Atom & Lily

Chapter 9:Killerpatty Park Plan



It was the next day after the school fight, I walked up to Lily's front door and rang the doorbell, silence, I rang the door bell one more time and finally I was greeted but not by Lily but her little brother, He looked at me with a serious glare, I felt like we were having a staring contest when suddenly he shouts "Lily! The homeless person from the other day is here!" I wanted to say something back to correct when Lily rushed to the door, her brother walked back to his room. "Oliver!?" She said excitedly, "I wasn't expecting to see you today.", luckily I built up enough courage to ask her this request, "We need to talk about something, wanna go to this coffee shop not too far from here?" I asked her, she looked really surprised now and told me she'd be ready in a few minutes. I could hear Atom snicker inside my head, "I knew you had a soft spot for her." He said to me, I really wanted to give Atom a piece of my mine after saying that but I decided to let it go for now.

The three of us finally arrived at the coffee shop, first thing to do here, order three cups of coffee for myself, second thing was to apologize, "Hey, Lily?" I asked her as she drank hot chocolate, "I wanna say I'm sorry, I have really bad anger issues and I lash out at anyone in a snap." I said to her, "Apology accepted, honestly it was my fault for bringing you to my school, maybe it was for personal gain after all." She told me, the three of us just sat there sipping from our drinks, "You do know drinking three cups of coffee is unhealthy?" Lily told me, "I have bad sleeping problems." I stated to her, I could never keep up with a regular sleeping schedule when I was looking for Grin scurvy, although my body got used to it now. After our drinks we discussed the game plan. "Alright, today we're gonna find Grin Scurvy, from what i got after interrogating those alleyway crooks, Grin should be at Killerpatty Park." I stated to Lily and Atom. Killerpatty Park was once a beautiful and vibrate place but after the Great Disappearance it became a shanty town, really dangerous for tourist, food people and heroes, 99% of the population there are gangs since law enforcement doesn't go anywhere near Killerpatty park, either due to getting paid off or because they're too scared.
