A person to love

Oh Angie

Rose is with Desire for only five days or so, but attached to her like a lifesaver jacket. Desire is the best of the friend she can have, a family kind of thing she is missing, most important a loyal one. The appreciable thing was she understands the bonding between the brother and sister, the love they have. Desire never once tried to come in between them or make herself superior in some kind and this to such extent that Rose worries about. But in Desire's eyes, she respects Rose as she has known her for generations. Her admiration towards Rose increased when she found that Rose is the only family figure in Xavier’s life and she had cared for him like a mother. Though Desire noticed that she cares for him a little too much, from his favorite cuisine till his favorite color, it’s only that in the house. Xavier is lucky to have a sister like Rose. 

All fake friends Rose had earlier were in a goal to make their way to her brother's bed. That is why she is in a habit of not staying with a person for too long. As she has decided that she will not let her brother affect because of her lifestyle or anybody's. Rose was in a constant chase to look for an ideal girl for his brother secretly as he turned 25, but she never gained success in that.  But now she is too happy for the patience and the fate factor that the fortune relinquished them.

Seeing Desire roaming around their house, she knew it was worth the wait. Rose settled on the couch as Desire presently was in the kitchen, to make hot chocolate for three of them, but she did not know that. Rose was strict to tell that she is not here to spend time in the kitchen but Desire finds a way to the work anyhow. 

Rose and Xavier were happy that Desire is comfortable with them in such a brief span. Her behavior was as if they have been with each other lifelong.

The love not remained hidden from Rose, which she sees in her brother’s eyes. His hidden gazes at her were too visible to everyone except Desire. The way he laughs at her silly jokes and sweet demands were straight facts for the housekeepers that Desire may be the future mistress of the house. 

Rose noticed how his brother, who has no education in love, stay close to the Desire for her to pay attention to him. It was cute to see a masculine oozing man trying so hard to get the girl’s attention he wants.

At times, Rose got scared of her brother’s love, she knows he loves very few of person but deeply and she did not want Desire to give him any poor memories after taking his heart. 

“Here’s the hot chocolate,” Desire's voice interrupted her thoughts. Seeing chocolate on her face and on cloths, Rose knew she fled for the kitchen today. 

“Why did you let her go in the kitchen, Xavi? Where are all maids gone?” Rose scolded her brother. The housekeeper standing behind looked down at his feet. But before she can scold him, Desire came in between and showed her starry eyes. 

Rose sighed in response and took the cup.  

“Like she listens to me,” replied Xavier from the corner. It was clear that he was not happy either, for Desire to be in the kitchen, but how can he scold her when she asks something from him with those pouty lips. 

In his sense, Desire should be with him, in his arms all times.

“Then make her,” Rose mumbled quietly just for Xavier’s ears. 

Xavier blushed at how his sister can hear his thoughts aloud and even the naughty and sadist ones too. He was thankful that his sister does not repeal from it, moreover, give him ideas. Few times Rose had told him to tell Desire that “She is his”, clearly. As she knew Desire is certainly dumb with this love feeling, dumber actually.

“Don't worry, just have it. And then I have to go home,” Desire said cutely, giving the chocolate mug to Xavier.

But her cuteness had a null effect. 

Rose turned to see Xavier. 

It would not take a genius that the Xavier's mood faded to the worst. He didn’t want her to leave, ever.  

Rose knew it was too early, and they just called Desire to spend time with them, but now Xavier is in no mood to spare her.

And what his brother wants, he gets.

Rose put the mug down to persuade Desire to stay, but the doorbell cut her words. Desire and Rose went up to open the door, but nobody showed up. Then Desire’s eyes fall on the cute little thing in the box. 

“Rose, look,” Desire called out.  

It was the white cute furry cat in a cardboard box. A name tag ‘Angie’ was hanging over on a side with a kept wool ball inside of it. Desire was a little away from the box. Rose kneeled and looked for an address or anything. Not finding a clue, she took the cart and start taking it in the house. 

“What was it?” Xavier asked, mainly because it was a quiet time that two girls have moved out and he thought maybe Desire gone from there only. 

Rose was about to introduce the cat, but the furry being jumped out to the ground and stretching herself. Desire panicked from it, jumped to Xavier’s arm. The tension of Xavier of having an animal in the house turned to a quiet splendid opportunity. 

“Can this cat stay?” Rose asked her brother. She knew Xavier was not a fan of cute animals, but she needs it to be here until she finds a suitable home for the cat. 

Excited Xavier who was hugged by Desire gave his sister an approved sign, “definitely”. 

Rose giggled, seeing Desire clutching his brother.

He unquestionably cannot ask for more, Rose thinks in her mind.

“You scared of animals?” Rose asked Desire. 

Desire nodded, “I had a dark past regarding them”.   

The bold Angie quickly turned to Xavier and start circling his legs. 

“See,” Desire said as she hid her face in his chest. Xavier, if could bribe the cat, would have done so. Not even did an effort to stop the cat circling him, but tried to show his palm to the cat to play with it. 

It was strange for Rose that the cat found Xavier the most interesting one in the room as he has a dark threatening aura.  But if he was happy with it, she is more than happy.
