I've Been There Before

In the end, the fatty’s bat did not land on Grace.

However, it landed firmly on a broad back.

The fatty was so scared that his hands trembled. The leader of the thugs looked at the person who appeared out of thin air. Just now, he was thrown to the corner by a force. Not knowing how too much, he just looked at the person who just popped out in astonishment. “You ... who are you?”

Where did this guy come from?

He was still thinking about it when he suddenly realized that he hadn’t done his job. He coldly snorted and shouted, “Fatty, hit!”

“But …”

“No buts! Once we’re done, we’ll leave the city immediately. We’ll never come back.”

“But this person, what if …”

“Don’t think too much but the money! It’s enough for us to live happily for a lifetime. After this, we will be idle and enjoy our lives.”

That fatty was frightened by the man who just showed up and hesitated. The leading hooligan noticed it and shouted, “You are not committing murder or arson. What are you afraid of? Even if we were caught, we would be only convicted of assault. After a few years in prison, we will be clean. Where can’t we go with that large sum of money?”

“It …”

The fatty was panic because of the accident and mindless due to the words of the leading hooligan. Behind the fatty, a sturdy man rudely pushed him away.

“Shut up!

Damn fatty! If you don’t do it, I’ll!”

The sturdy man swung the baseball bat and hit the person in front him.

“Look! Just like it. Damn fatty, we agreed that the one who hit people will get an extra share of the money. Seeing that you are a loser and a virgin, we are afraid that you won’t find a woman and left this good job to you. With an extra portion of the money, you can find a wife. Since you are unwilling to do it, then get lost. I will take the extra portion of the money.”

The sturdy man raised the bat and hit again.

“Ouch!”
