15 Chapter Fourteen

Kenshin

Where will that woman go?

"Finally, I'm home." I looked at the speaker.

"Alexis, where have you been?" I asked.

"School."

"You just went to school now?"

"Yes."

She has missed many lessons like that?

"I know what you are thinking KC. It's our first day and our schooling has just started," said Alexis and went to her room.

"Don't think too in advance so for you not to be embarrassed." I looked at the speaker.

"I'm sorry. I thought her class started last week."

"Next time, you will ask first so you will not be embarrassed." -Nami

"Your so cold," I said.

"Thank you." once up to her room.

She didn't like that before. Not even a smile, I can not see in her now. It's been 5 years since the last time I saw her smile... a genuine one.

When will I see that smile again?

Jenthrix

I have to think. I need to focus. Expand your imagination Jenthrix.

"Arrggh." I got my hair cut.

Why can't I think of anything good to draw?! When I want to draw, I can't think of anything.

I looked at the DSLR camera on my study table. I took it then went back to bed. I looked at the pictures one by one and bingo. This is a good sketch.

And after I saw the picture, I start sketching.

I heard someone is knocking on my door. He is a big nuisance. I am about to finish what I am doing. I don't care about that person who is knocking, his hand would have hurt when he continue knocking.

The knock on my door got louder. Thank him I am done with what I am doing but he needs to hide because I'm going to kill him.

"You've been knocking so hard?! Can't that wait?!" I sighed at the maid.

"Sir sorry. Sir Stenard was the one who knocked last time. He was here earlier. He is waiting for you downstairs." said the maid.

"Tell him to wait," I said.

As I descended, I saw Stenard in the living room sitting pretty on the sofa.

"Make sure that is important," I said to him.

"I won't knock hard on your room if it doesn't matter." at the same time he lifts the folder he was holding.

"Is that it?" I ask.

"Yup, just amazing case," he said as I looked at the contents of the folder.

"The information about Natsumi is not very detailed," he added.

"I already said it. Just over and over?" said Stenard.

I read everything written here. Stenard is right, the information is limited and not yet detailed. She has an Art Café, rich, graduated from Iris High, has Japanese blood, and nothing else is written.

"Is this it?" I will ask.

"Stubborn. In a week you gave. That's all I saw." Stenard said irritatedly.

"You should still be looking," I said.

"Do I still have to repeat Jenth? That's all you see. You look like a broken license plate."

"And why did I become a broken plaque?" I ask.

"You keep repeating." I would have been thrown him when my cellphone suddenly rang.

Jeriel calling…

"Hello."

(I'm on my way to your house. I got something. Stenard texted me. See you.)

"Wh ---" he ended the call.

What?

I saw Stenard now watching a movie and eating. This one is really hungry. I will not let that in here.

"Brother!!!" I heard someone call me.

"Kei." that I suddenly hugged my brother.

"I picked him up at the airport. He planned all this." Jeriel said.

"How are you?" I asked Kei.

"I'm fine brother. You, how are you?"

"I'm fine. How's Mom and Dad?"

"They are fine. Dad is in America and Mom is going back here in the Philippines next week because the business trip is over." Kei said.

"This is the information." -Jeriel. He reached for the folder he was holding.

"I just go to my room." and Kei leaves us.

And as Stenard gave, so is what was written but added a little information about her.

Who are you Natsumi Harakazumi?

Natsumi

"Hi Tita Aiko, how are you?"

(I'm fine my dear. How about you?)

"I'm okay. I'm just a little tired from school."

(How's KC and Zy? Aren't you given a headache?)

"So far not. They still haven't changed." at the same time look at the sketch pad I was holding.

Tita Aiko and I just talked until she said goodbye because she said she would do something.

I lay down first, tired. I'm not used to it, I've been doing it for 3 years. I lay for 20 minutes before I could think of going down. Maybe the two are killing each other.

"Can I see?"

"That's mine. Brother KC!"

I was just on the stairs when I heard the two.

"Are you good at drawing?" Drawing? Alexis?

"Give me back the sketch pad brother." Alexis was annoyed.

I sat on the sofa. It seems that these two did not notice me.

"Brother, I'm still studying! That's mine!"

"Will you study this? Sketch pad? Books and lessons are studied not sketch pad."

"Brother, you're so stubborn. I'll scratch all of you cars."

"You can't do that. I'll replace all your scratches with new ones." and the two are already chasing.

They didn't see me. Three of them will annoy me now. I just focused my attention on reading. I will soon finish this Beautiful Creatures.

"Give me that brother or else I will kick you where it hurts."

"You can't do that. Haha."

"Arrgghh !!"

"What's happening here?"

"Naturally, KC is teasing Alexis again," I said without even looking at Zeke.

"Nothing changed."

"Like you."

"Tss. I just go to my room." and he walked away.

"And Nami... Tita Megumi called."

Has she called yet? What for? For me to suffer emotionally again? I walked away to avoid them but then again they will call to check me?

I no longer noticed what was happening around me. All I can think about now is how I can escape the life I am trying to escape.

All I can do now is to wait for what will happen next.
