Chapter Two

"I'll have The Manhattan," Kairos said.

"Coming right up," August replied.

"So you do work here?" Kairos exclaimed.

"And what if I do?" August rolled his eyes.

"You? A bartender?" Kairos mocked him.

"It pays a lot of money though," August said.

"Is this your only job?" Kairos asked.

"Of course not. I am a journalist, a freelance writer and I have a blog," August answered.

"So you basically just write or make drinks?" Kairos said.

"Yeah. So what's your job?" August said.

"I work at Lovelix," Kairos announced.

"The modeling company? I haven't seen you in a magazine though," August wondered.

"Of course I don't model. Dumbäss," Kairos snarled.

"So you work in an office job? You?" August mocked.

"Are you mocking me?!" Kairos growled.

"You did it first," August stated.

"Whatever," Kairos rolled his eyes.

Kairos sat down properly and watched August worked. He was surprised at how meticulous August works.

Suddenly, August disappeared and Kairos saw him go through the exit. He unconsciously followed August without even knowing why.

August started to walk faster and so did Kairos. After a while, August just stopped walking altogether. Kairos approached him to ask why.

"Hey, why'd you stop-"

August took out his taser and electrocuted Kairos out of reflex and when he realized that it was Kairos.

"Kairos you idiot," August growled.

August had no choice but to bring him home since it's the middle of the night and he didn't know the address of Kairos.

Kairos woke up in a couch and it definitely was not his apartment. And for some reason, his abdomen hurts.

"You finally wake up. Get out of my apartment. I have an appointment today," August said.

Kairos quickly sat up and looked at himself.

"What happened last night?" Kairos asked.

"I don't know. But tell me why I found your ãss passed out at the front of my door. Don't tell me you were following me," August lied.

"What? No! I never followed you," Kairos exclaimed.

"Really? Then why were you-"

"Alright. I'll make it up to you. But it doesn't mean I followed you," Kairos cut off August.

"Whatever. Just leave. I have to meet someone in two hours," August said.

Kairos checked his watch and was surprised.

"Shït! Me too," Kairos said.

"Then leave," August said.

"Can I borrow any of your clothes?" Kairos begged.

"I have no clothes your size," August said.

Kairos opened his phone and dialed someone. He talked for a minute and picked up his things.

"Anyways, thanks for letting me stay in your apartment," Kairos said.

"It's just basic human decency," August brushed it off.

"I will pay you back but for now I have to go. I promise I will. Dinner on me tonight," Kairos said.

"You don't even know my number-"

Kairos left hurriedly leaving August dazed.

"That bãstard. I better see him at the bar or I will hunt his ãss down," August shook his head.
