Your New Friend - Killugon [ HXH ]

Chapter 11 - Taxi ride

Killua POV

[ Airport of York New - 3:22 PM ]

I got off the plane, with my phone in my right hand, looking at the message I recieved.
It contained Gon's location and how to get there.
A taxi was the fastest way, I know my own feet would do a much better job...
But I needed to stay unnoticable, so I decided to take one of the taxi's that waited for customers in front of the airport.

"Where do you need to be young man?"
I gave him a piece of paper with the location of the place Gon is temporarily staying.
He nodded slighty and started the car.
After driving for I guess 20 minutes the car came to a stop.
"I apologize, it seems there is a traffic jam, you're not in an hurry I assume?"
"No." I said as I continued to look out of the window.

The driver scratched his chin and continued to talk.
"Are you visiting someone?"
I rested my face on my hand and answered his question.
"Kind of."
"Hmm, a suprise visit maybe?"
"You could call it that."

I thought it trough.
Gon doesn't know I'm searching for him, and he probably already forgot about my excistence.
would he even remember me when I stand in front of him?
A suprise visit eh...
"Are you visiting your girlfriend...?"
The driver carefully asked.

"No, just a friend who forgot about my whole existence." I hissed.
The driver looked kind of confused.
"Oh sorry, I didn't mean it come out like that!" I said as I finally showed him my whole face instead of only the side.
He smiled gently back.

"It's okay, I've been in the same situation too, let me tell you this, although you haven't seen each other for a long time, when you finally get to meet each other again in person it will feel like you two were never apart."

I said nothing for a while.
"Do you really think that...? I mean... my friend is kind of stupid."
He laughed at my response.
"The stupid ones are usually the ones who would never forgot someone who left a deep impression, I guess that would make me stupid too hehe."
I smiled at the kind words of the taxi driver.

"Thanks for the talk old man."
"I'm not that old you know!"
"You remind me of someone I know when you say that."
"It is the truth you know."
I took a good look at his face, lighty tanned skin with dark freckles and wrinkels, chestnut brown eyes.
His head looked like an egg since he was bald.
I narrowed my eyes while still looking.
"you're gonna look like this someday too." He mumbled.

I leaned against the door with my hand behind my head.
"But that day is still far away."
He laughed softly and contiued to talk.
"It seems the traffic jam is gone, want me to ride faster?"
"Yeah, I want to get over this fast."
The car started moving faster as it passed other cars.
"You sure you don't want to wear a seatbelt?" He asked.
"Don't need one."

Suddenly I felt a shock through my body as the door of the car I was leaning against opened it self, letting me fall out of the car.
"Boy!"
