Janet got out of Jason’s insane vehicle, or more like a racing machine to her, and retreated into her uncle’s house with a disgusted feeling. Everything she had been through today and last night was a complete nightmare, she wished any of this would be gone by the time she woke up for dinner, but it didn’t.
Yesterday evening, she was hanging out with her friend as usual in an arcade center in Chinatown. When they finally finished with the day and went out for dinner, couple street kids circled and invited them to dinner, as long as they kept quiet at the table. Janet and her friend thought about the free meal and eyed each other, they couldn’t resist it, especially when they were going to the new burger place.
They knew something was wrong immediately when the car pulled over outside the diner, it was too quiet for the dinner crowd. They stayed put in the crappy white van and waited. Presently they saw some dude with a mask carrying gun-like object fled the scene as the action unfolded. The interior and windows were splashed, or blasted with fresh blood. One of the girl dialed for help while the others walking toward the entrance.
The door was wide open, they smelt of a foul and fishy scent as bodies lying on the floor in their own blood pool. The guys went straight to the counter and checked out the cash from the register, the girls on the other hand chickened and ran back to the van. They drove away to another place and had a better dinner, all paid with the money stolen from the burger place.
What they didn’t know was, the people died there weren’t ordinary citizen, they were, including the employee, had affiliation with the CK gang. Their boss, CK happened to be there celebrating the opening of their first legitimate burger shop, which came with bribery. Also, the cameras installed above the counter area and the entrance captured everything happened, although the member couldn’t identify the gunman because of its mask, they thought the kids entered later might saw something insightful.
As the people around the underground gathered at the nightclub discussing the incident with Jason’s uncle that midnight, those street kids were brought in for questioning as they showed themselves in the surveillance footage. They traced further back to the arcade center owner and got hold of one of the girl’s address, whom’s uncle was his schoolmate once. Poor Janet, her uncle foretold this would happen when he received the call from the owner of the arcade center.
She didn’t know anything, she was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. She cried and begged the people in the room to trust her, just as she did when her parents died in a terrible traffic accident. She was gagged and put away in a corner while the discussion continued.
“Dinner!” Her uncle yelled downstairs.
