Finally reaching an area Lou knew, he pulled out his phone to message Ko. Due to the speeding they were doing, they should arrive a few hours early. Sending the text, Lou waited. He wasn’t sure if they might end up at the local Pop and Chop or catch Ko at a bad time, so Lou had G.I.T. pull off to the side of the road.
“What me to provide some information on the local Pop and Chop shop master?”
“No need to worry about that G.I.T. I have been there many times before!”
Grabbing a drink of pop and bag of salty popcorn, Lou begun to enjoy them. His phone stated to ring loudly against the music. Placing the bag of salty popcorn down Lou picked up his phone, Ko was calling so he answered.
“Hello?”
“Give me a minute and I’ll meet you at the local Pop and Chop, do you want me to tell your parents?”
“Not now Ko, I’ll deal with them after we eat some real food!”
“Ok, see you there!”
Hanging up the call Lou commanded G.I.T. to start heading their way to the local Pop and Choop and get a good parking spot.
“Understood master!”
As G.I.T. drove Lou felt himself relax a little, it would be fun to have some company after everything beside G.I.T. Once this was finally done Lou would be able to go back to normal life and forget everything that have happened. There was little traffic so it was easy going and there was plenty of good parking spots available. Climbing out of the car Lou made his way to the entrance. The store was already opened but G.I.T. had informed him that Ko was still a long distance away. Checking the time, it was only 6 in the morning.
“So any new updates on the criminal?” Lucia asked and he rested against the wall.
“There are none unfortunately, he hasn’t been seen since the time he attacked you!”
“I see” Lou replied as he started feeling slightly uncomfortable that the criminal could of still be coming after him.

“Hey Lou, I’m here!” yelled a familiar voice.
Turning in the direction of the voice, Lou saw that o was crossing the road towards him. Waving, Lou greeted Ko before they made their way inside. The inside of the local Pop and Chop had a front desk where people were lead to seats, a valet rope which blocks the rest of the restaurant and bathrooms at the front encase of a long wait. Heading to the counter Lou was about to pull out the card when he was steered to the valet rope by Ko to see hat the valet rope was being opened.
“I already paid and booked a booth since I thought you would be hungry and want a break after a long drive?” Ko stated friendly.
“Thanks!” Lou replied as they begun to follow a waiter to their booth, it was one of the more secluded ones.
Sitting down they were handed their menus before the waitress stood to the side for them to choose. Looking over the items, Lou endued up choosing a beef burger with chips and a soda pop.
“So is it normal for you to get kidnapped?” Ko asked worried.
“Kind of” Lou replied, focusing on the menu not wanting to talk with Ko. ‘Soon everything ill be back to norma’ though Lou with relief.
“Want to talk about it?”
“No thank you Ko, I rather not!” Lou asked trying to stay level-headed and not yell at Ko to leave it be.
They sat in silence util the waitress came back with their food and drinks. Trying to enjoy his meal, Lou couldn’t help but see that Ko was still looking at him worried and not really eating his food. It made him feel disgusted. Quickening his pace Lou wanted to be done and leave so he wouldn’t have to see Ko for long.
Once done Lou started to make his way outside, he moved to the side as he waited for Ko to catch up.
“Are you in a rush?” Ko asked, exhausted.
“Not really just though it was best to call my father now before things get out of hand!” Lou replied as they left the local Pop and Chop.
“That’s good!” Ko replied before they went down an alleyway where it would be much quieter and less people around.
Turning on his phone Lou called his father and waited. The phone ringed before it hit the voicemail.
“Father, can you call me later!” Lou said before hanging up the call. “Guess he is busy at the moment?”
Lou then tried his mother but also got the same result.
“Any luck?” Ko asked as he was keeping an eye out for something or someone, Lou wasn’t sure why.
“Think its best that I start making my way home encase they are still there!”
“I’ll join you since that’s the way I need to get home!”
“Sure!” Lou replied as he followed Ko towards the closest bus stop. Lou felt it was best that he doesn’t take Ko to the car since it would just make things more complicated.
