New Week

  Yves arrived at the training center, his mind still contemplating that there might be someone else behind the attack. He wants to say what’s in his mind, but he first has to clear his name and show people his powers, but all of those tasks will be extremely difficult.

  Yves passed through the barrier, he suddenly saw a large crowd of people inside the parameters. He can only dodge and move as if he is a snake through the crowd.

  Yves arrived at the main door; however, it was guarded by five people. They are letting no one in unless they are family members picking their family or people who are actively going to the training center.

  “Identification”

  Yves checked his pockets; he didn't feel anything. He continued to pat at every pocket in his clothes, but he found nothing. He looked at the guard with puppy eyes, but it was of no effect.

  “He is a student here; I am his teacher.” Ms. Sofia happened to want to enter the training center at a similar time.

  The guards look at each other with confusion; they know that she is a teacher, but how can a tall kid go to a class with a bunch of people one-half Yves's size? They continued to look at Yves; they saw how familiar his outfit was.

  They paved the way and let Yves and Ms. Sofia pass without any questioning.

  Yves looks at the people crying and hugging with their families. He looks at all the people embracing their family members, crying from the joy of seeing them alive.

  “You did well, Yves.” Ms. Sofia patted Yves's shoulder before going her separate way.

  Yves smiled and waved at her. He feels happy that at least someone acknowledges his efforts.

  Questions started popping into Yves' head.

  Is she saying this because I survived? Did she see my fight? If she did, then why didn’t she help me?

  “There you are.” Fabio tapped Yves' shoulder.

  Yves flinched but composed himself.

  “Oh, Fabio, can you tell me what happened after I passed out?”

  Fabio was taken aback by the question. He looked calm, his eyes softened, and a small smile appeared.

  “Nothing really important; it is just that I was the helping crew, so it was very tiring.” Fabio walked to the crowd of people.

  Yves had nothing to do. He knows that it will take a while for everything to go back to normal, but currently, he is bored, and everyone is in another mood.

  Yves feels annoyed that on the first day that he arrived, a lot of things have happened.

  Yves fulfilled his mission of going back to see everyone and went back outside. He wants to go to his room and take a long shower after such a long flight.

  Yves started walking to his house. He saw how much the town had changed. He experienced the calm before the attack, the aftermath, and the cleaning. Yves continued to walk, seeing everything now much calmer.

  Yves arrived at his house; he shed a small tear of happiness after seeing his house.

  Yves entered and went to his room.

  The first thing he did was take a long shower. To think and summarize everything that happened and what he learned about his abilities.

  Yves left the shower; his body, now in a calm state, felt a wave of tiredness. He went to bed without doing anything and slept.

  Yves slept for the entire day, he had no dreams, and his body and mind were all fatigued for him to dream.

  When Yves woke up, he went to the kitchen. He prepared a simple breakfast of scrambled eggs and a side of water.

  His body feels rejuvenated; he feels ready to tackle any challenge. He finishes his meal and goes to the living room.

  A small envelope captures his eyes; he goes and grabs it.

  Yves opens the envelope and begins reading.

  After he finished reading, he went to the restroom.

  He saw how long his hair was; he didn't remember when was the last time he had a haircut.

  Yves grabbed his keys, opened the door, and left.

  Yves walked to the barbershop, praying that it would be open.

  He arrived, and there was no one. He looked around but found no one.

  Suddenly he hears some footsteps.

  “Are you here for a haircut?”

  Yves turned around and saw the barber; he nodded. The man opened the door and entered. Yves followed him in.

  “It is crazy how much this town has changed. I am just happy that everyone is trying to get over it together.”

  Yves quietly sat down in the chair as the man was talking.

  “What haircut would you like?”

  “I don’t know. Just make it look nice.”

  The man smiled and began cutting his hair.

  Yves closed his eyes as he also wanted to be surprised. He feels how his hair is being cut, feeling the scissors and comb.

  Thirty minutes passed until the man finally signaled Yves to open his eyes.

  Yves looks at the mirror; he sees how much he has changed; his hairstyle fits his wavy hair and his oval head shape. Yves looks at himself; a little of his ego increases. He never knew he was this attractive.

  “Did you like it?”

  “Hehe,” Yves rubbed his hand like a fly. “Yeah, it is very good.”

  “I am happy that you like it.”

  “How much is it?” Yves takes out his last gold coin.

  “For this week there is no price. We need to help each other in these times.”

  “Thank you very much.” Yves stood up and left the barber shop.

  Hehe, it is now my turn to shine. How can anyone not like my beautiful face? I am just too handsome; if at least ten people don’t have a crush on me, then they don’t appreciate a beauty like me.

  Yves is attractive, but not enough to have that much of an ego.

  Ink also agrees; he wants to speak, but he decides to just stay quiet. We are interested in how the event he is going to is going to go.
