08 Getting the key was the hard journey, but after that, everything was easy. When I was making the bank account, it was my biggest luck that I didn’t put biometric lock because I was lazy. Mason promised that he would never do any iris or finger print scanner lock and opened the safe with the two keys he took from the house. In front of the bank, there were around two Zii agent looking men, but they couldn’t find any connection with Haley and me. They just glimpsed at me like staring at a celebrity. Mason went inside like nothing’s wrong with his specialty pocker face and took out a bearer bond, stocks, and more and left New York lightheartedly. He thought now he won’t be facing his past life anymore. –He felt like he solved all the hard problem that the life gave him, and now he has easy ones left. He headed to his home riding a taxi from LA airport. He felt little uncomfortable that he doesn’t have a license because of few DUI, but it was still fine. He felt little uncomfortable that he just traveled LA to New York, but this body became really heavy like it just traveled the world. For a second, he respected and amazed at Haley living in this body for 24 years. With this poor body, he lived a hard life like going to club all night and doing drugs and drinking alcohol and doing s.e.x. –Mason thought Haley might be an amazing guy than he thought. He got off from the taxi with his heavy body. And in that moment, someone came out from the Ferrari that was parked in front of the house and called out, “Liz!” “Liz! Liz!!!” When Mason turned around, a woman who looked little familiar hesitantly ran to him with a very angry expression. Where did I see her, when I thought about it, I remembered right away. When I first opened my eyes in Haley’s body, it was the woman who tried to take off the oxygen mask. Behind her, there were few other relatives coming out from their cars with angry expressions. Mason indifferently looked at them. He knew his relatives would run towards him after cutting their money, but he didn’t expect them to come this soon. It was totally obvious outcome that he wasn’t even surprised. “Liz, what is this?” His cousin Joy ran to him with an angry face and showed him few letters. Mason glanced at what she was holding. Loren&Casey, it was a letter sent out from Haley’s accounting company. “It’s a reminder.” Mason said it like it was something, and she screamed. “Do you think I’m asking because I don’t know?!”
“You want us to pay back the money we borrowed?” Haley’s relatives already stood in front of him and asked him with angry faces. Aunt Anna, Uncle Jason, Uncle Jordan, Cousin Sandra, Colin, and a guy named Ford that Tony doesn’t exactly know what the relationship between him and Haley was, but he borrowed two thousand dollars from Haley. “Do you think we have enough money to pay you back? You are cutting our living expenses too? You rascal! How can you do this to us?!” “Do you know how embarra.s.sed I was in the mall when my credit card didn’t work? Pay you back? Mack is going to study abroad to Vienna. You can’t even support him you are asking for money?” “Who is it. Did someone tell you to do this? Is it Tony? Did that idiot tell you to do this? Who tricked you into doing this?” Many words were pouring into my ear. Mason blocked his ears and said, “If you don’t say one person at a time, I’m just gonna go in.” Because of Mason’s sternness, the relatives stopped for a second and screamed louder. “What? What are you saying? Don’t you get what we are saying? Don’t you get you are giving your family a hard time?” “Such a c.o.c.ky b.a.s.t.a.r.d, we even took care of you who didn’t even have a parent.” “Liz! Seriously why are you doing this! I already apologized for what I did on Twitter!” What about the Twitter. Mason blocked his ear with one hand and waved at them with another hand, and he walked to this front gate. “Liz!” “Haley!” When Mason was trying to go inside adamantly, they tried to grab him like they are going to eat him. Mason avoided their hands and asked, “You guys are gonna hit a person in front of the CCTV?” “It’s better not to do that. Trying to attack a person for the money, isn’t it like a robbery?” Well I guess that charge can apply. –Mason didn’t really say to provoke them. He just said it indifferently, and Uncle Jason who tried to grab him frowned. Mason held the gate and stared at each one of them. “I’m listening to you guys because I thought I have to do this once anyway. If you guys aren’t going to talk one person at a time, go back.” “What? You b.i.t.c.h-“ Mason shrugged his shoulders at a curse word and closed the door. Right before the door closed, a foot came in. “I’m, I’m going to say it first!” It was his cousin Joy. People were saying why did you interfere, but Mason looked at her. “Liz~” She called him with a lulling voice. “Liz. Why are you suddenly like this? Huh? Are you seriously not gonna give this month living expense? You are gonna even cut Eric’s baby sitter’s salary, you are kidding, right?” She said it like I know you are mad, but let’s get along well again. The relatives around her didn’t look pleased, but they didn’t stop her because they thought this was the better way. Mason slowly checked her out. “And suddenly a remainder. How, how am I gonna pay this much money? I don’t even work….” “Why aren’t you working?” “What? Be, because I don’t have ability, and I can’t even do office works….” “So you are not capable of doing anything than normal people?” She blushed her face little bit at what Mason said and hardly replied, “Ye, yeah, that’s what I meant.” Mason said, “Then go to a center. There are many programs for people who can’t work normally” and smiled. “The money that you borrowed, first sell the house you are living in and that Ferrari and the rest sell those nice heels and dresses, and if that’s still not enough, sell your organs to pay me back.” He said it like it’s nothing. Actually to Mason, it was not a big deal. She is riding Ferrari and wearing high-end brand watch that Mason even knows, and she can’t pay back the money. In the neighborhood where Mason lived, they don’t just nicely say “sell your organs” they just take the person and chop them off and send it to China, Philippines, and everywhere around the world. “Wha, What? How can you say that to me?! I’m your cousin!” “Who said you don’t have to pay back the money that you borrowed from your cousin? If your lawyer said that, you should fire him at once. And you don’t even work, but you hired two baby sitter. Is one of them to help you since you are not capable of doing anything?” Even though it’s not, I don’t have to care. Mason shrugged his shoulders and said it. Joy screamed “Liz!!!,” but he looked to the far left woman, Aunt Anna. She was biting her lips to hold her anger and said it in a calm voice. “Haley. Isn’t my hospital bill different? I don’t know about other but cutting my hospital bill, you want to me die in pain?” “I don’t know. You have your kids. Why are you asking me?” Mason picked his ear and said it insincerely, and Anna asked like she couldn’t believe it. “Bella is earning money so hardly. How can I ask her to give it to me? How can I do that! What kind of person……” “My money is easy to earn so share some?” Anna looked little in panic, but soon she turned shameless. “It’s, it’s not like that, but, you have more money…” “You should ask Raynoah? He has way more money than me.” “How can I ask Noah there’s no relationship between us? You really,” Mason cut her word and asked “Why?” “You and I there’s nothing. You say this well. –It seems like you don’t know what the word disowned means. If you call your daughter, Bella, who’s earning money hardly, then she’ll kindly explain it to you. –And you.” After Mason made Anna pale, he looked at Jason. “You took care of me even though I didn’t have a parent? I’m sorry, but you should’ve done a better job instead of thinking of selling a picture of me on the ground drunk.” What? –Mason ignored Jason screaming and looked at the next woman. Cousin Sandra. She was pale and trembling her lips. “Support Mack’s studying abroad? –bulls.h.i.t, seriously.” Mason got annoyed and lazy at talking nicely. “You don’t have ability to teach a kid, but you want to send him to study abroad and want to shop in a mall. A cousin who’s born pretty needs to even sell his AV to satisfy your desire?” Mason saw many trash in his life. He couldn’t even put these people in a trash category. There were far more son of a b.i.t.c.h people in his life. If you look little bit weak or relaxed, they steal everything away literally even people’s organs. There were countless people kidnapping little kids and feed them drugs to do prost.i.tution, and there was a guy who enjoyed scamming poor people so that they end up hanging themselves. Mason survived middle of people like that. Well, he ended up dead at the end, but still. Anyway this wasn’t even an appetizer to him. “Look. Isn’t there anymore to take it away? Good pocket money? You know even if you sell my s.e.x tape, they won’t even give 500. Do you really want my inheritance?” Mason looked at them like he’s looking at world’s worst people. They frowned that Haley brought out what they were talking about in the hospital room. “You, you, you, you’re so selfish…..! You earn that much money, and you can’t even use some for your relatives? If you act like this, we have ways too!” “We are gonna bury you completely. You think we can’t do it? If I sell the dirty little secrets you have to the reporters…..” Mason smirked. He was tired, and people in front of his eyes were very boring. He thought of what he should do and took out a Glock 17. Click, he instantly took off the safety guard and turned around to see them. I should have just done this in the first place. This kind of thought came in late. “Wha, what are you doing?!”
“Kyak! Liz!!”
He didn’t even point the gun at them he just showed them the gun, but the relatives were all in panic. Bang!!! In front of them he shot the gun in the air and said, “Listen carefully.” “Before trying to ruin my life, you should hire a body guard. Pretty expensive ones too.”

Mason smiled brightly in front of the pale cousins. His goal was to look crazy and looking at the relatives faces it seems like it worked.
