It's a normal Saturday noon. I finished all the things I usually do, and I am currently heading to the grocery store to replenish the food on my fridge. My name is Jin Hale, a normal employee though my office friends always told me that I am a lazy but capable person, which is true.

I do all things in the easiest way even it seems weird from the perspective of my surrounding. But I don't care, the important is I finished everything as soon as possible and enjoy the rest of the time and laze around.

I arrived at the grocery store and was surprised that it was rowdy. Though I already figure that many people will gather here but it still surprises me. They are falling in line at the front door of the store.

I look around and saw a banner with the inscription "50% off for all the goods". That's nice because the food I can buy will be double in quantity.

I walk towards the third person standing from the store door.

"Yo, good job falling in line and now you're almost near the door." I said while smiling.

"Jin, my feet hurt due to standing for too long."

"I know, that's why I come here so you can go home now. Thanks!" Jin

My co-worker sighs. I already know that today will be the sale day three days ago and asked my co-worker to fall in line for me before the store opens.

I just asked my co-worker to return the favor. When something bad happens or my co-worker cannot finish their workload, they always ask for my help. And of course, I will gladly help and told them to return the favor when I need it.

Today is one of them.

Once I'm done with my groceries. I decided to go home.

After I open the door and proceed to my house, all hair on my nape suddenly stands up. Four people robbing my house, each of them wearing a full head mask.

Once they notice my presence, they point their gun toward my location.

I instinctively raised my hand.

"Wha-at a-re.." I stuttered due to my shock.

"Give me your money!!" Said one of them while slowly walking toward me.

I don't know what to say, this is my first time experiencing this.

"I said give me your money!!"

"Ye-s! Yes! Here, just take everything you need and leave me alone" Though I was nervous, I tried to calm myself and hope that I can live another day if I let them take everything they want. As long as they don't kill me, it's okay.

I give them the money I have in my wallet.

"Do you have jewelry?!"

"I don't have any jewelry, but I have my wristwatch, just beside the fridge." I told them honestly

"Good, listen to us if you want to live!"

Yes, yes. Now take it and get out and cursed them on my mind.

"Is there any money in your drawer?"

"None." I told them honestly. It's better to say the truth in a short response.

"None?!" One of them said in anger

"Yes. I have no more cash on my wallet, here look." I told them honestly.

"Don't lie to us now or we will kill you!!!"

Damn it! They're not sober at all. Their eyes are colored red and angrily glaring at me. They don't smell drunk, so they probably use the drug.

Suddenly, we heard a siren not too far away from my apartment which made everyone inside exclaim with surprise. This is bad, this is really bad.

"Damn you! You called the cops?!"

"Let's kill him now!"

What?! Kill me? Me? I did not call the cops! Fuck!

"No. No! I didn't call the cops, maybe they're just passing by, please don't!" I said and this time I started to feel really nervous

Though I know self-defense and swordsmanship since I studied them when I was in Senior High. They still have a gun, and I don't have anything on me besides my wallet and a plastic bag full of food.

"Shut up! If we kill him, the cops can hear a gunshot!"

"No, it's already too late, we either get arrested or be killed by the cops. Let's bring him down with us!!"

What the fuck are you talking about?! I started to curse them in my head/

"No, please don't. I really didn't call the cops. Here, take my wallet, my food, and other things in my drawer. They still have value, just don't kill me."

My hand started to shake, this is unfair, four versus one and the funny thing is each of them has a gun and they are under some unknown drug. How can I survive if they all lose reason?

"No! Let's beat him to death, maybe the cops are just passing by and if we kill him with our gun, the cops will probably hear it. While if we beat him, they will not notice!"

"Yeah! Let's do that one!"

"Damn you! You did it to yourself so don't blame us. I don't care anymore if you really called the cops or not!"

Damn it! Why?!! I just want to live a lazy and peaceful life! I didn't harm anyone, all the favor I asked for from my co-worker cannot be called inhuman. I just order them an errand for me when I need something.

They started to run in my direction. I picked up the bag full of food beside me and throw it at them. one of them got out of balance because that bag is heavy.

I started to form a stance for self-defense I learned. He throws a punch at me and when his punch are close to my face, I jumped backward which resulted in him getting out of balanced.

This is my chance now, I run towards the door and when it slightly opens, two gunshot rings in my ears, and in a split second I feel pain on my back and hot liquid pouring down on my lower body.

I look in their direction and saw the two-man aiming their gun at me.

I fell to my knees and tried to reach for the source of the pain.

Fuck!! Why did this happen! It is fucking hurts!

I started to feel cold, and my eyes is getting heavy. As I tried to lean on the wall, blood started oozing from my mouth.

I want to curse them out loud, but my mouth only opens and no voice comes out.

The pain is getting worse.

Then I heard the cop siren in front of my apartment and shift my gaze to four fuckers. They started to panic.

I can't feel the hot liquid anymore, the pain is starting to fade away together with my vision.

"Fuck!" was the last word I uttered on earth.
