Friday, October 16th
Theo arrived from his morning sparring session at his apartment.
As he entered the apartment he was greeted by the scene of Maya jumping around the couch with her toy.
The little kitten became much more open with Theo and Aurora after a few days of them giving her all the love that they could give.
"Hey, princess!" Theo lifted Maya and hugged her.
"Today we are going to the vet to change your bandage, okay?" Theo said with a caring voice.
Theo and Aurora developed the voice that every pet owner acquired after getting a cub, the baby voice when talking to their pets.
After a while, Theo released the poor kitten and went to take a shower.
30 minutes later, Theo and Aurora were having breakfast together.
"Brother, can I go have a sleepover by Umaru's house?" Aurora asked with pleading eyes.
Theo looked at his sister and thought about it.
'This is great. I have a feeling that tonight something bad is going to happen...' Theo thought.
"Sure, but do not separate from your phone. I can monitor your location with it."
"No alcohol, no partying, no leaving Umaru's house. Be careful and responsible." Theo said with a serious voice.
"Thank you, brother!" Aurora was grateful, she did not have much difficulty in obeying Theo's conditions.
She only wanted to have a sleepover with her friends anyway.
"Text me when you arrive at Umaru's." Theo said as he gave her a hug when she was leaving for school.
She would go directly to Umaru's house from her school. So, Theo was only going to see her tomorrow.
"Yes, brother, I will send you a bunch of messages!" Aurora said with a sweet voice.
"Sure." Theo laughed.
Theo looked at the street, as Aurora entered the car and went away.
Theo entered the apartment and looked at Maya.
"Let's go? You are coming with me today, little Maya!" Theo smiled as he heard Maya giving a little meow.
Theo put on some grey pants, a black shirt with silver details, and a wine-colored jacket. Theo looked like a stylized youngster with his luxury clothes.
Theo exited his apartment with Maya.
The morning went by with Theo changing Maya's bandage in the vet clinic.
Afterward, he went to his office to study.
Theo predicted that he would level up his Architect Skill to level 3 today, and tomorrow he would increase his engineering proficiencies to an intermediate level.
That was an amazing speed!
It needs to be said that level 3 of Architect Skill had the same knowledge as someone who just finished the architect bachelor's degree.
The same happened with intermediate proficiency in the engineering departments. All of them were extremely complicated. And that is why the students only left the university with intermediate knowledge. If they wanted to learn more, they would have to learn by practicing or from more experienced engineers.
But Theo learned these five subjects to an acceptable level in a little more of a week.
His eidetic memory and enhanced intellect played a major role in this process.
Theo was ecstatic about his prospects.
At 4 pm, Theo went towards the restaurant.
When he arrived, he felt a strange feeling.
The feeling of eyes malice hovering over him.
He looked around the surroundings of the restaurant.
The street where his restaurant was located was busy and crowded. He saw cars coming and going, pedestrians crossing the street and walking by the sidewalk, and people going into the shops located in the street.
He could not pinpoint where the malice was coming from, but he was even more sure that something would happen tonight.
He started having this feeling when he left the Fuji Jump's building yesterday and when he left the restaurant last night. And because of it, he drove fast and through strange routes until the feeling went away.
But now he felt again.
And the malice he felt was even more evident than yesterday.
After he gained his martial arts grandmaster proficiencies, his five senses reached the limit that a human being could achieve.
He also gained something even more precious, he acquired the fabled Sixth Sense.
Just like when you feel when someone is looking at you, Theo could have that feeling even more evident.
What Theo did not know was that three men were seating inside a coffee shop across the street while looking with malice towards him.
All of them had a rough-looking face, muscled body, and tall height.
"Is that him?" one of them asked, he seemed like the boss, everyone called him by his nickname, Hammer.
"Yes, boss." another replied, this was the one that negotiated with Peter, his nickname was Pipe.
"We tried following him yesterday, but we lost him. But we could see that his car is worth at least 1 million." the last one continued, his nickname was Horse.
"That is a great opportunity! We can earn more money if we get his car than from the job!" Hammer said with an evil grin.
Last night, his two gang members said that they had a job of threatening a young man, but they discovered that the young man had a luxurious car.
They forgot about the agreement with Peter and started planning how to steal Theo's car.
And they would anything to get that car, these men already killed people before, and they would kill again if necessary.
'The Spark' restaurant had another great night full of clients that night.
Shizuka, Gwen, and Kin already became full-fledged used with the rhythm of the kitchen and did not make any more glaring mistakes.
The kitchen staff had a decrease in the workload because of it. All of them were satisfied that they would not be so tired after the service.
"Are you going to stay back?" Ayia asked Theo after the service, she observed that he had a pensive face while seating in the lounge area.
"Yeah, I have some things to do upstairs." Theo smiled and looked at Ayia and Shizuka.
Ayia saw his smile, but she felt that today his smile was full of worry. His eyes seemed to be in deep worry about something.
She hesitated about asking about it, but in the end, she decided to let it go.
Ayia trusted Theo's judgment, but she could not help having the feeling that something was wrong when she left the restaurant with Shizuka.
"I have a bad feeling." Ayia said to Shizuka when they were driving home.
Shizuka did not say much for a while.
After she started working at the restaurant, she felt the joy of working.
At first, she wanted to work there to take care of Ayia. But now she understood why Ayia liked so much working there.
She did not want anything bad to happen either.
She trusted Ayia's instincts deeply.
"I can monitor the surveillance cameras around the restaurant and through Theo's route to his house from the restaurant." Shizuka said with her usual serious voice.
"Really?" Ayia was surprised that her sister would do that, but she accepted.
"Let's go home faster, then." Ayia said as she stepped on the gas pedal of her luxurious car.
Back at the restaurant.
After all the employees left that night, Theo still was seated in the lounge area.
His intuition said that something was going to happen.
He did not know what to do, this never happened to him before.
Suddenly, he stood up and had a determined face.
He made a decision by then.
First, he took his phone and made a phone call, after talking for a while he hangs up the phone.
Afterwards, he walked out of the restaurant.
The street that was busy during the day, looked much less crowded. Only some cars going to the nearby nightclub.
He walked towards the parking lot where his car was, he felt again the eyes of malice looking at him.
But now he could feel where they were.
Theo smiled and kept walking.
When he entered the parking lot, there was no one else there.
It was the perfect place to attack someone.
Theo was arriving next to his car when he heard the sound of a car driving in high speed towards his direction.
Theo turned and saw the car was getting close.
He was a little nervous, but he did not cower away.
He would not admit defeat!
The car stopped by his side with the sound of tires screeching.
Three men exited the car, with hooded heads and gloves.
But Theo was ready for them.
