My meeting with Quincy and Nena was short because Quincy isn’t a fan of staying in public places for long. I wonder why he even decided to bring Nena to me?
He isn’t the type to listen to anyone. Moreover I don’t understand why Nena is attached to him while I’m not? It’s a really strange relationship but I guess Nena is the one keeping us together.
“We’re leaving.” Quincy turned to leave when I stopped him.
“Drop Nena here. I’ll bring her back at night.” He turned his head and looked at me, then quietly looked at Nena. Like usual I couldn’t read his expressions. His eyes didn’t show much emotion nor did his face but I really missed Nena.
I’ve been so busy with university and my studies I rarely see her.
“Nena.” He looked at my little world, “Do you want to stay with her?” Nena didn’t answer. She looked between me and Quincy while she searched for her answer.
Sometimes I feel like Nena is small for her age. She should be taller and more outgoing but I don’t see that in her. Maybe it’s because of Quincy or maybe it’s because of me. I’m not able to give her the time I should as her family.
After a few moments when Nena didn’t give an answer Quincy decided to let her down but when he was about to put her down Nena held his shirt’s collar just before her feet touched the ground.
“I wanna stay with you!” He was a bit surprised at her answer but even I wasn’t expecting her to say that. She’s always been ready to stay with me and didn’t let any chance of spending time with me slip by.
Quincy held her up again in his arms and started walking away but then stopped and looked back at me.
“You-” He started and I felt a sudden chill down my spine, “Are you hiding something from me?”
My heart skipped a beat and I held my shirt bottom, “No. I have nothing to hide.”
“...” He looked at my hands, “Is that so?” His voice was calm yet cold. I wonder why after all these years I still haven’t gotten used to him. I looked down as well. I was wearing the ring he gave me although I’m not very attached to it. I wear it for Nena.
He turned and began to walk again, “Remember one thing.” He spoke as he walked, “I don’t like lies.”
“I know.”
As he continued to walk he glanced back at me, “Do you now?” He said those words as if he knew I was lying to him.
This.
This behaviour of his always scared me.
I held my breath while he walked away and instead of looking at him I looked at Nena to calm down. Nena on the other hand hugged Quincy and soon they were out of sight.
Nena…
I felt a bit empty.
When did she start getting so chummy with Quincy? Don’t tell me!
I shot my eyes in the direction where they went.
Has she started seeing him as a fatherly figure??!!
No!
I can’t let that happen!
I’m taking her away as soon as I’m done with my education and get a job!
I clenched my fists in determination and began to walk again when suddenly I got a call.
I got my phone out of my bag to look who it was.
Ruda?
This little bitch! He was missing the whole day and calls me now? But well good timing. I can get my mind off things.
I swiped the answer button and held the phone to my ear.
“What?” I asked.
“There’s a huge problem! I need your help!”
“Where were you the whole day?”
“I’m asking you to help me and you’re asking me where I was?”
“You’re not gonna tell me? I’m hanging up.”
“No wait!!” I snickered, “I was at the meeting. You see it’s kind of complicated but me and my brother are both in talks about who takes the position of the head. I was in that meeting.”
Who will be the head? Of the company Yohan works at? Wait. I never knew they owned a company...
“Was Yohan there too?”
“Yeah and well we aren’t on the best of terms so it was a bit awkward. I’ll tell you more about it if you agree to help me.”
“Help you with what?”
“I’m supposed to have dinner with Yohan today because our father is forcing us but that would be really awkward. Come with me. Please.”
“Forcing you to have dinner? Why?”
“It’s to show people we as a family get along. You know all the shit where people start taking sides when they find out there is conflict between families. Like I said. The relation between me and him is a bit strange.”
“I see. I guess I can go.”
“Wow really! I didn’t think you’d agree so easily.” He was a bit surprised but well he doesn’t know that I now live there, “I’ll come and get you. Where are you?”
“I’m outside the university.”
“Okay! I’ll be there in fifteen minutes! Wait for me!”
***
Both of us were at Yohan’s home before him and decided to play some board games while we waited for him.
“Why is he late though?” I asked as I rolled the dice.
“Well currently he takes care of all the affairs of the company.”
“So basically he’s the head?” I moved my soldier on the board.
“Yup.” He shaked the dice in his hands.
“And there is still confusion over who will take over the position even though he’s doing a good job?”
He rolled the dice and sighed, “It’s a bit more complicated than that but for now that’s now let’s go with that.”
I took the dice , “For now? Explain it to me more.” I rolled the dice.
“I can’t, not until Yohan decides to tell you.”
I didn’t move my soldier, “Tell me what?” I looked at him.
“...” He glanced at me and then looked down again, “You’re not moving your soldier?”
“Don’t change the subject. Answer my question.” He didn’t, instead he tried moving my soldier on my behalf but I slapped the top of his hand quite hard.
“Ow!”
“Answer me.”
He clicked his tongue, “I can’t. It’s not my place to say but I promise. When he does tell you that ‘one’ thing I’ll tell you everything you want to know.”
It’s the same.
Almost the same condition Yohan put in front of me.
“I’m going to die of curiosity. When will he tell me whatever he is going to tell me?” My eyes pleaded for an answer from Ruda but he just shrugged. “Ruru~” I showed him my cute face.
He backed away, “I can bring up the topic I guess…”
“I love you.”
He pretended to gag,“Stop. I really will puke.”
I snickered and slapped his arm when the front door opened. Yohan came in, looking a bit exhausted.
“Hey,” He greeted us.
“Hi” I replied.
“Hey…” Ruda greeted him back and then there was an awkward silence. I could tell they both didn’t have anything to talk about.
“Ahmm, “ Yohan scratched the back of his head, “Order whatever you guys want to eat and I’ll come back after changing.”
We both nodded.
***
In the end we ordered chinese. I sat on the dining table chair while Ruda and Yohan set the table.
I glanced at Ruda with a certain look in my eyes. He cleared his throat as he placed the plates on the table.
“You like animals don’t you!” He suddenly asked me and I was bewildered. Why is he asking me this? Shouldn’t there be a question for his brother? I had a weird expression on, till the time I noticed Yohan was interested in the question too. He was looking at me in anticipation.
“Yea… I like animals.”
Both the brothers smiled.
Weird…
“Are you a dog person?” Ruda asked again while Yohan transferred the chowmein from the box to the dish.
“Well I guess. They’re loyal and cute.”
“Right!” Ruda jumped in excitement. What the hell is wrong with him? “Then do you like wolves? Wolves are very dog-like too!”
“What?” I scoffed. My expressions changed to disgust as Yohan was bringing the dish over, “I hate wolves!” They both froze in their places.
“W-why?” Ruda looked back at Yohan in horror as I continued.
“They’re the most disgusting animals on this planet. If I ever see one I’m gonna shoot it right there. They’re gross and vile! I hate them so Goddamn much!” My words were full of spite. I’ve always hated wolves but I was soon brought out of my hate filled thoughts when the dish Yohan was holding crashed on the floor.
“Oh no…” I heard a whisper from Ruda’s mouth as some veins on Yohan’s neck turned purple and he began to cough. His legs gave out and he collapsed to his knees coughing up blood.
I stood up in horror.
“What’s happening to him!” I looked at Ruda who was already by his side as he coughed up even more blood.
I began to run towards him too when Yohan looked at me and yelled, “Stop!!! Don’t come near me!!” I froze in my place. All the coughing and throwing up blood had made his breathing ragged. He was having a hard time even trying, “Don’t come near me…” He repeated the words but softer this time and then collapsed in his brother’s arm.
Ruda immediately picked him up and began to leave. I tried to follow him but Ruda looked back at me rather sharply.
“Go back to the dorm.”
“But!”
“I have to get him to the hospital. You can’t come! Go.Back.” With that he left the house. And I stood there in utter confusion.
I had no idea what had happened and I had no idea why both of them turned so cold.
Their reactions didn’t make any sense.
I looked down at the floor. At the blood Yohan had coughed.
It was oddly black… There was only a little red in it.
…
“Go back?” I whispered the words sadly, “Where?”
