After a few seconds, the boy noticed Caleb standing in the doorway. Dave sat down expectantly, leaning on his hands, and Caleb sat down gingerly beside him and began to speak quietly and timidly. My nerves were all shot yesterday because you were missing and it was such a shitty day - he laid his head on his stomach - I'm sorry... I wasn't in control.... - there was sadness, regret and remorse in Caleb's voice.
- I-I need to think about what happened yesterday, I want to be alone...or with someone else," Dave answered, putting his trembling hand on the secretary's head. [BR]-Okay, and of course, I have to go away for a week, maybe even a month, whatever I can finish," the secretary said as he got off the bed and started packing.
- Well, who do you want to leave for me? - asked the brown-haired man, he was already looking at Caleb with tension. Yes, he was ready to forgive him right here and now, but only if he didn't leave.
- Voida, why? He's got his own entourage, I heard he's got a guy on the side, lives in the middle of nowhere, he's got a deadly gas in the city, so he's living in the middle of nowhere, just like you wanted!
- What kind of gases are deadly to him?
- Well, from the sewers, for example, or the exhaust fumes, the fumes from the chimneys, the fumes that the chimneys emit are deadly and all that kind of stuff, and knowing the city there are a lot of those gases, so it's a deadly zone for him," he answered, he looked at Dave with rapt attention and got scared.
- N-don't go! - The brown man began to cry, his voice was pleading and pleading.
- Hey, hush, hush," said the secretary. He hugged the sobbing man in return receiving a tight hug on his torso.
- I promise you, I'll try to come as soon as possible, finish as soon as possible too!
- W-really? - The brown-haired man asked lifting his head up and looking at him.
- Really - he smiled looking at his reflection in his blue eyes. Then the secretary broke out of the brown man's embrace and continued packing his bag. Then Caleb walks out of the room and calls Voide.
/Hello? Hello?
- Voyd, I'm packed and ready to go, can you pick up Dave? And then to the bicolor.
/ Voyd: All right, I'll give Markisho a heads up, good luck there.
- Yeah, thanks - the secretary finished the conversation, put the invalid on the chair and after getting dressed and taking his bag he left the apartment with Dave, the man locked the door and he and Dave carefully went downstairs where Voyd was waiting for them.
- Go on, I'll be on my way," said the secretary handing the ward to the inspector.
- Okay, good luck there - said Voyd, nodded and then the redhead drove off, Voyd loaded the brown-haired man into the car, and then folding his baby carriage he got behind the wheel and they drove off on a long trip out of town, into the middle of nowhere.
Three hours later.
- When do we get there? - asked the brown-haired man who was tired of waiting and couldn't find a hobby.
- In an hour - answered Voyd, they drove through the woods again and stood at the huge gate, Voyd drove into the underground garage and pulled the guy out of the car and put him in his wheelchair, they let him inside and for about ten minutes they walked through the beautiful thicket of flowers and trees.
- Wow, who lives here? - asked the brown-haired man with a hopeful look at the dark-haired man.
- There is a man who is dying to be in the city, and his name is Markish - said Void, in the distance there was a medium-sized house, on its fence there were some plants that smelled very sweet. Voyd left the brown-haired man a little behind and knocked on the door, footsteps were heard and the door was opened by a boy a head shorter than Voyd himself. His eyes were emerald green and his hair was red but a few strands of it were black, his clothes were a little baggy and a little wrinkled, a gray T-shirt, light blue jeans and white sneakers, he looked shyly into Voyd's eyes, and he started to talk.
- I've brought you an invalid for temporary custody.
- Uh, how long is he here for? - asked the redhead.
- Maybe a week or a month, as long as the secretary can finish," replied Inspector Voyd.
- Well, bring him here, so to speak
- All right, replied the black-haired man. The red-haired boy examines him and smiles at the brown-haired man and says: "What's your name?
- What's your name? - His gaze was soft and not threatening at all, cold or empty, or maybe it was just that his gaze was not full of crazy obuser love or simple dirty lust, just a warm and friendly look.
- Dave," the boy answered, he liked looking into those eyes, beautiful eyes.
- Oh, then call me Markish - he smiled warmly, giving the brown man a pleasant warmth.
- What an unusual name
- I know - the redhead kept smiling until he noticed Voyd looking at him strangely.
- Voyd, you should probably go now! - said in a panic, he pushed the inspector out of the house, he locked the door and turned to the brown-haired man. He smiled and then went with his stroller into the kitchen.
- I don't want to eat, I want to sleep! - said the shaten, and then yawned.
- Good - said slowly exhaling that one. Here he was put to bed, changed his clothes, washed some more! And afterward, the shaten gets scared.
To continue lying alone or to call Markish to sleep with him.
What to do?
