besides Alexis who is just staring at the nothingness that I cannot comprehend, the usual Alexis. Well, talking to her will not make any sense at all.

I just did what she is doing right now, just staring at the nothingness of the gym. I let myself space out for a second and I need to admit that this calms my mind.

My mind is filled with nothing but air, and through that I can just sit and relax here without thinking any problems.

After moments of thinking nothing, I snapped out from it and realized that Alexis is already gone in my side maybe the fatigue made me not realize it.

But thanks to that I cannot feel the fatigue so much anymore and I have the strength again to punch training dummies in this training room but before I proceed with that, I checked the time on my phone, and when I saw that it is almost night.

I remembered that I promised to play with Reikou again, if I remember his name correctly.

It’s time to go and I really need to take a shower because the sweat in my body is starting to get sticky and it is a disgusting feeling.

After that I went straight to my room and I did not bother to look for Alexis anymore, I mean she is already a grown-up woman and I am very sure that she can take care of herself.

Not time to relax through a game, maybe this time, I will invite him to play a fighting game with me.
