Mother said, "I don't want to see his face ever again. He disgusts me. Kick him out of the house...."

"But every..."

They didn't let Irwan finish what he wanted to say. They grabbed his neck, pulled him near the door, and threw him outside of the house.

(Why? Why did this happen to me? What did I do wrong? Why does mother hate me this much) Irwan was thinking this kind of thing while looking at the closed door. His heart was beating fast and his eyes became wet. He turned his head lower, wiped out his tears, and then left with his head down.

He needed money to eat and find a place to stay. He remembered the principal giving him visiting card. But he felt like Principal would think he was using her generosity and playing with good intentions. So he didn't bother her...

He looked from one place to another, to look for a job. But he didn't find any job. He thought of asking for help from his friend. But he was hesitating too much so he didn't.

At night, he was on an abandoned airport field. He didn't eat anything so he was really hungry and he couldn't sleep cause the floor was made of concrete. He just sat down and kept looking at the stars.....

" This looks beautiful. But....."

...

His eyes became wet again.

Then someone appeared right behind him out of nowhere. It was like he appeared out of thin air. But Irwan didn't notice anything yet. He was just looking at the sky...

"What did I do wrong? Why this kind of thing only happens to me? Did I do anything bad that I shouldn't have?"

He just kept looking at the skies quietly. Time passes by. It was quiet there. No sound except of bugs. A while later...

"Hello there...." [a person's voice.]

!!!!!

"WHO...!!!!" Irwan really freaked out. He thought it was gonna give him a heart attack. Irwan looked behind and saw someone with a brown robe.

"Wh..who are you? And what do you want from me?"

That unknown person sat beside Irwan. Then Irwan was able to see his face. He was handsome with brown hair. Irwan was surprised when he found out that he is a foreigner. And he was constantly thinking how did he appear just like that? He didn't hear any sound!!.

"You don't have to be afraid of me. Rest assured, I won't do any harm to you. After all, you are one of us", That stranger said to Irwan.

"One of you...? What do you mean by that?" Irwan calmed down a bit and asked this question with a wondering expression in his eyes.

"Hmm???. Hahahhaha, look at you. You were so afraid just a moment ago and now I don't see any fear in your eyes but curiosity ....."

....

"Well, that's also good. Since you are one of us, you have to be strong and fearless. Oh, I didn't introduce myself to you yet. How rude of me..."

"I am Maikel Krischiano, I am the vice leader of our team known as " EXECUTIONERS"."

"What? That is a freakish name. Who the hell came up with this kind of name?" Irwan

"Freakish name? What the hell? Do you know how much effort I had to put to think of this name? I didn't eat day and night, didn't sleep, didn't take shower just to think of this name" [ It's not actually true, just spouting busllsh*t] , Maikel.

"Oh, so you are the one who came up with this name. No wonder it's so freakish, just like you" Irwan "How rude... Hmph... This name is a bit freakish if you translate it into your language. But I thought of this name cause we execute missions that are impossible or very hard for normal humans. And also We execute those who terrorize the world, so I named our team " Executioners"

"Ok ok, I get it. you don't have to cry for that..."

"Who is crying? Damn youuuu...!!!." You are so bold. I thought you would be crying out of fear and here you are busy teasing me."

" Why would I be afraid of you since you already said I am one of you. That means even if you want to harm me, you won't do it right now. Anyway, I am curious to know. what do you mean by NORMAL HUMAN? What were you talking about?" Irwan.

"Well well, you are really something else. You have become more mature than I have expected you to be. Anyway, By that, I mean those humans who don't have power like us. And by power like us, I mean...

" Well, it will be easy if you experience it rather than me telling you. And I believe you have already experienced a bit of it not long ago. Don't you remember the show off of strength in the classroom??"

"How do you know about it? Are you stalking me?"

"What??? Stalking???... Oh if I think it through, you can put it like that. I have been keeping an eye on you for more than a year. Anyway, I know what happened with you recently. You have nowhere to go. Would you like to come with me?"

Maikel stood up. He extended his hand towards Irwan and said,

" We are your ally. Don't be afraid of us, we know what you have been going through. You are one of us. You will have to endure a bit of physical pain while training but I believe physical pain is nothing to you when your heart is shattered and there is no one to see your pain, feel your suffering. In the future people will say to you how amazing you are, but will not understand what you have gone through. But we are like a family there. We are also like you. Castaway by the society. We understand you. We have received this power cause we were chosen by God to maintain peace. We understand each other's pain. you can share your feelings, your burden with us. We will hear you. So will you believe us just once and join the team "EXECUTIONERS"? Will you come with me to our house? A place that you can call home."

"...."

Irwan looked at him. At that time the moon was just above him. He looked like someone who was reaching out to Irwan when he needed him most. He saw hope in that stranger.

"....."

Irwan kept quiet for a few moments. He was touched by this. He wanted to believe in this hope he saw at that moment. He lowered his head took his hand, stood up, and said,

"Man, aren't you embarrassed at all after saying this kind of embarrassing thing? Anyway, I have nowhere to go. So... I guess I will come with you..."

Cold air was blowing around, " That's good to know. Let's go back to our home, shall we?"...., Maikel Krischiano
