CHAPTER 32: JAMIE’S GANG

Yohan didn’t react right away. It took him a few seconds to process what he was seeing.

"Wait here," he said calmly, taking a step forward.

Mia quickly grabbed his hand. "Where are you going? We should call the cops."

From inside the shop came the sound of chaos—shattering glass, splintering wood, and muffled voices. Yohan could tell they were destroying everything.

"I can’t just stand here while they wreck my parents’ massage parlour," he said, his voice tight with anger. "If I wait for the police, it might be too late."

Before Mia could protest again, Johan pulled free and pushed the door open.

The scene inside made his chest tighten. The reception area was completely trashed. The furniture was ripped apart, chairs and tables reduced to broken legs and jagged pieces. Paintings that once decorated the walls lay in torn canvases on the ground. Even the brand new television he had bought was smashed, its cracked screen reflecting his heartbreak.

"My TV!"

Fortunately for him it seemed like they hadn’t gotten inside the rooms, only the kitchen and the reception area. But just seeing this alone was enough to make his blood boil.

"That’s enough," he said firmly.

The three guys that had hardly noticed his presence stopped their destruction to face him, before one more emerged from the back of the kitchen area.

"Who are you people and what do you want?"

"Is this the punk?" One of them asked after giving him a quick scan.

"It has to be, we just have to rough him up a little bit so don’t take it too far," another with a crow bar said, stepping forward.

Yohan sighed, "Seems like I’ll have to beat the answers out of you,"

Outside the shop Mia called the police and was waiting anxiously,

"What if they don’t make it here before something happens to Yohan?" She was worried but there was nothing else she could do about it.

Jamie, her boyfriend along with Dave and a few others arrived, stepping down from their bikes...

"Hey babe," Jamie said with a grin, ignoring the noise that was coming from inside the shop.

Seeing Jamie there Mia immediately suspected that they were involved with whatever was happening.

"Jamie stop this right now please," she begged.

"Stop what? I’m not doing anything," he scoffed, sharing a laugh with the rest of his guys.

"I know this has to be you, Yohan hasn’t done anything wrong," she started crying as she begged.

"Stop crying like this, you are making me look like a bad guy. I already said I don’t know anything about this... sheesh," he said with a sarcastic tone.

Just then one of the guys literally flew out the window, completely shattering the already broken glass. He remained conscious and got up almost immediately, rushing towards Jamie.

"Boss! That guy... he is a monster!!!" He said breathlessly. His face was completely beaten up and his body was completely bruised all over.

The fear in his eyes and voice was enough to strike caution into Jamie and the rest of his men.

Yohan came out shortly after, holding on to another one of the men by the throat pulling him along like a dog. He was also well beaten while Yohan barely had a few scratches.

Seeing Yohan completely unharmed and his men beaten to the extent that they were cowering in fear, Jamie clicked his tongue annoyed.

"So it actually was you?" Mia asked, taking a step backwards from him.

"What did you expect me to do when you two were hanging out alone, even going out on a date together!" Jamie grabbed her wrist.

"But... I work there," Mia said, at the same time reminded of what happened earlier that day.

"Well now that the place is destroyed you won’t have to work there anymore,"

Yohan walked up to them, "you know if you were going to do something like this you should at least be bold enough to do it yourself,"

Dave stepped forward, "Who the fuck do you think you are?"

"And you, why can’t you just go find work at a different place. I really don’t understand people like you guys that just feel they can get everything they want by bullying other people, why are you feeling so entitled for things that aren’t even yours?"

"Don’t get too cocky, you feel you can give me a lecture just because you beat up a few of our men, I’m going to fuck you up,"

Before ending the statement Dave had already swung his bat, hitting Yohan on his forehead sending him to the ground.

"Yohan!" Mia screamed wanting to rush to his side but Jamie held her from moving.

"Leave that loser and let’s go," Jamie said, pulling her away by the wrist while she struggled.

"Say something now tough guy," Dave mocked Yohan standing above him.

With a hit like that he expected Yohan to pass out, but he realized he was wrong when Yohan suddenly opened his eyes.

He grabbed Dave’s leg with one hand and yanked it, pulling him forward causing him to lose balance and fall to the ground.

Yohan immediately pounced on him and began delivering a furry of punches until Dave stopped moving.

"Stop!" One of the other guys attempted to kick him off of Dave but Yohan shifted his body easily dodging the kick and punching him in-between his legs, right in his balls.

The pain was like anyone would have imagined as the man screamed and grabbed his nether region. Using the opening Yohan landed another blow knocking the man out.

The rest of them charged at him but Yohan took out all three of them in an instance, he then turned to Jamie who was still standing in place,

"Only you left," he said with a small grin.

Jamie tensed up immediately, it was clear at this point that Yohan wasn’t ordinary.

"W-who the hell are you?" he asked clearly shaken.

The point that Dave had struck now had blood trickling down from it, making Yohan look even more sinister as he stepped forward.

"I thought you already knew that when you sent your men to destroy my shop?"
