Chapter 45: His way.

~Yesterday evening~

From the entrance of the gaming lounge, Ethan's eyes caught Brian and Nate among the other guys in the building intensely focused on their game at the far end. He recognized them instantly by their clothes, even without them facing him.

Without waiting a second, he stormed toward them, brushing past everyone in his path. When he As he reached Brian and Nate, they remained engrossed in their game, they didn't even throw a glance at Ethan because they were too invested in the game they were playing.

"What's up, dude?" Nate said, noticing a tall presence next to him.

Ethan twitched; his hands instantly reached behind the gaming desktop that was in front of Nate's face and rapidly pulled out cables attached to it, turning it off.

"Fuck! Are you crazy?" Nate erupted, jolting up and shoving his chair and everything away. His eyes met Ethan's form with a glare and stepped forward to hit him, but Ethan caught his hand and pushed him back.

"What the fuck is going on, Ethan?
