8. Kevin Hart vs. Karl Sinclair

Kevin's POV:

My hand looked ugly now. It's giving me some kind of deja Vu. How many days will it takes to heal!

Sigh~

Everyone was gone one by one. Just Klem, Kark and Pier left behind in my room.

Pier took two strides towards me and sat on the bed side.

"Does it hurt too much?" Shs asked while holding up my hand carefully. "Try to move your fingers.." she move my fingers back and forward. "... No broken finger.." she murmur to herself.

She looked up to see my face. My eyes were teary. Obviously because I was feeling pain..

She was biting her lips. I hate to look her like this, I know exactly what's she thinking. Now she's going to blame herself.

"I am sorry Vin... I should not have come..." She looked down in embarrassment as if everything is her fault.

Hearing this I snatch back my hand. She looked up, surprised.

"Don't touch me!" I utter

"Vin I..." She was dumbfounded.

"If you're going to blame yourself for everything then go away...."

"..."

"Hey Klem take this fish." I said, pushing Pier away slightly.

"Vin?" She looked at me hurt.

"...just go away Pier....and take this sadist too... And don't came back. I don't care about you anymore. Go live your life happily. I don't want you anymore." I said to her face and looked away.

"Vin... don't say that..." her voice breaks "I... I am sorry... He..he didn't meant to hurt you... I swear... he just got angry and then..." She was now holding the hem of my shirt.

"I said go away. Karl you can take her. Do whatever you want. Keep her in your house or any other place ... From now on I don't have anything to do with her." I said firmly.

Karl furrowed his brows. While Klem rubbed his forehead, watching our emotional drama.

Tears fell down from Pier's eyes. Well that break my heart a little.

Karl's eyes widen, for a second he didn't know what to do. He soon realized that he messed it up. He then clenched his fists and took a step forward.

"Pier let's go." He said flatly.

I held my breath. I don't know what she will do. But if she choose to leave... I swear I would never talk to her again.

"I'm not going." Pier wiped away her tears fiercely and looked right at Karl as if she made up her mind for something.

"Pier?"

"I am not coming with you. Not unless YOU apologize to young master."

Karl gave her a look.

"What! You don't want to apologize? Fine.. then leave." Pier said firmly.

"..." I was speechless but feeling happy and a little satisfied.

"Pier come with me." Karl held out his hand towards her. But she didn't hold it. Something moved inside Karl's dark eyes. Is he scared?

"...Vin was right all along. Why would I blame myself for everything! Why would I say sorry? Because It's you... It's your damn fault that he got hurt. How dare you hurt him!" Suddenly she raised her voice and stand in front of him.

Pier looked both sad and angry which make her even more dangerous. After all she was my freaking psychiatrist, and that wasn't an easy job at all. Believe me on this, it's not pretty when SHE gets angry, everyone knows that. That's why Klem was on alert; ready to take action if needed.

Katl was wavering. It's the first time that my manipulative cousin didn't seems to know how to react.

"The time when I was with him I protected him with my own life ... How dare YOU hurt him in front of my damn eyes!?" Pier pointed at Karl's chest. "It's your fault that he doesn't want me anymore. I lost my bloody importance because of you." Her pride got hurt. Tears fell down from her eyes.

Sigh!

That's my cue to walk in.

I stood up from my bed. Because she's getting it all wrong, I didn't mean it that way. I was just being dramatic.

But I really hate it when she takes all the blame, and apologize for things that she didn't done. I hate it when she has to ask for my cousin's permission for literally everything.

When I accepted her resignation the only thing I want was.. her to be happy, but this is not being happy when you have to ask for someone else's permission to make a decision for yourself. That's pathetic in my eyes.

It's not like I mind my cousin's presence in my house or something. But I really wanted him to understand that he don't own Pier, no one does.

We had different natures and styles..and literally every other thing that comes to my mind. He freaking walk around with a screwdriver, well I am not any better... I myself got a screw loose. That's why I had a personal psychiatrist in the first place.

But we had only one thing in common... We both love Pierrete and care about her with all our might.

But at the moment our favorite girl is sobbing and crying because of our stubbornness.

Now I have to act mature and handle this gawky situation because I'm the elder one here. Tsk!

I wiped Pier's tears with my hand. She was giving me puppy eyes. Cute! But Eeewwww!

"Enough of tears. Look I'm fine now. It doesn't hurt anymore." I show her my ugly looking hand and smile a little.

Frankly speaking I lied to her shamelessly, in reality my hand hurts like crazy and I wanted to cry too. She looked confused so I had to speak some more...

"I don't want his apology, it's not like his sorry works like pain killers and heal my beautiful hand or something.." I utter in annoyance.

"You are not mad anymore..." She asked in asmall voice.

"Hah! Anger gave me headache." I held my head high. Everyone was staring at me.

Karl gave me a quiet look that I 'know' how to comprehend but I won't.

"Ahem Master Klement? Doctor is here." Rob said, knocking at the door. I didn't hear his footsteps, strange. I narrowed my eyes at him but then choose to ignore.

"Okay. Pier? Go wash your face and both of you... Let's go downstairs and get your hands treated." Klem ordered everyone and went for the door.

As soon as he step outside he halted.

What's going on?

She quietly went for my bathroom. Then Karl followed Klem outside, but like my brother he also stopped looking at something.

Well now I'm curious...

As soon as I walk out..

"..."

What the hell!

Outside my room I saw 'everyone' one eavesdropping.

On the left side Ken was leaning on the wall while Jane was looking down, slightly flushed in embarrassed.

On the right side Jawn, Rob and Paul was standing. Pretending to be admiring ceilings and carpet. Bloody idiots!

So that's why I didn't heard Rob's coming because this nerd never really left.

Klen rubbed his forehead watching everyone, Karl raised an eyebrow and I placed my hand on my waist while tapping my foot on floor.

Jawn and my guards started grinning at us while hiding their embarrassment. It was expected from Jawn but my guards too!

One thing for sure they can't work as an undercover spy, they would be captured in no time and tortured to death.

Bunch of useless coconuts!

"Everyone.... downstairs... Now." Klem deep voice broke the silence.

In the blink of an eye everyone disappeared, except me and Karl. I was waiting for Pier and I'm sure he's doing the same.

I sat on the couch cross-legged, and he just leaned on the wall playing with his family ring.

Minute never felt so long.. now I'm feeling awkward.

"Did you really meant was you said earlier?" Karl broke the silence, giving me a mini heart attack.

Don't get me wrong, I am not scared of him or anything.. but he always carry a freaking pocket knife. Plus we are alone at the moment. Even though he's my cousin I won't trust him with my life.

I just looked at him hiding my true self. I don't think it's really necessary to answer him. Right?

"What are you talking about?" I played dumb.

"You can't fool me... You know that, don't you?" He said while..... Smiling?

I took a deep breath. And sat properly with my spine straight.

"Pier can give her life for BOTH of us. But I wonder... if we killed each other out of our petty ill will.... What do you think she would do? Where would she go?" I murmur lightly, mostly to myself.

Karl was silent for a solid minute, thinking something.

"You was never going to let her go... You was just putting on a show.." He stated finally.

"What do you think?" I tried not to smile, but my eyes gave away a little.

"You made her cry on purpose." He speaks out his mind and narrowed his eyes on me.

"Well you hurt me first." I smirked at him with satisfaction.

He just looked at me, eyes widened. Then he laughed.

That was a genuine laugh, I can tell.

"I hate you crazy brother." He said grinning.

"I hate you more psycho cousin." I winked at him.

"And I hate you both." We turned together to look at Pier. "Why didn't you both leave first?" She asked.

"We were waiting for you." Karo and I said at the same time.

She looked at us then smile.

Yeah her emotional state is stable now.

"Let's go then." She said. Karl took a step forward.

"Hey Pier help me up."

She came to support me, placing my arm on her shoulder and placed her one hand on my waist.

"Your legs are fine.." Karl gritted his teeth to see his beloved supporting me

"Shut up and come here... I'm feeling dizzy.." Before Karl could even react I reached out to grab his arm and placed my other arm on his shoulder.

"...are you out of your mind... leg go.." He was a little surprise. Haha.

In the end they both had to carry me, because I heavily leaned on them. Well this weird couple deserves this.

"When I said I felt dizzy.. I was not lying. I haven't eaten anything the whole day. Just don't freak out if I fainted or something." I mumble.

Then they both carry me downstairs without complaining.

.

.

After examining my hand, doctor put a bandage to reduce swelling, restrict movement, and provide support to the muscles and joints.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I glare at Karl who obviously doesn't feel any remorse, if anything he looked quite satisfied watching his 'masterpiece' covered in bandages.

Bloody sadist!

"Come Karl it's your turn." Jawn said excitedly.

Doctor's eyes widened when he saw a red bite wound on his wrist. Everyone was trying hard to hold back their laughs. Pier looked at her hands feeling a bit sheepish, wanting to hide away from the world.

"Will you give him a tetanus shot?" Klem asked thoughtfully.

"He's not bitten by a dog, idiot." Jawn replied idiotically, and give aside glance to Pier.

Hearing this that stupid doctor raised his head to look at Karl's expressionless face.

She kept shifting her weight from side to side, hiding her embarrassment.

"Yes Mr. Klement he needs a tetanus shot." That Doctor was more dense than I thought.

Klem clenched his jaw and tilt his face sideways. While on the other hand Jawn slapped his thigh and burst out laughing. Pier's face turned red like tomato.

From the corner of my eye I saw Ken was grinning, on his right side Jane was giggling without making any sound. Rob and Paul bowed down while clenching their fists. If it wasn't for Karl they would also be laughing hard at Pier.

Karl ended up getting the TT shot, and a little bandage on his wrist.

"Anyone else got hurt!?" Klem asked looking at everyone, as if he was seeking another candidate for treatment. "Pier? Jawn?" They shook their heads. "That's it doctor. Thank you!" He gave his professional smile.

"Wait doctor! There's one more person you need to check." Karl said in his chilled voice.

"Who?" Klen asked while looking at everyone.

"Come here Ken." Karl gave his seat.

"I'm not hurt." Ken replied shortly.

"Doctor can you check his feet. Maybe he broke his toe or something." Karl said smiling.

Jane's eyes widen in shock. Ken ignored everyone and turned to leave arrogantly.

"Hey Ken come back here!" I shouted at his back. How can I left my little brother untreated!

Klem took two long strides and grab our youngest by his arm. Ken was forced to sit on the chair in front of doctor.

Karl was right, Ken's toenail was hurt and turned bluish purple. Everyone leaned forward to look at his foot.

Doctor gave him painkillers, and tell him not to wear sneakers or shoes for a week or two. Ken kept rolling his eyes.

After treating everyone doctor left the room with Paul.

"Hey Jawn your nose is bleeding." I shouted looking at his stupid face.

At the speed of lightening Kpem turned to look at his face, then grab his hand and ran out of the room calling 'DOCTOR!!!'

Everything happened so fast that we didn't even got the time to react.

In the end Jawn end up with cotton balls in his nose. He looked funny. But no one dared to laugh because he almost choked his best friend Klem for laughing at him.

I don't know why but in every few seconds I kept glancing at his stupid face as if there's nothing else worth watching in the whole damn room.

As soon as I saw his face I started laughing hysterically for who know how many timeth.

"What are you laughing about huh!! It all happened because of you!! You damn crazy weasel!!" Jawn dashed forward to kick me. Obviously I ran for my precious life. It took three people to stop him.

Phew!

I'm saved.

But suddenly room starts spinning, my eyelids became heavy.. my vision blurry...

"VIN!!!" Someone shouted but the noises are fading away...

Soon my legs gave up and then everything became dark.....
