My Boyfriend's Brother

This man.

Still in a flash back

Meghan POV.

Life is becoming more complicated compared to what to I thought. This is not to do with the death of my parents. The truth is am trying so hard cope up with that hard situation. Some one who had two parents who loved me so much but eventually am trying to live without them.

Ethan has been of great importance to me. I still blame my self so much for not learning to love him even upto this point. Ethan has been nothing but good to me. He is a good friend and boy friend even though I don't love him. No no , don't quote me wrong I love him but not in a way that he wants me to love him.

I love him like a brother I didn't have . However not like a boyfriend that he wants me to love him.

The last few weeks have gone just like that. Nothing much happening at home .Jeff never stops teasing me whike Ethan is trying so hard to express his love to me.

It is finally time to get back to compus. I want to make my dreams and those of my parents come true..As I am resting on the couch one evening ,the door bell rings . Since I am the only one at home I suppose it is either Jeff or Ethan. I stand up heading to the door however hoping it is Ethan and not Jeff .

On opening the door however , it is inside a messenger boy. I look at him puzzled wondering what brings him here. Automatically my mind thinks about only one things, he has something for Jeff .

“ Jeff is not around but I can receive anything on his behalf." I say to the man.

“i am here to deliver something to Miss Miss Meghan.," the messenger boy says.

“ I am the one . " I say but wondering where this is from. He hands me the big envelope and then I sign him going away Afterwards.

After receiving the envelope, I quickly head to go and sit down on the couch that I was previously siting on. I go on to open the envelope . Inside ii are papers. What I see shocks me to the core. I can't believe this. No way , this can't be. I stand up quickly pacing around the room for sure not believing what am seeing .

just then there is another knock on the door , I move quickly to go and see what who is there. Right now I am not thinking twice any more. My only hope has been shattered now. The only hope that I had is shattered. The hope of getting to my feet once again.

On opening the door , I don't wait to even take the opportunity to see who is there. I do the first thing that comes into mind. I immediately fall in the arms of whoever is at the door immediately crying out loud. Crying so much . I just don't know what has happened to me.

I cry for some time until when slowly get to my senses pulling away immediately from the hugs of my mysterious comforter who is none other than Jeff. No way , this can't be I look everywhere but him. Jeff stands at one point looking composed as usual but showing how amused he is by my sudden reaction.

Right now all I want is for the ground to open up and swallow me inorder to save me from tye embrassment that am feeling right now.

“ What is wrong with you ?" He asks me his voice cold as usual . I don't answer anything to him. What I do is to look in the direction of the scattered papers on the floor forsure not even knowing what to do .I look in that direction hoping that he can know what I mean right now.

“ What are those papers doing lying on the ground Won't you for once be organized. Quickly begin to remove all of them . " He roars at me making me threatened . This man is more heartless than I can even think. On shaky legs I move and bend them to begin picking the papers one at a time.

“ Be quick there are more tasks that I want you to do " he says still his voice on top .

“ How many times have I told you to stop treating my girl friend like she is some piece of trash" Ethan comes in saying so angry. I have never seen him get this angry. He moves quickly heading towards his brother . Knowing what might happen between the two brothers.

I immediately call him just to avoid the possibility of something nasty.

“ Ethan !" He immediately turns to me . Without thinking, I stand up and run towards him and then giving him the biggest hug of my whole life . I have two reasons as to why I am doing this ; one is I was so frightened a few minutes ago when I was in this room all alone with Jeff who was nothing but acting all scary.

And the second reason is the way I saw him charge at his brother , I knew something terrible would happen between them and all would be my fault.

“ I need to talk to you,." I say to him still in his arms.

“ Let's talk in my bedroom." He says as he pulls away taking my hand so as we can leave the room.

“:Where are you going , you talk from here .?" Jeff thunders at us. oh ! Heavens some times he irritates more than he is supposed to be.

“i wanted you to see these." I say handing Ethan all the papers that were brought in the envelope earlier on tiady . He takes them and after looking at them for some time he sighs at what is contained in them.

“ How did this happen?" Ethan says for sure shocked as well as I was.

After the death of my parents mysteriously , Each property was taken over but I was definitely sure that I still had my trust fund that would enable me have my last few years at the University completed . What I don't understand is how did this eventually end to get to the point where there is completely nothing left in the bank account.
