No one cared...until I changed

chapter two

This was the funniest part.

The message immediately disappeared the moment Kael pressed 'Yes'.

He looked into the rain that was threatening to blind fold him and then nothing.

Kael looked around to see some faces that were now looking at him.

" Is he mad?"

" What is he doing?"

" I think the beating Jason and his cronies dealt him must have triggered his madness."

Maybe this was all a trick?

Maybe his helplessness was getting to him?

Kael got up soaked in the rain. He looked at his torn bagpack and immediately ran towards it seeing that the rain was now raining cats and dogs.

"Fuck it!" Kael said under his breath.

He grabbed it and walked slowly with his face swollen and his head throbbing so loud that it could explode.

Kael checked his wristwatch. He was late. His phone buzzed in his hand—missed calls. Dozens of them. All from Mr. Muggles.

He slung his bag over his shoulders and decided to run. As he ran, Kael noticed he was fast and his muscles were not in pain anymore.

He stood in front of the mini bakery factory in less than thirty minutes before he decided to walk in.

He was greeted by the smell of pastries and a lot of workers who were not putting on clothes. Muscled and sweaty.

They were all busy with work that none of them noticed Kale except his friend, Henry.

" Jezzz. Boy, you are in for a big thrashing today. The boss is going to have you sent away." Henry said trying to keep his voice low. He looked at him and saw some bruises on his face.

" You look like shit. What the hell happened to you?" Henry asked as he got out of his line.

" Long story. Jason and his friends.." Kael wanted to talk but he could feel pain in his ribs each time he tried. He winced in pain.

" I think you have broken a few ribs. Why don't you have that checked at the hospital?" Henry looked at his face but a loud cough stopped the two friends from talking.

A man in his mid sixties with a croaking voice walked out of the office looking angry. " Why are you here, Voss?!" he said angrily. " And you, get back in line!" he yelled at Henry who ran back to his spot.

Kael ran towards the man who seems to hate the fact that he was back in the factory. " I am sorry boss, I got delayed at school." he said looking at his face.

" School? Or are you messing around yet again?" The man said walking past him. " I told you, Voss. This is the last time." Mr Muggles looked at some of the workers who were busy with their work.

" I know. But I need this job, Mr muggles. I am going to do anything. Please don't sack me." Kael said sobbing.

" You used your last shot kid. Last week, you said what again?" Mr muggles looked back. " You were sick? Now this. I am sorry but you need to stop coming here." he said finally.

" Can I at least have my pay check?" Kael said thrusting his hand forward.

" Pay check? And why should I give you that you runt." Mr Muggles said flashing a set of burnt think at his face.

" Because I work my ass off for it. This is the end of the month, Mr Muggles and we are supposed to be paid today. I need that money… I have school fees to pay,” Kael pleaded, his voice cracking as he held back tears.

" And how is that any of my business? You don't get paid if you don't work today. That is the rule boy!" Muggles snapped at him.

Kael clenched his hands in anger. " You are sacking me and you want allow me to get my pay. I think that is unfair!"

" Did you just yell at me?" Mr Muggles said with anger.

The thunder crackled right outside as if it had been listening to the conversation of the both of them. " I can't believe this little piece of shit just yelled at me." Muggles said again.

But Kael wasn't thinking anymore. He was angry, pissed off and he needs someone to vent his anger on.

In a flash, his hands were moving even before he could stop them. Karl's hands crashing into Mr muggles face sending him backward towards the exit door.

He landed with a great thud as the factory became silent.

" Did you see that?"

" How can he do that?"

" He just lost his ticket to finally working here."

" Mr Muggles deserves it."

Mr Muggles got up from the floor with a hardened face. He spit into the ground and looked at the workers. " One hundred dollars for anyone who can get the piece of shit out of my factory."

At first, none of them moved. They had seen what Kael did and it was impossible. Kael was superised and wonder how he could make Mr muggles fly just by landing a punch to his big tummy.

The tension thickened with none of them making a making. " Did you hear what I said?" Mr Muggles walked forward holding his back.

" I just said I am going to give anyone who managed to get this low-life out of my factory!" He yelled again and thunderball cracked yet again showing an angry face.

One of the workers got out of line and walked towards Kael. "You heard the man. Get your ass out of here."

" I need my paycheck. I am not going until I get that!" Kael yelled but a blow send him flying through the factory room. He landed so hard that he heard another rib broken.

All the factory boys had a go at him with each of them landing a foot to his face. Kael tried to look up as saw Henry was part of them.

Tears mixed with emotions engulfed him. He wanted to stand up with anger but the next kick to his face made him unconscious and he blacked out.
