Once they had gotten to the top, they put Michael down on a chair that had been prepared.
"Take aff the gag. He might suffocate." The leader said and the guy who put on the gag, enjoying how Michael was defenseless and powerless, clicked his tongue.
"And I was just starting to enjoy the peace." He said but took down the gag anyway.
"Cough, cough!" Michael coughed like someone with a parched throat.
"Don't overreact, you just had your mouth gagged for a few minutes." He sounded hateful, and Michael found that irritating, so he did not hold back from retorting.
"Try getting gagged without having the chance to catch your breath and carried with your head facing down, if you'll still say the same thing."
The remark was rude and uncalled for but the rogues ended up laughing at their fellow.
"Wow, he just told you a true fact. You shouldn't belittle a man's struggle." One of the others said as they laughed, causing him to go red in the face.
He couldn't take this insult.
