"I had a change of heart. Chicken is love." I replied to brother Wenz.
"Pshh, chicken is love, duh!" Tsumu's older brother mimicked with teasing in his tone. When Lalaine and I finished, we went back to the room one by one. I remained there to talk to the three. "Tomorrow morning we will leave here. So, the three of you also need to go. Your bikes are found parking in the middle of the road and they put it in the garage. So just come with us when we go as well. in the garage. And one last thing. You'll sleep there in the guest room and don't you ever, ever do this again. Understand? " I spoke seriously to them and the three of them nodded immediately.
I accompanied them to their room. Vladmir and Minho are still in the same room. While Lalaine here is all alone in his room. We stopped in front of his room and I bid goodnight to him. Just as I was about to leave he quickly passed my waist approaching him.
He stares deeply into my eyes. I also did the same. I also stared back into his eyes but it gives me chills. Those pair of dark orbs of his are so deep. I fear ... if I dive in. I might never come up for air. The two of us stopped looking when someone suddenly coughed. I got startled and immediately wiped his hand that was holding my waist and walked away from him. s**t. It's grandpa!
I didn't dare to lay my eyes on grandpa. I was just staring at the floor. I could feel the intense atmosphere here.
"Young man," Grandpa said. I was horrified by the tone of his speech. He's angry! "Are you hitting on my granddaughter?"
"Yes sir. In a genuine way. Please, if you may, I want to court your granddaughter, sir." I know this is coming. I know it. But still! My whole face exploded in red. I'm a blast. I saw how grandpa smirk at Lalaine.
"You're quite a brave man. You've got guts to invade the house of the most powerful Yakuza in Japan, just for the woman you love." Smiling grandpa said to Lalaine. Huh, what is this? Why is grandpa acting like this?
"To be honest. You're the very first guy who got me intimidated." Smiling grandpa said again to Lalaine. He then took a bow.
"I'm honored to hear that, sir." Lalaine's words. Grandpa suddenly laughed.
"HAHA! Go and steal my granddaughter's heart. But be aware young man. She's got a heart surrounded by stones. Be the first one to warm her heart. And if you finally get her, don't you ever break her heart. Love her with all of your heart, or else you'll regret it in the end. " I was stunned by what grandpa said. He said it sincerely to Lalaine. And it hurt me a little bit in the last part grandpa said. So grandpa do regret it. "Yes, sir! Now that I finally know her background. I know for myself I didn't deserve her. That's why I will make myself better to deserve you, Vivien." Lalaine said in a sincere tone, smiling warmly at me. My cheeks blushed quickly.
Grandpa, to be honest ... My heart ain't surrounded by stones anymore. He already got my heart, from the very first day we met. The morning came quickly and now we were preparing to go home. We are inside the garage. I'm still wearing my pajamas I wore last night. I don't have a pack on my clothes because I can only sleep in the car.
I think Kela Minho is so big. They're starting their engine's, revving it up and making noise inside the garage. Lalaine's checking his motor parts before starting his motor. I noticed grandpa entering and I slightly bow at him.
"Be careful going home, son." Grandpa's words to mom. Mom nodded in response while giving grandpa a hug.
"Well, we'll go first. Be careful here too." Dad said to grandpa. Smiling grandpa nodded in response. Mom and dad got into the car and my brothers are also slowly getting inside the car.
I reach for my pockets and I feel something inside. I took it out and was surprised at what I saw. It's Lalaine's handkerchief he used to cover up my wound, back in that fight! I quickly turned to them and they were getting ready too. I immediately ran towards Lalaine and handed out his handkerchief.
"I just have a request," he said before after Fire had stopped him.
"Stop it. I won't accept any favor you ask. I'll do what I think I should do."
"I may not be like you think I would save this world. Because I've failed at that once before. So, I have a favor to ask."
"Raine Jade!" A very calm voice came out from her mouth as she looked at her in the eye.
A very similar image and figure of her appeared in front of her. They stared.
"Don't you dare spill. Another. Word!"
She clearly said that to warn her but she still did it.
"I want you to protect him, instead of me. I want you to save him so he could live a normal life in the future. Then this tire, do that. Take him as your apprentice."
"I'm begging you ..."
Fire didn't really have anything to say. He did not agree in its favor but he also did nothing in the end.
That was the last thing he remembered. That is the remaining memory that will never be erased.
She just doesn't understand why is she protecting that human boy. Why? Why, Raine? Raine's POV
I OPENED my eyes. I've had enough of this!
I went out to open the side window, next to my room. I can't sleep so I'll disturb someone first.
"Christian?" I tilted my head outside to look around. "Are you there?"
It wasn't long before he appeared in front of me. He was wearing a cloak but I recognized him immediately.
His eyes are glowing as his body floats. "You called?
I nodded. Wondering what he was up to. The last time we talked didn't go well. Why is he acting cool?
He landed on the window and temporarily sat there first.
"So?" He removed his cloak. "Why did you call me at this time?"
"I can not sleep."
He raised an eyebrow. Probably wondering, it's one o'clock at midnight.
"I often really can't sleep at night. The doctor said it was one of the side effects of the accident," I explained.
He patiently wait for more explanation but I just eyed him saying, "that's it". "Just tell me, it's okay. G-I just want to get lost."
"Are you thinking of anything?"
"Y-yeah ..." I pulled the hair off my face and combed my finger back. "I'm the only one at home right now."
He wondered. "Where did your companions go?"
"Didn't you say my parents had to do something there in the place where you worked so they left? That's why you're here and watching over me."
He blinked and averted his eyes, "I know that. And I mean, where's your brother? They didn't say you weren't with him."
"Ahh," I said when I could get what he meant. "My brothers and sisters, they are doing a school project in another house."
