5 Chap 5. Hallucinating my emotions

Alisha guided Astro whilst walking behind Tommy who was carrying Theo again.

"Holy shit, you live here?! This is like the royalty castle!" Theo said in awe of how brilliant the castle was, he looked at them in disbelief as Astro was raking his brain with ways to deny the fact that they were actually the royal family.

"We're just really well connected with the royal family, their nice personalities only elevated our business with eachother." Astro lied without any hesitation, Alisha went along with it as she gave Theo a nod to persuade him even more.

"If you're even more connected with the royal family, shouldn't you be overtaken with greed and the need for power?" Theo restorted, he didn't understand their kindness one bit. Plus, the nobles he has come across were almost always powerhungry and didnt give a fuck about those in a lower position than themselves.

"Not all nobles are like that, but you are right, many of the other nobles only want more money or power but I don't care about that. Those in a lower position than me should be helped whenever they can be, after all, we are all humans." Astro said with a warm smile appearing on his face, he truly loved the feeling of helping others, he just hated being taken advantage of due to his kind heart.

Theo looked towards Astro who had a warm smile on his face and felt a jolt in his heart, it was like a wake up call. A small wave of warmth spread across his chest, it made him feel nice.

"Anyway, you will stay in our guest room, its almost always ready to be used so no need for cleaning. We will then tell the cook to handle the food, I'm guessing his diet consists of soft foods." Alisha patted his shoulder to confirm his guess, and Theo thanked him.

"Tommy take him to the room next to mine, I may be blind but I have great hearing so I can text you if I hear anything weird, Alisha and I will go to Shanna now." Tommy felt like rejecting the idea but saw a determined look on his face causing him to go quiet and agree to his plan.

Alisha and Astro left them as they walked through the large open corridors, their destination being the kitchen.

It didn't take long before they made it to the kitchen, Shanna was trying out new dishes when Alisha saw her, she then waved her over.

"What can I help you with, your majesties?" She questioned with a curious voice, she hadn't had the young prince and princess come to her for ages so she wondered what had happened.

"Hiya Shanna! Can you whip up something that has these soft foods in it" Alisha greeted as she handed the list the doctor made over to Shanna.

"Hello Shanna, can you also address us by our names, and please spread the word about that. Id appreciate it alot." Astro continued, he was being extra cautious since he didn't want to be found out.

Shanna nodded to both of them before leaving, "She nodded by the way." Alisha whispered to Astro since Shanna didn't verbally agree.

Astro laughed, "I'm blind not stupid Alisha haha," Alisha only rolled her eyes.

"You can't see but I'm currently rolling my eyes at you." She said grumpily, this only caused him to laugh harder. "Pfft hahaha, your such a baby," he said when he heard her huff.

"I will leave you right here bish, don't test me." She threatened, Astro shut up straight away, "Fine fine, your no fun", He had a cheeky smile that made Alisha want to leave him there.

"Ugh, your a bish. We gotta wait here anyway since we're bringing the food over." She said as she went to sit on a stool near the kitchen island. Astro followed and felt around for a stool before sitting down too.

Meanwhile at the guest bedroom.

"Ugh, your annoying. Stop asking so many damn questions." Tommy commanded with a frustrated look on his face.

"Fineee, I just wanted to know some things since its boring here and you're just sitting there." Theo said as he laid sprawled out on a king sized bed, Tommy was sitting on the edge of the bed on the other side of the mattress.

"Fine, Astro has been blind his whole life, I'm 38 years old, Alisha is 13, the family that lives here are very kind and love their servants very much. Yes, I have a family, a son and wife, no Astro doesn't have any significant partner and Alisha does always act like that. Does that answer all your damn questions?!" Tommy answered all of his questions that he had previously asked, Tommy was staring into his eyes at the same moment.

"Wow.. your old hehe" Theo said making Tommy's vein burst. "And your a rude bitch, didn't anyone ever tell you not to ask a man his age?" Tommy retorted with a glare.

"Nah, I had no family to tell me that." Theo said as his attention drifted away from Tommy, Tommy felt a little bad for the boy so he tried to cheer him up, "Well now you do you little fuck, you remind of my son. His very sarcastic but I love him, just like Astro."

"Whats your son look like?" Tommy succeeded, he was able to make Theo think of something else!

Tommy patted his own back, making Theo look at him weirdly, "No takebacks." Was all he said, before continuing with:

"My son is adorable! His got light brown hair with cute chubby cheeks! And omg! His fingers are so smallll, his only short because his 7 but ahhhh, I would give up my life for him!" Tommy ranted like a teenage girl that was talking bout their celebrity crush.

Theo laughed at that thought, never had he thought that he would see a middle aged man act like a girl, Tommy continued with his rant and only finished when a knock was heard.

Theo was dead. He regretted his decision of asking what his son looked like, he honestly wanted to hug the person who knocked on the door.

'Why the fuck did I blush? Ugh, its probably because I haven't eaten in ages, now I'm hallucinating my own emotions' Theo thought as he calmed down.

Alisha had a bowl of porridge on a tray with a cup of milk next to it, Astro had his hand rested on Alisha's shoulder and his cane resting in his other hand.

Tommy stood up take the tray off Alisha and took it to Theo whose tummy was rumbling from the delicious smell filling the air.

"You need to start off with small portions, once you grow stronger your body will then be able to process larger amounts of food as well as harder." Astro explained, Theo replied with, "Thank you.." Small tears appeared in his eyes.

Never did he think that he would come across such generous people, nobles at that.

He quickly wiped his eyes to make it seem like he wasn't crying but Astro, the actual blind one, could tell he was touched by their generosity. Alisha and Tommy were too busy chit chatting about some random shit.

"Alisha, where is the damn bed, I need to sit down." Astro asked calmly, she had seriously left him standing near the door when she went to Theo and then she started her bloody conversation with Tommy.

"Pfft oops, go straight." She said before jumping right back into her conversations.

If Astro could roll his eyes right now, he would. He would also walk towards Alisha and shake her.
