Andrew's POV
"Ow.." I touch the corner of my lips. I think it may form a bruise on my lips tomorrow. Dammit, that old man. But I also know it was my own fault to suddenly kiss her like that in front of her house. I was too careless.
But who was that guy?
"Master, shouldn't you be more careful? Your body is not made of steel, master. You clearly just a human, you don't need to be a superman."
"Just one day Gonzales, only one day..can't you stop your annoying nags?" I said and turned my head to my table. Like usual, he already prepares my medicine and a file with it.
Even though he likes to nag me, he still does his job efficiently. It just that his tongue is sharper that makes him a little too annoying.
I took the file and flipped open. The details about the man who I was curious about. I read about the profile, and I smirk a little. So, he was my girlfriend's little brother, Linwei.
Not biologically, because Xun Lin took him when he was just born. The real baby dies after his wife went through the surgery, but because he doesn't want to make his wife upset, he took an orphan child who also just born at the same time as his wife.
This is very classified information that no one knows. But, because I had a reliable shadow behind me, no one can stop me from getting the information that I wanted.
After I read it, I put it aside and took the pills before I swallowed it. I tilt my head a little when I remember that guy's expression. He looks furious like he seeing his girl being kissed by an outsider.
Wait, did he…develop any feeling for my girlfriend?? I scrunched my eyebrow with those thoughts. No way, right? He grew up with his sister since he's baby, there's no way that guy knew that he's not a real son of Xun Lin and his wife. Am I just imagining things? I don't know, but I don't like the way that boy interferes with my matter.
"Dammit, now I have another rival. Why would my rival all comes from Sha Sha's house?" I mumble before I took my phone and dialing Sha Sha's number. After a few seconds, there's no answer. I guess she already went to sleep.
I went to bed and closed my eyes. The medicine I took work faster than I thought. As I still in my half-awake condition, I saw a shadow who was just helping me to cover my body with my quilt and turn off my light.
That's right. That's my shadow's job to look after me. I am still thankful for Gonzales' hard work to take care of me for years now. I wonder…If I'm gone one day, will he finally able to take care of himself instead of taking care of me?
…
The next day,
I'm leaning my back on my car while looking at the sky. It seems like it's gonna raining today. Like always, I wait for my Sha Sha to walk out of the lobby.
But today I am a bit dumbfounded when I saw she walk out of the lobby with that boy from last night—that boy wearing a sweater and bring a helmet with him.
"Morning, sweetheart," I said as I walk to them. I saw their father also walk out of the lobby. He looks at us and sighs. I smiled.
"Morning, Sir," I said, and he just ignores it. Well, that's okay. At least he didn't beat me up again like last time.
Looking back at my girlfriend, I extended my hand to her. As she wants to hold mine, her hand was suddenly grabbed by that boy.
"Linwei, what are you doing?" I heard Sha Sha ask the boy as I also look at him. Curious about his odd behavior.
"You're going to be late if we are still standing here. Come on, I send you-"
"Wait." I stop the boy and stare at him. I seriously don't like him, and this is the first time I don't like someone. Em, no...I think I don't like the entire family except for my girlfriend.
Ah~ what to do. I love her, so I have to deal with them no matter what.
"She's going with me," I said, and I took Sha Sha's hand from his grasp. I then look at Sha Sha and smile at her, "Let's go, sweetheart."
As we only move three-step, the boy once again blocks my way. "I'm her brother, so I have to make sure my sister safely arrives. You, as an outsider should step aside and don't provoke me further or I-"
He stops his word when it's suddenly drizzling. I take off my jacket and cover Sha Sha's head before I look at that boy, "You want to take care of her? Then, buy a car first."
I pulled Sha Sha's hand and went to my car before I open the door for her. I saw that boy look mad when I said those words. Well, maybe today I can make him shut up, but I'm not sure if my reason is still valid tomorrow.
Anyway, I thank god for giving us the drizzling rain early in the morning.
I drove the car out of the apartment complex. It took five minutes before Sha Sha starts to talk to me.
"Mmm..I'm sorry about what my little brother did to you yesterday. He didn't know about us."
I shake my head. Of course, I didn't blame her. I blame that boy for disrupting us. Insolent.
"No, I am the one who should say sorry to you. I kinda force you-" I stop my word.
"No, you're not wrong. It just…" I turn my head to her. I should hit my head so that I can stop fantasizing about her in my arm. My feeling toward her was so strong that I can't control it.
I saw she's blushed and avert her eyes to the dashboard. "You should give me a hint. We could do it in a safe place." I unknowingly smile to hear those words.
I caress her cheek and says, "noted." as I stop at the traffic light, a motorcycle also stop at my car side. I think I kinda familiar with that sweater pattern. When I look at the one who rides the motorcycle, I almost scoffed out loud.
This brat is seriously had a sister complex. Well, I could feel it. And that makes me uneasy. As the traffic light change green, I drove my car and not telling Sha Sha that his little brother was tailing us.
After I send her, I make a stop at the side road. And as I expected, that boy also parks his motorcycle beside my car and takes off his helmet.
It seems like we both have to talk.
"What do you want?" I asked as I lean on my car's bonnet. I look at the boy who also had quite a masculine face. But, I'm sure I'm more handsome than him.
"Stay away from my sister," he said it straightforwardly. Since he already is so straight forward. I guess I shouldn't hold my word to.
"Why? And who are you to want to stop me?"
I saw he clenching his jaw. Did my instinct about him last night is right?
"She's not in your league! She's so pure, and you'd only tainted her with your ugly behavior. Someone like you don't deserve her!"
I frowned at his comment. "And who do you think would deserve her better? You?" I raise my eyebrow to see his reaction.
And just as I thought, he flinched his body. He looks a little anxious like I shoot it right at the point.
"What- what are you talking about? I'm her brother. How would I-"
"Don't lie to me, I saw your reaction just now. Heh.." I smirked and said again. "I am a man. I know just by looking at your face, that reaction is not someone who called 'brother' would react."
He was silent but glaring at me like he wants to kill me. Interesting.
"So, I assume you know that you both are not related by blood." again, I tested him, and I can confirm that what I'm most afraid of now is going to happen.
"Fuck, don't try to spurt nonsense here!"
"Listen, boy. I don't fucking care about you. I love your sister, and I want her. Do you understand my language or you need me to tell you in your mother language?" yeah, I'm rude. But who cares? My reputation is already bad.
Just why not be the bad boy, right?
"You won't succeed. She respects our father, and you think my dad would let her marry you? Dream on, punk."
I chuckle. He really just a boy. "And you think your father would let you marry her? Between me and you, boy…the choice is too obvious. As I said, you should grow up. You were just like a little boy who keeps asking candy from your parents. Hey, aren't you ashamed? To have feelings for your own sister…" I scoffed and went back to my car.
I admit I learned it from Gonzales. Hurting people using tongue rather than my physical. Gosh…I am really a bad guy, huh?
