After Day ended the call, Itt's eyes lit up, and he slowly sat up in bed with a serious expression on his face.

"Damn it. When is this going to end? This Bastard is too jealous. Gear won't kill his little brother," Itt complained to himself, but his heart couldn't resist wondering whether Day would come back to check on him or not.

"I will take a shower first. Living like this, I don't feel safe," Itt said because he was still naked. The pale figure slowly descended from the bed. As soon as his feet touched the cold floor, he felt his legs trembling.

"Why am I shaking so much?" Itt cursed angrily at his feet. He feels himself going crazier with each passing day because he is now forced to stay alone and talk to himself.

Itt forced himself to take a bath and soak in the warm water inside of the tub because it helps relax his muscles. Itt reaches for the phone beside him. He was afraid to miss Day's call because of Day's threat to screw him the number of times he didn't pick up his phone when he called.

Itt calls Gear's number, but it goes to voicemail. He stops trying to call and finishes his bath before getting dressed.

Ring... Ring... Ring...

Itt's phone rings. He immediately picks it up to see who's calling, feeling relieved that it wasn't Day.

"What's up, Nick?" Itt answered, seeing it was his friend.

- ("Are you home?") Nick asked.

"I'm not there. I went out to take care of some business," Itt lied.

- ("Oh, Where at? I'm bored and getting a little frustrated. I want to go get something to eat at Siam. Will you go with me? I can pick you up. Have you finished your errands yet?) Nick asked.

Itt hesitated a bit before realizing that Day would probably be busy taking care of Night's affairs. He often stays overnight with his brother without coming back to sleep at the condo. The more issues he has, the more Day he must watch over his brother.

"Oh, come pick me up at my friend's condo. I'll go downstairs and wait for you," Itt said as he gave him directions to Day's condo. Since he has many friends, Nick probably wouldn't suspect a thing. After making the plans with Nick, Itt was ready to get ready and wait for Nick downstairs. Itt walked slowly because he still felt a sharp pain inside. Itt stood and waited for his friend to arrive. Nick parked his car. Itt opens the car door.

"What are you doing here?" Nick asked before getting out of the car.

"I came to see a friend. What should I eat? I'm starving." Itt changed the subject so that his friend wouldn't ask too many questions.

"What do you want to eat?" Nick asked.

"I want to eat Japanese food," Itt said back. He's not in the mood to eat spicy food.

"Well, let's eat at Paragon. I can look at the girls too," Nick said, turning to give his friend a small look.

"Hey, Itt. Did you get into a fight with a girl again? Your neck is full of marks. Ha-Ha. That girl must be a sadist," Nick said jokingly, startling Itt. He immediately adjusts his shirt collar to hide the marks.

"Ugh... very sadistic and very horny," Itt replied. Nick frowned before lightly chuckling.

"So, that's it?" Nick said with a light chuckle before Itt fell silent.

//Do I have to send a message to tell him first? I'm going out... nothing more. If he's in a bad mood, he will come and bother us again. //

Itt thought to himself before deciding not to tell Day that he would be out eating with a friend. Itt craves freedom. He wants to go back to his old life. Soon, they arrive at the mall. Nick parks, and they walk into the mall together.
