Chapter 176 - 176. Rest For Two Days

"Yes." Kizy said to not embarrass themselves any further.

The game went on a little longer before the dinner was served. The group of six had a hearty time, especially Kizy, who found how easygoing Lisa and Catherine were.

By the time they parted, Kizy had already befriended both of them, and was getting along pretty well with Felix and Lewis as well.

The group of six parted on the note to meet this way at least once in a month or two.

This way the five days holiday was soon over and work began on the 5th of january.

But the most unusual thing this time was the number of proposals that were lying on Markus's desk, that too from early morning itself.

Thus Markus, Kizy and Joel were busy as soon as they started their day.

*SOME UNKNOWN ISLAND*

"Great!" Professor exclaimed, excitement visible in his voice.

Aaron had fought the last man he had decided for Aaron's training, completing a month full of hellish fights and constantly winning them all.

Aaron laid there on the ground, breathless, closing his eyes and trying to calm himself down.

'Finally this one month training is over! I can finally breathe now.' Aaron said, hoping he won't be tortured this way again.

"Aaron I am proud of you man! You definitely are one of the strongest warriors I have ever seen." The Professor said, watching him with a smile.

Aaron, who had normalised his breathing by now, stood up, before facing Professor, waiting for his further instructions.

"You can rest for two days. We will be starting with our plan from the third day." Professor said, thinking about something.

"Okay." Aaron answered.

"Do you have any more doubts?" The Professor asked, standing from his chair, while six other men knelt beside him.

"When will we execute the plan?" Aaron asked, hoping that the planning would take some time, giving him some breather, some alone time for himself.

"This weekend." The professor replied, making Aaron stunned.

This weekend meant he only had four days in his hands. Which indicated that the professor already had made the plans, and he would have no say in it. Professor was giving him a two days holiday so that he would teach him the plan on the third day, giving him one more day to go through the plan on the fourth day. And finally the plan would be executed on the fifth day.

"Anything else Aaron?" The professor asked with a smile, his calm tone making Aaron creep out.

"No." Aaron immediately replied.

"I'll leave then. Enjoy your two days, but don't slack off too much from your training. Though they won't be training you for these two days, keep practicing on your own, as you will be going for a mission on the weekend itself." Professor said while pointing at the six men before leaving the room.

"You did well." One of the six men said.

"Thank you sir. Thank you for teaching me all this." Aaron genuinely thanked the men for teaching him for the first time.

For the past one month, he felt that this was no training, but some insane torture.

But today, when he had won over one of the powerful men from Professor's team, he could finally understand what this training had given him.

Thus instead of simply leaving or ignoring theseasters, he thanked them from the bottom of his heart. 

He had always dreamt to be powerful. Initially he wanted this power to avenge his late father.

But once Kizy entered his life, his goal changed. Though he still wanted to be powerful, he wanted that for Kizy. He wanted to protect her, to give her everything this world could present, and never let her feel sad or alone.

But all those goals were now meaningless. Kizy, his dreams, the future he planned were all in vain.

Now, he wanted to be powerful. But for the only reason of not getting tortured by Professor. He knew he couldn't escape.

Thus he had accepted this way of living. He just didn't want to get brutally punished or tortured for some stupid reasons. 

And the only way to do that was to become stronger and be trusted by the professor. Because going against the professor was the last thing he ever wanted to do. 

The Professor was the craziest human being, with no concern for human lives. He would kill as casually as one would have his meal. Thus Aaron only wanted to not land in the professor's bad book.

*WEEKEND MORNING, ALL STAR MALL, A CITY*

Kizy and Nina were already sitting inside a cafe, waiting for Joel to drop Ruth.

Kizy was wearing a sky blue floral knee length gown with white heels, while Nina was wearing an olive jumpsuit with white sneakers.

Nina always prefered dark, solid shades, similar to her introvert but mature personality. In fact this was the reason she and Kizy were friends.

Kizy, though the campus belle, was always alone due to her cold personality. She had strictly reprimanded a boy who confessed to her, saying that he should study and focus on his career instead of wasting time over things like love and relationships.

Thus no boy dared to approach her, while most girls felt envious about her. And that was when Nina and Kizy became friends.

Two lonely people, not wanting to make a lot of friends, but good at heart. What more could they expect from each other? 

"Shouldn't you be explaining something to me, Miss Moneybags?" Nina said, her expression showing that she won't spare Kizy if the answer wasn't convincing enough.

"Listen, I can explain. In fact there is more to it than what you know." Kizy said, trying to defend herself.

"And you are dead if your excuse is invalid." Nina said, giving a deathly glare after meeting her traitor friend.
