Chapter 6

“I was also shocked when I saw him… but ever since that incident he never wakes up”

Shaun stated. Standing as he had his way to see his father. I can clearly see how big his eye bags are. I bet he also had a hard time… after all… I know that it is just the two of them after he lost his mother.

“What did the doctor tell you? Is there really no way to help him?”

Hearing how there was a brief silence, Drake was there to hold my hand. Thankfully he was there… it is always him supporting me…

“They did what they could, but even the most advanced technology we had couldn’t do any help at all. He needs time to get well. And if there is a miracle… he can wake up”

“A miracle?”

So that is how bad Mr. Sebas’s situation is?? But… I heard it was an accident, how can it be this severe?

“And there was something he said before he finally lost consciousness and fell into a coma”

Looking at us, Shaun was never this mad. I saw him like this…

“He is dangerous”

What does he mean he? Who is he pertaining to exactly?

“Who is he?”

“I don’t know, but there is something I am sure of, this isn’t a mere accident”

Looking back at his father, Shaun clenches the railing on the side of Mr. Sebas’s bed.

“You mean someone planned this?”

“Yes, someone is behind this. And he isn’t the simple guy. Because even my father sees him as someone dangerous…”

I look at Drake, he is also deep in his thoughts.

“But who would do that?”

“I think you have someone on your mind, don’t you?”

I did not dare look at him. Indeed, I have someone I was thinking of. But wouldn’t it be a thoughtless opinion? I mean, he would think I have a grudge against Marco and all…

“I do have… but I think it would be pointless”

“Marco Hinsen”

Drake then stated. Eyes looking at Shaun. I can feel how his hand holds me a bit tighter.

“Drake”

“Yes, I also think of the same thing”

So they also think it was Marco. After all, is there anyone else we can think of other than him? It was him who suddenly appeared in our life and turn things to shit…

Shaking my head, I know it won’t be easy.

“But we have no evidence on how he is related to that”

“For now we don’t. But we can find it… no, more than that, I think it is you who knows about it. Don’t you think so? Kianna?”

Looking at me, why is he so sure that I can? Although I am willing to do what I can to give Marco what he deserves, I am still lacking in many things. I need time and most of all…

“Don’t think too much Kianna. You are not going to fight alone. I am just asking your help”

“No, it is my fight. If this isn’t an accident but a plan that Marco did, isn’t it my job and responsibility to bring out the bad deeds of my dear half-brother?”

Drake looks at me. I know it would be dangerous. I know that it won't be easy. But that doesn’t mean I should back out and not do something.

If I don’t do anything, I might regret it… just like what they said… I need to find out the truth. I need to end all of this…

“So Shaun, Drake, please give me your assistance”

There was a small smile to be seen on Shaun’s face. But as for Drake, he seems worried. Cupping his cheeks, I smiled.

“I will be fine… we will be fine…”

That is what I said, that is what I planned it to be. And that is what I would want to achieve.

“And who the hell are you?”

Facing Drake, it is the opposite of where the entrance door was located. Maybe that is the reason why the person who just came didn’t realize who I was. But that voice, that tone…

Just hearing it is enough for me to know who the owner of that voice was. I can’t help but smile as I feel much joy about it. But my excitement made me forget what she had said at first.

“What are you doing to my friend’s husband?!”

Shouting at the top of her lungs as if she caught her lover cheating on her, I was a bit thankful that this room was on the east side since… I know for sure it would have caught such a commotion.

“Seki…” Shaun called her but it seems like she is not calming down any time soon,

“Who is she? Drake? Does Kianna know about it? And you Shaun, how can you let them do this? Who is she? Why are you not answering? Huh??!”

She was mad. Mad at the fact that another girl is touching Drake like this when Drake is her friend’s lover.

Isn’t it cute?

I am no longer using the gadget so it was turned off. For sure, Seki would determine what my voice sounds like.

For sure I want to tease her much more but it makes me feel bad to make her be mad like this…

“Seki, pfft, long time no see”

I mumbled giggling as I looked at where she was. Slightly waving my hand, I saw her surprised face.

There, I can’t explain if it is joy or surprise that is written all over her face. Maybe both? I am not really sure. But the one thing I am sure of, she rushes hugging me so tight.

“You, you really…ahh, Why are you so careless? Can’t you be a little careful even just for a while??”

Hugging me so tight, I hug her back. It's really been so long since I last saw her. I missed her, and I miss my friends… but more than that, judging by how my life has become, it would be hard to be back to what we all used to be.

“I missed you”

Oh how I wish for things to be better… I really want for these problems to end…

“I missed you too, but really, Kianna, you scared the hell out of me… I really thought I would have to bury Drake with her blonde lover… why the hell did you-“

And she started with her scolding. I mean, it was fun tho. I think even Shaun finds it amusing. He was smiling as he watched how her girlfriend was having fun.

Maybe it lessens his stress somehow…

However, we were asked to be out of the room since she was being a little too loud. I missed her so much. I really do. I just hope that... she will find happiness every day too.

Someone’s POV

Strange, I don’t know her… yet, why do I feel like… I have seen her somewhere before…?

“Bea?”

Mumbling that name, nothing comes out of my mind, strange… what is this feeling of familiarity?

“You still came? I already told you that there is no need, Francis”

Just like what it always was, his unit is still a mess.

“Nikolai, you should really clean up your space. I won’t be surprised if I see a rat living in your garbage”

Pulling his blanket, he just hid himself. This guy…

Since that time he was dumped by Seki- I mean, Ysekiel… he became like this. But isn’t it him to be blamed for this outcome?

“This is really why I hate being affiliated with that kind of feeling. It really does make people hopeless”

“Shut up Francis, just leave me alone”

“Yeah yeah, so be it”

But how can I leave him like this? I don’t know if it is because of Rocco, but… I just can’t bring myself to leave someone in this state…

“Hah, love really makes people dumb”
