[I ask you one last time, don't blame me if something happened. You will regret ever been born]

It wasn't Das asking what to speak; it was Andrew himself speaking on his behalf. Das was amazed by Andrew. He had no idea Andrew could speak such words.

[Damn! You are scaring me, Andrew. I wonder what your boss thinks about that. Wait, do you even know what your boss looks like?]

[Don't divert the topic]

[Okay, then. How about we make a deal? If you do what I want, I will give you everything back that is yours]

[What type of deal?]

[Bring down and destroy 'Ryle' company. They are at the top fourth right now, and they have signed a huge contract recently. If it passes, they will no doubt become the top]

[What are you trying to say?] 

[Hunt them down. They are a threat to me. Destroy them!]

Das' face showed pure rage.

After clenching his fists, Das typed, "Say no."

[Heh! Knew it! Well, I don't care anyway. I have my four spies there. The 'Ryle' company will be down by evening, just like yours] saying that, the call ended.

After a minute of silence that looked like eternity, Das sighed again, but this time he let out a voice too.

Elena was shocked by the sudden voice and glanced at him.

Das noticed Elena's glance and looked at her.

They both stared at each other. Elena was afraid to speak anything.

"What's wrong? Bored already?" Das asked.

Seeing how carefree Das acted, Elena sighed in relief, thinking the tension she felt earlier was just her imagination.

"Nothing," Elena said as she fixed herself on the chair and said, "Are you busy?" 

"Not really. What's wrong?" Das was trying to act as cool as he could and not show his anger in front of Elena.

"Nothing really, it's just it's so quiet here," Elena replied.

"That's true." He then pointed his gaze at Elena's tablet and said, "How much more time would you need to read thirty pages?"

Elena turned the tablet towards Das and said, "I am still on the eighth page."

"Wow, you are slow."

Elena did notice Das was acting strange, or rather he was not acting as he always did.

Usually, at this point, Das would have called Elena an idiot over dozens of times, and Elena was also expecting to be called an idiot at least once.

She looked at Das, who was now focused on his laptop.

Elena shook her head and started doing what she was doing.

Das was gritting his teeth so hard it started making noises.

Das took a deep breath and let out a sigh as he typed, "Don't worry, we will be back to our usual spot by tonight."

[What do you mean, Sir? We rejected their offer, so how--]

Das ignored Andrew and typed, "Just keep an eye on the stocks of the 'Ryle' company. Call me immediately if they go down by more than one percent."

[Alright, Sir]

Das hung up the call after that. He closed the lid of his laptop and packed his bag.

Elena was confused and kept looking at him with wide eyes.

"Where are you going?" She asked.

"I have something to do,"

"When will you be back?" she asked.

"Not sure. You should go straight home too."

Elena made an 'O' with her lips as she stared at Das.

"Hmm," She then raised her eyebrows and said, "I will wait for you here. So come back quickly."

"Why? Just go home."

"I want to study."

"You can also study at home."

Elena shook her head and said, "I can't."

"What do you mean by 'I can't'? Stop being so childish." Das was unknowingly being rude to Elena. Though, he had not realized it yet. He was trying to send Elena home because of the incident that happened just the other day.

He was just worried about her. He was afraid that something like yesterday might happen with Elena too. Even though those students were arrested, there was no guarantee there wouldn't be more like them.

"I tried studying at home, but I just can't concentrate," Elena said as she looked down at her feet.

"Is it because of the games?" Das knew there would be only one reason.

Elena nodded.

"Then studying in some other room. Like in the living room?" Das suggested.

"We have our T.V there."

"Then...uh…. Don't you have something like a study room?" Das was out of suggestions.

Elena shook her head and said, "I don't."

Das was annoyed at this point, not because of Elena's answer, but he was annoyed at the circ.u.mstances.

Das wanted to spend more time with Elena. He wanted to be with Elena.

There were about five days left for their final examination of the semester, and Das had no idea whether he would get to tutor Elena after that or not. He was also clueless on whether Elena would pass and advance the semester, or fail and expelled.

Das was afraid that if Elena passed and advance the semester, Elena would stop talking to him, and they would get distant. He was afraid of losing Elena.

So the time he had now with Elena was very precious to him, yet that person ruined it.

Das rage was undefinable right now.

It was still a miracle that he could endure his anger just because Elena was with him.

"I will wait for you, so please come back as soon as possible," Elena said.

Das didn't know what to say in reply as he had no idea how much time it would take for him to come back.

"You will come back, right?" Elena asked with complete trust in her eyes.

Das was weak against that. He gave in and said, "Fine."

He handed his bag to Elena and said, "I will be back, so take care of my bag."

Elena smiled widely and nodded as she said, "Okay."

Das walked out of the door but came back a second later and said, "Don't you dare open my bag."
