Chapter 350: 350
I looked around once more but even Kaley’s family weren’t here. Lois, Mikhail, and Vera weren’t here as well. Well, a few of my people came to meet us this time but the ones that were here besides Oscar were Chris, Charlotte, Unc Zardon, and Rin. A few of my workers were there too to help with the luggage.
“Oh, that. Zeus is at Matthew’s house.” Oscar said while glancing at Cynthia who’s behind Kaley.
“Dad’s house? Why?” Kaley asked.
“Well, your little sister Olivia joined the kids in the covered court a few days ago with Lois. She thought she had it but… she didn’t have it. Sprained her ankle bad and I told her not to move it for a few days. Lois and Zeus are with her to keep her company. Well, Matthew is there too to guard the two while Marisha is there to guard her husband. Heh.” Oscar chuckled.
“Haa~ why did she get injured from playing with the kids? What the heck are they doing there?” Kaley said, shaking her head.
“Hah! If you see those kids you’ll be surprised I tell ya. I can’t even chase one of those little f.u.c.kers. By the way, I see you’ve made a little substitution here. Alexei called telling Vera they would stay there for a while but he didn’t tell me you’re coming with another lady. Hello, my name is Oscar young lass.” Oscar grumbled when talking about the kids but he politely introduced himself to Cynthia.
“Hi, I’m Cynthia nice to meet you.” Cynthia made a little bow.
“What is that you’re carrying?” Oscar asked.
I just noticed that Cynthia was carrying something with her hands. I was something long covered with a velvet cloth. It’s almost the same length as Tatiana’s bastard sword but it was much thinner and around the handle was rounder.
“Oh, my brother gave it to me before I was sent here. It’s a rapier.” Cynthia replied.
“Ah, your brother? Why did he send you here?” Oscar asked but Cynthia hesitated to answer.
“Old man, save the questions for later. Let’s just say we have a new capable survivor joining our fold.” I replied.
“Okay then, the others are still doing their runs but they will soon come later. We need to talk about a few things when they arrive. Something just came up.” Oscar said.
“Hmm? What came up?” I asked.
“We found the church where those f.u.c.k.i.n.g cultists’ ‘father’ was. Oh boy, you have got to see what Darelle recorded.” Oscar said with a grim tone.
Kaley, Tatiana, Jared, and I’s expressions changed when we heard the news and only Cynthia didn’t know anything about it.
“They made progress eh? How many are they? How far did they manage to sneak in?” I asked.
“You would be f.u.c.k.i.n.g surprised. We’ll talk about it later in the meeting.” Oscar gave a solemn expression. I looked at the others and they probably saw what Oscar was talking about.
I just stared at him for a while then the guys helped us unload the S-76. Oscar sniffed out the Jose Cuervo 250 Anniversario bottle and almost took a sip but I stole it away from him. However, He was delighted by the guns we brought but he was shocked when he learned that it was all Cynthia’s guns. He gave Cynthia a suspicious but an approving look and I was surprised he threw me the keys for the Charger. The moment we headed down the building, I was shaking my head in amus.e.m.e.nt.
Oscar snagged himself a Harley Davidson Road King.
“Hah! See this kid?! I’m sure you’re dying of jealousy right now you little shit! Lo and-” I immediately cut him off.
“It’s cool but my Hayabusa is faster. Are you gonna make a biker gang old man? Hah! You need to bag a few more Harleys!” I chuckled.
“KID?! THIS IS A MOTHERF.U.C.K.I.N.G HARLEY YOU LITTLE SHIT! I DON’T GIVE A FLYING F.U.C.K IF YOUR HAYABUSA IS FASTER!!!” Oscar bellowed.
“Yeah, just say it to make yourself feel better… Hahaha!” Oscar threw me his helmet but I caught it. I laid it on the ground so he had to walk back to pick it up.
“F.u.c.k.i.n.g little shit making my blood pressure go haywire the moment he reached this f.u.c.k.i.n.g place!” Oscar grumbled but we drove back not waiting for the luggage to be hauled on the truck. Jared managed to grab onto him so he could rest back home early.
Cynthia was looking around curiously while Rin and Tatiana were already gone.
“You have a whole street to yourselves? How far does it go? A little more than that school?” Cynthia was shocked.
“Well, more than that. I’ll give you a tour after we settled down. This place is just the extensions from our main compound. I’ll introduce you to everybody later. C’mon, get in the car.” I said.
Cynthia rode in the back while Kaley rode shotgun. Chris and Charlotte squeezed at the back and they introduced themselves to Cynthia.
“Hello, my name’s Chris. This is Charlotte. She’s crazy sometimes but she’s really kind.” Chris said and Charlotte went crazy.
“Umm, h-hi. My name’s Cynthia. Nice to meet you two.” Cynthia replied.
“You’re really pretty. Your hair is beautiful too! You have thick strands, unlike mine.” Charlotte complimented Cynthia and Chris nodded.
“Oh… thank you… you’re pretty too and your hair looks great styled like that.” Cynthia got embarrassed when she got praised.
The three were conversing with each other while I was driving my Charger back home. Cynthia was still getting used to the warm welcome by the two and Kaley was just smiling while watching them. Cynthia’s eyes were looking around and it seemed like this was the first time she managed to get out of their place in Batangas.
“Alright, here we are.” I said as we drove inside my compound.
Cynthia was once again surprised by the warm welcome she received from everybody inside. The kids approached her and Aya immediately began conversing with her. Mikhail, Bing, and Russel were getting climbed over by the other kids and a few from Woodlands were also present inside.
“Woof! Woof! Woof!” I heard behind me.
I saw Zeus already in his jumping motion and I caught him. His tail was wagging so hard and he started licking my face. I was carrying him and Kaley helped me introduce Cynthia to everyone who came.
After that, Lois came pushing Olivia in a wheelchair and Olivia was wearing an annoyed look. A few moments later, Matthew came in while carrying his Remington 870 and his eyes were sharp and directed to Lois. However, his eyes relaxed when he saw me and Kaley then Marisha followed him right after.
“What happened to you?” Kaley teased Olivia with a smirk.
“Shut up!” Olivia exclaimed.
“Don’t you remember Rule #18? Limber up?” Kaley chuckled.
“What?” Olivia was confused.
“I love you.” I muttered subconsciously to Kaley and she smiled brightly before laughing hard with everyone from my dumb look.
Matthew and I just met eyes and we nodded at each other while Marisha started a small conversation with Cynthia and Aya.
I noticed that not everybody was present yet and I surmised that they were either in a run or doing their jobs because it was still a few hours before sunset.
The truck followed after us and I grabbed the cases which contained Cynthia’s guns.
“Cynthia, come with us for a sec. We’ll take you to your room first and I’ll tell you where to place your guns.” I snagged her from everyone that was striking a conversation with her. Their eyes widened when they discovered that Olivia brought a few guns of her own.
“O-Okay… sorry, I’ll be back in a minute…” Cynthia said to the group.
Kaley and I guided her to our room and Kaley opened my armory. I placed her cases down and she was surprised by the guns perfectly placed next to each other.
“We’re just gonna place your guns here for the moment for safety. If I managed to get a safe for these, I would place that in your room with your guns. Tatiana’s case is here too though but just tell me or Kaley if you want to use them, okay?” I explained.
“Okay, is this where I’m staying at as well?” Cynthia asked.
“Oh, you’ll be in the next room after Tatiana and Rin’s room. I haven’t introduced you two yet but the lady with the parted hair and glasses is Rin. She’s Tatiana’s… you know.” I replied while giving her a look.
“Oh… I see.” Cynthia nodded.
“Where are those two? I saw them walking back earlier than everyone.” Kaley said.
“Are they here already?” Cynthia asked.
“Let’s check.” I replied.
I was about to turn the doorknob to their room but I stopped myself. I silently leaned my ear against their door and what I heard from the other side was enough.
I just gave Kaley and Cynthia a look and they blushed faintly.
I opened the door to the third room and I laid her bags down. Cynthia went inside with Kaley then Cynthia looked around at her new room for herself.
“Okay, There’s the bed over there. The AC could be turned on anytime you want but don’t forget to turn it off when you go out. The outlets are located on that, that, that, and that place and you could place anything in the cabinets here and on those shelves. If there’s anything you want that isn’t here, just tell me and I’ll see what I could do. The bathrooms are on each floor and they’re always by the stairs. Oh! We always have movie nights and it would greatly help me if you could choose something quickly. These guys took forever just to choose one and when I decided to choose something and it turned to be bad, I always get burned.” I said, smiling.
Cynthia let out a faint smile before hugging me and Kaley. Kaley and I looked at each other because Cynthia’s face was buried between us. I slowly patted her back before we heard a small sob. Her arms were tightly gripping our clothes and her face was sour.
“Cynthia… are you okay?” Kaley asked.
“N-Nothing… I’m just a bit overwhelmed by this place… it’s really… different. I’m kinda sad but I’m kinda happy too…” Cynthia’s eyes were red.
“Woof!” Zeus barked. He followed us.
Zeus tried jumping over to Cynthia so she could catch him but they fell on the floor. Zeus started giving her kisses and Cynthia’s expression turned for the better when she hugged Zeus.
“Well, kinda late to say this but welcome to your new home. You’ll like it here, I promise.” I said to Cynthia.
