Chapter 3: CHAPTER THREE



Kei--> But what are apa__ apart___ments and how are We gonna find them in such a huge area with so many people around here?

Jackson--> It's pretty easy, we can search it online and if you are having trouble pronouncing it, then just call it a room.

Kei-->not surprised but confused; oh okay, a room but what are apartments?

Jackson-->wow, for real, you have gotta be kidding me; Didn't I tell you about it ?

Kei-->huh, no. You didn't told me about apartments only rooms.

Jackson-->okay my fault, sorry. Apartment is the place where many people live. Got it, I can't explain it any deeper. Hope that helps.

Kei-->okay. Amazed; You people have so many things to live in.

Jackson-->you don't have? Realises; oh wa....

Kei-->nah, looking at jackson with his bright eyes; I used to live in palace.

Jackson--> not surprised nor shocked but amazed by how calmly he said that; sure Princess, making fun of him hahaha.

Kei-->hey, pouting; I am a Commander and not a princess okay.

Jackson who couldn't stop laughing and kei who was pouting.

Now they went back to the hotel And jackson searched for some apartments which were cheaper And near to both; the cafe and the college. He did find Some of them and After visiting one or two of them.

Kei-->totally amazed; wow, so hard.

Jackson--> who is pretty tired; be quiet, Just be quiet. This place is really something. Like they don't even have rooms available for just two people. Like Is the population that high in today's time? We don't have this much population in my time.

Kei-->yeah, saying it like he understood what Jackson just said; I guess.

After trying hard for two more days they were able to find an apartment for them. But It was just one room for two people and it was really small but the rent was kinda Suitable.

Kei-->wow, It is my first time seeing such a small room.

Jackson-->who is pretty tired and somewhat angry; What are you getting so excited For? They don't even have any facilities available here like where is the refrigerator, the utensils, the TV? Can't they provide us all these things? We are giving them rent here, you know.

Kei--> still confused but not surprised; Don't tell me is something like this also different in your time?

Jackson--> yeah really different. Like if we are looking for an apartment or room in my time, they provide us all the facilities even though the rents are high but still They do provide all the facilities right there and here we have to pay for rent and have to buy our own things, for real bro. sighs heavily.

Kei--> oh, okay but no need to be so angry. We can just buy them from the shops right.

Jackson-->with wide eyes; and Where are you gonna get all that money from?

Kei-->saying it pretty casually; Aren't we working in a Cafe. You told me that they pay money too. So, it could be just fine right. Oh god, I hope i didn't say anything wrong.

Jackson-->sigh, idiot what did i put myself into but its not wrong either. With his deep voice; Yeah let's see how much we can manage.

Kei-->with a smile; Yeah, sure.

That day Jackson bought some necessary things (with his money, of his time) like refrigerator, utensils, bed, futon Etc. After that they both used to Save their money to pay the rent.

That night...

Kei-->wow, so many things. What are all these? What is this cold thing?

Jackson-->again with a deep sigh; see and listen carefully, this is TV on which you can watch anything, this is refrigerator in which you store food and this is a bed on which we're gonna sleep, got it. I told you about these things in the hotel as well, anything else you wanna know, Princess, laughing really hard.

Kei-->pouting; seriously God why is he like this? I know you told me about these things, but they were so different in the hotel and I didn't know why you need this many things to make yourself comfortable, huh?

Jackson--> I know, time changes everything. Things are very different in your time and in today's time.

Kei-->ohhh, got it.They ordered food.

Kei-->wow, a servant.

Jackson-->explaining; no, not a servant, a delivery man. Got it. Its their way of earning money.

Kei-->oh, got it. Thanks and feeling guilty; sorry for calling him a servant.

Jackson-->nah, its okay. Tell me what was he riding?

Kei-->huh, hmm, was he rinding a bi__bi__? Full of confusion; how these people memorize all these things. Let's leave it and eat the food.

Jackson-->giggling. After they were finished with their food and kitchen work; let's sleep it's already this late.

Kei-->huh, yeah. We are going to sleep on this soft thing, right.

Jackson-->hah, I told you this is a bed. Don't you have this thing in your time?

Kei--> We have but they are big and it is so small.

Jackson-->started to doze off, with his deep and sleepy voice; Are you showing off or what?

Kei-->No, I am not. I am just telling you, being as a Commander we were just happy to have a blink of an eye but the higher levels had these things and we people used to sleep on land or in tents.

Jackson-->hardly keeping his eyes open; wow, I don't even wanna go to a place like that. Now come let's sleep yawn we have to be up early tomorrow.

Kei-->yes, good night and sweet dreams Jackson.

Jackson was already asleep. Next morning kei woke up early and jackson was still sleeping.

Kei-->oh, he is still asleep. I shouldn't wake him up, right. Should I make something before he wakes up? goes to Kitchen and realizes that he don't know anything related to it.

Now what Should I make ?

Jackson wakes up

Jackson-->hmm, where is he? Is he In the kitchen? Goes to the kitchen; What are you doing here?

Kei-->oh, I thought I should make something for us.

Jackson-->ha! Do you even know how to operate it. Move aside and watch carefully for how I cook. Tonight you will be the one making dinner.

Kei-->happily; ok sure.

And after that breakfast was made by Jackson and Dinner was prepared by Kei And meanwhile they made really good and trustworthy friends in college and had good reputation in cafe as well.

One day at night almost around 12'o clock Jackson got an unknown call. First he ignored it Thinking it was a spam But after it went on for a while he picked it up And To his surprise it was his [step] mother (His real mother was murdered on the mission back when he was just four months old. His father remarried, so that Jackson could never find out the truth.

Jackson-->went outside, in the garden, with a voice full of happiness; hello! Mamma, is that you?

J's mother-->yes, my son it's me, your mother.

Jackson-->who couldn't control his happiness; but how are you able to contact me? We are in different time zones and by the way how are yo_____

J's mother--> oh!! My baby boy listen-listen, I am all fine and don't forget we are technically advanced people. Of course, I can contact you anytime and anywhere in the time zone.

Jackson-->happily yes, so how can I get back to my time. Can you send me a time mach____

J's mother-->rolling her eyes; listen son, we are pretty busy right now so, it will be hard for me to do so. You can stay there for a while until I get time on my hands, okay.

Jackson-->alright, sure mamma, thank you.

J's mother-->yes, bye my baby boy, someone is calling me so I have to go.

Jackson-->oh, Allright, sure mamma.Too happy; thinking that now he will be able to get back in his time, but it's not what it always seems.

J's mother-->forgets to hang up.

Issac-->her son; who was it mother?

J's mother-->no one. It was your elder brother.

Issac-->Oh, wow with his devil smirk, how is that even possible? He is still alive, huh. Where is he?

J's mother-->he traveled back in time.

Issac-->didn't he asked for help. It would have been better if he died on the mission. I even send my assassins to kill him. But I think luck wasn't on my side.
