“What’re you looking at”. Axton’s voice wakes up Megan up from her crazy imagination.
Megan gasps realizing she’s was being delusional right now.
“You have taken your useless wig right, so just leave”. Axton said.
Megan clears her throat.
“You didn’t say anything to me earlier”.
“Anything like what”. Axton asked
Megan scratch her hair, taking her eyes sideways.
“Something like….asking me to….twerk for you again”. Megan, and she regretted asking such a question.
“And why will I ask you to twerk, when that clearly didn’t move me”.
*I must be going crazy to think you will ask that from me*. Megan said inwardly.
“Ain’t you leaving”. Axton asked again.
Megan looks at him.
“Am leaving, you don’t have to remind me about that”. Megan halfyells at him and angrily leaves.
Axton sighs.
“Why am I being so soft towards her, she talks to me anyhow she wants, goes in and come out from my suite anyhow she likes, and yet I still allow her to breathe”. Axton said to himself.
He sits in the couch, lighting up a cigarette afterwards.
He brought out his necklace from his inner clothes, he sighs and slowly began caressing the pendent of the necklace.
“Here you go brother”. Sofia’s voice said wearing him the necklace.
“What this for Sofia”. Axton said looking at the half heart pendent in the necklace.
“Is for you”. Sofia voice said smiling.
“Why’re you giving this to me”.
“Cause is a matching necklace, your wearing half of a heart, and am wearing the other half, and when is joined together, it becomes a complete heart”.
The Axton then smiles.
“Only couples do this kind of crazy stuffs”. Axton said trying to take off the necklace, but Sofia slap his off with a frown.
“And who said only couples are the only ones who can wear this kind of stuffs, we’re siblings made of one heart, is not a bad thing if we wear matching necklaces right…I save up alot of money to get this necklace and your just going to throw it away”. Sofia said with a frown.
Axton smiles and wrapped his hand around Sofia’s shoulder.
“I wasn’t planning on doing that”.
“So what were you about to do earlier”.
“I…sorry”. He said caressing her face.
“Promise me you won’t ever take off that necklace, that’s the only way, I’ll be able to know you, if peradventure we get seperated”.
“And why are we going to get seperated, we’re stick together for Life”.
“You never can tell brother…..Dad is a cop, a righteous cop, who can’t stand injustice, am just thinking that his love to fight for crimes, might affect us one-day”.
“Your only eight years ago Sofia, stop thinking about negative things”.
“Am just having these hunch, I wish Dad can resigned from being a righteous cop and go into pastry chef…. but anyways you should never take off that necklace ok, I won’t take off mine either, promise me you won’t”.
Axton smiles.
“Fine I won’t, but if peradventure, just like your hunch, we get seperated, there’s no way am going to forget your face”.
“Really, you won’t”. Sofia asked.
And Axton nods.
“Yes, I won’t ever forget the face of my beautiful Princess”. Axton said tickling her.
And Sofia laughs.
“But what if you by chance forget about what I used to look like, people’s faces do change you know”.
“Hmmmmm, if that happens, and I get to find out later that your my sister, slap me still you get tired”.
“Are you sure about that, am really going to slap you, you ain’t the type who memorizes people’s faces”.
Axton poked her nose.
“We’re never going to get seperated Sofia, so stop imagining such, we’ll always be together”.
Sofia smiles and hugs him.
“I love you so much brother”.
Axton caress her hair.
“I love you too Sofia”.
Axton sighs and place back the necklace in his inner clothes.
“I miss you so much Sofia….I wish you had not die, how I wish I was able to save you that day”.
“You were right, dad’s Job as a cop indeed seperated us”. He muttered.
But no matter how sad he was, it never showed in his face.
The feeling of showing a face of happiness or emotions, died alongside on the day he lost both his dad and sister.
*****
Megan falls to the bed, she looks at Freya and she was already sleeping.
Since both decided to help each other out, Freya came back to her room.
“I still have to help her get closer to Ace, even if what I planned didn’t work out…..but wait Megan…”
She said sitting up in the bed.
“Where you crazy earlier, why will you imagine Mr Non Living Thing, asking you to twerk for him, your the one getting him seduce, so you should think straight ok”. Megan said tapping her chest.
She felt the necklace in her inner clothes, and she brought it out.
She caress the pendent and smiles.
“I really miss you so much Miguel, so many years has passed and am sure you must have forgotten about what I use to look like, well just like you said, your princess grew up into a beautiful, smart and courageous girl”.
Megan smiles and sighs.
“I wish to see you someday”.
“Can you please love me Ace”. Freya muttered in her sleep.
Megan looks at her and chuckles.
“She’s calling his name even in her sleep, she must really love him….well I can’t blame her, Ace is so handsome, maybe not as handsome as Mr Non….”
Megan stops halfway and slaps herself.
“Stop jabbing bullSh|ts Megan, Mr Non Living Thing is not handsome”.
She said assuring herself.
She looks at her necklace again and smiles.
“Am going to find you, and that’s for sure”. She kiss the pendent smiling.
She lay back on the bed, humming a song.
