MIGRAINE

It was at midnight when Ethan finally reached home. He parked his car in the garage and instantly strode in. As expected no one was in sight and everyone might have gone to bed already.

He sighed, he massaged his forehead gently. He has been really stressed out today due to attending various meetings since his father was busy, so he had to take his place.

He was having a huge headache and he needed some pain killers, so he decided to go freshen up first then check for the drugs he could take to help subside the headache.

Without wasting time, Ethan made his way upstairs and into his room. He stripped and immediately headed for the bathroom.

The cold shower came straining down his body, calming his nerves and making him feel a little better.

After exact ten minutes he was done with his long shower. He strapped his towel around his waist and made his way out of the bathroom with a smaller one in his hand wiping his hair.

Upon walking to his walk-in closet to get his pyjamas, Before he could open the door a knock interrupted him.

Inwardly he wondered on who it could be by this hour. His Mom?, he knew she can't possibly be the one atleast by this time of the night. His Dad? But he isn't back from the office yet.

The knock echoed again seizing his thoughts. He gave a look down to his appearance. He was still in his towel. He sighed before going over to the door. The moment he pushed it open, his expression instantly turn stilled.

Kamlyn was in her room after dinner, after taking the ice cream Axel got for her she quickly rush to take a shower so she can go to bed since it is late already, past midnight to be precise.

She was already done with her bath, clothing and everything else when she heard a sound from outside. She ran to her window to get a peek and she saw a car driving into the residence. She thought it was maybe Louis because she couldn't see it clear because of the bright lighting it released, coupled with the darkness.

Kamlyn strolled back to her bed and sat, she was thinking if she should go and greet him since she plans to make everything easy for everyone and especially herself. She should start with interacting with everyone first.

After debating on what to do with her mind, she decided to come down and greet him. But she was still unsure if she should or shouldn't. A part of her mind kept whispering for her to go back but another side insisted she move on, after all she has already gone this far, Mid way the steps so why don't she just continue.

This was a tough one for her. It isn't easy breaking off from one's shell.

Familiar footsteps echoed in her ear and her eyes widen. 'If I'm not mistaken then this is.... Brother Ethan.' Warning bells immediately rang in her head as she saw his silhouette entering into the mansion. She immediately moved back and hid behind a pillar, staring at him from there.

She saw him stop for Time and looked around. She thought maybe he saw her. But he continued going towards the staircase.

She could tell from his expression and the way he kept rubbing his forehead that he had a terrible migraine. She watched him till he disappeared from her sight.

Something popped up in her mind and she immediately shook her head sideways breaking off such ideas. But again thinking of he looked earlier she felt bad. She turned around and left.

Not knowing how she got here with a tray containing pain killers and a glass of water in her hands. She breathed in and then out, she managed the tray with her other hand and made a knock. Seconds passed but nothing happened. She was really finding it hard to stay back and not walk away.

She raised her shaky hands once more and knocked. She knew she was extremely nervous but she couldn't tell why. 'Why am I not like this around Brother Axel?' She asked herself.

'I can't do this!' The moment she made up her mind to go back, the door was pulled open. She wasn't expecting what she was seeing. Then and there she knew it was a mistake coming here. 'I shouldn't have listened to my mind.'
